Essential Pump&Nurse All in One Nursing and Hands Free Pumping Bra, US Company, Black XS

My favorite nursing/hands free pumping bra so far! I’ve had a hard time finding a comfortable fit in a nursing bra in general, let alone a nursing bra that can double as a hands free pumping bra. Many other nursing bras I’ve tried have had uncomfortable fabric, irritating or scratchy hardware around the band (or clasp-less bands that are too tight or difficult to pull on overhead, especially in those early days of sore nipples) or unwieldy drop down clips for nursing access. I absolutely love that this bra is made of soft stretchy fabric with just the right amount of weight, support and give. It’s easy to pull on overhead and I really appreciate the all-in-one functionality - comfortable and supportive enough for all day wear and without any needed accessories for pumping. My breast pump flanges have stayed nicely in place while I do my hair and makeup (although I do that less often these days!) or play with my baby. I am so thankful to have found this bra before my upcoming return to work! My only small complaint is that the fabric seems just the slightest bit bulky when pulled down/to the side for regular nursing, although I may notice it a little more than others because I often have to be more hands on with breast compressions while nursing to keep my little one engaged. All in all a great bra (and seems true to the sizing chart, too! I always find others’ measurements helpful, so I’ll include my own (even though they are not precise so interpret them with a grain of salt!) in hopes that they may help another new parent who may be too tired to properly measure (although measuring is probably still the best way to guarantee a good fit!): I was probably closest to a 34 A/B prepregnancy, now I’m up about two cups sizes and 20 lbs from my prepregnancy weight of 105 lbs; medium fits me well and seems like it would be forgiving both up and down sizes).

I own two of the Rumina's Relaxed Nursing Bras and I literally have worn no other bra since I received the first one in the mail. Only days after my son's birth I found myself with cracked and bleeding nipples from breastfeeding. Because providing my son with breastmilk was so important to me I started pumping so I could heal, provide him with breastmilk and keep up my supply with the hopes of breastfeeding again some day. I was pumping every 2-3 hours, even in the night, and desperately needed a hand-free pumping bra. I originally ordered a strapless, zip-up-the-front style bra from another company. It worked alright, but it was tedious to undress every time I needed to put it on, especially at night when I was sleep-deprived. I was also recovering from a c-section, and physically not feeling like myself yet. The weather was still cold and the constant dressing and undressing with supersensitive bleeding and scabbed nipples was enough to make me want to give up on breastfeeding/pumping altogether. Finally, the fabric was too thick to properly massage my breasts to help with maximum milk output. I found the Rumina relaxed fit bra on Amazon during a midnight pump and in desperation decided to give it a try. It was the answer to my prayers! It's comfortable enough to wear 24/7, which I do, which is why I have two. No more undressing to pump! The fabric is thin and comfortable and I can easily massage my breasts during pumping. I'm breastfeeding again, and can fairly easily breastfeed in this bra! I also like the double layer of fabric that covers the nipples for a number of reasons (prevents nipping out, keep me warm, extra fabric helps absorb any leaking milk). For reference I'm fairly small chested. Pre-baby I was a 34 A/B, and now 36 B/C. If I was any smaller chested I don't know if it would work...the cups might be too loose. Overall I love this bra. I imagine I'll be wearing it for many months to come, and I'm fine with that! With being a new mom comfort and convenience is paramount and this bra fits the bill! I highly recommend it!

This is amazing for moms who have to pump a lot and still nurse. My son was in the NICU so he was primarily bottlefed breast milk I would pump, but we attempted breastfeeding as well. I enjoyed not having to change bras or add anything to my bra when pumping and it was easy to nurse in. The material is lightweight which is nice for sleeping or for casual wear. My only complaint is that the band does not provide much support as it pulls off your chest when you move. It is comfortable, though, and for the convenience of just being able to go from nursing to pumping it is definitely worth trying.

Update: after using for 2 weeks, I am so annoyed that the size Medium will not hold in my breasts. They spill out a lot!! The shoulder straps have also started to hurt. Since I can’t return this product anymore, I won’t wear this anywhere in public. This will be most likely my last nursing bra option when it comes down to wearing it. The seams pinch my nipple when my breasts are spilling out. I still use it at night because I like to sleep on my back and with this at least the only good thing out of it is, helping my breasts not go to the sides. I really love how it makes my breasts look. Even if that’s not the point of this 2-in-1 bra. It’s not itchy or super soft. Some of the cross over points/seams from the inside of the bra bother me a little. It is comfortable at the shoulders and does contain the breasts from spilling on the sides, however I did follow the size guide and got myself a Medium— I’m a 34F and I wish I would have just got a Large. I did my first pumping session today and with the bra being a little too tight, it was hard to position the flange as smoothly and quick one would think. The material is stretchy but because I got a medium, the seams did pinch as I was adjusting the flange inside. Anyways, I normally pump an average of 4oz on each side but wearing this bra and maybe being a bit too snug only got me 2oz on each side. I really wanted to favorite this bra over the other ones I have, this should have been my favorite first pumping/nursing bra but because of the flaws I personally encountered with, it’s only going to be a good nursing bra. I can easily slip my breast out and it’s comfortable enough to sleep in. I really want to make it clear that It is only snug when I insert my pumping flanges. It’s not at all tight at the front nor the shoulders just a bit around the bust. For the price I would recommend anyone to try this bra out, I would recommend going 1 size up than what the Sizing guideline suggest. I’m going to think about ordering a 2nd one in a large.

Love this bra! I was looking for a bra that I could simultaneously breastfeed and pump with, and came across this bra. Unlike the other bras that have the clip on the strap, this one is totally wireless and has several layers so that you can insert the pumping flange. It's very comfy, and makes it super easy for me to be able to pump and breastfeed at the same time. The holes are large enough that I can stick the flange in from the outside. I had found that with my Simple Wishes pumping bra, in addition to having to go through the effort of putting it on when ready to pump, the flanges on my pump were too large so it would have to be inserted from the inside, which was an additional hassle. Especially when you're dealing with a hungry baby. With the Rumina bra, I already have it on, so all I have to do is stick the pumping flange in on one side, and then lift or lower (depending on your preference) the other side to breastfeed. I got this Relaxed version as well as the Classic, and haven't noticed a significant difference. But even with the breastfeeding, my boobs are still small so that's probably why. This bra turned out to be the product I was hoping it would be, and now it's all I wear. Best of all, it's reasonably priced- half the price of the Dairy Fairy Arden bra, which was another bra I came across in my search (but haven't tried).

I want to love this. I want to even just like it. But I don’t. I’ve ordered and worn the M and the L. I’m generally a 38C/D. The M is way too tight in the shoulder strap and the under band. But the tightness provides support so that my boobs aren’t everywhere. However when it comes time to pump the “engorgement” proves that tight isn’t always best. Directions for purchasing say that the bra should be loose so there’s room for engorgement. Enter the L and it’s like jumping from a S to XL. It’s too damn big and provides zero support and no coverage. The sizing is just extremely off here. Boobs are heavy. Big boobs are even heavier. Boobs filled with milk- you guessed it- heavier!!!! Why are they still making these nursing/pumping bras with zero shoulder support?? The bands aren’t even an inch wide. There’s no support. If you’re boobs are saggy as most are- these will not provide any support to make up for there being no underwire. I have plenty of sports bras that provide more support than this so I know it’s possible. As I said with the M because it’s so tight there is support but the L should provide it also. The L is so loose that it’s more consistent with a “slip” and the straps actually fall off of my shoulders- normal and engorged. How does this help me? It doesn’t. Id say there’s a good 2” (possibly more) of extra material on the shoulders themselves. It causes me to scrunch up my shoulders to prevent it from falling and that’s the worst possible position to be in when nursing or pumping and is generally uncomfortable anyway. The coverage over the breast is also lacking. So much that the nursing pads stick out- on the M there is great coverage but again it’s too tight. The white is pretty see through also so I’m not able to treat this like a sports bra and just wear this around the house when we have company. I’d say try both sizes whatever you fall in on the chart. But keep in mind you won’t get to know if this works until you see it a few times and at that point the merchandise is probably not refundable. I’d even skip this all together and find something else. The only pros I can give this- the material is comfortable and the under and width is ok. Update: I’ve since washed it and it offered no shrinkage which I hope it would. After a day or two of wearing it I feel like it gets looser and then the pump parts don’t fit properly. It’s a shame no won’t be wearing this again and I’ll donate it

I purchased this to use for pumping primarily, which I do 8 times a day so comfort is essential for me. I’m 34-36 DD right now, and I pump a lot of milk per session. So my bra has to be comfortable and be able to support two bottles with 5-6 oz each. I usually use simple wishes bra which I have to put on after I take off my regular bra. I also have to put on a different nursing bra for nursing my daughter. So I REALLY wants to love this product that theoretically can be used for both nursing and pumping. Well... it sort of doesn’t really work for either. If you’re pumping the holes for the flanges are facing to the side so as the bottles fill they slide down and you have to support them with your hands. That defeats the purpose of hands free bra! Also, when the flange slides to the side it pinches the side of your boob which is not ideal. So for pumping I would not use this at all, 1/5 stars. For nursing it’s slightly better but still not good. The fabric is stretchy but you have to pull it really far to the side to expose your breast for baby. First, it’s uncomfortable. Second, I don’t know how you could do this outside if you’re trying to nurse discretely. 2/5 stars for nursing. Disappointed. Really wanted to like this product. Went back to using my simple wishes bra. Maybe this would work better for someone with smaller chest but if you’re my size and your nipples are not set very far apart - this probably won’t work for you.

As I new mom I have spent hours and hours combing the internet for affordable combination nursing&pumping bras. While there are some great nursing only options out there, it’s such a pain to have to strap on a separate pumping harness every time. And since I am living in these bras and need several I can’t fathom having to drop upwards of $50 (or more) a bra! I bought one of these and later placed two separate orders for more once I realized I couldn’t keep up with the laundry considering I never want to take them off What I love: —Affordable —Actually holds the flanges in place (should work with all pump flange styles) —Easy pull down nursing access (clips can be so annoying) —Overlapping fold design doesn’t have that uncomfortable pumping access slit seam directly over your already sore nipples —once it softened up after the first wash it feels like a cozy bralette Note: —unlined layers have a noticeable seam on the side of the breast that might bother some aesthetically —Sizing chart might be a little misleading. While nursing I’m about a 36C/34D and I bought a size medium which fits correctly. If you’re between sizes I’d size up
