Best Nursing Bra?

[emilyash]

Which are your favorites? I know everyone is shaped differently, but I'm curious which ones you can't live without?

I'm trying to find one that's supportive and looks good (under clothes, at least), gives lift, maybe padded (or not?? pros? cons?)?

I suspect I'll be in a DD since I'm a D right now (was a B/C before baby#1, and expecting #2 in 6 weeks, #1 is still (dry) nursing).

Thanks!

I think I've owned at least 5 or 6 totally inadequate nursing bras in my life. With DD1, I muddled through with crappy ones for a bit, then just went back to regular bras. This time, I bought a Bravado Body Silk bra, and I'm surprised at how much I like it, especially considering it doesn't have underwire. I struggle with fit because I'm a larger size (36 or 38D), but have narrow shoulders, so a lot of bra straps slide off. Oh, and it has removable pads, which is pretty cool, especially in the leaky early weeks. It was totally worth the money.

I second the vote for Bravado's Body Silk bra! Totally worth the $. There are many I haven't tried, but of the one's I have this is my favorite. I also like Bravado's microfiber Lifestyle bra, but they are discontinuing it. . .you may be able to find it on sale though b/c of this. I like this one b/c it is the most like a "real" bra without having underwire (which I can't stand while nursing). It works even under lower cut shirts (unlike the body silk). But the body silk wins every time for comfort.
