2nd Trimester

motherhood doesnt have my bra size

i am so frustrated. i dont know where to get a freaking bra. its definitely time for me to get a new one, i went into motherhood a few days ago and they really dont know how to measure for a bra. i was 32F pre-pg and obviously way bigger now. the girl tried to tell me i was measuring a 32E so she gave me a 34D to try on. i told her i already knew it wouldnt fit and of course it didnt. way too big around the band and i was spilling out of the cups. am i going to have to risk it and shop online? measuring tends to be less accurate as cup sizes go above a D, so i really wouldnt know what true size i am unless i tried on in a store. my main problem is my band size is so tiny!

    I have the same problem - I can never buy bras in stores. I get mine online - try figleaves.com and barenecessities.com. They have every size you can think of.

  • There has to be some kind of lingerie boutique in Dallas - I know we have one here, that's where I got my bras last time. I've also heard good things about this website:

    I have the same issue as you - small band size and huge cup size. I know how important it is to find a good fit too! GL :)

    thanks, i know these websites have my size (well, pre-pg). i just wish i could find a store that carries unusual sizes! 

  • They are expensive, but I've been told to try Nordstroms.

    Yeah, it sucks to have to guess and return things. I hate it. But I haven't been able to bra shop in a store for years. My pre-pg size is a 30DD and now I'm in a 32D.

    i wish i still lived in houston. they have a wonderful store called the bra specialist and they really know how to fit you for bras. its near my parents house but i dont know how much longer i can wait to get a new bra! im going to try nordstrom and if i cant get one there ill try to buy online.  

  • I order it online. i'm into a 36g and it came within a few days. I wish the first time I was their they girl said we only carry till like d or dd.

  • I was there yesterday and the lady was an idiot.

    I'm going to check out Lane Bryant to see what size I need, since they didn't have my size either, but I doubt they carry a 32. Can you do the same and have your mom or someone hold your band tighter so you can figure out the cup size?

    I cannot wait to be done having babies so I can get boobzilla and boobasauras rex reduced.

    That is gonna be my quote of the DAY! I've been saying since I was 18 that is what I want more then anything. Reduce and Lift I want them back in place and a few sizes smaller would be nice.

  • Someone told me that Nordstroms has larger sizes in store than online, so you could try there.

    I've gone from a 32B to a 32F, and they told me that the biggest they carried in 32 was a G at Motherhood (in like 2 bras), so you probably have to look elsewhere anyway.
