how to ask for a bigger bra....?

Q. Im 13 i live with my 23 yr old brother,i used to live with my grandma she bought me sports bras cause thats all i needed,but she died 4 months ago.and in the last few months i have been noticeing i need a bigger bra.the only other people in my family beside my bro are distant and live hours away.help me!!!

Answer
well, he's 23, i'm sure he knows what bra's are. just tell him you need him to take you shopping. go to the mall and go to a store like La Senza, or another store that specializes in underwear and bras. Just tell them you need a bra that's a size bigger. It's always only women that work there so you don't need to feel uncomfortable. They will measure you and find a bra that will fit you. your brother doesnt even need to come in with you, he can wait in the food court or check out another store while you're in there. you don't need to be embarrassed or anything when you ask your brother, he knows that girls need bras and that you dont have another woman to ask take you. Or you could ask your best friends mom to take you if you'd feel more comfortable doing that. I'm sure she would undersatnd! :)

How To Tell Mom I Need a Bigger Bra Size.?

Q. 1 year ago my mom bought me my first bra, it was a 32A. I was starting to feel a little uncomfortable last month so i fixed the straps, and i still felt uncomfortable. So i google how to measure your breasts i turned out to be a 36A. My mom and i don't feel comfortable talking to each other about that stuff, it is akward for both of us,so how do i HINT to her that i need a bigger bra.
THANKS TO ALL OF YOU THAT HAVE BEEN ANSWERING!!!

There have been some pretty good answers so far

Answer
me and my mom used to be the same way.

until one day i was fidgeting, with the bra, and she said that she thinks that its time for a bigger size.

or just casually bring it up while you are out shopping with her one day, and tell her that your bra is too tight.

i know you're probably looking at this like its easier said than done because actually, it is. but once you ask you'll realize that its not that big a deal. your mom didn't stay the same bra size forever, and she knows that you're not going to. trust me, when you tell her, you will fill a lot better, and your lungs will thank you because it will be so much easier to breathe (:

Do I need a bigger bra?

Nina

I wear a plain white (not pushup) underwire 34A bra. My breasts fill the bra, but when wearing that bra I realize there is some skin bulging out. I adjust the straps higher, but unfortunately my breasts sag, so whenever the bra goes higher it goes above part of my breast. Should I get a bigger bra? I don't know how to say to my mom that I need one if I do, my family is tight on money.

Answer
It sounds like you do need a bigger bra. The best way to know for sure though is to get measured. They do it for free at Victoria's Secret and a few other places. When you're wearing the right size bra, you will be MUCH more comfortable. I used to think that I was a 38B, but I found out I'm a 32E!

Victoria's Secret Bra's are pretty pricey however. Walmart has cheap ones, as does Target and occasionally Kohl's. Watch for sales, because the bras can be pretty expensive otherwise.

Just tell you're mom that you grew and need a new bra. If you're too scared to, then you can go out and buy one yourself. I wouldn't recommend that though. It's what I did, and even though I'm years past puberty, I still can't talk to my mom about 'girl stuff'. Your relationship with your mother will be better because of it if you can get pas this slighly awkward hurdle. Trust me. :)

Good luck, hun! :D

Bra...too big??? ..................?

*La*La*La*

Ok so, i have recently been using a bigger sized bra, from 32 A to 32 B. They are my sisters old bras that she only wore a few times before she realised she was too small for them. Anyway i fit into the cup but at the bottom of the cup, where the underwire bit is there is a fairly large gap.
It is almost as if my boobs aren't saggy enough...

Why is this?
Because my A bra's were too small as it was kinda bulging a bit over the top.

Could it be that my sister stretched them a little? All the bras this seem to do this.


Thanks Amz x
So if it is a little too big, what size would you suggest...because 32 A was too small? Do i need a smaller back size like 30B?

Answer
That bra is a little too big for you, the ideal bra sits against the chest bone between your boobs. If you pop out the side of the bra, you're too big for it!

When did you buy maternity bras/bigger bras b/c of pregnancy?

jen

Mine are kinda getting small already now (only 12 weeks) but I don't want to get new bras now and then need to get more later! But if I should I will... What do you think?
I meant my regular bra is snug.

Thanks to all for the answers!

Answer
I bought a nursing bra in my third trimester when my normal bras were getting too small in the cup. If you're just too small around your chest and you're already on the last latch - you can invest in an extender for $2 at Joann Fabrics. Wait until you're pouring out the top to get your nursing bra - or sometime in the last couple months, that way you'll be sure it's big enough, as your breasts will get larger once you start nursing. Worst case scenario if you're already pouring out now....buy an inexpensive regular bra (Gillian O'Malley at Target) that is just a little larger. It may only last you four more months - when you'll likely be ready for a real nursing bra in a much larger size - but you can also use that bra again once you stop nursing. Your breasts may end up staying a little larger at least for a while.
Also - the Gillian O'Malley nursing bras are only $15 - so if you do go ahead and get one now...you'll at least not have to spend too much if it doesn't last that long.

Is a 32D a big bra size?

Victoria

I'm 16 and i weigh 45kgs and i am 159cm tall, and my bra size is a 32D. All my friends say my boobs are HUGE but i don't really think they are? Maybe its just cause i'm used to them? but i just want to know, is a 32D considered to be big bra size?
thx :)

Answer
Most people would consider it big, but only because they don't know how bra sizes work and think D is the biggest size possible.

In reality, D cups are not big and bra sizes can go to K, sometimes L depending on where you look: http://thebrafitter.com.au/index.php/myth-no-2-dd-cup-is-huge/

VAST majority of large breasted women who claim to be D cups should actually be in F or higher but places like Victoria's Secret perpetuate the myth that DDD is the biggest cup size available. So women who should actually be in Ds buy B-C cups because D cups are supposedly huge when they're not.

Should i get a bigger bra ? ?

Gabriella

so i wear a size A32 ( i know tiny) and i just mesured myself and it was 32 and 1/2 so , should i get the next bra size up or just wait til i grow more ? ige worn A32 since like grade seven but im growing

Answer
I think if you bra you have now is getting small/tight on you then you should get a bigger bra. Or just try on the next bigger size and if it fits good get it or a lil to big get it cuz I got a bra that was my size and now it does not fit me cuz 4 some reason my body just wants to grow out ugh no wonder people think I'm like 15. And if you want you boobs lol to look nicer you should get a padding bra or push bra it helps! And if you don't you should go to Victoria S! :)
