Simple Wishes Pumping Bra Hands Free, Comfortable & Adjustable

I haven't had the best luck with finding a nursing bra. I tried the Medela for a day, it wasn't comfortable and the zipper broke after 2 uses. Then I did the whole home hack and cut holes in my sports bra. I used that for 6 months. Then after being back at work a few months and getting tired of having to remove my shirt and bra every time I decided I needed a better way. Having the bad experience with the Medela one turned me off to buying a pumping bra, but I'm SUPER glad I gave this one a chance. I'll elaborate on what makes this better than the Medela and why I am in love with it (I'm uploading a few pics that help). The positives: -Perfect fit: This is what makes this the best bra out there. The other positives are just bonus. This had a few different features that will help almost anyone get a great fit. First, the back panel of the bra has a Velcro panel, so you can make it tighter or looser to fit perfect. I am a 36D right now, I ended up moving the sides in about an inch on each side and it fits perfect! There's also a small cloth section with a zipper on each side that you can zip into the middle. This will spread the nipple holes a little wider if your breasts are further apart. I didn't use this section, but I can imagine it would be helpful for some. With the Medela pumping bra there is no areas you can adjust. According to their sizing chart I was at the top end of a medium. I wondered if I should buy the large, but I figured I'd go with what their size chart said. It was a horrible fit! Medela has 6 different sizes! It's very hard to find the right size without going and trying them on. -Flange holes: The cloth holding the flanges in place has vertical and horizontal sections. They stay in place very well. There's absolutely no slipping. I can also squeeze my one piece Medela flange through the hole, which I couldn't with the Medela pumping bra. The Medeal bra has a small circular hole, which isn't nearly as great of a design. -Straps: This bra has optional straps. I haven't put them on yet, but I think I will. I would like having the little added support. -Reversible: This bra can be used with the zipper either going down to up, or up to down. There are bra strap clips on the top and bottom. I like wearing it with the zipper going from the bottom up because it's easiest to do since I'm used that. But, the package says if you want to use manual pressure to get more milk out, you do the zipper reversed, unzip it a little way and then you can compress your breasts to get extra milk out. -Material: This is extremely soft and comfortable! The negatives: -NONE!!! Well, I guess price can be considered a negative. But, with how much money that I would spend on formula, spending a few bucks extra on a good bra is worth it. Let me start off by addressing something I read in a review. With my bra received a coupon to buy a 2nd bra for half off (plus $5 shipping) if I wrote a review. There was nothing saying it had to be a positive review. It would cost me about $24 for a second one (if I remember right). I chose not to buy another because I don't feel like I need 2 of them. But someone had said they would get a free one if they wrote a positive review. Maybe that was the case and now it's changed, I don't know. But, I'm writing a good review because it's a good product, not because I get a free bra. Next, it took me a few tries to figure out how to get the bra and parts on and in the right spot. I had problems with my sports bra method with getting the breast shield directly over my nipple (I know it's almost TMI, but we're all breastfeeding moms, right?). With this one I tried a few methods. I've figured out that I like putting the bra on and zipping it up half way. Then I stick the skinny part of the breast shield through the hole on the inside and then center it over where it needs to go. Then I do the other side, center it over. Then I zip it up the rest of the way. I've always had great placement this way. This method doesn't work for my all-in-one breastpump supplies, but I don't use those quite as much. Overall, if you are going to be pumping, whether it's a little or a lot, I recommend this! I can now wear my nursing bra, unhook it, put this pumping bra on top and then when I'm done I unhook and I'm good to go. This saves me a massive amount of time!

This hands-free breastpump bra, is hands down (or up, or really wherever you want them!) the best investment you can make for your pumping efforts -- besides a quality pump, of course. Thus far, I have only been using this bra at home (I go back to work later this week), but I have managed to pump nearly 70 ounces using this bra, and I can't imagine doing it any other way. It makes pumping such a breeze, and frees my hands up to do other things (or even just relax). In fact, I'm wearing it and pumping RIGHT NOW, as I type this review at 80 wpm! I use the Ameda Purely Yours, and the flanges fit and hold perfectly. I can't imagine a flange for any pump that wouldn't work. The bra holds the flanges snug and securely against my breast, without being constricting or uncomfortable at all. It feels like I'm just wearing my favorite sports bra. The fabric is very soft and would be comfortable to wear all day, if you wish (and you can add straps to it, to facilitate this). I find it easy enough to throw on over my bra, with the nursing flaps folded down, whenever I'm ready to pump. Sizing the bra was easy. I bought the XS/S/M size. I typically wear size Medium or size 10 tops. My bust is a 36D. There's a Velcro panel on the back that you can adjust as much or as little as you need. I have mine attached about an inch from each edge of the piece. There is also an extender piece that zips on/off in the front, allowing you to make it a little bigger, and also to adjust where the holes are so they line up with where your nipples are. I do not need to use that extender piece. With my sizing, I'd say I'm at the upper end of the size range for the XS/S/M size. Regardless, it fits perfectly and comfortably, and I don't see any reason why I'd need to size up. I've been using it for 2.5 months now, and it still looks brand new. The quality and construction are great, and I see no reason it won't last me a long time. I really can't imagine pumping without it. The only time I've ever not used it was when I've used a manual pump, but it's such a drag having to hold the pump against your breast -- I can't imagine trying to double pump without it (and having to hold the flanges onto your breasts with one or both hands -- certainly not relaxing!). It's nice to have your hands free to read a book, fiddle with the switches on the pump, continue doing your work, or even to do breast compressions if you need a little extra help with pumping. And since being relaxed is key to pumping well, this bra makes that so much easier, making it truly a must have!

I absolutely love it!! I didn't want to get it at first b/c I honestly thought it was a waste of money... I mean I get the concept of it and all but I just thought that it was another worthless gimmick- like one of those infomercial useful products that you end up spending all that money because there are always some hidden costs somewhere that you were unaware of, so you basically end paying a fortune for a crappy product that you eventually end up tossing. My husband is the one that MADE me get it, he had to literally beg be to give this a shot! And boy was I glad I did!!!! I was BEYOND wrong- this thing really does work beyond my expectations--- it blew my away!!!.I am hands free now! I can browse the web, play/talk on the phone, read a book, etc... heck I can even fold the laundry and cook with this puppy! I just hook myself up to the closest outlet and I am ready to rock and roll, I am mean the opportunities of what I can now do while wearing this bra are just endless for me! The bra is adjustable (on the back via Velcro closure) so you can wear it to your liking.I make it pretty tight and that helps with actually getting more milk out and faster...instead of constantly having to squeeze my breasts here and there manually, the bra already does that for me! There inst one bad thing I can say about this bra, only great things as I am truly in love, it has made my life so much easier and pumping so much more pleasant....as pumping was always the worst chore for me ever, but I did it anyway because you just gotta sacrifice for your little angel. I feel like I am not just wasting my time by constantly just sitting there and pumping as I can literally multitask! And now especially since I have two babies now, time is EVERYTHING..... I NEED to put my time to good use! And another great thing about this product is how wonderful of a quality it is--- this bra holds up like no ones business! I've been exclusively pumping for my 2 babies for almost 2 years now and the bra still functions as good as new, no tears or anything, it washes really well and is still in wonderful shape. I really do recommend this to EVERYONE. I have recently purchased another one for my sister in law, and will be borrowing one to my best friend to use with her baby! Best Invention for pumping mothers ever!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH SIMPLE WISHES! Now, I think I should be a spokes person for the company because there isn't a mother that I know that I don't rave to about this product! A true God sent! :)

I had no idea what to expect in regards to pumping bras and was a little leery buying one at all. I had to get one in order to pump at work though, so after reading reviews I settled on this Simple Wishes bra. It has been a great buy for me. Before I had this I could only pump one side at a time and that was very time consuming. I couldn't really read or eat or do anything other than listen to music, I was worried about spilling the milk and it was difficult to massage hard spots with one hand while holding the pump flange with the other. With this bra I can pump both sides and have my hands free to read, eat, work on the computer. I've noticed that I don't get as many hard spots now, and my milk production when I use this to pump with increases by half an ounce. That my not be a lot to you, but I only make about two ounces a session so to me half an ounce increase is a big deal! I pump with an avent dual electric pump and the avent bottle pumping equipment fits well with this bra. The only problem I encounter is really with the avent pump in general, the massage cusion cups that cover the flanges are easily removed. If I'm not careful removing the equipment from the bra then the cups can come off and spill some milk. I haven't tried any other pumps so I don't know if that is an issue with them as well. The bra itself is comfortable and easy to wear. It holds the bottles and such very securely once I sized it to my body. I played around with the extra zipper section but did not need it. The back is also much more adjustable than normal bras, it is secured with a very sturdy Velcro. I was concerned when I first saw the Velcro but it has not slipped at all during use and has remained secured. This bra did come with some removable straps, I have them attached but the bra remains secured just as well without them. I don't wear this bra to work, but rather take it with me in my pump bag and change into in my pumping room. I haven't tried pumping during my commute, but I have used this bra over nursing blouses and nursing bras successfully. This bra does what it says it can do, and it does it well. It is versatile and comfortable.

I’ve been having a really hard time trying to pump while bottle-feeding my daughter at the same time because I’m currently triple feeding. It was becoming overwhelming, and I was honestly feeling very discouraged because I just couldn’t keep up. Since I didn’t have many other options, I decided to give this bra a try, and I’m so glad I did! It fits perfectly and It is comfortable, holds my pump securely, and works exactly as I hoped. I was a little hesitant to order the XS-L size after reading some of the reviews, but I trusted the seller’s size chart based on my regular bra size, and it fit me perfectly. This bra has made the triple feeding process so much easier. It has given me hope again because now I can pump more often, which is really important since I have a low milk supply. Being hands-free has made such a huge difference, and I’m so happy with this purchase. I highly recommend it!

This bra has been such a lifesaver during my pumping journey. I'm a freshly postpartum FTM who has never tried any other pumping bras but has tried the "hack" with nursing bra straps which did not work for me at all. This bra fits my Spectra perfectly. I really like the sizing options. I struggled so hard during my pregnancy to find bras that fit me due to my ribcage expanding despite being smaller chested so the Simple Wishes bra has been wonderful. I think it's going to make pumping easier when I go back to work. I could not be happier!

It’s a very comfortable material and fit and it holds my spectra pump cups up well! Only thing to consider is that I don’t use it much anymore cause I have noticed that the bands cause clogged ducts or worsen any clogged ducts that are starting for me, even when I’ve tried to losen the bra because of where the bands of the bra land on me. I end up have to hold the top band of the bra away to prevent this.

This bra changed my life. As a new mom of twins, I had to start pumping immediately, from the first day in the hospital. When I got home, that first week was bliss but filled with exhaustion and chaos in terms of schedule. Every time I had to pump I just wanted to cry--I was so frustrated because not only could I do nothing with my hands, I couldn't even adjust the pump because I couldn't manage the "hold-the-flanges-on-with-one-arm" trick the lactation consultant had shown me. When this bra arrived everything changed. Later that evening I was sitting on the couch pumping with glass of wine in one hand and Netflix control in the other. It was amazing! This bra works. It does look like some sort of crazy kinky getup, and you feel kind of ridiculous wearing it, but it's 100% WORTH IT ALL. Once you get set up you can just press "start" and forget it. The one-size fits all is also good. It wasn't clear to me how this could be possible before purchasing, but basically the bra is held together in the back by a strong Velcro band that you can adjust to a variety of sizes. It also comes with a strip of extra fabric that you can zip into the middle closet area in front to accommodate varying widths/space between breasts/etc. I got XL and it's working fine, but I'm already down to the last spaces on the Velcro strap. So I'm pretty sure the regular size would have worked just as well, and that the XL would work for someone up to 3X or 4X in size. A few recommendations: use the extra shoulder straps provided. They make it more supportive and help hold your shirt (if it's not a nursing top) out of the way, and make it easier to put on quickly--you just put your arms through the straps and adjust then zip up, as opposed to having to twist the bra around your back first. Zip up over your shirt but with your boobs out already, then unzip 70% of the way and position your flanges. Once they are in place (don't worry they'll stay pretty well) zip up completely. I usually sit on the couch to pump, so it's actually helpful to position the bottles angles a bit to the outside and upwards, instead of straight up and down. When they are straight I find the bottles touch my thighs and are easier to displace, but if they're angled a bit I can move around without disturbing the placement. I plan to use this when I have to go back to work to pump. Won't be doing that for several more months, but the way the bar works it will be easy to slip it on over my clothes and nursing bra just like I do at home. And honestly, although I hope this never happens, when completely zipped the bra is discreet enough that nothing would be revealed if someone accidentally walked in. And I'd feel comfortable using this in my office with my female office mate present instead of having to schedule and go all the way to the lactation room.

Le soutif pour aider à l'allaitement est très pratique! Par contre, la taille est juste mais impossible de deviner à l'avance! Mais sinon rien à redire.. sinon j'adore!

My life has changed after using it. رائعة! تغيرت حياتي بعدما استخدمتها الحمدلله تثبت الأقماع زين 👍

product is as advertised, good quality

My original order went missing which left me nervous that I was going to get screwed, but Amazon refunded me and I decided to reorder. As someone who is plus sized with large breasts, I felt like my options were limited so I just hoped for the best the second time. The bra arrived on time and in great condition. It works perfectly for me, and I can pump entirely hands free which I wasn't sure would be the case even with this bra!

Very like this product and you don't need to worry about the size, it's adjustable. comfortable as well. I have been researched many different brands of the breastpump bra, this one is adjustable and good quality.
