    I'm definitely not saying you should ignore the advice above, but just so you know, I didn't know about the "no underwire during pregnancy" thing and wore mine every day during both pregnancies right up to the end. It was OK. I have heard that it is even more important to avoid underwire when you are nursing. I did do that. (and couldn't wait to get back to my regular bras when I was done! )
    BTW - I've also read that wearing a sports bra regularly is not healthy for your breasts in general, because it compresses them and does not allow for proper lymph fluid drainage. Don't know how much truth there is to that, but sports bras definitely do compress!
    Good luck finding a comfy, supportive bra!

    I went to Target on the weekend to buy a wirefree bra. They have a section medium support wireless and firm support wireless. I got one from the medium support and think it is fantastic. The sections made it very easy.
