Where these numbers come from

The 3 products ranked here carry 436 reviews at Target. We read the newest reviews of each product (up to a thousand per listing), kept the ones that talk about support, and counted up to 40 per product, posted between Jun 2016 and Jun 2024.

A review counts only when the reviewer used the product themselves. We drop reviews written in exchange for a free product or a sweepstakes entry (0 on this page), and products that are no longer sold.

Target also shows reviews first posted on brands' own websites. We show them on product cards but never count them, because brand-site reviews run more positive than store reviews of the same products.

Because we searched for the problem, people who had it are overrepresented. Compare products with each other rather than reading a share as your own odds.

We count what parents report. Nothing here is medical or safety advice: for a sick baby, call your pediatrician, and for car seats, a certified child passenger safety technician can check the install.

Amazon buttons appear only on products that most parents here say fix the problem (at least 60%, with enough reviews to trust it). Everything else gets no buy link.

An AI model labels each review against a fixed list of points, and we spot-check the labels before publishing. We publish counts, never the reviews themselves.

Questions buyers ask

Which nursing bra gives good support?

Bravado Designs Body Silk Seamless Nursing Bra has the best record at 18 of 21, followed by Bamboobies Yoga Nursing Bra (23 of 29) and Simple Wishes Supermom All-in-One Nursing and Pumping Bra (13 of 22). Just three bras cleared the bar, and each group is small.

Is this the same list as the easy-to-unclip page?

Yes, the same three bras cleared the bar on both pages. The order is different there because that page counts how easy the clips or panels were to open, not support, so check it if one-handed opening matters to you.

Do these bras work for a larger chest?

Parents who said a bra gave good support, including for a larger chest, are counted as a yes. We do not split the results by size, so check the maker's size guide. Sizing complaints show up in 8% of Bravado reviews, 8% of Bamboobies reviews and 14% of Simple Wishes reviews.

Is the Simple Wishes nursing and pumping bra supportive enough?

Often, but it has the weakest record here at 13 of 22, and 36% of its reviews say it isn't supportive. Parents who like it point to the soft fabric (54%), and 14% call it easy to nurse in.
