A great sleep bra

I wear a size 40DD nursing bra and I purchased this bra in size XL. It really is very comfortable: it doesn't bind the fabric breathes and the shoulder straps don't cut into my shoulders. However the stretchiness of the fabric makes this a rather loose-fitting bra; I probably could have gone with the large size instead of extra-large. I would certainly never wear this bra while exercising! I've found it's best as a sleeper bra. It holds nursing pads in very well even when lying down and rolling over repeatedly and it's the most comfortable bra I own to sleep in. Buy something with more support for during the day but use this one at night.More detail ...

A good belly band

I got this band in hopes of shrinking my tummy after my third child. The sizing seems a bit difficult to me. I was a size 12 pants prior to pregnancy gained 24 lbs and had lost all 24 in the first week. I bought a size Medium and it fits perfectly. It does work to help shrink your belly but I had problems with it folding over and scrunching up in the middle. It does not wear well under clothes as you can see where the band over laps and velcros. I only wore it a few hours a day and was back into my prepregnancy pants 2 weeks after delivery faster than with my other pregnancies.More detail ...

These bands save $$ on buying transitional pants

These are a must-have for anyone looking to save money on maternity clothes. I work at a school and wear dress pants or khakis each day and didn't want to buy a whole new wardrobe. I wear all my pants completely unbuttoned and unzipped and nobody can tell because the bands hide my skin and hold my pants up. I wear mine almost every day - under sweaters collared shirts etc. I was a size 6-8 pre-preg and the size 2 bands fit well. Just be aware that the bands are very long and you will have to fold them over at first. This isn't a problem unless you wear tighter shirts that show the fold line above your navel.



Follow-up: I wore these belly bands during my pregnancy from months 3-6: while my old clothes were too small and maternity wear was too big. Now that the baby is here and I'm preparing to return to work I'm once again turning to these bands. I've got a little pooch that prevents my pre-preg pants from buttoning and will be using these until I can work off the baby weight. I never had to purchase transitional clothes.More detail ...

Best Sleep Bra for Nursing Moms

The Medela Sleep Bra is by far the most comfortable sleep bra I have purchased and I have purchased many. Unfortunately it is difficult to know what will work best for you without trying every nursing bra out there.



The back is in an easy to wear racerback style with no clasps to mess with or lay on uncomfortably at night when you are trying to sleep. You just pull it over your head to put it on. The cups are draw back style so when you are up in the middle of the night to nurse your little one you don't have to fuss with clasps.



As some reviewers have mentioned the fabric is thin but I like that feature of this bra. It is 95% cotton with 5% spandex for that stretch we all need at times. You can put nursing pads in the cups but I find them uncomfortable so I prefer to go without. If I get a little leakage during the night it dries fairly quickly.



The sizing is on the small side so if you are on a border size I would order up. I'm a 38B and purchased the Medium at first. This one seemed too small. I exchanged for a Large and I'm much happier. In fact I would say it is perfect. The manufacturers sizing chart isn't currently available on this page so I'll list it here.



32-34 A B & C = Small

36-38B 36C 32-34D 34DD = Medium

40B 3-40C 36-38D 36DD = Large

42B 42C 40D 38-40DD = Extra LargeMore detail ...

Worth Every Penny!

I received shrinkx as a gift at one of my baby showers. I was VERY skeptical about their claims of "shrinking" your hips back down to their pre-pregnancy size or even smaller. I measured my hips before getting pregnant and then right before I had the baby and my hips had expanded 3 inches! I started wearing shrinkx 1 week after giving birth and 3 weeks later I was back into my pre-pregnancy jeans. Currently my hips are back to their normal size and are actually a 1/2 inch smaller :) This is an awesome product and I highly recommend it!More detail ...

A nursing bra that feels like a real bra!

I have 3 of these nursing bras and absolutely love them! It is next to impossible to find a nursing bra in a 32G let alone one that offers plenty of support has a flattering shape and prevents nipple show-through--even with fitted shirts! After ordering and returning countless others I was so thankful to finally find this one even if it is a bit on the spendy side. The padded flaps are a little awkward at first because they don't fold completely out of the way so I probably wouldn't recommend this as a first nursing bra but once your size stabilizes and you and your little one become nursing pros it is worth the investment. Having worn these bras nearly every day for a year I also appreciate that they look and feel like a real bra.More detail ...

Expensive but worth it for me

This bra is expensive but it was the first bra that really worked for me after trying a Medela a Bravado and 2 different department store nursing bras. FINALLY a bra that my nipples don't show through a bra that is comfortable supportive doesn't bind and has lasted for several months and still fits great/looks great even though I wear it almost constantly and wash it every 3 days or so.

As far as the reviewer who recommended the Gap bra just FYI the GAP company has been caught using child labor to manufacture their clothing not once but TWICE the second time the children were even being abused with oily rags being stuffed in their mouths when they cried. I personally don't want to give any of my money to that company. Bella Materna bras are manufactured in the united states so it goes to reason their costs will be a little higher. The quality is high and I will buy from them again.More detail ...
