    Bras!

    Ok so have a 2 month old and i have quite big boobs and being 25 i still like to wear things that make me look sexy i guess. Obviously the bras as they get bigger in maternity wear dont look that great and dont allow you to wear nice stuff so would it be bad if i went to underwire bras and still breastfeed?

    underwire can effect milk production
    have you checked out hot milk bras they go to lagersizes..
    there are alot of places that sell pretty bras for bigger women.

    At this early stage I would recommend against an underwire bra, they can affect supply and also I think can also cause lumps or even mastitis, not exactly sure, just know they're not good!
    There are a couple of online maternity bra stores such as hot milk etc that are really good and have some gorgeous stuff, a little on the expensive side, but as I said, really good quality.
    Hope this helps

    one i can recommend against is the elle macpherson la mere maternity - looks lovely but is so useless in biggers sizes - everytime you bend over you fall out!

    good luck finding nice stuff - there are a few good sites online, storm in a d cup, blestbras, big girls don't cry - just google :-)

    Hotmilk have gorgeous bras. The ABA shop, Mothers Direct sell them as well as others and have a really good range in the larger sizes. They have shops in Melbourne and Brissy and an online store also.
