Again, thanks to everyone. The issue I keep having is finding a 42B bra.  Torrid didn’t have anything, and I finally started getting comfortable looking at bras in the larger department stores and Walmart but I didn’t find 42Bs.   All the wonderful bras suggested didn’t come in a 42 B So sad.  But I talked with a sales associate at Lane Bryant and she was able to order me an Invisible Backsmoother Boost Plunge Bra in both a 40B and 42B. And they should be in this week.  Cause i was wondering if I got all my boob in the cup maybe a 40B would work, and if that’s the case, it opens up a lot of options as I did find several 40B bras on line.  Also, once I get the sizing figured out, Herroom has some 40B and 42B bras that I can try.

HerRoom is a great website. I've never bought a bra from them, but I have a browse every now and then to see what's there. I love the selectable feature filter, where you can, for example, search for bras that have side boning.

Also in browsing some older threads I came across a recommendation for Anita bras as they have bras in the larger band size with smaller cups of B and some A’s. Their site had a shop local search so i was able to find two nearby stores that carry Anita.  I’ll be calling them when they open tomorrow see if they have the larger bands in stock and book a fitting.

A bra fitting and trying on are so important.  Please let us know how it goes

I wear Aniita bras (also known as Rosa Faia). Comfortable, well made and supportive. Their Twin series is available in underwire and softcup. Their sports bras are wonderful too.

I would say go get a fitting. Anything after 40X, it starts getting difficult find any bigger sizes. I usually buy 38b/c and use an extender. 
For preference, it's totally up to you. I like simple t-shirt bras with underwire and slightly padded.

Since the company headquarters of Anita is located in my country, there is a wide range of bras and panties.

I own the Anita Safina bra 5448



and plan to buy the Anita Momentum sports bra 5529 also.

A bra is just an article of clothing for people with breasts.

I definitely recommend Anita bras. I wear the Momentum bra and find it's well made and very comfortable.   I have also tried the Jana bra and that's great too and currently on my shopping list.

The Safina looks like a wonderfully supportive bra

Best of luck and have fun!!!

Don't rush it. Try as many different bras as you can. Also, don't just stand when you are trying on each bra. Make sure you sit, reach, bend at your waist, and even hug yourself. You want to make sure that your girls stay in the cups as you do routine things throughout the day.

^ I'll second that, even though I've never gone in for a fitting!

It makes sense doesn't it, that if you want your bra to be just as comfortable at the end of the day as at the beginning, you need to replicate all the sorts of things that you will subject it to while you're trying it out instore!

The most comfortable bras will always be the ones that you forget you're wearing, no matter what you do during the day.
