Bras


So it seems the breast fairy has been visiting and I have this attractive (not) double-boob look going on now because I'm spilling out the top.

What I want to know, is what's the best thing to do? Do you buy some normal bras in a bigger size - how much wear would you get out of them? Or do you go straight for maternity bras and if so, can anyone point me in the direction of some pretty (sexy even ) bras?

I must admit to being slightly traumatised by spending the next year in underwear of the style I wore at school. Underwear is my shoes/bags thing IYKWIM.

I just bought a bigger size bra myself

I lived in wonderbra's too although i still have saggy tits that divorced when i was developing (pointing outwards need wonderbra to have cleavage) I never went near a maternity bra so i have no idea if they would be any better for you.

Hey Helen...

I work for La Senza and we advise that you should go into maternity (non-underwired) bras at 20 weeks, as thats when your milk ducts start developing properly for pregnancy and the wire can damage them...

in the meantime, i'd reccommend popping into a store and getting a free bra fitting....La Senza, M&S and Ann Summers/Knickerbox all have measuring services...as do the bigger department stores

Hope this helps

xx

Helen

Topshop have some really trendy maternity bra's. Have a look online after going to M&S to be measured but word of advice get measured at two different places as can be conflicting.
