I have small boobies and need the extra lift. Even when I was pregnant and nursing DS, I wore underwire bras. I tried no underwire and it didn't feel right to me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra/page/2#post-2253968 Tue, 04 Aug 2015 08:37:51 +0000 PinkElephant 2253968@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I posted a question like this a few months ago when I'd just quit nursing and got recommendations for Soma and Gap Body. I caught a Gap Body sale and am LOVING my new bras. They're simple, smooth cups with underwires - look great and are super comfy. I'm really happy with them. They also come in a good range of band/cup combos, which was key for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2253939 Tue, 04 Aug 2015 08:18:25 +0000 Mrs. Goose 2253939@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ms.line: no, I didn't yet. That's good to know. I bought a sports bra type nursing bra from a maternity store a few weeks ago and am trying to make that hold out longer. It is comfortable and has some little pads in it, but it doesn't give me a lot of support and I caught myself in the mirror with it the other day and realized I probably shouldn't be wearing it out of the house....underwire digs into me though right now because my uterus is pushing up underneath. I usually just take off my bra once I get home! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2253899 Tue, 04 Aug 2015 07:56:21 +0000 Mamaof2 2253899@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee: I asked on another post about finding a bra and @tmom suggested the Natori feathers - I got them yesterday and am wearing one today - OMG its sooo comfy and by far the prettiest bra I own! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2253823 Tue, 04 Aug 2015 06:03:06 +0000 abmamma 2253823@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@simplyfelicity: which bravado do you like?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2253819 Tue, 04 Aug 2015 05:54:38 +0000 ms.line 2253819@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Goose: Not sure if you ordered one yet, but I got my first Coobie the other day and it is *definitely* a different look from an underwire bra. It doesn't provide the level of support I hoped for, so I don't think I'll be wearing it out, but it is cozy for hanging out around the house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2253791 Tue, 04 Aug 2015 02:34:23 +0000 BSB 2253791@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Another vote for coobie! Though, I'm pregnant and small chested. For pregnancy, I wanted something comfortable and plus pregnancy makes my boobs look bigger. Pre-pregnancy, I liked padded bras. Not sure after being pregnant and after nursing, if I'll need to go back to padded bras. Guess it depends if I keep some of my boobs or go back to my pre-pregnancy size. :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2249725 Thu, 30 Jul 2015 11:01:34 +0000 turquoisemama 2249725@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Goose: I think they look pretty normal, especially if you leave the pads in. The one thing they aren't good for is wearing with a low cut shirt if you want cleavage. I have the "strappy scoop neck" and a "lace coverage." I'm thinking of trying the lace v neck next though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2249503 Thu, 30 Jul 2015 08:38:14 +0000 snowjewelz 2249503@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@turquoisemama: I'm totally gonna try the coobie to pump/nurse! I guess I just never thought about going back to it, since I do have nursing bras/tanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2249487 Thu, 30 Jul 2015 08:29:00 +0000 Mrs. Goose 2249487@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When you wear the coobie, how much does it look like you are wearing a regular bra with underwire? I keep hearing about them so much on here, but I definitely want my boobs to look and feel supported.</p> <p>Edit: just looked on Amazon and there a bunch of different types of coobie bras. Which ones are people rocking?</p> <p>Thanks! Underwire bras are digging into my rib cage at this stage of my pregnancy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2249299 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 21:03:43 +0000 mfa_lady 2249299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@turquoisemama: Hahahaha, I just acted that out! Got it. Seems like a good solution! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2249263 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 20:18:27 +0000 Greentea 2249263@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well, I'm nursing, in the Bravado Bliss. I never ever ever wear underwires- I don't think they are healthy! I'll purchase a bra with one and actually take it out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2249260 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 20:12:15 +0000 turquoisemama 2249260@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Anya: yeah, I just remove the pads all together. They are such a pain to put back in and with nursing pads in place, there's really no need! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2249259 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 20:10:50 +0000 turquoisemama 2249259@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mfa_lady: I like to wear a tank so I pull down the Coobie, pull up my shirt and pull down the tank so it's just a little hole...ahh nursing...haha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2249244 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 19:54:08 +0000 Raindrop 2249244@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Another vote for coobie!</p> <p>They seem to be on sale a lot, so if you don't need them right now I would wait for them to go on sale. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2249221 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 19:23:49 +0000 autumnlove 2249221@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: yes, I need an underwire! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2249193 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 18:24:56 +0000 mfa_lady 2249193@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@turquoisemama: I usually pull up when I'm wearing mine! It works, but it feels more exposed if I'm out in public somewhere. Next time, I'm definitely getting the new nursing version! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2249154 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 16:48:14 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 2249154@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a 34G and having an underwire is non negotiable! I like Freya and Felina bras, with a bit of padding and a seamless back band. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2249149 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 16:42:43 +0000 Anya 2249149@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@turquoisemama: same here :) I don't like how the cups get squished when I do that so I remove them at home and just put them in for outside of the house. I only ever wear a "real" nursing bra if all the coobies are in the wash. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2249143 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 16:38:15 +0000 turquoisemama 2249143@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: @mfa_lady: Have you guys tried just pulling the Coobie down on one side to nurse? I have a myriad of nursing bras and that's still my favorite way to access.</p> <p>To answer the thread question, Coobie is my fave too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2249113 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 15:35:26 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2249113@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have begun wearing sports bras more often than not. I like the ones from Lucy and they're constantly on sale. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2249077 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 14:50:53 +0000 mfa_lady 2249077@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: I don't have any nursing bras that I love! The best one is this: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003P2VHRU?psc=1&#038;redirect=true&#038;ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003P2VHRU?psc=1&#038;redirect=true&#038;ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00</a></p> <p>Because it's pretty and it fits well. But it's not the most super duper comfy thing ever. Honestly, whenever I can get away with it on the weekends (I mostly pump during the week b/c of work) I just wear nursing tanks under everything. So much easier--but not great-looking or that supportive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2249069 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 14:43:34 +0000 snowjewelz 2249069@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mfa_lady: I just realized I lent a Coobie to a pregnant friend to try out.. I better get it back if she doesn't like it! What do you use now? I have the bavardo coobie-like ones from Target</p> <p>@Pancakes: Haha, I guess you can! Maybe I should try! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2249055 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 14:30:49 +0000 looch 2249055@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know I am in the minority, I find that I need an underwire bra to feel comfortable.</p> <p>I like Maidenform and Soma. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2249041 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 14:24:42 +0000 mfa_lady 2249041@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: I knowwwwww. I will definitely be buying those for #2. Ha! Even though that's in the undetermined future, since LO is only almost 7 months old. I was just telling my SIL about Coobies--she's due in Feb--and about how jealous I am that they made a nursing bra after I bought mine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/super-comfortable-bra#post-2249038 Wed, 29 Jul 2015 14:22:42 +0000 snowjewelz 2249038@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mfa_lady: Whaat!!
