"Not mean for anything larger than a B cup. Size chart is not accurate. Very misleading. Weird fit and everything spills out from all directions. Definitely not comfortable. Now have to pay for return shipping even after selecting based on size chart. Thought I would splurge even though everything is way overpriced but hate being cheated this way. . Ridiculous company! Will not buy anything from them again."
"The bra is comfortable and functional for nursing and pumping. I also like the way it looks. Some of the lines of the fabric do show under tighter shirts but it is not too noticeable. I tried four other nursing/pumping bras and sent them all back before finding this one."
"I was tired of being let down by pumping bras and didn’t want to buy another one but needed one I could comfortably wear to work all day and this one didn’t disappoint. It’s stretchy and comfortable but also provides support and is tight enough for pumping without being restricting."
"A friend of my highly recommended this bra but I really wasn't a fan. It feels so bulky with the multiple layers and appeared bumpy under a shirt. I just want something more smooth to wear under clothes postpartum and this wasn't it for me. It will probably be good for some, but I thought it was a bit overpriced for not having anything to help smooth it out."
"I unexpectedly have found myself in the first week postpartum doing a bunch of pumping to up my supply and these bras have been crucial. I panic ordered a bunch of brands / styles and these are far and away the most comfortable for lounging, nursing, and pumping. Buying my third now!"
"This bra is so smooth on my skin and feels so good. It is great for pumping!"
"I live in this bra. Its so soft and perfect support level."
"So comfortable and convenient for both nursing and pumping."
"Absolutely love this bra and is my go to for everyday nursing and pumping - comfortable and I am able to sleep in it too ! I never want to take it off and have already bought a few others in other colors . Highly recommend"
"Lovely material and provides just the right amount of support."

1. Bust
Measure around the fullest part of your bust while wearing an unpadded bra. Note this number.
2. Underbust/Band
Next, measure under your breasts, around your ribcage, then add 3 to this number. For example, if you measure a 31" ribcage, your band size is 34. If the number is an odd number, round up to the next even number.
3. Cup Size
Lastly, take your bust measurement minus your band measurement to determine your cup size using the chart below. For example, if your bust is 38" and your band measurement is 34", your bra size is a 34D.

| 0" - 1" | AA-A |
