Customer Review: not for heavy breasts
Rating: 3 Stars
I am on my second baby and still havent been able to find a good nursing bra. I had HIGH hopes for this one b/c almost all the reviews I studied said that Anita is a great bra. Sure, its made more heavy duty than bravado or another brand, but it doesnt fit the way it should.
I have been sized by a professional and went by the sizing chart of Anita, its the bra! Look at the display picture they have, the middle part of the bra DOES NOT lie flat. The cups I dont think are the correct size, otherwise it would lay flat. Also, the bottom rolls under and doesnt lay flat. Im a 38H with very bottom heavy boobs. I also want to say that the straps have a pad sewn to it, but under where the seem it rubs into my skin!! which is much worse than the actual strap diggin into me, b/c its sharp!
I had very very high hopes, and I will cont. to wear it for now until I find another "high hope" bra. This bra does lift the girls up, much better than my Medela bra, which just makes my boobs SAG! and I tried a bravado and it totally sucked. But this anita bra I noticed wearing it my boobs start to stick out to the side.
I may have someone sew the clips onto my Layne Bryant bra that I totally love.
onto another bra....
Customer Review: Great bra... for two months..
Rating: 3 Stars
I loved this bra so, so much at first. I have a very large bust and need good support. I took good care of it and only handwashed... but it's already stretched out and the underwires have come out. They're great, but should be a lot more durable for the price.Customer Review: Not lined - at all
Rating: 2 Stars
I ordered this bra because of the description "Anita Style 5035. Comfortable molded nursing bra." It was not at all what I would refer to as "molded." In fact, it was not lined at all. I could see my hand through the material in the cups! I understand that many women have to wear nursing pads under their bras because of leaking, etc. If I had to wear them, then I wouldn't mind if the bra wasn't lined because they would cover everything. I do not have to wear them, so I have been searching for a bra in 34F that is actually fully lined for, ahem, modesty. So far, I have tried over 6 styles. 2 of them have been lined enough, but they do not have the size I need now as I move back to my prepregnancy band size but new nursing cup size. One of these two styles was Playtex Women's Nursing Underwire Bra 4115. Also, just for future reference, Anita Maternity Women's Microfiber Nursing Bra #5068 is not lined either.
I have returned this item and ordered Elomi Seamless Underwire Nursing Bra Style 3912 - Nude - 34F. Hopefully it will be lined sufficiently!
Customer Review: Good, but wire poked through
Rating: 2 Stars
I really liked this bra. I have a lot of trouble finding bras to fit (34/36 H) and this one fit perfectly. The only problem is about 1 1/2 months down the road, one of the wires poked through. It is not worth the money I paid for the short time it lasted. It is supportive, though, for large breasted women.
Customer Review: Right size, bad design
Rating: 1 Stars
The first problem I noticed about this bra is that when you unhook the cup, the strap tends to slide off of your shoulder. I have another nursing bra with this style of cup attachment, and it doesn't slide off so much. Annoying, but workable.
The other, is that the fabric at the bottom of the underwire curls under the underwire. (that's a lot of unders.) It's a *really* bad design issue that causes quite a lot of pain on your ribs right there. I went into my hospital's nursing center to buy a different bra and the sales lady confirmed that the turning-under is a very common problem with this style of bra.
Now it's my backup bra. I cut off the extra fabric that was turning under and wear it on wash days. Just find one that works for you and wear it to death. Chuck it when you're done.
Basically it's pretty difficult to find a nursing bra if you're larger than a D cup when nursing. Insane, yes, but factual.
The other bra I found fits and works better. It seems that most hospitals having nursing centers now, and those usually have a little store for purchasing nursing supplies. Good luck.
