"Hands-free" pumping bras

[Anonymous]

Any recommendations, ladies?

Had this one and loved it (picked it up at the breastfeeding center): http://www.easyexpressionproducts.com/

And to clarify - you don't take your normal nursing bra off to use it - it just zippers around you on top of the other bra (with flaps open.) And I liked that it went around you and zippered, so you could use it without getting crazy undressed. Paired with a cardigan sweater to cover the sides and a nursing cover over the front (turned black side out), I was able to use it to pump discreetly in my cube.

Just chiming in to say that bustier is awesome.

It is - I'm using it right now.

I will only add that if you think you're between sizes, go with the smaller one. Mine was in a package marked as a small, but the tag says medium and it has really stretched out over the 8 months I've been using it. When the bottles get full, the weight pulls everything down and it's not so hands free anymore.

I use it too and agree to go with the smaller size.

I have found that most of my bras, combined with the suction of the pump, holds the phalanges in place without a "hands-free" bra. I am pumping right now with just a regular nursing bra. You might want to try it before you spend the extra money.

I agree, I use the Easy Expressions bra only while pumping and it's AWESOME!!

wow....I didn't even know these existed!

I used a coule of cheapy-nursing bras from Target with small slits cut in the cups to allow the phlanges to slide through- cheap, easy, and the straps fit over my clothes providing a little extra support to full bottles...yay hands-free bras!!

I cut holes in an old sports bra I had to make my own bustier. It works great.
