So when you get pregnant your boobs get huge, and then after you give birth they get enormous, and then if you breastfeed they stay a gigantic size until you finish. Now my point is, why do a lot of clothing shops not cater for every bra size? I have big boobs and have an awful time trying to find a bra that fits.
I went round the local shopping centre yesterday and tried different shops, (New Look, Next and even <3 Yours) My size weren't anywhere, I even tried at Sainsbury's, there was nothing! It was like all the bras my size had vanished into the void...
I've also noticed that nice bras are not generally made for women with big breasts, unless you are willing to spend a fortune on one, which for some women just isn't realistic. This was a problem for me before I was pregnant, I remember being in Primark looking at all the different styles and colours, and even though they said they went to D cup you could never find one, which would leave me having to go and settle for a normal T-Shirt bra, either white, black or nude in colour.
I know that sizes in shops have got better because a 32 D is a lot easier to find now, whereas before it was near enough impossible, though I would love for someone to tell me where to find a 36 F without being charged £30, normal shops don't seem to go that big and then the shops for larger women don't do 36 they start from 38 it's absolutely ridiculous.
Sometimes it feels as though I will be stuck shopping at Mother Care for the rest of my life wearing nursing/maternity bras, though I also found trouble finding a bra there!
Has anyone else experienced this problem, especially as a mum? Let me know in the comments :)
So glad I have a "normal" bra size where I don't have to struggle to find one that is cute and fits!
