I don't. I know someone who wears a soft bra in bed?

Do you wear your bra in bed?

Yes. A soft one as I have enormous breasts and it’s more comfortable.

Iusyje · 04/07/2022 18:10

Nope, why would anyone do that? It's bad enough having to wear it during the day.

Arthurbear0306 · 04/07/2022 18:10

I started wearing a bralette to bed during early pregnancy as my boobs were so sore! 2 years later I’m still wearing one as I find it far more comfortable

AnyFucker · 04/07/2022 18:10

Yes. I wear soft bras in bed. I hate the feeling of boobs flopping about.

FawnFrenchieMum · 04/07/2022 18:12

Yes I wear a soft bralette type thing. Big boobs flapping about and DH laying on a stray nipple isn’t fun!

inmyslippers · 04/07/2022 18:12

Yes I'm autistic and I hate not wearing a bra.

ComDummings · 04/07/2022 18:14

Yes I always have

BalloonsAndWhistles · 04/07/2022 18:14

No. I never even knew it was a thing until I saw a woman doing it on telly and I asked DH felt a bit weird asking him 😆😆

notapizzaeater · 04/07/2022 18:14

Yes, huge boobs, bloody uncomfortable without

ComDummings · 04/07/2022 18:15

I hate not wearing a bra. Feel so vulnerable without one. It’s a bit weird I suppose.

RenegadeMatron · 04/07/2022 18:15

God no.

ofwarren · 04/07/2022 18:15

Yes but its a Molke bra so it's comfortable.

Womencanlift · 04/07/2022 18:15

God no! Big breasted girl here and it’s off as soon as I am home and doesn’t go back on until the next morning. Even soft ones are less comfortable than free flowing imo

Hugasauras · 04/07/2022 18:15

I do at the moment as I'm breastfeeding and my boobs get so heavy and engorged. The pressure of a bra or nursing vest really helps with that.

LaWench · 04/07/2022 18:16

Only when I have hormonal tenderness and I need then strapped up.

Hugasauras · 04/07/2022 18:17

Also I stopped wearing underwired bras four or five years ago. I only wear non-underwired ones, so don't get that feeling of relief I used to get at ripping my bra off after work!

StrawberryLipstickStateOfMind1 · 04/07/2022 18:17

A crop top rather than a proper bra, I find it comfier.

GingersHaveSoulsToo · 04/07/2022 18:18

A sleep bra yes. 32GG though so might be a size thing.

Cloud16 · 04/07/2022 18:18

Sometimes. Depends if I can be arsed taking it off. Mostly sleep without one though.

AliceMcK · 04/07/2022 18:19

No, I’ve tried as I have big boobs and nipple crunches are excruciating when either DH or one of the DCs crawls into bed and lies on my boobs. But I can’t stand wearing one, I get heat rashes every time I’ve tried. Same with tight sports tops or vests I’d just rather they hang down the sides now and let my cleavage breath.

LegInLegOut · 04/07/2022 18:19

No, I never have. I have a EE cup so half of the time they're tucked into my armpits it seems.

MaxOverTheMoon · 04/07/2022 18:20

No and I only have one friend who does. I take my bra off as soon as I can and regularly go out without one if I can get away with it. Free the boobies and all that.

MiddleParking · 04/07/2022 18:21

I do because I need to wear breast pads, but it’s a sleep bra so it’s more like a soft cotton wrap-crop top. I’d rather die than sleep in an actual bra, bad enough wearing one in the daytime. (Actually, when I stop having to wear a nursing bra at all times I’m planning to replace my daytime bras with seamless crop top style ones. I hate wearing a wired bra.)

DorothyZbornakIsAQueen · 04/07/2022 18:22

My bra is almost simultaneously taken off as I'm stepping through my front door.

I do change into a croptop type bra tho as I find it more comfortable. I sleep in said crop top, as I am peri and it stops my cleavage sweating more than it normally does.

SarahShorty · 04/07/2022 18:22

No. But then I have mosquito-bite boobs.
