Need help finding a bra - 38J/K

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 

HAAAALP! I have very large breasts. Emphasis on very. I'm currently wearing the Goddess Comfort Zone Soft Cup in a 38J. It's too small. The extra "modesty panel" sits 3-4 inches higher than the cup, it can be seen in pretty any shirt I wear, gives me awful uni-boob. It's just terrible.

 

It is really hard to find anything at all in a J/JJ/K, but they must be out there somewhere. Does anyone have any personal experience finding a large cup?

 

Or does anyone know any successful DIY tips to turn a normal bra into a nurser? I'd say screw it and just flip over the cup, but they're too big for that to work.

 

I've been BFing for 6+months so size change is not a concern, and I'm not too worried about an underwire affecting milk production.

I love Bravado and find them to be pretty reasonablly priced. I just checked though and I don't know if they have quite your size; they have a 36 J/K and a 38 F/G - you may be able to make one of these work with an extender.

 

I also like www.herroom.com - it has a wide selection of all sorts of bras, and you can mouse over different top types to see if a bra would work with certain necklines.

 

I feel your pain though, I am a 42 F/G and that is no easy find either!

I'm a 34J.

 

I'm not sure where you live, but check around to see if there are any boutiques around that carry large sizes and will fit you. By asking some coworkers of mine, I found a place 1.5-2 hours away that is wonderful. Its a pain to drive that far everytime I need a new bra, but I know I'm getting the proper size and can try it on to make sure it works.

 

If that is not an option, I went to HerRoom.com before I discovered the above-mentioned store. There were instructions for how to measure yourself properly and you could buy pretty much any size under the sun there.

 

I don't know how to make a regular bra a nursing bra, but I'm sure there are some crafty mommas out there who can help you with that.
