Yasmin Awarded The Mamaway Ultra Breezy Crossover Nursing Sleep Bra 4.5/5
I liked the colour and material. Simple packaging and arrived quickly. Simple design, light to touch fabric and lightweight product. Product was self-explanatory, and the guidance included such as washing instructions were easy to follow. The product fitted perfectly and matched their sizing chart. Very comfortable and able to wear all day without feeling restricted. I felt the crossover gave me added support when comparing to more traditional style of maternity bras. I felt supported all day long. The cups did move out of place a couple of times so I did need to readjust the positioning of them. I’ve been very active when wearing the bra and found that the fabric kept keep me cool, even in the warmer weather. I felt the Skinlife fabric which is antibacterial and anti-odour properties was effective. After wearing all day in the warm weather, no odour was present and fabric maintained its effectiveness. Overall the cups were effective. However, at times the cups did move of place so I needed to readjust their positioning. Under the majority of clothing it did look like a normal bra. However under lighter fabrics you could see the lining of the bra. I wore the bra most days since receiving it. I wore the bra mostly while doing the shopping, visiting family, going for walks and to work. Easy to keep clean and recommend following the washing instructions provided and air drying. The lightweight and breathable fabric avoids skin irritation and the material has some stretch to it. This means it’s comfortable to wear and will be suitable for my breastfeeding journey. I don’t think it looks like a nursing bra. I plan on wearing this for the rest of my pregnancy and while breastfeeding. However, I think beyond that I would go back to more traditional bras for extra support. The fabric, it’s soft and breathable, even after washing which I really like. Good quality bra, however the removable cups do come out of place after a busy day. Considering the price and quality I would pay for this product. I would buy this as it is nice to wear, provides comfort all day long and is reasonably priced. I would recommend for he same reasons. I love this product and feel it’s good value for money. However, the cups do come out of place at times which isn’t ideal. Overall, I’ve had a positive experience with this product. It washes well and I can wear it all day without feeling uncomfortable which is great. It offers good support; however I do feel it could benefit from adjustable straps so you can adjust as needed. As I’ve mentioned in my review, the cups can come out of place which isn’t ideal but not a huge issue. I feel the quality of the bra is great for the price and would buy this product in the future if a new bra is needed. Yasmin White – 29 Weeks Pregnant

Lovely and soft material. Nice colour. Wasn’t sure if it would be supportive enough though. Lovely design and colour and really looks good and is super soft. Instructions pretty straight forward (not my first nursing bra) so didn’t pay too much attention to the fine details. This was a good fit but could have dropped down a size so comes up a little large I would say. Absolutely so comfortable to wear. It’s my go to for overnight/ nighttime as it’s so comfortable and holds my breasts in at least. Loved the cross over as it gives the illusion of more support however, it didn’t support quite as well as I had hoped. It’s a lovely bra but it doesn’t support as well as some of the ones out there. I didn’t really rate the support that great. The breathable fabric 100% kept me cool. It’s so soft to wear and around the house, it will be my go to bra for nursing. I’m quite hygienic and I would say the antibacterial and anti-odour properties weren’t put to the test with me however, I didn’t ever feel too hot in it or feel clammy. I loved the 3D removable cups which offer light shaping and support without compressing. The whole bra would stretch around my breasts as are getting fuller. This looked like a normal bra under clothing. It is thin enough to not stand out through t-shirts or vests. I would wear this 2-3 times a week. Mostly wore overnight and around the house if I wasn’t going out. Easy to wash with the removable pads which I washed separately. I am not breastfeeding yet but I do agree this would be ideal to use for ease of use, comfort and style. I will say that it wouldn’t be an out the house bra I would choose. I would probably not wear this after breastfeeding as I’m larger than I would be normally in both width and breast size and this has come up larger than I thought. I loved the softness of this bra. Really food quality. It is a great bra however, I would say if this was priced at £15-£20 would be more affordable. I would buy this as so soft and easy to wear/use if breastfeeding. I must admit a nice bra but not one I would go out of my way to recommend. The softness and style are great. Support is lacking I feel. Love the material and the colour/style but there is no way to tighten the straps so if you did want more support. Juliet Herniman – Mum To Be

The bra was a nice colour and material seemed very soft. Looked well designed and not ‘frumpy’. I liked the crossover design and that it had proper bra fastening rather than the ‘sports bra’ style with no fastening at the back. I would say this bra is self-explanatory. I had chosen to size up as I was conscious that being pregnant can cause rib cage to expand etc. Also when nursing last time, my boobs could be quite full and so I wanted to allow extra room. The fit was comfortable but I felt like the size of the cup/straps meant that it sat quite close to my armpit which I found irritating. However, one thing to note is that I am not currently nursing as I am not due until June. The fit may be different when nursing and full of milk. I liked the idea and design however I have not trialled this when actually nursing so cannot comment on its suitability. This has been a supportive bra during my pregnancy. Worn on several warmer days and felt good. Especially as when I would be first using this product when nursing, it’ll be in the summer so something lightweight would be ideal. The fabric certainly helped with antibacterial protection and anti-odour properties. Had no issues with odour. Didn’t sleep in it but felt comfortable yet supportive still. It is quite obviously a nursing bra and isn’t so discreet. I feel like it would be difficult to wear with more summery clothes like vest tops or anything with a plunge/v neck/scoop neck because of crossover. I would only wear with certain tops. I wore this once a week. Would wear while lounging around. One day I wore it out and this is when I found it most irritating/difficult to style. Very easy to keep clean. I don’t know whether it would be as ‘easy’ to wear when nursing in summer. However, I think it’s great for a more lounging bra for the evenings or overnight. Different style which is nice to have options too. Have gone for more of the clip down ones previously so it is something different and I am intrigued to see how I like it when actually nursing. Feels like it’ll be more discrete to feed in. I really loved the soft material. The quality is very good. Perhaps 2 for £30 would be reasonable. I feel like you end up washing nursing bras a lot so I appreciate being able to get more in a pack. If this was sold in a multipack I would consider buying. I would recommend due to the lightweight material and other benefits. Mostly comfortable fit. A much more relaxed nursing bra and great for wearing overnight I would imagine. I found it less convenient when wearing during the day due to the wide more vest like ‘straps’. As I have said, I am not currently nursing so cannot comment on how this works in practice.
