From what I have seen if you are a size 18 or over and having a baby you must be rich and wanting to spend a small fortune on a bra

I have been looking and here in Napier at the Warehouse, Farmers and Kmart the cheapest 20E bra that I have found is $40 and some places dont even go up to that price.

I got some 18DDs from the warehouse when they were $6 but my boobs are bursting out of them, the cups were too big before I got pregnant

Oh rant over, I'm off to bed now to read Harry Potter lol

Mhm I can relate! I had to get my maternity bras ordered in from a speciality lingerie store. They cost $70 each but are soooo comfortable. I called round all the lingerie stores in Tauranga and the one I got my bras for was the only store that even attempted to be helpful. The rest said 'sorry, we don't do that size'.

Same goes if you are a bigger cup size. I only needed a 14/16 but a G and those were 70-80 retail.. check out trademe there are a couple of sellers on there where I got mine from that were brand new but half the price

It could be worse.. I have to get my bras specially fitted at specialist stores as a) one boob is bigger than the other and b) I have sternum (breast bone) that bends inwards creating a fist size hole and if I'm not careful, one of my boobies falls right on in

Sounds nasty lemongirl.

I paid 55 for mine at a lingerie boutique. That's what I would have paid for a new bra anyway. I love the boutique I go to because the shop assistants are so helpful and great.

Im a 12H and cant find a maternity bra at all and I agree once they get to these sizes they are stupidly expensive.

Im the same, also the Warehouse ones never supported me properly.

I have 2 decent maternity bras. One Hotmilk & One truimpf Bra. Both costing $60 but well worth it

I use the Cheapies for around the house & night time.
