I bought a pack of cheap nursing bras on Amazon my second trimester and then had to buy another set in a larger size towards towards the end of pregnancy haha These are the ones I ordered
My cup size went up 8+ cup sizes pregnant/postpartum! I immediately bought super stretchy nursing bras similar to these. The specific brand I bought isn't carried anymore. These look to be the same though. I bought based on my band size and did NOT size up for a bigger cup size. They will stretch to accommodate a large range of cup sizes though. When you're nursing, your cup size can very greatly throughout the day.
I have actually only worn some cheap nursing bras I found on amazon. They are almost shaped like a sports bra, and the Elvie fits perfectly in there. Any bra that will hold them tight to your chest would suffice.
On mobile, so idk if the link will look perfect, but below are the exact bras I have. They are very comfy, but the removable pads can be a pain in the ass.

I ended up buying these cheap cute bras off Amazon ( https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071LM3T3X/ref=cm_sw_r_awdo_navT_g_CRVYMTZEBFH23VMG0KEP ) and then found this video a short bit after ( https://youtu.be/VwqdT_931Tc ). 😊
I love these from amazon! I maneuver the straps to make them hands free pumping bras too!
