I hurt so much - 19 weeks +5. My boobs are too big.

I was busty before pregnancy. But I'm now a 36 KK. All the maternity bras are only soft cup - and offer no where near enough support. I bought a normal full cup wired bra a few wekes ago - but was advised to try a 38 J as they didn't have y size. It doesn't support me either. My boobs are so heavy. My upper back is killing me. Even at night. I've just come back from honeymoon (three weeks in Japan and Hong Kong). Back in the office and I am trying not to cry with how much my back hurts. It's okay if I walk (but I can only manager walking for 30 mins a time... and obviously can't type while walking anyway). It's getting so bad that even sleeping hurts.

I don't know what to do. I can't keep going like this. And I've another 20 weeks to go before baby arrives.

I'm also busty (and growing) and a properly fitted underwire will make all the difference. The J is 3 cups too small, it'll be killing you!

Yeah :( it's also too big on the back. So it either rubs (ergh... or my boobs nearly fall out the bottom.

I went to Bravissimo and John Lewis at lunch. Neither of them have properly fitting wired bras in my size. All the maternity stuff seems to stop offering wires at an option at an H cup.

Maybe try Molke bras? Soft and I think they do mega cups.

It’s shite having bigger busy during pregnancy - I’m a GG and finding bras is a nightmare

Thanks both. It's really painful. i could cope with a bit of discomfort. But I can't sit in my work chair at the moment (but I have to). they're weighing me down quite literally and my back aches. It's making it even harder to sleep at night too.

Bravissimo definitely sell that size, they go up to an L, so they must have been low on stock.

I have a Molke but I have to admit that it doesn't do much except give me sweaty cleavage!

here's what bravissimo have

It might also be worth trying freya who do up to a K cup but their cups are generous compared to bravissimo own brand.

Thanks - the shop assistant was really insistent they only had non-wired stock in. I'll order something online. I've also ordered a Molke - might be good for sleeping in?
