Bras

hi Pineapple 

i was adviced to wear a bra at night initally, this was a very soft bra with little support, but made sleeping more comfortable whilst getting used to the weight of the implant. I was adviced by the breast care team and purchased the bras from M and S. During the day I wore a normal bra which was not the one I wre before surgery due to a slight size change and needed more support, I was also adviced not to wear underwired bras but cannot recall why.

Hope this is of some help

All the best

Thanks so much,

I will hold off wearing my usual underwired bra and stick with the suggested light support M&S that I have for day and night aswell. 
Really appreciate you sharing your experience.

I had a lumpectomy and nodes removed 10ty May.  Bought post op bras from M And S they are so comfy and vat free   the support is just right.  My nurse advised me to wear in bed if I could to help with healing. I will not be going back to wired bras as I feel so much more comfortable wearing  these   good luck x

Hi Pineapple. I had a mastectomy in 2005 and since then have used a specialist company called Nicola Jane ( they have a website). They are based in Sussex and have a great range of bras, swimming costumes, t shirts etc. The prices vary, but they have regular sales too( I am Scottish ). Their catalogue arrives in a discreet brown envelope. Worth a look! 

Thankyou Meiard! I will definitely have a look, I love a good sale too! Xx

I'm also a fan of Nicola Jane.....and their sales!! Highly recommended.
