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

Do you wear your bra in bed?

After open heart surgery I did. Lying on my side and having a boob flop over, either stretched or crunched the incision. Now I just wear a T-shirt to bed, that fits well.

maddiemookins16mum · 04/07/2022 19:03

God no, mine is whipped off as soon as I shut my computer down.

maddiemookins16mum · 04/07/2022 19:04

I WFH by the way 🙂

No, I can't be comfy in bed wearing a bra. It seems to tighten in the night and leave marks. The only time I'd wear a bra at night was on the post natal ward after having my kids as I felt exposed and sore otherwise.

No. I'm huuuge and it's a relief to take it off. Also I'm so sore underneath, it's good to get some air on them.

Asda baby liquid talc may be your friend here.

I never wear one during the day, let alone at night…….

Sillystripytail · 04/07/2022 19:08

I'm a 36G and I've never liked wearing a bra to bed. I've tried bralettes or nonwired but they just push my boobs together so I get a sweaty cleavage which is horrible. So I'm always braless but I always wear a pyjama top so they're somewhat protected.

Stomacharmeleon · 04/07/2022 19:08

I wear a bra, slip vest thing and knickers.
I just like to feel tucked in...
Also I don't like the dog seeing me naked :)

amylou8 · 04/07/2022 19:17

Yes a soft one (my day bra goes as soon as I walk through the door). Big boobs and it's uncomfortable without.

TiredSloth · 04/07/2022 19:20

I do. I have sensory issues (recently realised that I may be autistic for many reasons) and I can’t stand the feeling of boobs and nipples flopping about. I also wear knickers and full pj’s though as I hate sleeping naked and I cosleep with my dc.

wendywoopywoo222 · 04/07/2022 19:21

I have huge boobs
but can't bear to wear anything to bed so no I don't.

Chocolatesandroses · 04/07/2022 19:22

Defiantly not , I find them uncomfortable during the day I can’t wait to take it off at night time

NickyNora · 04/07/2022 19:22

Yes, I always wear a bra to bed.

I'm wondering if women are wearing poorly fitted bras as my bras aren't uncomfortable.

MaxOverTheMoon · 04/07/2022 18:34

@ShirleyPhallus have you never had conversations with your friends about whether you sleep naked or not? Gosh me and my friends send each other pictures of our period poos, talking about naked sleeping is nothing!

Yes, some of them, but some friends like NCT mums or work colleagues then no, I’d have no idea.

Sending pictures of your poo to each other is absolutely disgusting 🤮

GroinPain · 04/07/2022 19:22

Always have, and I'm only 34B! Feels weird without it on.

queenatom · 04/07/2022 19:24

Yes, currently breastfeeding and I leak overnight if I don't wear breast pads - I wear a soft unwired bra for sleep just to hold the pads in place. Looking forward to going braless to bed once more!

girlfriend44 · 04/07/2022 19:27

What's a soft bra, is that not underwired?

PumpkinSpicedLatte22 · 04/07/2022 19:27

No, I let them dangle in my armpits at night

mum11970 · 04/07/2022 19:28

Yes, 9 times out of 10.

GoldenSpiral · 04/07/2022 19:31

I wear a bra to bed. It's so much more comfortable. I don't understand when people say that bras are uncomfortable. Maybe they don't fit properly? Or maybe I'm just weird...

EddieHowesBlackandWhiteArmy · 04/07/2022 19:34

I Always wear a bra in bed, I hate not having a bra on, the feeling of boobs au naturel gives me the ick. My bra is very rarely uncomfortable. I barely notice it most of the time so I don’t recognise that feeling of needing to take it off as soon as you get in the door.

OhGingleBells · 04/07/2022 19:39

Occasionally wear a crop-top or bralette instead but usually a regular underwired bra. 30D so not big. Just prefer it.

Veryverycalmnow · 04/07/2022 19:43

Yes, started when pregnant, a soft bralette thing to hold them in place without discomfort. Apparently marilyn monroe wore a bra in bed. No evidence for that, just something I've heard.

Loveisnotloving · 04/07/2022 19:47

I do, can't bear the feeling of my big boobs Big Benning all over the gaff.

SirVixofVixHall · 04/07/2022 19:48

AnyFucker · 04/07/2022 18:10

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

Same here.
