I recently had my second child and I'm getting back into a fitness routine. I am breastfeeding and the problem is that none of my old sports bras fit anymore. I am looking for something that has a lot of support amd is breathable. I'd be overjoyed to find one that wicks the sweat away. If you have a sports bra you love and fits this criteria, please let me know. Thanks.

I have one that I got at Intimacy at Phipps. It wasn't cheap but I LOVE it. It was worth every penny

I have found a very good sports bra at Victorias secret. It has awesome support, it helps you stay dry. they are kind of price-y... But they work. And you can try them on before you buy!!!

Good question! I work out quite frequently and prefer my Champion sports bras to my others. I've read a lot about bras and I've read that the least amount of stretch in a bra, the better. You want those babies to sit still on your chest. The Champion bra I have is a heavy cotton, not the wicking kind. It's got a small key hold opening in the back. Just so you know, I also like dri fit sports gear, but the sweat is gonna go somewhere...if you're wearing cotton underwear or socks it will just drip there instead. That's why I don't mind cotton bras, my underwear stays dry :-) Good luck...
oh, p.s. After having my 2 girls, I was starving all the time too (I read your next post). If you're making smart decisions, go you! I say, if you're breastfeeding and active and your body is craving food, then feed it. Have fun :-)

Been there needed that, the champion sports bras are the best. I also understand your desire to loose the baby fat and get back to normal. I market a fantastic product that is of medical grade for postpartum women that will get you back to normal and maximize your workout effort. There is also a bra that will support you and allow breast feeding at the same time. Check out my website: www.instantimagebuilder.com; select see more after the video or call me @ ###-###-####

Intimacy ( store at Phipps Plaza that does custom fitting) has a great one, you don't get the uniboob look with it either.

If you're looking for a nursing sports bra, I found one at Babies R Us (Motherhood brand) which works fairly well. It's not my favorite versus other non-nursing sports bras, but it is good enough to use while the baby is younger and needs more frequent nursing.

I just started running in July, and have always avoided it because I am large-chested (38 DD-DDD). I tried on a MILLION sports bras, and found one I LOVE. It's Champion Double Dry, style #6242. It's a full underwire that is very well-cushioned. It has a wide band and excellent wicking. It has great velcro adjustable straps and a back closure. I found it initially at Kohl's for $42, but recently found it on sale on Amazon for about $28. I have NO bounce and can run a few miles with no problem. GREAT find!
