@DanyTargaryen Yes, that’s the one I like! I ended up settling down to a 36 D/DD postpartum last time and the size Large did well for me. There’s no underwire (which isn’t recommended for BFing anyway) and it was decently supportive and comfy. I wore them at home and nursed in them as well. Over time the padding gets worn from scrunching the flap down to pump and washing, hence me buying a new batch. The old ones I have are usable, but the prices were too good to pass up.
I havent tried anything but the seamless bra, so I can’t speak to how supportive the others or the camis would be, but that one seemed to provide the most “structure” for bigger breasts just by judging by the pictures.
Thanks @Wishilivedinflorida! I'm debating buying one to try out, which unfortunately means by the time I make up my mind on more the sale will probably be over, but I definitely feel like I need more support than what I get from the tanks and nursing bras I already have so maybe I'll give one a shot.

@DanyTargaryen They are on amazon as well and qualify for completion discount if you are going that route as well...not quite as good a price but still better than $38
Thanks @Wishilivedinflorida I was looking for some recs. I am a FTM, so I have zero clue what size...I was going to email with Kindred and see if they had any estimates on sizing, so maybe I could transfer that. So many ladies talk about their boobs growing during pregnancy, mine only have a little bit.

@Lisa113 last time around, mine didn’t grow at all until after my milk came in and even then, I only needed to go up one cup size. It looks like this time around is going to be the same. You’re not alone in that department!
I keep seeing July 16-17 as the speculation and July 16 is my Amazon registry completion discount day so I am getting really excited over here! We really need to decide on a crib and a dresser ASAP!
If anyone's registry completion date is later than Prime Day, you can move up your due date in your registry settings to get your coupon earlier. I moved my due date up 2 weeks last week and my completion date moved up 2 weeks as well.

Target has a coupon going for a $5 gift card with a $20 health care purchase. This includes things like Tucks pads and menstrual pads if anyone is ready to start putting their postpartum kit together.

Grrr!!!! To make matters worse, my shower invites just went out this weekend so people are missing out on getting stuff off my registry at a deal today!
