GREAT Bra for post-op, ladies!

Bought this before my surgery and have worn it everyday since. Seems my regular bras are still a little tight (swelling) and this has been so comfortable! They fit true to size and stretch a mile!!! Anyway, thought I'd share:

Thanks so much for this link! Right now I wear a 42 D in Bali bras I wear from Kohls. I can get them for around $20 a bra when they are on sale half price. I'm so sick of the underwire stabbing me under my boobs and the thick sholder straps hanging out the necks of my shirts. Now sure why this is happening because I was measured at layne bryant as a 42 D.

Thanks for posting this website. I have a hard time finding bras that are comfortable for me and in my size, so this is great!

Hi all,

I had my surgery on Tuesday, and I have found the best bra to wear is the stretched out saggy one that doesn't fit very well to begin with (ie. the elastic has stretched out and is a bit big). I find that those bras don't sit snugly on the breastbone, and so they don't hurt my incisions.

You must have been reading my mind. I went looking for something today and couldn't find anything other than an over the head sports bra. I just ordered two - thanks again!!

Dunna,

I hope you like them! I even sleep in mine. If not, that place is really good about returns. Just gives you some support without the pain of a real bra. I wore one home from the hospital. Good luck with your surgery!

I've been wondering about bras. The lap band will be my first operation and I want to know if you can wear a bra. I just have a very large chest.

I was too swollen to wear my regular bra for about a week. The bra that I referenced was wonderful! I'm a 42DD and this gave me a little support with complete comfort. I like it because it hooks in the front, so easy on and off. You're not going to get full support, but it's better than braless!
