So it doesn't matter what bra i wear, so far non really truly fit me but one. and my sport bra's they fit. I put a bra on and they itch and it hurts! I do have red marks from where the bra sits under my boobs, and my nipples itch so so so bad and it sucks! i dont want to even ever put a bra on. Itch defense that works on my legs, but not my boobs! I dont know what to do!

    Im totally a lurker from another board I wasnt planning on posting out here yet but I have the same problem. Im not sure, but if your like me it could be the size of your boobs. Bigger boobs are heavier and rub more in the bra. I used to get what your describing plus little sores. Try baby gold bond powder. MY doctor reccomended it and it works great (keeps you from sweating in there too!) the only complaint I have is it could smell better.

    I was having that same problem. For the red marks under my boobs I switched from a underwire bra to a nice maternity bra without any wire. For the itch that won't go away I used Natural Nipple Butter by Earth Mama Angel Baby. This stuff works amazing, I would get it if I were you! Its great for breastfeeding Mama's too, because its completely organic and natural and doesn't need to be wiped off before feeding baby. Here is the link to the website where you can buy it. https://www.earthmamaangelbaby.com/natural-nipple-butter.html

    I would get some new, well fitted bras and maternity shelf tanks because yours are probably too tight. Make sure you wash them regularly as your skin will be more sensitive now, and coconut oil does wonders for itchy skin!

    I have the same problem, to the point where I haven't been wearing a night bra just for some hours of relief.  My bras do fit, so I am not having the red marks around the band anymore, but the itches are still here.

    Sounds like you need some new bras that fit and a tub of cocoa butter...

    I bought a bottle of bio-oil. And it worked amazing!!!!!!!!!!! i was having the same issue. Its a little pricey but well worth it!!

    Bio-oil is the best bet. I've been using that stuff all the time now and everything feels amazing. Because not only are your breasts stretching slowly, the skin is more sensitive and dryed out. This stops the dryness and the chafing. Super great after a shower too!

    I guess I will try some of these, nothing really helped because I dont have an under wire, and my bra fits, i am a 32DDD as measured now. I am normally a 32DD. i have tried cocoa butter. itch relief lotion, i get marks from underwire, and non under wire, i get it from sport bra's they itch with a bra on no matter what kind it is or what size! for whatever reason. my boobs are not plowing out of my bra now. i am Miserable as it is with them itching in pain during work, and not being able to fix it or itch. i even have extra room in my sport bra's if that will help rule out to small of bra. they are so big doesn't matter how much i work out my pecks it doesn't help they still kinda hang. they are 100% natural. they grew like weeds, in high school. in nearly less than 2 years. i was very active all my life so why they hang is annoying or why the muscles dont work, because I thought that was why because of the lack of support and now they are just to heavy! so support or no support, its the fact i put on something tigher around my boobs, it hurts in itching pain and leaves marks
