BRA!!!!


PLEASE SOMEBODY PLEASE recommend a PERFECT bra for me! I am a new nurse (>1 yr) and cannot find a bra that my boobs don't topple out of when bending over! I am a 36D and I KNOW no push-ups, front close, X back, etc...they have all failed me so far!

Thanks everybody!
me.

Go and get fitted for a full coverage bra. There is no reason to be falling out of your bra, unless it doesn't fit properly, or it's the wrong shape (ie. too low cut).

Go to any major department store or specialty shop and get fitted professionally. They will help you with finding a proper bra. Most women wear the wrong size anyway.

Dillards dept store is a good place to get fitted, a full coverage bra is what you'll need. Or some of us wear a (wife beater tee shirt) under our scrub tops that works great. We just had a 68 yr old women complain that when the aide bent over her husband giving him a bath showed to much clevage, it was just the way scrub top fitted and weighed down by badge when she bent over. Crazy but true!

full coverage playtex bra has always served me well. Any kind of tee shirt under would work too.

I know this might be uncomfortable, but my classmate has worn a sportsbra oftentimes.

Bravissimo is a wonderful site for large chested woman that aren't large around. I have a hard time finding bras locally I am a 38G and I order bras and bikinis from this site, they are good quality, and great customer service. you can go to Bravissimo.com

I almost always to a Hanes/Bali/Playtex store to get fitted and try on new bras. The sales people are always helpful finding the right cut and support for me. When I find a few I like, I may buy 1 or 2 there and then I buy the rest online (because its cheaper!).

I swear by sports bras! I have some really good ones by both Nike and Adidas that are fairly high cut at the neck. They completely take care of that annoying gap that you get when your name badge dangles while you bend over.

Plus, I don't have to worry about straps slipping. I don't think I could wear anything else!
