I can't believe your MW didn't say! My SIL had a big go at me for wearing underwires as she suffers from it, but my sis said it doesn't matter until the milk comes in and she wore wires all through pregnancy. My sis and I are quite similar so I opted for her advice. Hope you can find some tasty soft bras! |

I'd like to keep them like this post-pregnancy and breastfeading, please  Just maybe less veins showing up on them. |

I read some things and came to that conclusion on my own. I told them about it very early on, and I had a breast exam and everything seemed fine. So she didn't ask me about it again, and I just didn't bring it up anymore. But from what I read that is exactly what is happening to me, even as far as the warm running water helping. But I'll definitely try a wireless bra. | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | I started off a 34G and am how a 36 H. I went up to J cup in my lasy pregnancy! They are revolting....sagging sacs of badness! They dont look too bad in the bra, but take the boulder holder off and they drop south like a bloody tonne weight! Ugly, heavy revolting....I guess you get the message!!! God give me a nice pert 34 c! |

Although, I really don't envy you women with E's and F's and bigger. They just seem like they're more trouble than they're worth at that point. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I hate mine. I was a 36E before hand and loved them, but now they're a G cup. Honestly they feel like they're under my chin all the time. Heaven help me when I get into bed after i've taken my bra off. I even reverted to sleeping with my bra on, on occassion now and i've always hated that. |
