Really uncomfortable under my boobs

Just wondering if anyone else has got this and has found a solution? I'm getting a really sore and irritable skin feeling under my boobs, in the crack between my boobs and bump, especially when sitting down. I have tried all different bras known to woman and am now in a really soft non-wired one, which is better than it was, but still not perfect. By the end of the day I just want to rip all my clothes off! The skin itself isn't red or flakey or anything.

I had this as well, and I did eventually develop red skin on the creases under my boobs. Basically, I just try avoiding wearing a bra when I am indoors, and try to keep the area under my boobs as dry as possible. In fact when I come out of shower or bath I use the hairdryer to dry under my boobs Blush. Also, I got a woman from "Bosom Buddies" (give it a google) to come to my house and fit me for some Emma Jane maternity bras and maternity tops. They are super comfy!

Ooooh thanks Chineapple - I'll take a look. Although can't believe I'm going to spend anymore money on bras.....!

I get red and itchy in these areas, and also on the fold where my thighs meet my pelvis - basically my knicker and bra lines. I chuck on some E45 cream every other day after drying after a bath, and it seems to keep the redness and itching at bay.

Use some corn flour (or talc if you prefer) on the area after you bathe. It helps Grin
