This is a good bra, but has room for improvement. First, it doesn't support me the way a nursing bra should, and I'm at the very smallest measurement for the size I ordered. Larger sized women would get even less support. While the band elastic does lay flat, the cups don't offer much support leaving the seam connecting the elastic and cups to rub underneath the breast. Second, the lack of adjustment in the band size means it's a little lose on me (since I am at the smaller end of the size range) and would be too tight on larger women. It's probably better as a nighttime bra. The Elle McPherson Maternelle bra is much more supportive.

I wear these bras daily. They are comfortable and supportive. My only complaint is that the back is very high, so you cannot wear them with some summer tops or tops with a lower back. Even some dress tops show in the back, so I'll need to buy another bra for those tops. Otherwise, I'd recommend these as the only one you need.

This is a popular bra but is not as good as other comparably priced nursing bras on the market. My favorite is The Best Nursing Bra Ever by Title Nine. In a nursing bra, you want comfort, support, the ability to open/close the cup one-handed. You'll also want some flexibility in the sizing - you'll find that you can be different cup sizes at different times during the day and depending upon when baby last ate. The Title Nine bra is more comfortable, is adjustable in the back (whereas the Bravado is not) as well as in the cup (and the Bravado is not), and it's also more attractive (though frankly no one looks "sexy" in a nursing bra...). This bra is supportive enough to run in, but you may want to adjust to the smallest cup size so you have adequate support.
The one area where this Bravado bra has an edge is in its ease to open/close with one hand. This might be important to you if you anticipate nursing in public. You can be a bit more discreet if you can slip one hand up your shirt and connect, rather than using two hands.

This bra is absolutely the best. They arrived last week and I tried them on to be sure they fit properly. I loved how they felt so I decided to wear them before needing them for nursing. They are very comfortable and the fit is wonderful. I ordered the blush, butterscotch and beige. They all match my skin tone very nicely even though I have an ruddy complexion. Comfort is an important issue with me and these are by far the best bra I have owned. The price was excellent for a bra of this quality. I would recommend these to anyone who is looking for ease and support that looks natural.

This is one of the first nursing bras I purchased, mainly because it doesn't have underwire. It is super comfortable and doesn't cut in under the armpits like some of the other bras I've purchased. The only downside is the straps are thicker at the base (when they scoop in) and show from under a lot of my shirts, but I've found this to be a common problem.
