The Bravado Original Nursing Bra is both comfortable and stylish. It is made from a stretchy soft 92% cotton/8% spandex blend that supports your changing shape all day. Original Bravado nursing bras are not only great for nursing but also for supporting you through your pregnancy with your continually changing shape. They are also easy to care for to. Just machine wash using ordinary detergent and line dry.

*Those wearing a DD Cup and above may prefer the style and added support features of the Double Plus - especially for sleeping.

There are three styles of the Bravado Original Nursing Bra to best accomodate your needs. This style is for smaller cup sizes, the Plus Style is for medium size cups, offering a little more support, and the Double Plus Style has a full front to give the maximum support needed for larger breasts. The Double Plus Style bra will fit up to a G cup. The main design differences between the styles are:

Style Support Features
Basic (this style)
  • Seamless cups
Plus
  • Double fabric side panel for extra support
  • Seams running to the side of the nipple to avoid potential irritation to this sensitive area
Double Plus
  • Double fabric side panel for extra support
  • Wider shoulder straps and double snap closure, which stop the strap from twisting and give extra security for the heavier breast
  • Solid front, “bandeau” crop style accommodates various breast shapes, and gives coverage and support when worn to bed

Bravado Original nursing bras are made from a blend of 92% cotton and 8% spandex that allows the cup to mold to a woman’s breast and to support its changing shape all day long. The material stretches and contracts to fit the breast without becoming too tight during engorgement. This reduces the risk of mastitis and allows room for breast pads without making the bra too tight. The sports bra style back provides excellent upper-middle back support, takes stress off of the shoulder straps, and holds the shoulder straps in place even during nursing. The shoulder straps are adjustable for extra comfort and the snaps for nursing are easily managed one-handed! The cups drop fully away from the breast giving complete nursing access for the baby. The elastic band is deliberately quite wide to give support under the breast and allow for even weight distribution. The pull-on styling means no more hooks to worry about.

Bravado Original Nursing Bra Testimonials

“God Bless Canada – those Maple-Leaf-Heads make the best maternity bra in the world.”

— Baby Bargains Book, USA

“It offers a fabulous fit! Not only does it give you support up front, but throughout your back as well. The spandex allows for consistent support all the way around. This is beneficial to every nursing mom. The variety of colors and patterns is such a welcome relief from the standard white that you often see out there.”

4 out of 5 stars good support and comfortable
by Zinda from Minneapolis, MN on 3/5/2011
Recommends it to Friends: Yes
Very comfortable bra with no pinch points or rubbing. Great support. The one negative I would give it is the should straps actually feel like they are about to slip off of my shoulders, though they have stayed put. I will continue to use this bra, even when I am no longer breast feeding!

3 out of 5 stars Not supportive enough for me
by Sandra from New York on 2/23/2011
Recommends it to Friends: Yes
Initially, based on reviews and the product description, this seemed like the bra I had been waiting for: simply feminine, comfy and supportive. Bravado did a great job on the comfy and feminine part, but this just was NOT supportive for me. MAYBE this is because I'm short (about 5 feet) and small-breasted (34A while nursing my 16 month old), but I just found that the fabric sagged after a few hours and I looked like...an old grandma. I even shortened the straps a few inches, but the fabric is just too comfy and stretchy and doesn't support my shape. I'd definitely use this to sleep in when I have a newborn, but not for going out. SO disappointed because I REALY like the way it feels on. Gave it 3 stars because I would LOVE to love this bra... (Updated on 2/23/2011.)

5 out of 5 stars Super Comfy
by PSherman from Texas on 2/23/2011
Recommends it to Friends: Yes
This bra is extremely comfortable. I am very fond of the Bravado brand, and this lives up to its name. It's so comfortable I sleep in it. I'm currently 38 weeks pregnant, and absolutely love the the bottom band does not dig into my skin like other bras I have tried. Definitely recommended!

4 out of 5 stars Love this bra
by MMCannon from Houston, TX on 2/22/2011
Recommends it to Friends: Yes
I love this bra because it's so comfortable. On top of that the snaps are very easy to get on and off with one hand, but they do stay in place.
