- One bra, every stage — six back hooks adjust as your body changes from pregnancy through postpartum
I’ve only had this for a few weeks but it’s so comfortable and supportive! Makes breastfeeding in the hot weather so much easier
Love this! It’s much more supportive than cheaper nursing camis and so soft. Worth the extra cost
Hi JD, we're so glad to hear you love the camisole! Thanks for your kind words and support. Enjoy wearing it! xx
Hands down best nursing singlet! It’s both freeing and supportive at the same time. Makes breastfeeding at night so easy. I will be purchasing more to add to my collection
I’m a 36GG (normally) bigger just now with breastfeeding and I can wear this without feeling like I need a bra on underneath. Very supportive and very comfortable. I bought 2 as I will live in them over the summer. Even when I’m done feeding I will keep wearing them!
Everyone was raving about the Bonds and Kmart camisoles, but the Hotmilk ones are infinitely better as a larger cup lady. The fabric is thicker and lusher so it feels more premium. I love the A frame for the privacy and support. And the fabric gives me proper coverage instead of spilling out the top/sides like the cheaper options. Definitely worth the higher price point in my opinion.
My only point for improvement would be having padding in the top to reduce nippage but given the quality of the fabric, this is a very small gripe
Thank you for your wonderful feedback Yennhi, it is so great to hear that you love the My Necessity cami. I will pass on the feedback about the padding xx
I ordered this cami and a few of the maternity bras and I honestly never want to wear a normal bra or singlet ever again, they are so buttery soft and comfortable to wear, not to mention they cater to bigger bust sizes unlike a lot of your general clothing stores! Will be a returning customer ❤️
Thank you for your lovely review Erin xx
These camis are the G.O.A.T! As soon as I put this on, I knew I was going to buy more. The relief I felt of putting on a nursing cami that was truly supportive for my bust size (F, possibly G cup due to breastfeeding). The material is so soft, I've been able to wear these all day and sleep in them too. I usually wear a top size 10-12, and this fits so comfortably in a size medium.
Thank you for you lovely review Tori! I am so gla to hear that you love your cami xx
I've been practically living in these camis since about halfway through my pregnancy. So comfortable, supportive enough to wear without a bra
Thank you for your review Amy, it is lovely to hear that you are happy with your My Necessity cami xx
The only tank that hold my **** up!!
I have tried many feeding tanks, and this is the only one which doesn't stretch out so much and makes me spill out over the top.
Great for larger busts too!
Thank you for your review Sam, it is great to hear that the My Necessity cami works well for you xx
Great singlet, very soft and buttery. Easy to unclip for feeding.
True to the size
Thank you for your lovely review Magdalena xx
After searching far and wide in the US and UK for a supportive nursing bra, I finally found the one. This is by far the best nursing cami I have come across. The material is thick yet soft, the bust fits perfectly and is supportive without being restrictive. The material is lovely and stretchy. I was a 36DD at the start of my pregnancy and am a 38DD at the end, and I know this will fluctuate while nursing. I've gone with the XL Busty my necessity flexfit nursing camisole and it fits me perfectly. Great for being around the house, and also for sleeping in at night in lieu of a nursing bra. I've gone back and bought more and now have a total of 4! They do take a while to dry being so thick and good quality.
Thank you for your lovely review Ashleigh x
These are god-tier camis. Like wow. The quality is insane. I haven’t felt this good wearing a top since giving birth (13 mos PP). Please make more of these in different colors!!
Thank you for your lovely review on our My Necessity Cami, Elan!! We will be bringing out some new colours very soon so keep an eye out xx
I bought this to wear while pregnant and then nursing, and so far I find it really comfortable. I haven't used it yet for nursing, but the clip undoes easily, so it looks like it will be easy to use in that scenario.
Thank you for your review Alison! x
This singlet is so comfortable and has become my absolute favourite thing to wear postpartum. Highly recommend!
Thank you for your review Jaimee, it is great to hear that you are loving your My Necessity cami! x
So great. Super comfy. So easy to use. Just fantastic
Thank you for your lovely review Morgan x
Was recommended these camis by a friend and they don't disappoint! Really supportive and excellent for day and night wear. Really easy to breast feed in and makes pretty much any top suitable without feeling exposed. Also supportive enough to hold wearable pumps in place.
Hi Jennifer, it is so great to hear that you're loving your My Necessity Nursing Cami! It means so much when our mamas recommend us to their friends - that's exactly the kind of feedback that makes us smile x
Finally, a plus sized nursing tank that is actually supportive! Never thought I’d find it!
Love the firm support the cami provides.
I love this product, I ended up buying the same in black and lived it during the newborn phase. It’s really comfortable and support. I wish I’d bought it when I had my first bub.
My cousin recommended these when I was looking for quality maternity clothes, and I absolutely love it! I have the striped version too. They are so soft, comfy and flatter the bump so well 10/10 recommend 😍
Great staple item, the nursing access is awesome, singlet is sleek and great material. Slight compression to help you feel smoothed out, without being too tight in chest and creating engorgement issues. Only complaint is that it’s a bit long in torso, so I wear it tucked under pants or jeans because it’s too bunched up if I wear it over. Comes down about halfway past my butt as a shorter petite lady.
Hi Janet, as a fellow shorty, I totally understand! It's always a tricky compromise to find the perfect length for everyone. I also love the smooth silhouette it gives me x
Super comfy and flattering fit!
So comfy, perfect thickness and undoing the clip does not release the entire bra section it only pulls down enough material to feed (hard to explain) but it only exposes your nipple and keeps the rest of your breast covered so it’s great when out in public! Highly recommend!
Since I have large breasts it has been difficult to find a cami that I can wear under everything and is also supportive. This cami is so comfortable that I forget I am even wearing it. It also supports my breasts well so I don’t have to wear a bra. Definitely recommend!
Very comfortable and good quality, definitely recommend. The only drawback is that after washing it takes a long time to dry due to the fabric layers.
Great comfortable cami. Found it useful to wear under other looser tops when breastfeeding out and about..
A really soft and comfortable cami with good support for tummy too
Common Nursing Bra questions
We say as soon as you feel your bust is changing. This varies greatly for everybody, but you'll notice a change in how your bra is fitting and you don't want any digging in. Buy 2–3 to start — your size may shift slightly once your milk comes in. If you experience significant growth earlier in pregnancy, a soft wire-free maternity bra can bridge the gap like our My Necessity bras.
Yes — you can wear our flexiwire technology, athough we like to say not to wear them for the weeks around when you give birth and are most sensitive. At this time you don't want anything pressing on milk ducts, which can contribute to blockages. Most lactation experts suggest avoiding rigid underwire in the first 6 weeks while your supply is establishing. After that, a well-fitted flexiwire or soft underwire nursing bra is safe for most women. Try Temptation.
We have a fit quiz here to help you with this. Or contact us for help with your size. During pregnancy, we recommend to roughly go up one cup and one back size from your pre-pregnancy bra as a place to start. Often you'll get fuller again in the bust when the milk comes in at birth. Then at around 3 months they'll settle again.
A nursing bra makes breastfeeding significantly easier. Regular bras don't accommodate the daily size fluctuations as your breasts fill and empty, and accessing them for feeding is awkward — especially one-handed with a hungry baby. A nursing bra with a drop-down clip lets you feed quickly and comfortably without fully undressing.
We recommend at least 3 nursing bras — one to wear, one to wash, one spare. In the early weeks when leaking is common, a fourth is useful. Start with 2–3 before your baby arrives, then add more once your size has settled around 6–8 weeks postpartum.
Yes, you have enough costs to worry about! A nursing bra with multiple hook-and-eye settings and adjustable straps can accommodate your changing size throughout pregnancy and carry you through into breastfeeding — so you don't need to buy separate maternity and nursing bras.
