Hi everyone
Just thought I would come on and tell you what has saved me buying new comfortable bras. I don’t know about you but after my lumpectomy and lymph node removal I couldn’t cope with anything too tight . I wore the post surgery bra for first few weeks but really didn’t like it - possibly just in my mind for what it represented. I have just bought a pack of 3 bra extenders in different colours and can happily wear my old non wired bras again for the first time. This is probably old news but for me this was a very cheap solution to returning back to a bit of normality and that’s what we desperately crave - well I do!
Hope you’re all doing well.
Also Peacocks have some lovely seamless crop top bras in at the moment which have removable pads (so pockets). I’ve bought them in every colour. The plain ones are £6, patterned ones £8 or £9 ![]()
Thank you for this post, I’m having chemo first then lumpectomy/lymph node removal in Sept/Oct. I’m clueless about where to look for an appropriate post surgery and future bras. I’m quite big busted so really feel I need support otherwise the girls will be down by my knees!
Hi
I’m loving the Uniqlo built in bra tops. So comfortable and great for this hot weather. No underwire, metal closures or seams to dig in.
I only buy the ones that aren’t cropped. They also do dresses
Used M&S post surgery bras but all very hot because of support layers ( weather didn’t help )
After a few weeks found some Matalan post surgery bras , more like teenage trainer bras. Removed cups as I had lumpectomy . Latter were easier on scars . Lots of E45 cream too
