Before I was pregnant I was a C cup, now I'm already DD or E depending on the bra. I'm due in May, so I'm counting on nursing tanks, especially in the first month or two.
Any good options for tanks with more support?
-
I love the Bravado nursing tanks - they come up to a F/G cup and have a bra worked in.

I like my Bravada and wish I had sized up. It isn't as stretchy as other brands. My Glamourmom fits really well (I was a G or something when I bought it) and I like how super long it is

I'm an F/G and mainly struggle to find nursing tanks/bras with a small enough band size but bigger cups/shelf bra. These Target nursing tanks were the only ones I felt really happy with: http://www.target.com/p/women-s-nursing-cotton-cami-gilligan-o-malley/-/A-12250745

Glamourmom full bust tanks. They're expensive but worth it. I was a 32F pre-preg, an H/I nursing LO1 and an E/F/G with LO2. They've lasted through three years of pretty continuous wear and were so much more supportive and comfortable than the other brands I tried.
-
Honestly they never worked for me (pre baby was a DDD, nursing was a FF/G.) I bought the tank tops that attached to the nursing bras and they were a LIFESAVER! I wore them every day.

I can't just wear a tank so I have nursing tanks from target and motherhood that I wear over my nursing bra. I also really like the tank tops that I get from Costco. They're long and stretchy enough that I can pull them down.

I was a DD early in nursing but I liked the bravado ones a lot. They sometimes show up on babysteals.com for almost half price. I never tried them but might buy a glamourmom one after baby is born.
All that said, I wouldn't buy too many before your milk comes in and settles down. I mostly wore the target ones (like @peachykeen: posted) but I didn't think they were that supportive. Fine for wearing around the house or with a cardigan over them though. And I've been wearing them to bed pretty much since my 2 year old was born and they have held up surprisingly well!

I am about the same size as you. I tried the Target ones and they just didn't provide enough coverage. I actually cut out the shelf bra and they are wonderful now. I did 't want to spend a ton on just tank tops. This also gives me more coverage over my belly nursing and comes up higher now that the shelf bra is gone. At home i just wear a regular tank top and pull it down.
