Cake Maternity Zest Nursing Sports Bra for Breastfeeding, Sports Maternity Bra

Perfect fit! Worth EVERY PENNY! I am a VERY large breasted athletic person and I am 36, having my first child, so let's just say i need the added support. I had several bras from destination maternity and motherhood and other places, but they didn't last more than a month or 2. I have to get my typical bras at a specialty store because the Victoria's Secret just doesn't cut it. Once I had the baby, I planned to continue breast feeding, and went back to work (I teach Physical Education) The typical maternity bras did not do anything functional and i couldn't wear my non-maternity bras. I found this and after reading EVERY review, bought one... Instant love! i can run in this bra- whether i have pumped or not, i can walk fast, i can demonstrate activities and not have to put my lady parts back in after falling out of the other "nursing bras" i had. The padding is not very thick, but it is surprisingly absorbent. It is a thick material, soft and flannel like on the outside and soft and thick nylon like on the inside. i have forgotten nursing pads a few times and unless there is a major leak, it holds small leaks very well without reaching the outer layer or shirts. I do typically (before pregnancy) wear a 36DD or 36E in my specialty bras, so i got 36E in this one and it FITS GREAT. It was a little tight, but it stretches well and supports even better. When i pump or nurse, the strap that the cup fastens in to holds so true to shape (this was an issue with all my other bras). I love the underwires, they are slightly wide to allow for full support but don't dig in on the sides. I would recommend this bra to any active, large breasted, nursing mother. The snaps are very thick and hold very well-they never unsnap unless i am intentionally opening them. I love the racerback option in the back. I only wish they were made in nude or white or black, so i could wear them under my typical clothes or dress clothes. You can see straight through because of the beautiful blue stripe. I wear camis under everything so it is no issue with me, but for anyone else, i think the support and durability of this bra it is so worth it!

First of all, Cake really needs to make 30 bands. I am a 30GG and I had to size up to a 32G. I am already wearing it on the last of 6 sets of hooks after one time of wearing it. I also own the Cake Sorbet nursing bra, and I will say that this bra runs slightly bigger in the band than that one. The straps, while comfortable, are not fully adjustable, and since I am short, I am unable to shorten them as much as I would like. The racerback clip shortens them a bit mire but I don't want to have to wear racerbacks always. Also, the "flexiwire" design does offer enough support to separate the breasts, but is not strong enough to get the center gore to tack, at least on larger sizes.The biggest drawback to this bra, though, is how shallow the cups are. I need deeper cups. I assume the shallowness is meant to help compress the breasts for support while exercising, but even so, these are too shallow. The weight of my breasts then pushes the wires further down on my ribcage and makes empty space at the bottom of the cup. After wearing this bra all day, the spot on my ribcage that the wires were pressing on became very sore, and was also sore the next day. If I were to size up in the cup enough so that this didn't happen, the cups would them be too large to offer any support.Despite all this, the bra is a lot more comfortable than I expected. I would not consider it "high impact" in my size, but moderate impact, sure. It is very well constructed. I love the modesty panel, though it does make it a bit challenging to put on sometimes. And I think the bra itself it pretty cute. It is no doubt the best option we nursing moms have in this category. I like it enough that I'd buy another one, but only if it went on sale.

The bra does fit well and it’s comfortable which is nice. It’s more supportive than say the Kindred Braverly soft “sports” bras which are basically bralettes when you have a large bust but it’s still not supportive enough for me to consider actually doing any sort of exercise in this. Well, maybe yoga or weights but any kind of cardio is completely out of the question. Also heads up that there’s no padding at all in the cups so get ready to show the world your huge breastfeeding nips. I do like it as a bra generally as it’s comfortable and has a tiny bit of support so I’ll be keeping this one but I definitely won’t be buying any more. It’s far too expensive to not be an actual sports bra. At this point I’ll probably just get an actual sports bra and change immediately before & after working out which I was trying to avoid as it’s a pain in the butt, but at least I’ll have support while working out.

This bra is NOT a High-Impact bra. This bra is like the Croissant bra with a mesh modesty panel. I put it on (it fit very well and it's super soft) and jogged in place for about 2 seconds and knew it wasn't going to work for me. There is nothing in this bra to stop the bounce factor and just that little bit of jogging in place hurt a LOT for several minutes afterward.I really, really, really wanted to love this bra. I have a couple Cake's Croissant nursing bras that I love and fit me very well so I thought this would be a good sports bra for me (even though $80 feels like a ridiculous amount to pay for a bra, but at a 38 J I don't have a lot of options).If money was no object I would definitely keep it as an every day bra, but I will be returning this and buying another Le Mystere which I know will work well, though sadly non-maternity, and a cup size too small as they only offer a G cup but no GG cup (in UK sizes, a G being a US I and a GG being a US J).Edited to add in: I bought this specifically for jogging/running (the whole "high-impact" thing). I think if I were looking for something for yoga, biking, or using weight machines at the gym it would have been okay.

ich habe inzwischen abgestillt und dieser Still-BH war mein treuer Begleiter bis zum Schluss. Er wurde Xmal gewaschen und getragen. Und deshalb kann ich wirklich guten Herzens diesen BH bewerten: Er ist wirklich toll für große Brüste. Nichts engt ein oder drückt. Auch als Sport-BH perfekt.Ich kann ihn uneingeschränkt empfehlen.

Me and my clients @christinabohanefitness have loved this product. It gives good support also for running. 3 hooks fastening for extra support from EE size. Racer back conversion clip hides bra straps nicely. Last but not least the drop down cups make it easy to feed your baby, literally straight after training.

Nachdem ich mehrere Still BH`s zurückschicken musste, weil diese keinen guten Halt und Passform für einen schweren Stillbusen (85 H) habe ich endlich einen passenden gefunden. Der Stoff ist fester, aber trotzdem angenehm auf der Haut. Die Träger lassen sich hinten zu einem X verhaken, dadurch kann man schnell den Busen höher einstellen. Das habe ich sehr oft genutzt, weil dadurch die Druckbelastung auf den Schultern sich anders verteilt. Der weiße Stoff zwischen den Cups ist meistens sichtbar, hat mich aber nicht gestört. Ich habe auch damit geschlafen, ist aber durch die Bügel nicht ganz so angenehm. Nachdem ich sehr lange gesucht habe, hoffe ich, dass meine Bewertung dazu beiträgt diesen BH schneller zu finden.

This bra is amazing! It felt so good to finally have proper support and be able to exercise. I measured as a 38DD and it's a tiny bit snug around the band but I think a bigger size would be too big.

Good product, I can jump again
