    I honestly thought they were underwired which is why I bought them, but anyway...

    The maternity bra cup size is just a bit bigger than an asda padded t shirt bra, very comfy and didn't give my granny 38E's. I'll wear it even though I swear by underwires.

    Nursing bra cup sizes are a bit small, so I'd go up a cup size. But very comfy and very pretty, especially the Rosa (the Sophia has two thin fancy straps that I think would dig in after too long).


    Thanks for the info & feedback, tiamai!

    Have bid on both a rosa & sophia - they are pretty:D Will hopefully then have them by end of week:D And it's totally ok for me to be sat here looking at them on ebay cos buying nursing bras was on my todo list for today :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Greent, have you have the birth plan chat with the midwife yet? Mine asked me if I'd packed my bags... I said I had a list of things I needed to buy to put in my bag... Did that count? She didn't look too impressed...

    Tickle - you may want disposable nicks and some face wipes and flannels in case you have a c/s
    In my local hosp they but you in their nasty one size fits all paper nicks if you have a section and if you're stuck in bed for a bit they can wash you with the flannels (a dark one for bits and a lighter one of body ;)) and you can freshen up with the wipes if u feel a bit grubby before you can get out of bed comfortably

    Tine - no chargers will be allowed in hosp unless they have a green test sticker
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    Right random rant... we're looking a getting a new fridge/freezer as ours keeps filling up with ice in the bottom so it's near impossible to open... And the water thingy in the door has never worked lol
    We found one we liked but everywhere has stopped doing it - seems like it was a good thing as the only reviews I can fin on it are very negative :eek: Shame because it seemed PERFECT grrrr
    But now we have to pick something else and there isn't anything else we like out there :( typical! Want it to be silver in colour to match everything else, need to have decent size freezer as we don't have room elsewhere for another freezer :( and I can't be doing with these water dispensers in the fridge doors - we can't easily run water to the fridge and I hate the idea of havign to top it up and it wastes door space... any ideas lol

    MrsT - I hear ya'. I'll prolly be that size by the time the baby comes, so I can only imagine how difficult it will be to find cheap nursing bras. Bravissimo does sell them for £20-25, but that's not as cheap as eBay of course.

    Was disappointed with the maternity bra I just bought off eBay (from the link on here!). Swore the description said it was underwire - and it's not. Plus, I bought the size I always wear (34G) & it comes nowhere near being adequate in the cups! Okay for sleeping, I suppose, but not for anything else.
