Greatest nursing bra ever. Bought two. Stretches comfortably when I am engorged and just as comfy when I'm done breastfeeding. love it!!
Superb for Nursing

This is by far the best nursing bra I have found. I have been using them for over 6 years, even when not nursing. I like that the foundation of the bra goes all the way around the breast. The clasp can be a bit tricky and stubborn at times and if you don't get it in good enough might unclasp. For me, it isn't the most comfortable for pregnancy because my belly grows fast and is right up in my chest so the more rigid band gets uncomfortable and digs in/itches. The fabric is nice because if you get it new it will be tight on your chest, but then stretch (to a point) when your milk is fully in. You do need to buy the correct size so go to the Medela website to get a proper measurement. If you're like me and grow a lot during pregnancy and with your milk it might not be the most longest lasting bra in terms of a lot of growth, but they hold up really well. When I'm nursing, I'm a 36DD, but at the beginning of this pregnancy I was a 36C, and now a 36D, and towards the end of my previous pregnancy I was a 38 band size, but I don't really want to buy 3 sizes so I'm looking into the Bravado Body Silk for during the pregnancy. ED NOTE: consider a bra extender if you need a little breathing room in the band :).
love it!

This bra is very supportive while being very comfortable. The snap is easy to undo for feedings. I now own 3 of them!
Not thrilled with it

Good points are: the thick shoulder straps are nice, the clips fasten securely, and the bra folds open completely offering complete exposure of the breast.
Bad points: This bra doesn't offer the greatest support or shaping, and the clips require two hands to close (they're not flip-clips).
