I wear what looks like a sports bra but for pregnant ppl, they're softer and more stretchy. Soooooo comfy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/underwire-bras#post-53459 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 00:58:19 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 53459@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can't imagine not wearing an underwire--I have worn them my whole life.<br /> I have gone up three sizes since I have been pregnant and am currently wearing bras in the correct size. However, I feel a lot of pain by the end of the day and can't wait to take my bra off, just like you. I just figured the uncomfortableness was a normal part of being pregnant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/underwire-bras#post-53429 Mon, 16 Jan 2012 22:06:35 +0000 loveisstrange 53429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sounds like you're wearing the wrong size.</p> <p>I'm 30 weeks and I've been wearing underwire all along. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/underwire-bras#post-53412 Mon, 16 Jan 2012 21:34:57 +0000 MsMini 53412@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I switched to no-wire nursing bras when I got re-sized at 21 weeks. I had gone from an F cup to an H cup, so I figured I might as well. I find them much more comfortable for the time being. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/underwire-bras#post-53407 Mon, 16 Jan 2012 21:30:11 +0000 cvbee 53407@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm guessing it's your band size too small?<br /> My ribs hurt but lower than where my bra is...I think it's because of things shifting.<br /> I wear my underwires even to bed sometimes. 25 weeks and still no issues here. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/underwire-bras#post-53385 Mon, 16 Jan 2012 21:06:26 +0000 CameronsMomma 53385@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm wearing an underwire bra, and will continue to wear one. I find a bra without underwire just doesn't support me enough for me to be able to wear it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/underwire-bras#post-52296 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 20:36:02 +0000 venice4504 52296@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always wear underwires and I had the same issues as the OP. I learned from my OB that it was nerves that the underwire was hitting that was making the contraption hurt. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/underwire-bras#post-52288 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 19:54:43 +0000 heffalump 52288@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't worn an underwire since I was 16. I go for comfort over beauty. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/underwire-bras#post-52283 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 19:44:46 +0000 MegWag 52283@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 32 weeks and still wearing my pre-preg underwires. I know they aren't the right size anymore, but I just never got around to replacing them. They do dig into the top of my belly now a little, but I figure it's not so bad for the last 8 weeks or so (I guess I'm cheap) and I'll get properly fitted ones once my milk comes in and it's really important. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/underwire-bras#post-52278 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 19:37:25 +0000 T.H.O.U. 52278@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wore them all the way through pregnancy and now with breastfeeding. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/underwire-bras#post-52277 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 19:35:01 +0000 jennylynn 52277@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've always worn an underwire bra and have never found them to be uncomfortable. I'm now 26 pregnant, and I seriously cannot wait to take my bra off! I feel like it rubs the area under my boobs and the very top of my belly where it starts to round to the point where it hurts! I bought new bras, which initially I thought were better, but after wearing them for a whole 12 hr shift at work, I'm still uncomfortable. Maybe I didn't go big enough on the band size? Or is it the actual underwire? Are any of you still wearing underwire bras? I tried on a bra without it and I felt naked and squished. </p>
