Hi All:wave:
Just wondering if anyone knows a good place to try for larger sized maternity bras that come in smaller boob sizes??
Don't know why the bra companys all think that because we may be size 18-20 we all have size E or bigger boobs! :laughing:
Have been told that even though I can just fit into a size 18 bra, this is with hooks on loosest clip and have been told to start off with a bra on the tightest clips to allow room for later. Problem is the only Size 20 bras I can find seem to start with E of F cup size and I am a D.
Please tell me I'm not the only one with this problem!
I'm pretty sure Myer and David Jones carry brands that cater to that size range. I think Triumph have 18Ds.
I have the opposite problem ... 12Fs are impossible to find, it seems.
I went to have my maternity bras fitted at a lingerie boutique. It might have cost more but seriously it was the best thing. I was in between sizes so the store arranged to have the bras professionally altered for me so they will fit me for longer afterwards.

Try bodywise.com.au - they carry a wide range of very comfy maternity bras which I found good.

No- you are not the only on with this problem
I buy from bellaforma.com.au
they specialize in bigger sizes- and if it doesn't fit- you can send it back for free and they will keep sending you bras until you do find the right fit. Or you can get a refund or credit.
I've bought a few things from them and they've been great!

Thanks everyone for all your help. Glad to know I'm not the only one with problems like this!! :)
I ended up having a quick look in at Myers on the weekend and found a Triumph 20DD bra that didn't fit too bad. Was a bit too big in the cup but as I'm only 14 weeks I assume it won't be long before I'll be needing that extra room.
I also have just bought a 20D on eBay but it hasn't arrived yet. Hope this one might last me a few weeks at least.
Will keep Bras N Things in mind and specialty stores but hope I won't need to go down this expensive route if I can avoid it. Didn't honestly think DD would fit so I must have increased in size somewhat already!!
Thanks again!
