For those of you who still want some femininity even though you’re currently a milk machine, Dairy Fairy has some pretty but practical bras. Made from nylon and lycra, the openings at the front of each breast will allow double or single pumping, or pumping and breastfeeding.

These openings can accommodate the flanges of most breast pumps, and once in place, they’ll leave you hands-free. This bra can be worn all day, although it may not sit well under thin clothes. Sizes available range from 30A to 40H, but this bra might not give a lot of support in the bigger sizes.
