If you want a nursing bra that is like all the bras you were wearing before you had a baby, EM is where you go.
I'm nursing my fifth baby and I have finally found the holy grail for nursing bras. Excellent projection, everything is within the normal frame/silhouette, supported and not sagging at the bottom of the cup. What more could a girl want? Top it off with a pretty appearance, and seriously, where has this bra been all my life?
The recommendation to order a size up in the band might be based on personal preference. I ordered a size up and actually received the wrong size - ... 70 instead of 75 - but the 70 fits just fine. Yes, it's a firm band and these wires are hard, but the fit is good. I can still breathe. (I didn't realize that I had received the wrong size till I went to upload this bra, actually.)
As far as fit goes in the cups (I suppose I should talk about that?) - I am very full on bottom, and as such, a balconette cup has to be just the right height for it to fit *perfect*. When I am due for a feeding, this is smooth against the top; when I've just nursing, I've got some gaping. Such is the nature of nursing bras. The gaping is not so extreme that it changes the appearance in my clothes. I did order a cup up as was recommended on the Levana website.
For the cost, this takes the cake. I own a Freya nursing bra, which is okay (I've reviewed that too) --- it does enough of the job, but it costs just about the same as this bra... only, this one does what I'd expect a $70 bra to do, and that one falls far short.
It's worth every penny.
I've tried nursing bras from Elomi, Freya, Panache, Le Mystere, Cake.
This goes above and beyond.

Nice bra with easy clasps; spacer material. Bought both this size and the 32GG. The gore tacked on the 32GG but it was too big in the cup; whereas this (32G), the gore doesn't tack but I am not having tissue compression on the bottom, sides, or top so it generally "fits"; it does squish tissue when I'm closer to needing to nurse again and getting engorged. Currently 3 weeks postpartum. Shape is wider than my non nursing bras, but fine, and my main complaint is just the gore not tacking.

Would work better for someone with a more even fullness, as I am pretty full on bottom, which I think is why the 32GG was big, especially at the top; the bottom fit with a little more "engorgement room".

Because of my shape and being so full on bottom, I think I want to try one of the EM nursing bras since they are half cup/balconette style. Just trying to figure out what size to order.

Love this bra. I only wish it had slightly more projection and held things in front a hair more. Otherwise, it fits exactly like a bra should fit and the shape is really quite nice.

I bought this for a "large breasted lounge nursing bra"; having had a few of those "cross over front" sleep bras, I wanted something with a little more coverage, as I used to wake up finding the upper boob (side sleeper) had escaped the cross over and was making a hot mess in my sleep.
Moving on then.
This bra provides basically no shape or separation; if that's what you are looking for, well, look elsewhere. It does not exist here. I am measuring somewhere in the ballpark of a 32/34 G cup for most bras at this point. I think that if the front was about an inch or ... two more fabric, like a straight line from nursing clip to nursing clip, it might provide better shape.
I wish that the bottom band was firmer because even on the tightest of the three hook settings, I feel like I might fall out. (I won't, it just FEELS that way.) That's just one of those things with lounge-y style nursing bras, though.
The racerback style feels good. Again, this fabric could do with being a little firmer. Soft and stretchy is great up front for this style, but everywhere else, it just leaves me left for want.
For practical purposes, this is a lot of money for a sleeping/lounging bra, BUT it does hold them up and at this size, I suppose that's a behemoth task for stretchy fabric.

Owned this bra for a while now, so it's well broken in and still fits like a glove. Gives great forward projection.

I am pretty full on bottom so I shouldn't have been surprised that I don't quite fill this out - that said: on a bad engorgement day, this bad boy fits like a merciful glove. Great shape, great projection.

This fits pretty well. The mesh sling on the inside of the cup squashes my side boobs a little bit; not so noticeable with clothes on, but I can see the slight indentation myself. The gore tacks and stays put all day long, the top elastic has enough give, and overall the bra is comfortable to wear all day long. It puts the twins all up front and gives a nice rounded appearance.

Love this bra, think it's fun and sexy. Gives great support and my absolute favorite shape.

I'm normally FOB/even, but during that week before my period, my other balconettes are too snug. I bought Meg with hopes that this'll be roomy enough to deal with the swelling and counteract the digging I normally get I my upper cup elastic/band.

Meg fits marvelously everywhere but the top of the cup as anticipated, and overall, I fill it well with room to swell up. I tried on several shirts and the wrinkling wasn't noticeable in any. I think it fits well enough, despite what Baratabase says, especially for what I intended it for

The shape is perfect, the lift is good, and the material feels a little rough/stiff, but not so much that I can't wear it.

Fits nicely with a teeny bit of wrinkling at the top of the cup (is cosmetic, not from fit.)

Gives a early fantastic topless shape, but I'm not thrilled with it with the shirt on. Cute pattern. Overall, it's astheticaly pleasing, just a wider shape than my Cleo Lucy or Panache Idina balconettes. It'll do the trick, though.

The band feels loose for a 30; normally I wear a 32FF, but after reading reviews, I went with the 30G and I am glad I did.
