Baby Boobs


Did pregnancy and nursing ravage your body as they did mine? I am covered in battle scars. Every inch of my belly and boobs is covered in stretch marks. I gained a cup size, but paid a high price for it! I feel like the old lady in the green shirt.
My search for the perfect bra began a few years ago when I decided that a boob lift was not within my budget. No one wants hideous boobs, but now that I am divorced it has occurred to me that I may have to be naked in front of someone again someday, and that terrifies me! When I was married I didn't care so much. Anyway, I digress. Originally, I found a bra at American Eagle that was awesome. It was an odd place to find a great bra, but the Aerie line had just come out and I got a coupon for a free bra in the mail. They quit making that particular model. Then I bought a couple at Victoria's Secret that I liked at first. After a while I realized that they gave me too much lift- I looked like my boobs were right under my neck. I think I finally got it right though. I bought a Body by Victoria lined demi bra several months ago and was instantly smitten. It is very comfortable and gives me just the right amount of support and coverage. No more neck boobies, and no more wet tube socks either!

mine are wet tube socks with a tennis ball in the bottom. that's gross. nice that you gained a cup size; i lost a cup size! where they were once glorious and legendary, they are now gross and floppy. mine, that is. i am unfamiliar with yours. poor Frank married a girl who immediately lost her edge. i, too, love body by victoria. just the right lift, cover, and shape.

Hillary WAY to much info!!! And please your boobies are like mount everest!!! hee hee!! But Aramie I too loved the body by VS..but now that I have 3 other kids to buy stuff I have to get my bras else where...but target has one that is called the Demi or something it's close to the VS I think and cheaper. Although I could still use a boob lift and a size up :0)

I was really happy with my size A boobs. I may be the only woman on earth who hates her B's and wishes for her A's!

Oh dear! You don't even have to have a baby for this to happen. I just gained a whole bunch of weight really fast and got stretch marks everywhere. Now that I've lost some it's all turning saggy :( I only WISH i had kids to blame it on!

I have been on the hunt as well for many years and I found one at Vickies. It is the wireless underwire bra. It makes them full but not "pushed up". Best bra so far! I too wish for A's! I hate boobs!!!!
