Post BFing Bras?

After 22 months we have recently wrapped up bfing! I feel liberated to no longer be wearing nursing bras but discovered the pre-pregnancy stuff just isn't going to cut it anymore either! I've never been one for bra shopping and had worn the same brand for years so I'm at a loss as to where to start to look for new bras or even what size I am! I know there are charts out there and how to's but I think I may need more help then that!

Does anyone know which stores offer bra fittings?

I know VS does but have read a few not so positive things about them. The more economical the store the better but I realize it's usually the more expensive stores that offer this service!!

 Thanks!

    La Senza does bra measurements as well. I've always had issues measuring myself as I would measure me as a 38 and they came up with a 36 instead. However most of their bras are padded with wires.

    It's not like your obligated to purchase anything to get measured. 

    "What are you having?" "Well the radiologist says its a healthy little human baby. I'm a little disappointed, because I really wanted a puppy." LOL

    Nordstrom does bra fitting, I've heard a lot of compliments about them. Also they are having semi-annual sale right now.

    Intimacy does fittings and their stuff is great. Not the cheapest bras, but is that something you really want to skimp on?  Think about how much you wear it and break the price down that way.

    Don't go to Victoria Secret! They don't measure as correctly... I recommend Nordstroms. They do a nice job measuring and you can buy expensive bras there in a huge variety of sizes.

    Yes at vs you don't know if you will get a pro or a newbie. Not worth the time. But Nordstrom is the way to go. LOVE getting fitted there. They are professional and know there stuff.
    Plus the bras are well worth the money. I would get fitted at nordstrom but If you have a Nordstrom rack the bras are cheaper.

    Dillard's does bra fittings and has reasonable prices.

    You would rather get a couple of more expensive bras that fit well than a bunch of cheapies that are are going to wear out in a month.  You be look and feel so much better!

    Looks like Nordstrom is a winner! I even have access to a Rack although not sure if I can get a fitting there? I'll ask when I'm there in the morning I guess.

    I am as cheap as they come so thanks for the reminder that sometimes it's better to spend a little to get quality!
