Bras- when did you switch?

Okay so luckily i haven't had to buy any new bras this whole time (unluckily for my husband Chat Icon). However now at 27 weeks, i feel my bras getting tight since my stomach is now getting bigger. Maybe not tight, but hurting a little since the stomach is getting hard and moving up.

Were you ladies able to wear your regular bras the whole time or did you find maternity ones to wear instead?

Re: Bras- when did you switch?

i bought some bra extenders- they have been fabulous so far, and saved me some $$ from buying entire new bras....

Re: Bras- when did you switch?

bra extenders wouldn't work for me.... that enlarges the back area.... but I needed to go up a cup rather early on.

I just bought inexpensive bras at target at about 7 weeks. Not too much of a financial commitment, so I don't feel bad when I need to go into an even larger cup size...

I bought a bigger cup size and bigger band size at 26 weeks. I'm now growing out them (at 33 weeks) and trying to last until I buy nursing bras.

i too am trying this one.. i did have to buy bras since ive been pregnant..i found that target had some good ones and to find underwire is good too! I think Hanes was the brand of underwire one i found at target for 12.99 but i found that they dont go any larger than a 36 C..so if you are bigger than that.. then those ones wouldnt work.. but keep your eyes open, even on the clearance racks!! goodluck!Chat Icon

I bought inexpensive underwire D cups at Target. They definitely go past 36C in some brands .

Re: Bras- when did you switch?

At 12 weeks I went to Target and bought some cheapo bras one full cup size larger as well as one full band size larger.

Seems to have held me over so far (I'm now 28 weeks). I am hoping I will be able to stay in these until I need nursing bras.

Re: Bras- when did you switch?

I went up a cup size by 12wks...a bra size by 20wks and 2 weeks ago, I went up another cup size so I bought a nursing bra. But I got an underwire one...since I'm just 31wks and like the support.

I went up a cup size and bra size at 15 weeks. I feel like I have watermelons down my shirt. I could give Pam Anderson a run for her money in the boob category Chat Icon

Re: Bras- when did you switch?

I still fit into my regular bras. I just loosened the straps and went up a notch on the back. I did buy 2 bras in a bigger cup size but I really don't need them. I am one of the few with boobs that didn't grow. Poor DH Chat Icon

Re: Bras- when did you switch?

In my 6th month I went to Mimi and bought 2 maternity bras... One of them broke! The glue that holds the shoulder strap to the bra itself I guess dried up and fell apart. I'm going to sew it together. I also wear sports bras. I think the sports bras are more comfy.
