Before the big server crash happened I'd started a thread about where to buy breastfeeding bras for the more ample bust.... just went to look for it now coz I got some great suggestions at the time, but I can't find it, so i guess it was lost. If anyone can point me in the direction of sites where I'm likely to find 10HH/J bras I would be very very very grateful!
P.S. Does anyone else have a stupid size like this? Seriously, none of my bras fit well, it's driving me up the wall recently. I've found myself considering a boob job when I'm done with kids and that's never crossed my mind before.
I use a uk site called figleaves! It's awesome, much cheaper than here and shipping to oz is really reasonable only 5.50gbp!! I just bought 3 Elomi Underwire (soft flexi wire) feeding bras from there for $40!! (Australian) I'm a 14/16h and a shop here wanted to charge me $190 for one bra!!!!!!
Ah thanks ladies. Limey, blest is great, I've used them a couple of times, but I've never heard of heavenly mamma so I'll give it a look-in.
Good call about figleaves Ezy I'll give it a look - they've been emailing me recently to say they have offers. You got a great deal! I've been wondering about trying one of those Eloni, at that price it sounds like a great idea. I think the exchange rate's really helping too.
For future ref for anyone else I found two Australian sites - storm in a d cup and big girls don't cry anymore and I also like the uk site bravissimo. I know there are still some more that others mentioned last time though....
Be aware that Blest has rrreeeaaalllyy slow shipping.
Also that while Hot Milk brand go up to a H or bigger now, I find that their cup sizes run small. Just my personal experience, though.
Best breasfeeding bra I've had (while a G cup) is the Triumph ones...I don't wear them often anymore (usually just for comfort during this pregnancy if I am sore) but I've had them for nearly 2 years with no probs yet.
In fact, almost all my bras are Triumph brand. Pretty good brand, I think.
I noticed that with the Hot Milk ones too, I was an H a while ago and tried one on but there was no way I could've squeezed into it.
I have a couple of triumph ones that I loved but they start from a 12 so no good for me now, although they were great during pregnancy and straight after. I wish they did make smaller back sizes, I would definitely be buying some. I've only got Freya at the moment, and while they're ok, they give me this strange pushed down shape (really attractive as you can imagine!).
I just re-read my post, and it sounds like I got 3 for $40, I'm sorry I should have said each!! Posting tired and in bed not a good idea. They are still cheap compared to anything they have here! I have used Blest and been happy with their postage and what I bought, they have easy returns. Not so easy to send stuff back to the uk, but doable.
I had a good triumph one from Debras, another good site, but was excited to find underwire this time round!!
ezymay - I'm the same size as you, how did you work out what size to buy? I'd love to try the underwire ones! I don't have a tape measure and trying to use dh's metal measuring thingy just isn't working! hahaha!
It is a bit of guess work but they have a size chart on the website with the equivalent sizes. I ended up buying 3 different but similar sizes to see which works best. They all fit ok lol I was happy if they were a bit on the big size cause I'll still grow (horror!!)
Yes I can imagine it would be hard with the metal tape hee hee
