    For the last 8+ years i have been pregnant and in need of 40dd's. Now that my tubes are tied, I am coming back into my old shape. How exactly do you find a well fitting bra---what do you measure

    what you do is measure around your chest underneath your breasts--so you don't have any booby-flesh in your measurement--and then around your chest, going across your nipples. the first sum is the number you'll need, in inches. to figure your cup size, subtract your chest measurement from your breast measurement. 1/2 (inch) is aa, 1 is a, 2 is b, and so on.

    then there's the comfort issue.

    i've found that hanes and jockey bras are the best for overall comfort--they're sportier than most, though. right now i'm wearing a vanity fair bra that i love--no underwires and you can move the straps from standard to x-back. and it's always good to have a strapless, preferably one with removable straps.

    * * *

    hope that helps. and for the measuring, get someone else to do it--by bending over to peek at the tape measure you can mess it up.

    a saleslady told me once,

    the cup size of a 36B is the same as a 38A

    34C is same as 36B

    and so on...

    no wonder when 34B's were too binding and i wanted to move up, 36B's were too voluminous and floppy...
