The padding is nice, you can't see through. Though, the pads seem to move a bit when you lift to nurse and you have to adjust them again.
Very comfortable to wear.
About the sizing. I was reading the reviews and was about to get L, one size bigger thean the suggested for me. But at the end anyways decided to go fot the M, and good thing I did. M was just right size for me and one size bigger would have been too big.
Good buy!
Great Option!

As other reviewers have mentioned, the bra seems to run a little small but to be fair, it has to be a little tight to hold everything in place! I'm 5'8" and approx 150 lbs (38D) and the XL is pretty tight. But that being said, it is a great option to have, especially for the summer months!!

I was pretty skeptical but I am so impressed with this. I am nursing for the 4th year running and I wish I'd tried this sooner.
Nice!

Great strapless bra! Fits well and very comfy-has a nice padding so you can't see through it. Only downside is that the pads are a bit awkward to get out of the way for nursing-but definitely worth the purchase. Also a very reasonable price!
Very pleased

I agree with other reviewers about the sizing. I was right in between the small and medium sizes, but when I tried them both on, the medium fit much better. Plus, I'm pregnant now, so I fully expect that I'm only going to get bigger when my milk comes in, so the medium seems like a better investment. This isn't as much support as an underwire strapless bra, but you also can't nurse in an underwire bra unless you fully expose yourself. The pullup design of this is great for nursing moms and the added padding provides great nipple coverage and you still have room to add a breast pad if needed. I have a beach vacation coming up and am greatly looking forward to wearing my strapless sundress without being embarrassed now!

A disappointment. I'm not small, but I'm not huge either. I'm pregnant again and needed a nursing bra for a particular dress I have to wear in a friend's wedding. I got the XL and it's very tight. I suppose nothing will fall out, but I had hoped it would provide more breathing room.
Great Bra

Overall I love these bras. I have both the nude and black and they are fantastic and allow me to wear my strapless shirts and dresses. However, the sizing seems to run small compared to the sizing chart. I first ordered a Large which ended up being too small. I am a 36 to a 38 DD. That was just on the line of a L and XL so I figured that was my fault. So I ordered the XL... even this one is too small. I cannot see how an XL can fit the range of size that it says it can as I am at the start of that range and it is really tight. The bra itself is great. Just a bit too tight for my size.
I like it!

There aren't a whole lot of strapless nursing bras out there, but if you are looking for one, this is a great one. Of course it doesn't lift the girls up as high as a bra with straps would, but it's not as saggy as I would have expected with a strapless. I do agree with the other reviewers who suggested ordering a size larger that you measure using the chart, I did and the size is perfect. Also, I really like the pads inside; they are just thick enough to prevent show-through but they aren't bulky. I wore the bra under a tank top the other day and didn't feel like I was constantly yanking it up, so I will be wearing it under a strapless sun dress to an outdoor wedding in a couple of weeks. I would definitely recommend this bra if you need to wear strapless.
Good but not good

I like having a nursing bra that is strapless so I can occasionally wear a strapless top or a tank top but I was unable to wear this bra with anything too low cut or even with a simple v neck tank because it showed and I did not like that. It also is not the most comfortable thing in the world to wear but it does work well for the occasional strapless top.

This is such a fantastic bra. One very important thing to remember and do is order a size LARGER than what the size chart says you are. Now that I'm nursing I am currently a 36C, but the bra was too small. I found a store in VA that later told me that you should always order a size up when purchasing La Leche League products. Needless to say I bought 2 more strapless bra's at a bigger size and I am much happier.
Love'em!
