Who has received their Elle Macpherson nursing bras?

How are they? Also, did you wait until your milk came in before you measured and ordered? I told DH that I was going to buy some nice nursing bras this time around, and he freaked at the price. Oh well, hopefully its worth it. Thanks,

I received mine - I got one of each style at figleaves. According to their measurement I should be a 34C which is what I ordered but they don't fit right. The Maternelle cups are too big and the La Mere cups are too small :( For both the band is too big considering it fits on the tightest setting now it will be huge after I deliver. There are TONS of rows of hooks, too - at least 6 maybe more! I'm going to return mine and try a 32D. I ordered mine at 23 weeks pg, BTW. I think the Maternelle style would be really forgiving cup size wise if you're engorged a few days.

FWIW, I just got a catalog from Motherwear nursing and they have some pretty bras, too! One looks similar to the Maternelle style one and far cheaper at $24.
