Crossover bras for easy nursing?

post #1 of 9
Thread Starter 
I am looking for some simple and comfortable crossover style bras that would work for nursing. I typically don't use nursing bras past six months or so and have used soft cup bras after that I can just pull aside. I dont need a lot of support, since I go down to an A (right now I'm an A/B). Something quality that will last would be nice.

I have used them nightly since having DS 5 years ago...the older ones are finally started to lose their elasticity, but I'm a DD cup!

I've got those too, well I just tossed the one's I had from ds 1 (5 yrs ago). Actually they lose they're elasticity whether your an A or a D. Mine were pretty stretched out too.
I need something slightly more supportive than those. Plus I don't really want to go with a sleep bra because most of the straps are really wide and I'd like to be able to wear them with tank tops.

I was wondering about Blue Canoe, but I don't want to spend the $$ unless they are really good quality and won't stretch out.

I bought a racerback crossover style nursing bra from Old Navy a just a few weeks ago, but they seem to have disappeared from their website. Maybe try looking there later, maybe they're just out of stock right now and will come back. I think they would fit your needs and they were only $15.

love those motherhood crossover bras. I have used them in all my pregnancies and bf as well, I usually only buy 1 or 2 nice "nursing bras" for when Im out and about. But even now, pg, they are awesome. They offer support but arnt constrictive at all. I find that they are great for nursing because I can easily slip it out on one side and back in fairly easily/ no fussing with hooks/loops or bra clasps. They wash easily and really comfy knit plus the lacey decorative trim is soft not itchy.

I like the medela sleep bras - they have more support and are smaller than the motherhood ones. I'm a C and I wear them out under tank tops.

I have the medela ones as well!

I also like that the come in nude colour because I wear a lot of light tops. Simply trying to find a nude nursing bra is pretty hard!

I love my crossover nursing bras. It is so easy to feed anywhere at any time. I am a size C by the way - they fit me perfectly and are comfy enough! I love that I don't have to faff about with clips or anything! I just pull aside and food is ready! lol

If you google crossover bra, they do make normal (non bf types! lol) crossover style bras with normal bra straps - that would do the trick just fine too! - Though, these are usually sized. I like to buy non-sized bras at first because you do fluctuate the first few months of bf.

For example - this is a simple crossover bra with thinner straps.
