Wow I need this thread this is me. B before babies, 3 breastfed babies later and I don't even know what to call them other than yuck Sad how I wish I had the money for a boob job.

I do t mind day to day I just wear t shirt bras from primark, not too padded because I don't like the bullet proof vest feeling but for sexy time - kind of got myself a fwb situation - I am getting seriously pissed off with not looking or feeling sexy in a sexy bra. I just want a bit of fucking cleavage ffs

Chinks123 · 07/04/2020 21:29

Mine are not droopy but they are small, they’re not big enough to sag, so I can go bra less around the house. After 2 dc they’re still the same as they were before, I had hoped to keep my amazing breastfeeding boobs but Sad
I can make them look big by wearing one of these bras. They’re for if you’re wearing a really low cut dress but I find they give me an amazing cleavage in any kind of slightly low cut dress/top. It’s like a magic trick, people actually say I have great boobs! Have always wanted a boob job and used to wear a water filled bra in high school, but I have a huge arse so I just work with what I have now Grin

M&S High Apex style - top part comes higher and prevents gapping. V comfortable.

Triple boost bras from next are AMAZING! granted my boobs are now 50% flesh and 50% padding, but I feel much more confident Grin.

Jellybean27 · 07/04/2020 21:35

I’m not so bothered about them looking big, more full and a bit higher!

Appreciate the suggestions!

Listen to Statistically-she is a veteran of many years of advising MNers on Bra Intervention threads.

KipperTheFrog · 07/04/2020 21:37

I was advised a balconette for my tiny boobs, but they still gape and I found the ones I tried were hideously uncomfortable. I measured using boob or bust method.
Now wear plunge bras in same size - comfy and fit right. The ones I have are forever comfort from Next and Freya brands.

Mosschopz · 07/04/2020 21:37

Ugh....balconette bras are the last thing you need if your slim and have no boobs...they dig in like crazy on your ribs and you can’t fill them. That’s my experience anyway. Calvin Klein have never let me down.

Chinks123 · 07/04/2020 21:38

Hm id usually suggest balconette then, they usually give a full look and pull mine up a bit, but I see you’ve mentioned about the gapping.

StatisticallyChallenged · 07/04/2020 21:38

Jellybean what size are you wearing, and what dress size are you?

Davros · 07/04/2020 21:39

I opened this to discuss my bird feeding table, I've had a Great Tits on my nuts. I'm disappointed now but hope you find the right bra

whatsleep · 07/04/2020 21:41

The triple boost bra is padded at the bottom, So kind of under the boob. It doesn’t make your boobs huge, just makes them full again rather than, like mine, half empty bags of sand 😂

StatisticallyChallenged · 07/04/2020 21:41

If a bra is digging in like crazy on your ribs, it doesn't fit properly. Often this is actually because it's too big in the band meaning it falls forward at the top away from your torso (gaping), and then the wires aren't sitting right so they dig in as they're angled in to your skin instead of flat.

For some a plunge does work better - a lot depends on your breast shape rather than just fullness. If you're naturally close set (I have this issue) then balconettes can be problematic as they often have too big a gap in the middle. It depends where your breast fullness is.

Speminalium · 07/04/2020 21:42

Triumph do some lovely rounded not very padded bras which give a very nice shape on my distinctly deflated boobs. Independent bra shop were really clever and knew exactly what to do with what's left of me...

GettingAwayWithIt · 07/04/2020 21:45

I’ve always had tiny ones, I don’t personally find styles suit me as they gape at the top. Mine don’t have enough meat on them to sag! I prefer a bralette style. No underwires, so much more comfortable.

Jellybean27 · 07/04/2020 21:46

I’m a 10/12, wearing a 32B @StatisticallyChallenged
Usually a balconette, but I get mega gaping. I’m thinking I need something to lift but not make me spill over the top?

Oh. Ah. Er.

DieSchottin93 · 07/04/2020 21:49

As other posters have said the first thing to check is that you're wearing the right size. If the band is too big you'll have no hope of filling the cups properly. Style also plays a big part as well.

Eucritta · 07/04/2020 21:52

Reading with interest.

I was a 30AA before children, and am pretty much the same now. No saggage, but that's because there's nothing to sag. I also have a pigeon chest, so there's a huge hollow which makes bras even more difficult.

I haven't worn a bra in as long as I can remember, but might now try some of the ones mentioned here.

I'm a bit cheered by my DP of 4 yrs fancying me despite my braless and titless state. Grin

Chocsandcrisps · 07/04/2020 21:56

I was sceptical at first about the Boob or Bust group about rethinking about your bra sizes. Always wore a 32B but after using that group and a bit of trial and error I now wear a 30D/DD and this seems to hold my tiny boobs up and the bra seems to fit better. Plus these weird sizes are always on sale in Next!
