BF'ing Moms ??
I would like to try and BF and I was wondering what kind of bras ot tops do you wear? Some of those BF tops look a little werid and not comfy. I would like to start picking some of these items up so any suggestions would be greatly appericatied, thanks.
Re: BF'ing Moms ??
I lived in the nursing tanks from Target, the brand was Gilligan and O'Malley, link below. I also wore their bras as well. I found them to be very comfy and not that expensive, so I didn't feel bad that I was stretching them out when I would pump hands free by stretching them around the hand-held shields.

i stocked up on the soft cup nursing bras at motherhood and bought a couple of the medela sleep bras that i wear at night.
as for tops, i tried some of the "special" BFing tops and they all suck and are butt ass ugly. ?i just wear deep v-neck tops and layer a tank top underneath. ?i've been nursing the bean for 16.5 months with no problems.?
I too used Target brand Nursing bras. I found to be comfortable and didn't feel so bad after using them to the fullest and tossed them out.
Ditto Target!
also tried the Old Navy ones... don't waste your time - they are horrible!
My boobs are too big for the nursing bras and tops at Target, so I had to get a few ginormous nursing bras... and you know what? I found just popping out of my regular bra to be just as convenient, so when the nursing bras fell apart (yep) I didn't bother to replace them.
I did get a lot of those cheap, stretchy tank tops and I layer them under everything. I can just pull the top down a little so I can nurse Blair, and I can wear a v-neck or a blouse or a cardigan and look just fine. The speacialty nursing t-shirts are expensive and look wierd.
