It fits so much better and makes pumping wayyyy better. As an exclusive pumper I would say my simple wishes bra is my #2 must have (right after the double electric pump). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hands-free-bra-purchased-vs-homemade#post-758455 Thu, 02 May 2013 20:26:07 +0000 JessiBee 758455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't tried homemade. But I love my simple wishes! It zips up the front, so it's easy to put on without totally stripping, which is nice in my office, and I don't feel like I readjust it once I'm going, and if you're planning to pump for long term, it's not really so expensive given how often it will get used! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hands-free-bra-purchased-vs-homemade#post-758394 Thu, 02 May 2013 20:10:28 +0000 charlotte 758394@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone tried both and think the simple wishes etc are worth the money? I'm using a homemade version now (cut old bra) and it does the job but I am definitely not comfortable and sometimes have to readjust multiple times. Should I invest in the real kind or are they all kind of awkward ? </p>
