Natural Birth

Not natural birth related. (Maternity Bras)

Okay ladies, sorry for asking this on the natural birth page, but my "birth month" message board is full of some really rude people and I'd rather not get on and ask them... you guys are much nicer :)

Pre-Pregnancy I wore a 32DDD. Now that I'm pregnant my boobs have gotten SO MUCH BIGGER and my milk hasn't even come in. Before I got pregnant I had to special order all of my bras. Do you think I'll have to special order maternity ones too? My rib cage is probably about a 34 now, but I definitely can't find a bra that fits from a department store.

  • brastop.com has a sale right now - they're in the UK, but the prices are so good and the shipping so reasonable it was the cheapest option for me. It's hard to say where you'll end up size wise, so just buy one or two and use band extenders if you cup size isn't up yet (you can get those at maternity stores or even Walmart). Buy nursing bras if they're the same-ish price... hard to say what you'll be, but your size will change if you nurse for a few months, too.

  • I'm most worried about the large cup size in proportion to my small rib cage. I checked on Motherhood Maternity's website and they don't even make my cup size pre pregnancy.

  • I had to go to a breastfeeding resource center to try some on. All of the ones they carried there they also carry on barenecessities.com - btw I'm a 34H and had to buy one of them in a 34I - look up the Anita 5052 that is white and has little white flowers on it-so comfortable - hope this helps-usually with your first order they will send you a 20-30% off coupon so maybe order one then order another one with that coupon.
  • I just bought a 32E off brastop and it was one of the smaller sizes. You'll likely have to buy online, but break out a measuring tape and that's fine. It's way cheaper to order online anyway.

    I did buy a 34 E from Motherhood, though.
  • We had a similar question on my bmb a lil while back. Here's the link But if you don't want to read through it it seemed several ladies mentioned bravada online or nordstums and dillards for stores.
