Ever since I stopped breastfeeding, I have been on a mission. There is one task that needs to be completed and I am failing miserably. This is not because I can’t do it but instead that it is just really hard.
What in the world am I talking about? And why are there bras in the picture? Have I lost my mind?
There are bras because they are my worst nightmare right now. Breastfeeding has dome some crazy stuff to my body. One of those things is my odd sized breasts. Is that TMI? In addition to how breastfeeding has affected my body, you also need to take into account the dieting and weight loss. I have lost a total of 6 inches around my rib cage since I last wore non-nursing bras. Do you know what that means? That means I either wear my nursing bras (that don’t fit) or I wear whatever I can find in the local stores (that don’t fit). I have chosen the latter for right now. I can’t wear those nursing bras anymore. But, they are uncomfortable and I have major cleavage issues… and not the good kind if you know what I mean.
I am planning a trip to our local bra shop where I will be measured professionally. I will spend way more than I want to on one bra and I will be happy about it. It is what must be done because finding a bra that fits has proven to be an impossible task.

I struggled with that while nursing too. I also have issues finding bras now. I’m tiny around with a larger chest. Annoying at best. They don’t really make bras my size and I’m not having them special made.
Good Luck. you’re not alone.

One of these days I need to go to a regular bra shop too. What amazes me is that when I buy bras (various places but nothing too expensive) is how differently the same size is in different bras. Drives me crazy!

I know exactly were you are coming from! This is me all the way! I’m breastfeeding right now and my left side is a lot bigger than my right. I’m also losing weight and my bras are too big. I have bras that I had when I was at my smallest and they are to small around my ribs. I don’t think there is a bra that would fit me just right. With my uneven boobs. No it wasn’t TMI a lot of us are at the same spot you are. It was a real post and I loved it thanks bunches! Stop by sometime!
