Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

I have heard that Jeunique are the best built bras out there. I have never seen one but would love to study the construction. . . because for those of you who sew, you know you can also make your own bras. It's NOT hard to do and while it does take tweaking, once you get a good fit you are set. The cost is incredibly less than buying them. I haven't done a nursing one yet though - other than my sleep bra a few weeks ago.


I love wearing sleeping bras and yours is so nice. I hope to get my machine humming soon and this will be a doable project!

As I have changed sizes and gone through a few bras, I could send a few ones your way to look over. I haven't bought all the styles, but have a few for inspiration. I would love to change a few things on these, such as more natural fibers, perhaps some padding for more modesty sake, so the idea of making one would be great! I hand wash, but daily wearing is hard on them, and the elastic has pulled, so you'd have to be kind on what you see! And you'd have permission to take apart to see the construction and all. Just PM if interested.

I've been wearing them for 7 years and although I've tried, I can't go back to another kind.

Oh my goodness! Thank you all so much for the ideas. I am not very well endowed and usually get to about a 36D when nursing. I think I might look at Target for one of the camisoles. That would be great for nursing in public. You wouldn't have to worry about your stomach showing if the blanket fell off or something. I also think I will look into the LL ones from Penny's. I might buy a few different ones to see what I really like. Thanks so much for all the links and opinions. My old ones were so bulky and even worse with the underwire, not terribly comfy. So I am looking forward to trying some of your ideas.

God bless,
Jess
