Pregnant after 35

When did your ribs start expanding?

My bra has felt like a vice lately and today I couldn't take it any longer and am now braless at work. Thank god for the cardigan I keep at my desk. I bought bigger bras early on in pregnancy but haven't needed any changes since.

I guess now that LO is well above my belly button, she's making room for herself?

  • I know the feeling!  You can get bra extenders, they help with the whole "can't breathe" thing.  :)

     I forget where I got mine, but here's an example:

  • Jealous that you can go braless at work... or anywhere!  Maybe just a bra without underwire would help.

    I was just thinking that it's time to ditch my underwire bras.  They are digging into me big time.  Are all maternity bras underwire-less?

     D'oh! Bra extenders! I forgot all about the existence of those. Thanks for the reminder. The cups are fine but the band is killer.

  • The bra extenders still didn't seem to work for me. I just bought a couple larger size sport bras and maternity camisoles from Old Navy. I have been wearing them since the beginning of my second tri.
