I'm not nursing anymore and I still wear this bra almost daily it is so comfortable. I've been wearing it almost non-stop for about 8 months now, and when I have new moms come to me asking if I have any nursing bra suggestions, this is my number one pick. That being said, no it does now have a LICK of padding. It's just heavenly soft, stretchy comfort fabric that is very breathable. I know just the idea of visible nipples would make some women want to die of embarrasment (I'm one of them), but I actually found that using breast pads helped keep that from being a problem anyways.

To be totally honest, I actually wish that I'd had a bra with this fabric in college for the summer, especially at football tailgates, because it's so breathable and doesn't cause boob sweat and actually helps resolve boob sweat   If you have nursing or pregant momma friends that you want to spoil, offer to buy them this bra. They'll honestly love you so much.
