Kindred Bravely Sublime Pumping Bra Hands Free, Adjustable Pumping & Nursing Bra with EasyClip for All Breast Pumps

My pre-pregnancy bra size was 32D, my bust was about 35in, weight 130 pounds, height 5’6. Right now I’m 35 weeks pregnant. Bust size went up to 38in. Weight went up to 155 pounds I’ve been using bra size 32DD (full coverage Wacoal), since the beginning of my 3rd trimester. I bought two Kindred Bravely nursing bras.For the “Sublime Nursing Sports” I went with the Kindred Bravely size fit directions, which put me on a 32F fit, and “Small Busty” size. This one was extremely tight! So I returned it.For the “Sublime Hands-Free Pumping & Nursing” I decided to follow one of the reviews from a person who had somewhat the same measurements I have. I got a normal medium (not busty), and it fits great!The quality of this bra is really impressive! The fit is super nice, the fabric is amazing, it does give a lot of support, and it covers everything. To me it’s totally worth the price! Don’t go cheap on something you’re going to use a lot, and that is going to make your postpartum easier and more comfortable.Something that I want to add is: this will probably be a great bra for hands-free pumping! But assuming you won’t be pumping all the time, I think that getting a normal nursing bra would be more practical for general breastfeeding, because then you don’t have to remove two different breast covers like you have do with this one. This is the reason why I decided to also get the “Simply Sublime Nursing Bra”, and the “ French Terry Racerback Nursing & Sleep Bra”, both by Kindred Bravely.

I would not recommend this particular bra for exclusive breastfeeding, especially during the immediate postpartum period. With three layers, it feels quite tight on lactating breasts and can be uncomfortable. The band is snug, even with an extender, and the material is rather stiff. I believe this bra would be more suitable for pumping after about three months of nursing, when the breasts have settled.Since I’m currently not pumping and am grateful to be at home with my baby, I highly recommend the "Sublime Seamless Nursing Bra." It’s a classic nursing bra that I find much more comfortable.I genuinely appreciate the support from Kindred Bravely; they promptly addressed my concerns about this bra and provided helpful recommendations based on my size and situation. Their customer service is outstanding, and I wholeheartedly recommend them. If you encounter any issues, don’t hesitate to reach out—they will ensure you’re satisfied with your purchase. You can shop with confidence; their bras are worth it!

I've bought this bra twice, once in a medium super busty early in my pregnancy, and more recently in x-large super busty now that I've had my baby and am nursing. I'm a 38K+ currently. This is probably the best pumping bra out there right now, and I love everything about it EXCEPT the straps. The ones on the medium super are different from the x-large super. The straps on the medium are uncomfortable but tolerable, but the ones on the x-large are painful! They twist and fold and dig in when they do that. My bust is so heavy that I can't find any way of keeping the straps from doing this; I've adjusted them every possible way. Other than this issue, it's a really great bra. Holds flanges and wearables in place well, allows for easy nursing, and provides support and shape.

Pros: good quality, seems sturdy and I would say that bustier women would find it supportive enough. It holds the flanges well and really enables hands-free pumping. The designers seem to have thought about everything- adjusting the shoulder straps is done on the front, you get an extension on the back so you have like 6 lengths you can adjust it to, etc.Cons: runs soooo small; I read this all over the reviews but I did not believe it could be that small. I looked up my size in the size chart (70-75B in European size which I figured was 32B) so I ordered a small according to the chart. I figured these things stretch over time and it will be ok. When it arrived it felt small and also very bulky- so many layers, feels like you are in an armor. There was an extension on the back which was super helpful and with it it was fitting better. I washed it (my fault, now I can't return it) and wore it twice. I believe when women say it has caused mastitis. It presses tightly in spite of the extension. Removing the padding helps a bit but it is still not comfortable. Even the shoulder straps are short when maximally extended!All in all, I don't know that there is a better solution out there on the market- maybe you just can't have it all: quality, multiple functions and comfort.

KINDRED BRAVELY NURSING & PUMPING BRA⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5 STARS OUT OF 5 STARS)HIGHLY recommend this bra to any mom or momma to be who plans to pump and/or nurse. I’ve used this brand of bras with both of my pregnancies and wouldn’t have it any other way! They continue to remain supportive even after over a year of constant wearing and pumping which is incredible and impressive. The fabric is soft yet firm enough to not sag and always maintains its supportive shape even when the weight and pull of the breast pump is active. The two clasps on the straps are quality and I’ve never worried about them disconnecting, unclipping or all together breaking.Over the past two years, I’ve ordered four of these bras because they are THAT GOOD. Expensive BUT worth the price nonetheless. Take it from this momma, you need this bra in your arsenal of maternity clothes!
