Growth again.

Well I am hoping to find a few racerback bras that will help project now.  Not squish.  They are sensitive and I am not sure, but I think I am starting to head into C cup territory and the bras do seem a bit snug. They are rated for B/C, but.....

So last night, the other half and I went to eat.  While waiting to be seated, I noticed multiple and much younger men walking around with spare tires. 

Now as stated I am no Viking God, and i do NOT have the SchwaMomoa waist. I still have a small ponche. It isn't huge and NOTHING like my father's who looked like he swallowed a mule.  

So I turned to her and made a comment on the "largess" of the men, and she turned to me and said.. "I cant see your belly because your boobs are draping your shirt over it..."


Well now.    A backhanded complement, but Ill take it.

That brought a giggle out loud from me.

I really enjoy Bluelilly and Fittin bra brands for racerback. They have a few options for sports compression and support fit for less snug and more lift. If looking for lift and projection they are fair priced and hold up very well. I have a couple of their racerbacks for running and more compression for that activity but they aren’t snug and uncomfortable.
If sore and sensitive it sounds like you may be growing and may be best to keep options held off till it subsides to see if you do grow just how much. Hate to buy a or couple bras just for them to be too small

I spent the day at the County Fair yesterday.  We live in a rural area, which is heavily agricultural so mostly everyone is in cowboy attire.  At my age, i wear a very loosely Hawaiian top and bralette to minimize.

I was surprised to see several guys with significant chest and clearly had bra lines on their back.  These guys weremid 40's and with their families.  Even in rural areas, I think nobody really noticed.  This doesn't mean I will try this at 75.

I am 75. Sounds like something I would do. And I live in an agricultural area. Getting ready to move to rural Tennessee. We’ll see how that plays in Peoria.

I really don’t like wearing bras all that much. But they do what they are designed to do and I like that comfort of containment. Love hate relationship I guess.

It's something you get used to.  After 14 years, it's the first thing I put on in the morning and the last thing I take off.  I'm so used to it that I don't give it a second thought.  Just a second piece of underwear.  I most wear pullover jog bras and braletts.  I do have several wire free bras that I will wear around the house to provide support without worrying about projection.  We have 27 stairs in our house.  Going up is no problem.  Down needs breast support.  Same with walking.  I walk 3 miles a day with an elevation gain of 317ft.  Same issue.  Since my Doctor's PA recommended it, I consider them a medical device.

Lots of wonderful comments posted here recently.Thank you to everyone.  For me the bra goes on in the morning when I  get dressed and comes off at bed time. In between I just get on with life.  With my best fitting bras they need no adjustment and I  can forget that I am wearing them. Obviously if I  focus on my chest I  can feel the underband hugging my chest and the gentle bounce of my breasts in the cups as I  walk around but for me that's comforting and reassuring and it is  what is now required for me  to navigate life.

The more I wear a bra the more I notice when I don't have one on. I feel every bounce and bump throughout the day.

I completely agree.  At a certain size, we really do need to wear a bra just like women do. What is your bra size?
