Cheap Nursing Bras

One of the most important things you need when breastfeeding are a couple of good nursing bras, but what if your budget is tight? You don’t want to compromise on quality but you still need to find nursing bras that won’t bust your budget.

When looking for cheap nursing bras consider the following:

•    It’s possible to find a decent nursing bra for around $11 – $15 at stores like Target (the Gilligan & O’Malley line comes to mind, you might want to read this Gilligan & O’Malley softcup nursing bra review). If the price is satisfactory, check the quality of the material.  You don’t want to wash it a few times and have it come apart.  You want a bra that will hold up. A lower price doesn’t mean you should put up with cheap quality.

•    Don’t skimp on fit.  It might be tempting to to buy a bra on clearance that isn’t quite your size, but resist the temptation. It will be pointless to purchase a cheap nursing bra if you end up not wearing it because it’s painful or just uncomfortable.

Search the Internet and local retail stores for cheap nursing bras and you are bound to find some good deals.  If you’re not opposed to the idea, you can check consignment sales and resale shops. You might find nursing bras that have had minimal use or even new with tags on them.

There are a few nursing bras available on Amazon.com that are surprisingly cheap. Here are a few:
Leading Lady Black Softcup Nursing Bra – $8.95

Motherhood stretch fabric underwire with soft cup full coverage nursing bra – $11.98
Gilligan & O’Malley® Underwire Nursing Bra – $12.98
