In Search of the Elusive Nursing Bra

A few of my friends and family have heard of know of my search for a nursing bra that actually fits...so here is the update and latest saga.
I seem unable to find a nursing bra that fits! I tried on everything that was near my size at Be By Baby and only one fit but I refused to buy it because it was too wide...inhibited my ability to move my arms in front of my body. Next I went on a venture with Bella Materna and tried oh every style they make in a few sizes They were great to work with sending me extra's to try on after I talked to them on the phone about my saga. I even tried the Intimacy bra store the Opera show had their intervention thing for...no luck! I did end up keeping one Bella Materna that fits pretty good...support is iffy but supper comfy except the darn band rolls under the busts and messes up the support and fit so it slides around way more than I would like or a bra should! Then I tried with New Mother New Baby in Northbook where Hy and I are teaching BWing and CDing classes...she is going to order me an Anita in a 32 G (yes I know 32 and G!) I'm hoping that will fit....because in Bella Materna I'm like a 32 H/I! What the heck!

I want to write angry letters to all the bra manufacturers about lack of consistancy and lousy size selection!

But today I attempted to go to Betty Schwartz in Buffalo Grove because when I called I though they said they had 5 styles in 34 F and some in 32 G...yeah I heard WRONG they had 2...one Anita underwire (that darn brand has no size consistency) and a really old Leading Lady in a cotton soft cup...it even had the 3 step old hook and eye nursing "clip." If I wanted a plain old underwire I would have been all set as they did have a few of those to try!

Yeah and no exerciseing today though we are planning a family walk in a few min...hopefully Dan can wear Ruth down and transfer her to bed...I took too long being "held" down my a nursing toddler while typing...daddy says its too late!

Martha woke up with Dan this morning at 5:30! after going to bed at 10:30 or 11. And Ruth woke up just before 6am because Martha was being noisy talking with daddy in the bathroom! So I was a bad mom and put Martha in front of PBS for way too long and wore Ruth for some napping while I got all sorts of cleaning done in my kitchen...it looks quite nice...I even managed to load almost all the dinner dishes!

In retrospect I'm glad the girls woke up early as the grinding and what not to resurface our road was quite noisy at 7 am! I though it was really cool to watch the stuff being shot into the truck and what not Martha didn't care she was missing her show! After we got done "shopping" both girls were asleep and I though the loud uneven road was going to wake them up...it didn't and I sat in the car while they slept because transfering would end all the happy sleeping!

The road is a dusty icky mess! So I'm happy we didn't breath that in!
