Support Bras - when?

[OverTheMoon]

I can't remember from last time around when I started wearing a support bra. I do know that my chest hurts like hell at the moment and feeling very very sensitive, so should I get one or two now? Or wait because they are likely to get bigger (although I am quite small anyway so they didn't grow loads last time..)
I am currently 7 + 1. Any advice would be great! xx

i needed a new bra as soon as i found out i was preggers, my bra was already tight and just thought they were swollen as i was due on . mine grew a lot in first Tri but have stopped since. If your boobs are uncomfy now i'd get one it is amazing what a support bra can do.

i started wearing one almost straight away i think.

I went to Mothercare and got measured at 5 weeks because I had grown out of mine. Mine were also all underwired and the woman said they needed to go asap. She said to try them on on the tightest setting at the back so you can expand it as necessary, which meant I went up one size on what she measured me at.

I find them great for sleeping in as well when boobs are reallly sore.

I got measured and bought some from M & S more or less straightaway, as mine grew really quick and seemed to have been pretty stable since then, apart from leaking like a sieve since 18 weeks! I am still wearing those ones now.

oooooooh the leaking, I had forgotten about that....

I have been wearing underwired...but my bra broke whilst I was at work today!!!!

Time for a bigger one!!

I was really surprised they started leaking so early, but I think I am used to it now.

Happybunny - you need to change to non underwired bras asap as they can be harmful to your breasts as they change size and shape.

Yeah, I thought that might be the case, thanks for the article!

I am going to have to go shopping, I only own underwired bras!
