This was a really hard decision for me to make - I tried on a bunch and that's how I ultimately decided which to buy. Some that looked really comfortable on the hanger were anything but, and vice versa.
Having said that, I just bought my second Medela night bra today. It's great for wearing around the house. It's easy to lift up and out of the way. And it's comfortable with the nursing pads. Not sure it gives me enough support to wear outside, but I love it for when I'm home. I was a 36D pre-pregnancy and wear the large size now.
I don't know how old your baby is, but if BF is established and you don't have engorgement issues, you could consider a properly fitted underwire. I am still annoyed at how long it took me to get one for my 36F post-partum chest. I finally did at 6 months pp, and never had a single clogged duct or mastitis (I still wear underwires all the time when I'm out of the house).
My favorite underwire nursing bra is the Anita #5068. Nothing fancy or glamorous, but it puts the girls exactly where they belong (on me at least). I have never found a softcup bra that separates them properly.
