Where are you planning on buying them?  I am a 38 D b4 pg so not sure where I can buy them that will fit comfortably w/out breaking the bank! Have 2 nursing sport bras I wear now b/c I grew some (not as much as I thought I would though - at least not yet!)...bought them at motherhood maternity section on sale at BRU.

    I would stick with some kind of sports nursing bra at first. I will take a week or two for you to get to your biggest. At that point I would go get fitted somewhere and then buy in store or order online.

     Yes

    Target has a couple of nursing bras that look pretty forgiving in terms of size - they are sort of sports-bra style.  I'm planning to get one or two of those for the hospital and first few days at home, then get some "sturdier" ones once my milk is in.

    I'd wait till your milk comes in to spend any more money.  The 2 you have should be enough for the first few days, then see how they grow.

    I bought mine at a MM outlet last pregnancy. Hopefully they'll work for me this round too.

    I don't have many options where I live so I'll just get them from the maternity clothing store.  Big department stores dont really have maternity/nursing stuff at all here!

    I would buy in stages. I lived in sleep bras for a bit until they were at their full size and bought just 2. After nursing was established at about 6-8 weeks they shrink again so you will need to buy again and this time they will stay about that size until you wean. 

    I was window shopping nursing bras when I was buying a few last weekend. I hated the ones I bought last time they were like being bandaged. I was happy to see at JcPenney they had some cute ones bras that looked normal. They recommend you don't do under wire because they can cause a clogged ducts. I did buy one for when I need to wear something where I needed a lift. I have large boobs so that might be part of it.
