There is no denying it, I may only be 20 weeks pregnant but my underwear collection already needs a rewrite. My baby bump may not be here yet but the increase to my chest size certainly is. Looking through the NHS advice and midwife advice, at this point I should be looking for new bras to last me the next few months which accommodate my ever increasing frame. However all the advice says I need to ditch the underwiring and go back to non-wired alternatives.
I haven’t worn a non-wired bra since I was about 15! Looking online and during a dire trip to M&S all the non-wired options I can find can only be described as hideous and each cup is the size of my head! Without the wiring an F cup seems to be made of twice as much material to provide the same support. Surely they can’t be suggesting that I wear something that my Gran wouldn’t even be seen dead in?
As soon as I search for non-wired bras of my size, google seems to think I want a maternity bra. While they will certainly be needed at the end of this nine month process I don’t think I really need a breast feeding mechanism right now.
Any advice on shops, websites or designs would be gratefully appreciated. I cannot believe I am the only woman who has a decent sized rack and can’t find a bra that doesn’t make me feel like a 50’s washer woman! Thanks everyone.
