I just got nursing bras from Motherhood. I need underwire, so those were pretty comfortable. If you're at home, though, I'd highly recommend this:

I would recommend going to Nordstrom to get fitted, and let them know that you're pregnant and your breasts are going through changes in size - they may be able to help you find a bra that's comfortable and will allow you some room to grow.

Or, you can just go get a few cheapie bras at Target that work for you for now until you have the baby and your milk comes in and you need nursing bras.

Also, I hate trying on bras. I got so hot and sweaty and grumpy putting them on and off and adjusting straps...ew, the thought of it just makes me anxious.

ETA:  The other problem is that there are not many stores that carry large enough sizes to try on.  I think I'm like a 42F right now or something.  It's ridiculous.

i bought a nursing bra from university maternity. it's so comfortable and lovely. it's the same size, kinda, as my normal bra, but fits like heaven. you can't even really tell that there is wire. my boobs are forced to be open wider but whatever.. lol. my boobs aren't that big

I have done both of these.  The only one i found at target that fit properly is unlined, so i don't like wearing it every day (and it has giant straps that show with most of my shirts), but it fits well, was cheap and is comfortable.
I just went to nordstrom's for a fitting b/c nothing i have is fitting (except for the target bra) and while i was wearing the right size, i got a better bra and it's way more comfortable and flattering.  It was pricier than i prefer, though.  I saw bras up to 42(?)G, so it might bet worth a trip (or at least a call to find out if they have a selection in your size).

i don't love my nursing bras. i have two from target that i HATE and do not wear, i have two from motherhood maternity that i wear bc it's all i got.

Getting fitted at Nordstrom and buying a regular bra to hold me over until I need a nursing bra has been the best $60 I've spent this pregnancy. They should have your size, I wear a slightly unusual size too and they had them in the back.

How much?  Did they help you pick one?  Open wider is good for me, I that all smooshed up together.

yes. it was 43 i think after tax. they helped me pick and i told them my problem. she pulled out this one, and i grabbed one that looked like a sports bra. this one is lovely. that one sucked. let me try to figure out what brand it is.
