Same here. I got mainly no underwire bras for normal, at-home days. (Wire can block a duct.) I got nice underwire ones for days out. I didn't buy my nicer bras until about 1 month into nursing. That way I knew what size I was.

I bought 4 nursing tanks. Nice on summer days and quite essential (IMO) for the winter when your shirt is up half the time. I bought 2 white, one grey and one black.

I used the Lansinoh too.

Only complaint is that it stains your bras, so make sure you are okay with that.

The Medela doesn't work as well as Lansinoh bc Lansinoh is purified lanolin, which is what is recommended by docs. I love my Medela nursing sleep bras though! You can get them at BRU.

Re: Medela Nipple Cream?

Personally I liked the Medela cream better than the Lansinoh but I'm sure that is just a personal preference. Lansinoh's was very gooey while the Medela one is lighter and oilier. I started off with the Lansinoh but I got samples of Medela at the hospital and ended up switching.

I originally started with 2 nursing sleeping bras, 1 nursing sports bra, and 1 underwire nursing bra. I found the underwire bra to be uncomfortable. I know most girls on here like the sports bra but I like the sleeping bras best. They are most comfortable for me. I ended up ordering 5 more in the mail. I leak through them often.
