I'm a C cup but I still primarily wear sports bras. They are sooooo comfy!

@ccassaday --My mom had enormous boobs for her frame. I remember those awful, deep, red indents in her shoulders--I got small -medium ones--lucky me-- but my poor daughter got those big boobs and she is very small in stature. Always felt bad for my mom and later in life I suggested surgery to reduce them. She never did and not sure why.

32A here...it's hard to find my size in the stores. Sooo glad I never went the enhancement route in my younger days (I seriously considered it).

I'm an average C cup and happily wear nothing but sports bras (3 for $24). My Mother was very large chested and hard to shop for until I started buying her sports bras. One time my ( at that time young) Son asked me what was Grandmas sport? I answered " keeping her Tas Tas off her knees".

That's great! But I am one with no boobs at all--breast cancer was the reason for that. I have a devil of a time finding anything that I can wear under a t-shirt, much less find any tops that look or fit except I usually buy mens t-shirts--thats how I am built now. But yay for tiny ta-tas--

@wagirl You can be any size you want to be now. Why not buy a mastectomy bra in an A or B cup? The prostheses won't be heavy because they're small but you'll have a bit of shaping that will make your tops fit better. The brand ABC makes a very comfortable Tshirt bra in small cup sizes. Just a suggestion from another survivor.

@wagirl I am a 9 year BC survivor . I wear a t-shirt bra from CLASSIQUE #722. It has pocket for prosthesis. Comes in several colors.

FYI Medicare pays for 8 bras a year and new prosthetics every two years. I go to a local DME that orders and bills them after doctor ok. But, you can find Classique on line.

Oh I know that. Have a set of faux “girls” in my drawer right now as well as the bras. I found bras at a Soma store much like the Evelyn/ Bobbie ones. I prefer going without everyday and wear that hard wear most for special occasion.
