What is the best most comfy nursing bra?

I am thinking of buying a nursing bra or two now so that I can wear them for the next few weeks and get used to them before the baby gets here. I am by no means a small breasted woman even before the pregnancy and am definitely larger breasted now. My current sizing is 40DD, normal sizing is 34DD. I really like the underwire even though I have heard conflicting information about whether it decreases milk production. I have always bought the full cup smooth sensation bra at Frederick's. Of course, they don't sell nursing bras there so, now I'm at a loss of where to go to get one and which ones fit the best and are most comfortable for larger busted women. Anyone find one that they really like. I usually spend 25-35$ for a bra so pricing isn't too much of a concern at least not as much as fit and comfort.

My bras come from Nordstrom.... they are rather expensive, but well worth the cost. Plus Nordstrom will measure you and give your wonderful service. I wear a 34 F nursing bra made by Anita. You can find that brand on Ebay for around $35 per bra (half the price of Nordstrom)

Here's my search on Target's site for nursing bras/tanks.  If it doesn't come up, it's pretty easy to just go to Target.com and type in 'nursing' in their search box.  =D

I swear, I was just thinking about this yesterday and today ... so this morning I went to Target's site to see if they sold nursing bras and tanks.  Come to find out they do!!  Yay!!  So I know where I'm goin'!  =D

I'm going to have to measure before I go to the store, but I'm thinking I may buy them a cup size or two bigger than what I measure now, because from what I've read and heard, the boobies are going to go nuts once the baby's born and milk comes in.  >.>  And I thought they were already huge!!

I don't know about the underwire info ... I would say "no underwire" only because you may end up sleeping in the nursing bra (to prevent some leakage and help with those late night feedings), and the underwire might be uncomfortable for that.  I've always been an underwire girl myself, but bought some sports bras that I've been wearing religiously during this pregnancy.  They're very comfy!  =D

I'll let you know how my bra hunting at Target goes!!  Good luck to you too!
