When did you get your nursing bra?

I'm currently 36+4 and Bravissimo told me to come back for a nursing bra when I'm 38 weeks onwards. My boobs haven't changed all too much in pregnancy in terms of size and as a FTM and a bigger busted lady already, I have no idea what to expect post baby too. But I'm anxious to have my hospital bag ready inc the bra. Looking for other mamas/expectant mums to weigh in on when you've bought your bras/what you'd advise in your experience? Thanks!

I got mine from M&S this weekend at 36 weeks. My antenatal class said between 36-37 weeks was a good time to go.

I purchased two maternity bras each from M&S, Momcozy, and Matalan. The M&S one has become my favorite and my go-to choice during this pregnancy. I’m looking forward to giving birth so I can start wearing the others.

Woth ny first My boobs changed a lot.from pregnancy to post partum and then kept changing as baby got older. So, personally I do not see the point of a fitted bra as I would have had ro change every months. I biught instead bralettes which come in sizes like s m l xl...... I found these to be more flexible. I have been wearing them through pregnancy too.

I'm similar to you, bigger bust and only gone up a bit in the cup during pregnancy, bit more in the band but that's because I'm short and the bump is pushing so much on my ribs! I've spent ages trying to find a nursing bra that works and haven't been successful and so have just figured I'll wait to see what the boobs do when baby is here and get something then. To bide the time I've got these two lounge nursing bras from M and S, that are just stretchy not fitted (they come in a pack of 2, mint green and black). They're not super supportive but the first few weeks I don't see my needing loads of support anyway. I'm a 36GG and got a size XL.

My boobs didn’t get bigger til my milk came in (2 days after he was born)
