pumping bra you can wear all day as a regular bra

I go back to work next week and I'm trying to figure out my pumping logistics. I have a simple wishes pumping bra which i love but would like something i can wear all day to cut down on the time i have to spend pumping. Any suggestions?

Re: pumping bra you can wear all day as a regular bra

  • I just wear a normal nursing bra and take 2 ponytail holders on each side and hook it to the nursing clasp for hands free pumping: https://kellymom.com/bf/pumpingmoms/pumping/hands-free-pumping/

    I pump while driving to work this way with a nursing cover over me.

  • I've heard the Dairy Fairy bra is amazing. I haven't purchased yet (it's pricey) but I've heard amazing feedback.

  • I use the ponytail holder thing from Kellymom too.  Works great!
  • Omg that pony tail holder trick is genius. I haaaate the medela hands free and struggle with the zipper at least twice a day.

  • I bought normal bra-shaped sports bras and cut a hole in the nipple area. I put the flanges through them when it's time to pump. I can't see a hole or a nipple "bulge" underneath my clothes so I wear them all week. I got a few for under $5 at Walmart. 
  • I stuck mine in my cup flaps too. It worked well.

  • I pumped at work for both kids and just wore a regular nursing bra and used the Pumpease bra over top of it for pumping.  It worked great!

  • thanks i im in the military and have to wear a uniform for work so i was thinking of just cutting a hole in my under shirt so i dont have to take off my top blouse. I might try the sports bra thing, the less clothing removal the better for me cause all the buttons on the top blouse take forever with my carpal tunnel ,i will try the hair tie thing if that doesnt work
