Easy Expression Bra ???


Hey

I'm looking to buy a double breast pump, but like the idea of hands free. Does anyone have any experience of an Easy Expression bra?? I have a toddler, so the freedom to move about is vital

any help would be great

No but I just wear a feeding vest with no bra and it hold the pump in place

Another idea is to buy a cheapo sports bra (asda/ethels) and cut a lengthways split down the cup - this will also hold the cup part in place

Ooo let me know how you go, as I want to express feed rather than breast feed (i think, change my mind daily) did you get the halterneck one??

Cutting a sports bra is not a bad idea either..... if the easy expression bra is not all its cracked up to be, thats an idea

Hi Emma

Well it's here - NOT sexy in the slightest (I don't think I'll be letting Mr P see me in it anytime soon ) but it works brilliantly! It's soooo much nicer to be hands free!

Have a read of the 'exclusively expressing' sticky - it looks like bloody hard work to me. I just express enough for one bottle per day and that's hard enough!

I expressed exclusively for the first 2 weeks and its shockingly hard work you get the worst of BF and FF world.

If you can BF, try and establish that to get you both used to feeding first.


Now I only express to fill up freezer supply or if going out to places I'm not confident whacking the boob out it's like a dream
