Is there a difference between a maternity bra and a nursing bra? I've only ever seen ones that say nursing bra. Just something that crossed my mind today.
nursing bras allow for breast feeding access, and maternity bras don't. I think that's it anyway.
Along the lines of bra questions:
Any other large chested ladies out there? I can't find bras that actually fit my now bigger than an E boobs... HELP!
I know that Motherhood Maternity carries F cup bras. I'm not sure if they go higher, but if you have one near you I'd go check it out there.
Regarding the other question, I think "maternity" and "nursing" are used interchangably with bras. All I have found are nursing ones, but it makes sense, because my girls will stay large throughout nursing, so why not go ahead and have the ones that snap open for easy access?
Good luck bra shopping!!

Maternity bras are usually cotton. wearing polyester or anything else can cause nipple.... well, blockage during pregnancy. So almost all maternity bras will be 100% cotton or a cotton blend.

No advice, but I'm in the same boat. I already have pay $70+ dollars for a bra and am holding out as long as possible (not much longer) before I break down and buy a new one. Dreading the hunt, good luck!!

Motherhood has been a godsend for me since I already was quite well endowed and got even larger after I got pregnant. They have a lot of sizes in the store and the salesperson told me that they can order additional sizes online (haven't looked yet). There are super, super comfortable too - especially the sleeping bras!

For all you big chested women -- I can only shop at specialty stores because I'm a 34 GG or H. If possible and there is one near you I'd check there. They'll measure you and are really good about finding shapes of cups and styles that work. I'm not looking forward to getting new bras but when I do, I know I'll be in good hands.

Also...I'm a DDD as well and God knows what I am right now, but I get my bras from Lane Bryant.
