Which bra for dangly post bf boobs please?

Tomorrow I plan to buy a bra that fits. I live nowhere near a decent underwear shop and will have 3 kids in tow, so it won't be easy. But I am sick of wearing my old ones I no longer fill and find uncomfy.
For the past 6 years I have been pregnant then breastfeeding on repeat. I stopped 4 months ago and now my former D cups must be an A or a B.
I know I need to get measured but there is never any time, so in the meantime, can someone help me out please?
Which style will be most comfy/ flattering? I used to go for balcony but that doesn't seem to working any more.
Thanks!

I wear a yoga bra now post bf, so comfy and supportive. I found normal wired bras uncomfortable, it might be best to wait until your breasts have settled, if you know what I mean, before buying new bras. I'm a year post bf now and mine have filled out a bit again.

Oh love I have just had to smile at that title. "Dangly" 😂 killed me.

I like Sainsbury’s - good value, they have sports bra crop tops that are v comfy and comfort underwires for £6 - I’ve yet to brave a proper bra shop either!

booborbust.com. Try this for an idea of what size to go for. If you have dangly boobs you will not be an A or B cup as that means only 1 or 2 inches difference between under and over bust measurements.

just don't invest too much.

mine looked likes shrivelled prunes after 6 years of pregnancy and BF (2 DC, BF for 2.5 years each with only a few weeks of a gap).

after a year, the fatty tissue had regrown and my breast looked very much again like before.

I use the Sainsbury's £6 ones too!

Ok great, thanks. I'd want to try it on though. I'm not sure I can do that in Sainsbury's? We have a Peacocks and an M&Co.

big Sainsbury's have fitting rooms. otherwise I find the easy going when you want to return stuff.
