So I’m feeling quite down about my boobs since having my baby - previously I was a 32D with no sag, I’ve now been measured and they think 32F... it was the worst experience, it was 2 M&S bra fitters and they kept bringing me granny material bras to try on, plus they weren’t 100% I was a 32F.
My friend told me I had caused my boobs to sag by not getting better bras during pregnancy - I bought some maternity bras which fitted fine but they had no underwire as my baby was high up in my ribs (I’m 5’1 and she was a BIG baby and had nowhere to go, I’ve still got bruised ribs now) it hurt so much that there was no way I could wear underwire. I’m now feeling pretty shit about it all, she said that a bit of pain from underwire would have been better than having saggy boobs - could a bra really have made that much difference?
I’m back to being a size 8 but the boobs just feel and look awful, can toning up help? Buying a bra has been dreadful as my ribs are so bruised and the bras just hurt where they dig in. Tbh I know that other than having a boob job there’s not much hope but just wanted to write down how I was feeling.
