maternity bras

[soconfused]

im about to buy my first maternity bra, but from browsing on the net and looking in various shops i cant seem to find anything suitable at all. i know they are more of a practical thing rather than a fashion show but with me being 19 yrs old i dont want anything thats going to be too frumpy, if you get what i mean? anyonw got any ideas?

Hi,

I just got mine in M & S too. There was only one kind which was annoying and it came in a double pack in which one was white- I don't do white bras! Basically I dyed the white one with some burgandy washing machine dye and the body is a deep burgandy and the straps and fastener are a matching pink because of the way the material has take the dye- it looks much better! They are quite plain though and apart from the fact that they're not underwired and the straps are nice and wide they don't look any different than a sports bra style and wow are they comfy! I haven't actually gone up a cup size yet but my previous bra was uncomfortable- I think the maternity bras might be slightly more generous on the cup size anyway, they certainly have more room round the sides.

That's where my boobs have seemed to increased, they are definately fuller round the sides. I checked out Mothercare but their bras seemed really expensive, I do need one though as gel filled wonderbras are not good, and at the moment I've been wearing a tight vest pulled up under my boobs like a crop top as normal bras hurt. I've definately gone up a cup size.

The M & S ones were 2 for £20 which isn't that bad I suppose. The lady in the fitting room said I'd need to come back for a new one in about 3 months time! My Mum came bra shopping too and said not to worry about only having these ones for a few months as they'll be good again when they shrink back down again afterwards. She said she ended up having to have a bra to sleep in too towards the end. I was a DD before I got pregnant so god knows what I'll end up as! Might need scaffolding!
