I went to VS and got measured and bought one basic nude and one black bra to wear. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-bras-did-you-wear-while-pregnant#post-2633611 Fri, 07 Oct 2016 10:03:04 +0000 catlady 2633611@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had bought some bigger ones (up in both chest and cup size) from my previous pregnancy so right now I am just wearing those and have also been able to wear some of my smaller ones with bra extenders. I just got them at Marshalls so they weren't too pricey. When I get closer to the end, I will probably pick up a few more of my favorite nursing bras (last time I wore them for 2 years so the ones I have are kind of ratty). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-bras-did-you-wear-while-pregnant#post-2633610 Fri, 07 Oct 2016 10:02:18 +0000 Anagram 2633610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought a few from Khols or TJ maxx or somewhere in bigger sizes. And I saved them so I had them for my second pregnancy. I have huge boobs and cannot wear bralettes or anything without underwire or my boobs will be at my waist. Even my favorite nursing/pumping bra this time had underwire. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-bras-did-you-wear-while-pregnant#post-2633607 Fri, 07 Oct 2016 09:59:14 +0000 NorthStar 2633607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did bra extenders for awhile, but need to look for something new eventually. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-bras-did-you-wear-while-pregnant#post-2633599 Fri, 07 Oct 2016 09:49:02 +0000 psw27 2633599@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my chest expanded rapidly and was very uncomfortable so I had to go for "good" bras with underwire and support. I started out at Soma but grew even more later in the pregnancy and ended up at Nordstrom getting two Natori bras. It was an expensive part of pregnancy for me! But, I did end up using the same bras as I returned to work (wasn't nursing just pumping) and then as I weaned and things shrunk. Now i'm pregnant again and right back in my mondo bras! Giant boobs = my least favorite part of pregnancy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-bras-did-you-wear-while-pregnant#post-2633584 Fri, 07 Oct 2016 09:23:13 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2633584@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only bought one extra bra in a larger band size. Once I was in the correct size band my cup didn't spill over anymore. Once I stopped BF I went back to my regular bras, which was great because the larger band by then was loose. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-bras-did-you-wear-while-pregnant#post-2633579 Fri, 07 Oct 2016 09:17:57 +0000 MrsBrewer 2633579@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just wear coobie like bras all the time. Not very supportive....but it does the trick. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-bras-did-you-wear-while-pregnant#post-2633563 Fri, 07 Oct 2016 08:58:53 +0000 snowjewelz 2633563@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD1 - I wore Coobies the whole time</p> <p>DD2 - I rotate between Coobies at home and regular bra b/c so far my cup size hasn't changed </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-bras-did-you-wear-while-pregnant#post-2633558 Fri, 07 Oct 2016 08:53:46 +0000 yin 2633558@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just used bra extenders, but I'm small and have no boobs (went from an A to a B). The coobie bra would work well too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-bras-did-you-wear-while-pregnant#post-2633437 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 22:36:45 +0000 newlypregnantlady 2633437@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Towards the end of my first pregnancy I was like a 36GG and I fit in absolutely nothing. I basically wore sleep bras all the time. </p> <p>And there's a bra from Target that is my perfect bra. It has fit me for several cup sizes, has no wires (my nursing boobs don't tolerate underwire). And it's stretchy enough that I can just pull it down and use it for nursing. </p> <p><a href="http://www.target.com/p/playtex-women-s-simply-sized-wireless-bra-p844/-/A-14085603" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/p/playtex-women-s-simply-sized-wireless-bra-p844/-/A-14085603</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-bras-did-you-wear-while-pregnant#post-2633427 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 22:02:42 +0000 PinkElephant 2633427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought my usual Gap Tshirt bras up a cup size...then scoured the racks at Marshall's to find whatever I could in my weird tiny band/huge cup combo size. I strongly preferred not to wear a coobie or nursing bra. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-bras-did-you-wear-while-pregnant#post-2633419 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 21:45:15 +0000 DesertDreams88 2633419@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought nursing bras without underwires. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-bras-did-you-wear-while-pregnant#post-2633405 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 21:07:18 +0000 Beehive 2633405@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just gave in and bought 2 normal bras in a bigger size (22 weeks now). I think my nursing bras are closer to my regular cup size than I am now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-bras-did-you-wear-while-pregnant#post-2633402 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 21:01:36 +0000 Periwinkle 2633402@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At around 25 weeks I switched over to nursing bras as I had outgrown my regular bras. The unfortunate part is the bras I bought are now a bit too small on me now that my milk is in, so I may need another round of nursing bras, something I was hoping to avoid :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-bras-did-you-wear-while-pregnant#post-2633399 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 20:59:46 +0000 Smurfette 2633399@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just bought some new nursing bras. I figured why buy bigger bras for 3 more months when then I will need nursing ones. I was spilling out of my regular so I had to get new ones. I got them at Destination Maternity. They have a sale buy 3 get one free. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-bras-did-you-wear-while-pregnant#post-2633394 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 20:50:00 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2633394@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@pregnantbee: oooh just looked it up and that looks perfect! I may have to try that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-bras-did-you-wear-while-pregnant#post-2633392 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 20:48:23 +0000 avivoca 2633392@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been wearing my regular bras but now that I am on leave I wear sports bras. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-bras-did-you-wear-while-pregnant#post-2633386 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 20:41:56 +0000 pregnantbee 2633386@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wore nursing bras from maybe 13w on. Bravado Body Silk Seamless. I like that there's no underwire yet they are fairly supportive for a large chest and one size fits a range of sizes. And they're good for when baby arrives. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-bras-did-you-wear-while-pregnant#post-2633382 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 20:38:46 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2633382@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm only 15+3, but I've already grown a cup size. None of my bras fit except sports bras and half of those are tight too. I have a rotation of like 2-3 bras I wear.</p> <p>What bras did you wear while pregnant? I'm hesistant to buy a normal bra because I remember with my first, I grew several cup sizes. </p> <p>Did you wear sports bras or bras like coobies? I like bralettes but outgrew the ones I have as well. </p>
