need nursing bra recommendations

Time for some new bras!  I am hoping to stick this BFing thing out until the first year and need some good bras to get me through.  I currently have two that I am not a fan of-one from Target and the other from Motherhood Maternity.  Anyone have any recommendations other than those two stores?  I am a 36D, prefer a soft cup and don't mind spending a decent amount if it's comfortable.  Any recommendations?

    I recommend Medela.  I had bras from Target and Motherhood Maternity and the Medela ones are so much more comfortable.  It pays to have a good bra!

    Elle Macpherson. They're definitely pricier but I used them with DD1 and now DD2. They're soft cup, comfy and even on the (relatively) prettier side. I got mine from Saks.

    I just looked at Saks to see if I could find the ones I have and realized they don't carry as many of the bras anymore.  They have one that I have (I have two styles in 4 different colors), the maternelle.  Here is a tiny url (sorry not clicky but I'm on a mac) to the Saks website for maternelle.

    I also have another style....it may be the spree but I'm not sure.  Either way I really like them.  https://www.ellemacphersonintimates.com/collections/maternity/ 

     

    I also noticed Saks is carrying a nursing bra from Le Mystere.  I've never tried it but it might be worth checking out.  Le Mystere is known for their non-nursing bras.  

     

    Also, I bought one from Gap Body before DD2 was born and it's horrible.  The front doesn't fold down well or easily so I wouldn't recommend it.

    I liked my Bravado ones.

    My faves are Hot Milk and Anita.  I also had a Goddess brand that I did not love.  My own experience was that they lasted a lot longer if they were hand washed -- there's just so much wear and tear on nursing bras with the cup up and cup down etc...  I ended up going through 8 during my nursing/pumping career.
