Nursing bras, which brand is good?

FTM and need to find a good nursing bra. I'm big chested and have always been. Was a 36 DD and am now a 36 G (yes I know) so I need a good supportive bra. Any recommendations on a certain brand?

Try thyme maternity, I got mines from there . Maternity as well as nursing and they are super supportive. It's  worth spending there.

I would go with medela or bravado.  However I wouldn't buy bunch till you know what size your Boobs will settle into afer a few weeks your milk has been in.  I would go to a maternity and get measured I need a support to and wasted a lot of money with my first as I didn't want to spend 50+$ on a bra but all the money I wasted i should have just bought the expensive kids. Mama a huge difference.  Might go with medela first. I just found bravode but it when I was nursing my last baby and it we were near the end so I don't have experience nursing a newborn with these bras and I not as huge as I will be in a few weeks.

I'm very large as well, and have had to go to a lingerie store like Soma to get properly fitted. I have been wearing their bras since I started getting bigger during pregnancy and they are seriously the most comfortable bras I have ever bought. Definitely worth the extra money

I use bravado.   A bit spend but worth it.  Try to steer clear of underwires.   They could cause plugged ducts and make sure any bra doesn't fit too tightly.

With a 36G cup size I wouldn't recommend Wal-Mart or Target (I'm 34G). They don't have enough support in them to hold you with or without breastmilk. Make the investment if you can and go to a lingerie store and get properly fitted. My bust size hasn't changed in the last 36 wks so I have to wait another week or so to revisit the shop.

I'm a D cup and got the nursing camisoles and some sports bras mostly. Nursing bras can be on the tighter side.  I got mine at either Walmart or target I didn't wanna spend too much on them either.
