Pudge Princess:
28f 240lbs right now, so when I was a young chonk (even at my high weight) I wore a bra all the time: being young and embarrassed, comforming to societal norms was super important to me. When I lost weight though, I got used to not needing one. The idea of going back just brings up uncomfortable itchy nightmares, and you know... underwire being a thing 🙄
TMI TIME YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED
I'm mostly worried about sweat (which also makes me itchy as my skin is finicky), or getting my nipple piercings either caught on something or infected (likely because sweat).
I like the idea of bralettes because I've seen a lot of cotton, lace, or mesh ones that seem incredibly comfortable and breathable - though I haven't deep dived just on amazon I've seen some hella cute ones up to 5x which is plenty of room to grow for now. But do they even work though?
I've done sports bras before, but they are too consticting, and clearly I'm still going au natural currently to even need to ask advice lol, but I am already noticing that some days I have to tuck my dress under my tits because my bars are getting super irritated.
So just wondering if any ladies want to share some secrets on their support choices, especially if you are also pierced 😭 I mean like, has anyone gotten an infection?? Any brand recommendations? Just general help thanks 🥵
Please pardon my not being a woman, but I had to add here that my wife recently got a bralette and loves it. She’s a 46 DDD and enjoys the comfort level it brings. I help her fix the hook in the back so it clips in the center of her back, which helps show off each tattoo she has on her shoulder blades ;-)
She, too, finds underwires and plastic bands uncomfortable. Often she resorts to wadding up paper towels under her bra to make it not as pressing against her luscious rolls.
