Underwired bras aren't recommended apparently, as they can cause damage to the growing breast tissue. I've got a few support bras from Mothercare - they're much comfier than my regular ones and are actually quite flattering too! Have gone up three cup sizes already though...

OH and I were in bed this morning and he goes "Oh, look - you've got lines all over your boobs honey..." Err, yes, thanks. Those would be strechmarks, love! Needless to say, have been slathering on the Bio oil religiously all day....
