Help me find a bra I can stand to wear!

Since covid I’ve had 2 babies back to back and basically stopped wearing a bra at all. I find them all so uncomfortable!
Im starting to try and get myself back together and get out of hoodies. All of my clothes look awful because my stomach is now bigger than my boobs 🙁🙁

They have completely deflated. Maybe an A or B cup at most. No tissue at the top any more either so any bra I wear gapes at the top.

I cant afford a boob job. Can anyone reccomend a bra that will make me look like I have shape under clothes but won’t drive me mad. I hate the feeling of a wired or band but then again do wireless bras give you good enough shape?

Help much appreciated!

Hey OP, I recognise the problem 😁
Can't stand wired bras either but have very little volume left after the kids so I wear M&S lightly padded, non-wired 'post surgery' cami bras. They aren't just for post surgery but that's the name of the style. I'll post a link.
Honestly, they're brilliant. And so comfortable and unlike that restrictive/digging in bra feel that has you clawing your own skin off!
I've just bought a pleasant pink one, and they do the usual standard colours.
You might need to try a couple of different sizes.
Changed the way I feel about bras and stopped me feeling like I have a bizarre body!

I gave up bras and wear a scarf instead

A scarf is an idea 😄 this has came about as I was trying to find a dress for a party, but I literally look the strangest shape. It’s awful, babies have ruined my body!

@Threewheeler1 ooh I’ll have a look. If I do try and wear a bra the band irritates me to the point I took it off last time and went without! I never had this problem pre children.
