Bravado Designs is running a great giveaway for a Nursing Essentials Prize Pack! Click here to enter the giveaway at Bravado's website. One of the great prizes you can win is the Body Silk Seamless Nursing Bra. Bravado sent me one to review and share my thoughts with you about. I also have a giveaway for one of my readers.
First of all, let me say that I'm sort of hard to fit when it comes to bras. I have a wide rib cage and small chest. I'm somewhere around a 36 A/ small B. Ordering a nursing bra online did not seem like a good idea to me, but this one has a large range of fit so I thought it might work. Bravado offers great information and help figuring out your size. I received the Body Silk Seamless Nursing Bra in a size small.
The band of the bra is a thick elastic. Its very supportive but also stretchy at the same time. I wear it on the last set of hooks which is okay because if it stretches out over time I can tighten it. The cups fit well despite being just a bit too big. The molded foam cups help give the bra some shape and hide nursing pads. The bra does not have underwire - underwire is not recommended because it can put pressure on milk ducts and cause plugs and discomfort. Even without underwire it is supportive. The bra seems like a great quality bra that will last. The clasps are easy to use and can be opened and closed underneath my shirt without looking or having to mess with them too much.
I didn't wear the Body Silk Seamless Nursing Bra much at first because of having mastitis. I was afraid that the band was a bit too tight and didn't want to cause any issues. Its comfortable now though and will get lots of use. If you're looking for a high quality reliable nursing bra, give the Body Silk Seamless Nursing Bra a try. This is also a great gift for new moms since the sizing is so versatile. Bravado is a great company to support. They are making an effort to be green (read this section, you might even get some ideas to green your own home further!) and are involved in giving back to their community through product donations.

It's hard to find a good nursing bra. I'd love to try these.
ReplyDeleteI love that they make the sizing so easy and that it will grow with me. I'm still getting bigger and so it's nice to know that I can get something with room to grow in, but won't be ill-fitting.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to try their nursing bra. Thanx for the chance! Jenprincess88 at aol dot com
