:lol: I need to know if I am the only bra hater? When I dont leave the house or during these cold winter months when I am wearing layers, I dont even bother (why? BFing has left me with these deflated small things :lol: )

Nope... thats the first thing that comes off when I get home :lol: I too have been left with raisins after nursing 3 kids :nod:

Sorry to butt in here, but I'm at work and not wearing a bra :rotflmao: . I can't stand them, and with bearly B's I don't really need to unless I'm wearing a tight top, and that very rarely happens because then I have to wear a bra :lol2: .

Why to they have to be so uncomfortable and slide?

:lol: I always wear one during the "work day" but comes off as soon as the girls go upstairs for their bath. It just hadn't occurred ot me to leave it off!

...wait a second, there we go. ahhhhhhhh bra free for the moment

God yes. I only take it off at night before bed. But then I'm a DD right now and the thought of going bra-less is not that appealing. I'd prefer to have my boobs somewhere on my chest as opposed to my stomach. :lol2:

I always wear a bra. I hate it when I'm sitting and my boobs are sticking to the skin underneath them. I take it off when I get ready for bed and that's it.

I usually wear one even if I am just around the house. BF-ing didn't have the shrinkage effect on me (and I wanted it to!), so I am uncomfortable w/o one. I take it off for bed, but that is about it...

If I am wearing clothes, then yes, I am wearing a bra. If I am in jammies (and lately, that's been til noon some days :rolleyes: ) then no bra.

I used to go without when I could. Since bf Anna, though, I can't stand to go without one. The fabric against my bb's just drives me nuts! It took at leat 5 months before I could even stand to sleep without one.

:lol2: OMG, the pain I'd be in if I didn't wear one! As a DD cup, there's NO way I can not wear a bra!

I'm a DD (at least, probably more like a DDD) and I don't wear one all the time. I have difficulty finding ones that are comfortable AND supportive. I tend to tuck my shirt under the girls to keep them from skin-to-skin contact :blush:

It comes off the second I get home. And on weekends, I only wear one around the house if someone is coming over or if I'm wearing something where it's clear that I'm going without!

Dawn

When I'm at home I almost never wear one. I put one on if pple are coming over or if I go out. No way, no how can I wear one when I'm sleeping. :nono: Too uncomfy.

OMG, this is exactly what I do!:lol: I usually only wear a bra if I'm going out. I hate wearing a bra and can never find one that's really comfortable.

I remember Oprah saying recently that she was going to do a whole show devoted to bras and I got all excited! I really hope she does because I'd love to hear about some comfy bras for us well endowed girls.

I only wear one when really necessary. I even went without one today when I left the house. :blush: I barely have As so there ain't much jiggling going on.

Ditto for me too :)

At the moment I wear one all the time so that I don't have leakage problems with nursing. I always wore one before becoming pregnant. I don't need one (size A for me), but I like the ones with a little extra padding so I don't look like a "little girl" - (add German accent here).

I wear one during the day (well, once I get out of my jammies around 10am :blush1: ) because they're just too saggy and heavy right now due to BFing. I pretty much always wear a bra when I'm out and about unless I'm sick and just running out quickly. I hate the way my boobs look now without a bra. :(

I wear bras or bra like shirts all day. The only time I wear the fancy underwire, push the boobs ups and forward, bras when Im going out for the day.. sometimes not even then. :lol: I bought these really soft cotton, no underwire bras and I LOVE them. Im a D/DD so going braless isnt always nice. This way I have a little support but the bra is so comfortable.

I only wear one when I go out. Even while bf'ing I'm only a B-cup so I don't really need one.

Eva

It depends on my mood and what I am wearing. If I am wearing a big baggy sweatshirt, I am more likely to go braless than if I am wearing a more fitted t-shirt. The majority of the time I do where a bra at home though.

I can't stand going without. :lol: I find it too uncomfortable for me to go without because of the strain on my back.

I used to only take off my bra to shower. I even had sleeping bras because I was so big and didn't want to let the girls loose. NOW, I am 2 months post breast reduction and I am LOVING the no need for a bra life!! (BTW I went from DDD's to cute little C's)

I have a question about your reduction if you don't mind?

Did your insurance pay for it? If not, how much did it cost you? How painful was it? How long did it take for recovery?

I am DD's right now (might even be close to DDD's) and I really want to go downh to small C's. Any advice?

Joan

I just sent you a PM, not sure if everyone wanted to read about it! Briefly, my insurance paid and I was back at work full-time 11 days post-op. Joan

I don't feel dressed without a bra on. Although, most days I wear a sports bra. They are SO comfortable!

Amy
March 1st, 2005, 08:20 PM
Now that I'm done nursing, yes, always...well, as soon as I get dressed. When I was BFing, I rarely wore one unless we were going out or company was coming, it was just too much of a pain. I have full C's, so I much prefer the support.

If I am in public or have people in the house, I wear one. I'm a C-cup normally and now a D, saggy :blush: to boot, so I really feel naked if I'm without one. As soon as I'm home for the evening, though, it comes off!

If I am at home then I have a sports type bra on (pulls over my head) but if I have layers on then I am braless:woo:. Lord knows I don't need someone to come to the door and see my unperky boobs pointing south:lol:.

I always wear one if I'm dressed....if in jammies then forget about it!

I don't feel right if I am not wearing one :dunno: So the only time I am without one is when I am in my pjs :)
Ditto! I'm also a DD, and I don't think it's comfy to be without one for long. I actually had breast reduction done about 9 years ago, but after having DD (and gaining some weight :( ) they grew back! :complain: So, after I'm done losing weight, I might try for another breast reduction.... :bolt:

Ditto. :) Has anyoneone been fitted properly? I was when pregnant with Mason and I think it does make a difference. :)

I am a D. If I think there is even a posibility of somone stopping by I have one on. IF I am dressed I always have one on and a lot of times even if I change for bed I will wear one until I actually climb in bed. I used to be a perky B before two kids and BFing

OMG...I wish I could get away with not wearing a bra. I'm a 34G (lookin to get these things reduced) and not wearing a bra is just not a possibility. They aren't a saggy G, but they are so huge for my frame they definitely aren't comfortable. And the bras....ugh!

Hilary
October 29th, 2005, 04:00 PM
I'm a D too and I have to wear one if there's any possibility I'll see someone besides DH and the girls. They are way to saggy to go without. :lol: I told DH when we're sure we're done with kids I want a boob lift.

Theresa

If I'm dressed, I have a bra on. I just don't feel right without one. As soon as the kids are in bed, though, I put my PJ's on the bra comes off! :)
