I was a 36D before getting pregnant and I ordered an XL because I wasn't sure how much larger I would get when my milk came in. Apparently I got too large! This bra rides up in the back, and when I pull it to the side to nurse it digs into my breast. It was nice and comfy before I gave birth, and I'm sure it would work for someone of a smaller size, but it is not made for larger women!
