[jacqdingle]

^may underwire ba yung avon nursing bra sis?

[foxy_girlfriend]

^wala sis

[Stellar27]

ok na sakin yung Avon na Nursing bra pero kasi wala na siya sa bagong brochure sana magkaroon na ulit.

[heaven_scent102]

i have:
avon
sorella ba un?
le leche
indigo baby
wacoal

[jacqdingle]

sis where did you buy your wacoal nursing bra? wala kasi ako mahanap eh..=(

[heaven_scent102]

^while i was in bangkok, i got 2 with underwire then 2 na pang sleeping nursing bra, yun isiside mo lang siya tapos deretso dede na [textspeak!] baby very nice, love the material

[switlass]

I use Gigi AMore. It's pretty inexpensive (around Php200) and they come in big sizes. I got really big when I was pregnant so I started using them on my 6th month and it was really convenient. Even their Maternity Undies are great (sorry if it's off topic). I tried wacoal too and it's great but with the exception of the tela, there's not much difference.

[ichelie]

^ i used to use Gigi Amore too.  I have 5 of it.  Though yung padded nursing bra nila, lumuwag na sakin.  Na stretch na yung tela, kaya di ko na magamit now. mga 1st 4 months ko lang nagamit.  though yung non paded, ok pa.

Im in search for a good nursing bra now.  im using 1 mothercare na nursing, and 2 maternity support bras.

ok ba nursing bra ng triumph? muntik na ako bumili sa mothercare kaya lang parang naisip ko hindi practical kung ipapangbahay lang. Worst pano kung walang milk na lumabas? naka nursing bra pa rin ako?

[ichelie]

^ sis. non padded yung triumph though the quality is lasting.  kung pang house lang, go for cheaper alternatives.

as of your milk production, check on the breastfeeding thread.  all women have milk.  it's up to you to decide if you want to breastfeed and sustain milk production.  madali bumili ng bra, read on breastfeeding muna

[anneG]

@ichelie - thanks! i have been reading the BF thread, I know some na talagang hindi nagka milk..anyways, fear ko kasi baka mamaya konti lang yung milk ko tapos sandali lang ako magpakapag BF yung baka ma stock yung ibang nursing bras ko, not unless wag na muna ako bumili ng madami?

[marose17]

^ Sis Anne, I suggest buy at least two (2) pairs muna for your hospital stay.  Saka, if you are like me, most likely, your bust measurement might change pa rin after giving birth.

Sis, why don't you attend a breastfeeding seminar?  Most of those I know who were unsuccessful in breastfeeding were either insufficiently informed, lacked support (from the family and the pedia, OB, etc.) or walang tiyaga.  All women have milk.   I do not believe in women having no or insufficient milk, except in very rare cases.

[anneG]

@marose17 - siguro buy muna ako for hospital & house use, next time na yung panglabas. I don't have time na to attend BF seminars as I have work from mon.-sat. & every sunday we are also attending birthing class im on my 32nd week na. Yung kakilala ko as in wala talaga siyang milk sa 1st baby niya, she did everything pero wala but sa 2nd baby niya sobrang dami naman more than 1y/o na meron pa din daw siyang milk. Pero yung isang kakilala ko naman i doubt kung sineryoso niya talaga mag BF.

[miksha]

mahirap po ba magbreastfeed kapag padded ang nursing bra? naninipisan kase ako sa mga walang padding bumabakat ang nipples. also kung may alam po kayo na breastfeeding seminar near tayuman area/makati, i would like to attend kahit na 4months pa lang ako

[marose17]

^ Sis, merong padded na nursing bra yata sa Mothercare.  I will check kapag napadaan ako doon.

Re breastfeeding seminar, check with Makati Med, PGH or Fabella.

[delisyus]

there's a free Bf seminar this July 10 at TMC... call the hospital na lang to ask for more info

I bouught 3 unpadded ones lang before but seldom used them din (when i went out lang and only for the first 2 months or so)... mas convenient sakin to be braless at home and to just use my old bras after...i just unclasp and hitch up mas nao-awkwardan ako using nursing bra eh

[miksha]

^ano po ang TMC at saan?

[bump]

^The Medical City in Ortigas Pasig.

I am also using Gigi Amore kc taong bahay lang naman ako. I bought kay fabnaima un panlabas ko.

[twelvth_goddess]

what makes a nursing bra different from normal bras? i need to buy new bras na kase masikip na normal bras ko ngayon.

[bump]

^normal bras kasi sis you have to pull it up pa unlike un nursing bra may flap lang sya na you'll remove then feed. so hindi talaga expose ng todo un breast mo.
