Hey guys, Wanted to get everyone's take on this.

My mother decided to help me and she ordered me a few sports/leisure bras in different sizes. Her line of thinking is that since I am 6 days post op and will be losing weight fast it would help my breast during this phase if I slept in these bras. Opinions?

Unless they snap up the front I would think that putting on and taking off a traditional sports bra right after surgery would hurt. Regular sports bras are one piece and you tug them up and over your head, this action stretches muscles that I think would be tender for a while?

Ohhhh dear, I slept in sports bras for 3 months, and the girls still headed south. I wore medium impact (they were sucked in pretty tight), and it didn't help mine one single bit. I went from a 40-42D/DD to a tiny 32/34B. Some don't lose their boobs though so you might get lucky.

Some people swear that wearing shapers and such help with loose skin. Personally, I believe genetics, age, and how long we've been fat contribute way more to our skin after major weight loss.

Thanks Guys,

I know she is trying to help. The one's she got are front closured so they are easy enough to put on and take off. I am not sure what will happen with my breasts. Wearing them while I sleep isn't really an issue because well I am single lol, and they are comfortable enough. I just wasn't sure if people have heard that this might help or might not.

Thanks
