Please help my boobies

Before I got pregnant I went on a bra shopping spree. I thought it may be a bad idea in case I got pregnant, but after 3yrs of infertility treatments, eventually you just learn to live your life and hope that one day your biggest problems is a drawer full of bras that don't fit.

Well ... now I have a drawer full of bras that don't fit.

Would one of those bra strap extenders help? I find the strap is tight and then when I sit, the underwire digs into me.

Tell me I don't need all new bras...........

Try the extenders, they are cheap. HOpefuly they will help you buy more time. Some people change bra sizes multiple times during pregnancy.

The strap extenders may buy you some time. I eventually had to buy new bras because the cup size didn't fit. Two rounds of new bras too! I have been wearing the same ones since about 25 weeks.
The good things is after pregnancy and breast feeding I eventually fit into my old bras.

Re: Please help my boobies

I had to buy new ones. I only got a few (I do laundry every friggin day anyway) because after my dd I went back. All this is so worth it I know, but I think maternity clothes should be a lot cheaper than regular clothes. I have spent a small fortune! More than I spend on myself for regular clothes. Then there will be nursing bras, nursing tanks, and clothes for when I am too small for maternity but too big for my regular clothes Chat Icon

It was the cup size for me. 5 weeks into being pregnant I had to go up a size. I bought one and I'm dealing w that now bc I know in time ill be buying a size bigger again. It was 20.00 @ bru(or bbb I always get them confused) and if I had a coupon it would have been 4.00 cheaper.

I too have a draw full of expensive/new bras that will be going into a tub tonight w the rest of my clothes I will not be wearing for at least another 10 months! Chat Icon gl

I bought new ones, but I only bought two. DH is NYPD and wears under armor so we do laundry a couple times a week anyway.

With me it was the cup size that I needed. I went up from a 36-38, but I went from a C to a DD/E Chat Icon

I ended up just buying a bunch of nursing bras since I can wear them now and then not have to buy new ones when Chat Icon is born. I swear to you, buy a new bra. I haven't felt this amazing in a LONG time Chat Icon

I used those extenders for a while. I got them at Kohls (they have a 3-pack one black, one white and one beige).
After a while I had to stop wearing underwire bras because they got so uncomfortable. I ended up getting new ones without wires at Kohls also.

Put your good bras away, you will stretch them out and ruin them. They will fit again!

Go to target and get yourself some nice and comfy (no underwire) nursing bras. I bought 4/5. They are better than maternity pants ! so comfy! They are cheap and you will use them for the next year, even if you don't nurse. Till your boobs/back return to normal size.Chat Icon
