Breast Reduction
After my second child I came to the decision to have a breast reduction. I was sick and tired of my boobs always being in the way. In high school I would cover them up so know one would know I had them. In my 20's I had come to accept them. In my 30's I wanted to get rid of them. I was so excited to go in as a "D" come out as a "B". So I went for it. No more babies. A few days later things were not healing up that well. Went into see the doctor and explained to him that I was not healing. He asked me..."could you be pregnant?" I laughed. Not at him but just the thought. A few minutes later he arrived with the news..." Congratulations your pregnant. Number 3 arrived 8 months later. I wouldnt change a thing now except for my boobs. Yikes! Anyway my so called new boobs were Big Boobs and I'm right back where I started. Today I'm off to the beach with the kids and nothing fits. Size 6 on the bottom size large on the top. Nothing ever fits. Does anyone know of any type of bathing suit that really works for this?















I feel your pain girl...try my fav company for swimsuits:"Athleta" Gorgeous and athletic clothing,yoga wear,suits that are beautifully made!Stylish,sexy suits with great support to a DD.http://athleta.gap.com/?tid=atgobue8t&kwid=1&ap=7&creative=3520088004&adid=nguyrgn&mkwid=695Mn4GZ
mjsred this is the second post you talk about Athleta, I think now I'm really going to order that swimsuit I've had my eyes on for a while :) Have you ordered any of their clothes too? They have really cute dresses. I don't need breast reduction but I do feel your pain when it comes to buy swim suits, I'm sm in the bottom and C cup on top, I always need a bigger size for the top. SO yes seperates works best for me. Sets not so much. I would be happy with minus A cup but I'm happy with what I have. But I still would love to wear tanks I not worry about my boobs hanging out. AHA... ;-) Victoria Secret's and JCrew have work for me in the past because you can order different size top and bottom. When I was pregnant with my son I needed a D cup and sm bottom so I ordered from VS. Now Atleta is next on list :)
I totally understand you. My college weight gain (I probably was underweight at 120 (medium build, 5-6 height) when I started and I have a couple extra pounds now at 155, but most of my weight is in my breasts!! The miracle bra with underwire swim pieces from Victoria's secret are nice...just have to take out the dumb padding!

Thanks mjsred, looked at the site and a lot of nice patterns, is there any ones that you have found have more support in the upper half? Wanted to ask your opinion before ordering. Also I know some companies have bra type bikini tops. I would like one that isn't skimpy and covers more. Artcandy

Victoria's Secret has tops with cup sizes that you can buy separate from bottoms. They have good discounts often too. I'm a DD so I feel your pain, it's rough for us!
Wow, I just recently had twins and all I want to do is get a boob job =( ... total opposite but you know what they say, you want what you can't have.. My boobs have gotten smaller than what they used to be. =(Oh welps.
