but it only goes up to 40...... anyone have any suggestions or know of anywhere I can order online!??!
Any help would be greatly appreciate... |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I don't know...can you order from British websites?
If you can, try www.marisota.co.uk - they do 'bigger' bras, but not sure on their prices.
Otherwise, do what I just did to find that for you....just google 'bras'  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Measuring can be inaccurate. When I was measured once, the "measurements" said I should have been a 42DD and I was in fact (after much trying on) a 34G or similar....a very, very different size anyway.
I would recommend going into a store and trying a few on for the best and most accurate fit  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I get my bras from bravissimo its worth looking again as they dont measure with a tape measure so your measurements are generally smaller than how you measure yourself, fig leaves is another website that you could have a look at. It is pants though I am 36gg at the moment and am sure that by the time i give birth i will have ran out of cup sizes. Good Luck! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I am in 38E's and i have found the only way to go are t shirt bra's. Much more comfy!!!!
I would suggest getting measured correctly, nothing worse than 4 boobs on one girl!!!  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Ebay!!! You can get all sizes on there and all the different brands as well. Asda have been life-savers for me as they go up to an F cup and they are only £6 a go! But, not sure that's any good to someone in the states. Try Ebay though | | | | Status: Offline
