I bought three new bras today.

[xmas74]

And they actually fit! I had to leave town to buy them so that sucked.

Ask me whatever.

[joneschick]

1. it really is all breasts , all lounge tonight!

and congratualtions on finding 3 bras that FIT. Being a mom with 3 teenage daughters,well, it's often an issue.

[xmas74]

2. I was surprised to find out the mood of the lounge tonight.

I went shopping w/ my daughter and actually found something that fit.
I'm shocked right now. I can't find my size in my town and was pleased to find them somewhere today.

I did spend more than I wanted today.:(

[WCGreen]

3. Bras.... Ohhhhhhh

[xmas74]

9. The bigger the cup

the luckier you feel when you find a bra that actually fits.
Most stores seem to think that if you have a larger cup you must be very large and overweight and they make them w/ these outrageous band sizes.
I'm big cupped and average chest so it's a great find for me.

[WCGreen]

11. Mrs. WCGreen has the same problem....

[xmas74]

12. They seem to think that if you are anything bigger than

a D cup you must be 50 inches around.

Not the case here.

[yellowdogintexas]

33. or six feet tall so the edges of the band are up in your arm pit if

you can even GET the straps short enough.

[xmas74]

36. Bingo!

And I'm only 5'2".

[yellowdogintexas]

55. 5'4" ...the voice of experience! nt

[AirmensMom]

4. Is this practice for when you lose weight and have to buy smaller ones?

:bounce:

[xmas74]

6. Triple D right now.

Even if I lose all the weight and got down to high school level it would still be a DD (and I graduated weighing 102 lbs at the time).

Most women lose weight in their chest, I usually don't. I just needed the bras and found the right size. My old bras have lost their underwires.

[AirmensMom]

26. That must be a challenge.

I'm glad you found some! :)

[xmas74]

27. I was quite happy too.

I tried to substitute w/ buying a bigger chest band size, hoping there would be more room for a bigger cup. Turns out that doesn't work very well.

I'd like to lose a couple of cups but I won't hold my breath. As long as they don't look like rocks in socks I'll be fine.

[Radical Activist]

47. I love you

oh excuse me...I didn't mean to say that. Something about the DD...sorry.

[xmas74]

48. It's actually a DDD.

I could smother you.

[Radical Activist]

49. hehehe

Would you? :bounce:

[xmas74]

50. Hey now-be serious.

I was so afraid to nurse my daughter when she was a newborn. I was afraid that I would smother her.

Got over it real fast and now they are admired by men everywhere, as they should be.

[Radical Activist]

52. be serious...

I'm having trouble with that.
But I'm glad if you have made peace with your body.

[xmas74]

54. Still want a reduction for my 40th birthday.

That will be in 8 1/2 years.

I figure that would be about the time to start worrying about severe backaches.

[bigwillq]

5. WOO HOO!

:toast:

What colors are they???

[xmas74]

7. One plain white,

one is a lacy black and one is white w/ pale pink polka dots. The pale pink dots is nice-lots of lace. And the black and white are both the very low plunge type-they push it all up better.

[bigwillq]

16. WOO HOO!

Got any pics???? I wanna see them! :evilgrin:

[xmas74]

18. Not right now.

Maybe someday I will.

Besides, my daughter is in the room. She'd be rather curious as to why mom is taking pics of herself in her bra and sending them to strangers!

[bigwillq]

19. LOL!

You never have to post those pics. I am just joking around. :)

[xmas74]

20. I know you are

but there are others here...

[Arugula Latte]

8. Nothing like new bras to give you a lift --

physically, mentally, literally, figuratively ...

[xmas74]

10. I actually wore one out of the shop.

I paid for them and asked the saleswoman if she would keep one out. She laughed and said that it wasn't as uncommon a request as I thought it was.
I threw the one that I was wearing away in the first trash can I could find.

[Wapsie B]

13. Cool.

I've known some fairly large-breasted women and I can't see how you gals with a little endowment do it. It almost looks like a harness rather than a piece of clothing. But then that's why I try to help women out of those things whenever I can. :evilgrin:

[xmas74]

14. Mine need to stay in the harness.

They've been used to actually nurse a baby. They're not as pretty as they used to be.

[Wapsie B]

25. Pretty?

Hmmm........that makes them look all the more sexy to me. I mean perky is great but those who have nursed....let's just say there'd be no complaint from me.

[xmas74]

28. But there are complaints from me.

They just don't sit up as well nowadays.

Someday I want a reduction. It's my planned present for my 40th birthday.

[Wapsie B]

29. Yeah you're the one who has to deal with them everyday.

But as far as someone else finding them attractive I know there are guys like me who appreciate the glory of the female body of all shapes and sizes. If a woman has the kind of eyes that melt my heart it's all good.

[xmas74]

30. I have a lot of men stare

but it's obvious that they are afraid of them at the same time.
A male friend used to say that there was a fear of being smothered.

[Wapsie B]

31. Size don't scare me.

Just more to have fun with. There are all sorts of things that big-breasted women can enjoy. You know how all us guys are supposed to be fixatd on tits? Maybe they were fantasizing?

35. "Nursing does not diminish the beauty of a woman's breasts;

it enhances their charm by making them look lived in and happy." -- Robert A. Heinlein

[xmas74]

38. Heinlein was evolved.

Most of the men in my area are knucklescrapers.

[khashka]

41. Ah , but you have me :)

One of Heinlein's Children.

I remember him saying something about the beauty of "baby chewed breasts" - kind of an ugly image but he was right. There is something profoundly beautiful about a body truly lived in.....

Khash.

[xmas74]

42. Well, this body has been lived in.

BTW-can you guess who is less than an hour from my house right now? And me w/ no babysitter!

[tinfoilinfor2005]

15. Guys always flip out when women do the

Take-the-bra-off-while-wearing-the-clothes trick. :)

[xmas74]

17. I have that mastered.

I remember watching Flashdance and watching her do that. Once I had to start wearing bras I practiced nonstop until I had the move perfected.

[supernova]

21. Hey, so did I!

I bought three new Wonderbras, which fit me perfectly. I'm having my pic taken tomorrow and I wanted to look my best. Nothing says sucky clothes like a worn out bra.

[xmas74]

23. Exactly.

My "girls" were hanging a bit lately. Now they are standing at attention-like they should be.

Even my plain looking shirts look 1000x better w/ my new bras on!

[judaspriestess]

22. I'm a 36DD

I really like Warners brand.

[xmas74]

24. Warners isn't too bad.

I'm 36DDD.

My main problems are 1) You can't find anything over a D cup in my small town. I have to drive about an hour to find something that actually fits. And
2) The money you have to pay. I hate paying out $50 and up for a decent bra that fits and will not fall apart in a month or two!

[yellowdogintexas]

34. try being a 38 DDD when y ou should really be a 36 DDDD

hard to find.

[LostinVA]

32. Victoria's Secret??? Theirs are great!

[xmas74]

37. I've never found past a D cup in my local store.

Found a DD once in a catalog.
I love their bras but none of them fit. I'm a 36DDD. Even when I weighed 102 lbs I used to have to shop in plus size shops just for bras.
At least larger bras are prettier than they used to be.

[GalleryGod]

39. Hmmmm? ya' don't say?

Hey! Don't ask me!

[xmas74]

43. I'm bigger.

[khashka]

40. And they fit!

Well that's a turn up for the books! Girls and bras - it staggers the imagination what discomfort women will put up with. (OK, OK, I realize tits weren't one of God's greatest inventions.)

Still, check out BitchPHD.com - she has some really good advice about buying bras that fit and are comfortable.


Khash.

[xmas74]

44. Thank you sweetie.

I'll check it out. I'm tired of bras in general but don't want to go w/o them. I'm afraid of having the "rocks in socks" look develop over time.

[Deja Q]

45. What, no pics?

:bounce::bounce:

:D

[xmas74]

46. "The girls" have nursed a human baby.

Do you really want to see that?

[Deja Q]

51. I doubt I'd recognize the difference between 'before' and 'after' anyway.

:shrug:

What is the difference, or should I ask?

[xmas74]

53. They don't stand quite as tall as they used to.

They used to be very perky (even for their size) before.

They don't sag now but they don't quite stand at attention anymore.
