Hmm... I've got paperbacked ones... Sainsburys own.

TBH it's more the underneath and sides of my boobs that's the problem. Sigh... I used to be so small and neat and now I would well and truly fail the pencil test!

LOL at the pencil test! After a while your boobs settle down and they wont always be so enlarged.

Are your bras cotton? Are you sure your milk isn't spraying onto your bra during a feed? Really feel for you, it's horrible being uncomfortable around there anyway let alone when you're feeding babies as well.

How's the feeding going?

Yeah cotton bras. Don't think they are leaking onto the bras, mostly going onto their faces if they pause for breath

Feeding is going wonderfully well. I'd say I'm enjoying it 90% of the time (10% are middle of the night epics and nipple chewing) and they are gaining weight so well. They got weighed yesterday. Tom had put on half a pound and Charlotte 6oz in a week! Chuffed to bits with them and myself.

Have you looked at lilypadz?? You can wear these without having to wear a bra so you can give them a good airing. If not then I agree with Lucy, don't buy the plaastic backed breastpads as they don't allow moisture to evaporate, instead either use paper backed ones or reusable ones.

Have given up wearing the bra at night and just live with a couple of Dolly Parton's taking up space in the bed and generally getting in the way.

Actually they don't seem to leak so bad unless one of the babies starts muttering and the heat rash is clearing up nicely now.

That's good news Helen, glad it's getting better.

Your boobs will settled down a lot and reduce in size, your body is still adjusting to the bfding
