Any recs for a decent nursing bra for someone with biiiig boobs? (40 DD/aka E ) Right now I have 3 Target nursing tanks, which are meh, because they tend to roll up at the bottom, and a regular bra from Motherhood, that ends up doing something weird to my boobs, where half of it breaks out between the ‘frame’ part, and the ‘flap’ part, so that I have like, double cleavage. Not Cool.
Moxie’s got a huge post up at her site, with a couple of online stores listed: http://moxie.blogs.com/askmoxie/2006/04/qa_nursing_bras.html
I’m big breasted…I wore one of these from Motherwear:

Pricey, but worth it!!!
Uh, yeah. I guess you wouldn’t really expect any advice from me… complete opposite problem here.
I was 34 E when nursing, smaller now. But anyway, the Medela nursing bras are worth every penny, even though there are a lot of pennies in their price. I had 3…white, beige and black, and they were each washed about a million times and stood up well to the challenge.

Why did that show up 3 times? Sorry, Gretchen.
Two words: Decent Exposures. Each one is custom-made to your exact measurements, and once you’ve worn one, any other brand feels like it’s made of barbed wire.

I was 38F and got the BASIC nursing bra at Motherhood, the cheap one. I LOVED it (well…as much as one can love an insanely utilitarian bra). I bought it first to breastfeed Libby and actually wore them all through my Marvey pregnancy. They were very comfortable, stretchy enough to not bind, but had enough “umpfh” not to make me baggie boobs by the end of the day.
Another nursing 38F here, and I love love love the Anita 5062:
