So am I just never going to wear a “normal bra” again until I’m done?

[%D7%A0%D7%95%D7%A6%D7%A8%D7%99]

@mjm13 This is what I came to say! Was wearing non underwire bras in a 44DD when nursing my first. Found r/abrathatfits and did their calculator - I was actually a 36K. Tried the Elomi Molly and it’s the only bra I’ve worn for 3 years, while nursing, then pregnant, then nursing again.

Incidentally, all of my back pain also disappeared.

@mjm13 THANK YOU!!!! But how are they not going to carry a D cup?!? Noooooooooo

 

[traininggrounds]

@cuteness20 Are you positive you’re a D cup? Highly recommend the a bra that fits calculator for this!

Literally wearing this bra right now lol

@traininggrounds I dont know if I am anymore since I havent sized myself in awhile but I was a D cup AFTER doing a bra that fits so its kind of disappointing that they dont have that size?? Are they specifically for larger breasts because it doesnt look like they having anything under an F?

 

[traininggrounds]

@josephjurg Now that I looked at their website elomi is apparently for “full figures”. Totally didn’t realize since I’m in that range, sorry!

@mjm13 Elomi makes great bras for nursing and normal wear! I hate that they've gotten rid of the more basic non-padded non-lace options I've been wearing for 12+ years, but they're still the best option I know for my oversized self!

@mjm13 Yes I love the Molly! It took me some getting used to.. but now that I have I bought a few more so I can wear one everyday

@cuteness20 I’m in the saggy granny bras 99% of the time lol but I bought myself a normal bra with the nursing snaps (from la vie en rose) to hold the girls up if I have somewhere I want to look a bit more put together! My only problem with it is that because the cups are more structured it’s harder to get them out of the baby’s way so actual feeding can be a bit more chaotic but atleast the girls aren’t hanging out with my belly button

@cuteness20 r/abrathatfits

You deserve one

 

[cuteness20]

@isaiahak7 Thank you!!!

@isaiahak7 The most incredible thing to happen on Reddit. They have a sticky with instructions on how to convert bras to nursing bras.

I have been wearing this Freya bra because the band size is correct for me.

@cuteness20 Y'all are wearing bras? Oops lol

 

[katrina2017]

@cuteness20 Kindred braverly has some really good nursing bras that make the girls look like gravity hasn’t TOTALLY won yet

 

[hope013]

@cuteness20 Make sure you have the correct size bra and then underwire shouldn’t be an issue since it won’t be sitting on any breast tissue. You can get your new size from the r/abrathatfits calculator.

I liked the Elomi Molly nursing bra, might be a good fit for your style

 

[leisa_peacock]

@hope013 I have two Elomi nursing bras, and they are both exactly what op is describing. I got them fitted at a local boutique and it was absolutely worth it. It took a couple days to get used to real support again.

@cuteness20 Check out Hot Milk flexiwire bras. I live in the Forever Yours, but there’s several unpadded and lacey styles.

@cuteness20 When I was sure my supply was regulated I began wearing a regular unlined wire bra and was fine. Etam has some great cotton ones that come in bigger sizes and pull away for easy access.

 

[cuteness20]

@blancheer Thank you! Easy pull away is important!

 

[katehunt977]

@blancheer Wait what is pull away??

 

[blancheer]

@katehunt977 Just move the unlined fabric away
