    I unknowingly wore the wrong size bras for years and it contributed to me having poor body image when I was younger :( Over the years through trial and error I figured out what my true bra size is, I need a small band size and a very large cup size so I’m a size I will never-ever find in a conventional retail store. I buy all my bras and bikinis on eBay from UK sellers. Not only do they carry my size, they have super cute styles/colors! :) I’ve never understood why the smaller sized bras can be so cute, frilly and lacy but the bigger sizes in stores look so blah and not fashionable :s Anyway, now that I’ve got my correct size I splurge on good bras and bikinis and have quite a collection. Also I must admit that strengthening my core and improving my posture have helped immensely with my comfort level and in how I carry my chest weight, which is good because short of surgery I’m gonna be stuck with these things, they didn’t even budge through 2 years of breastfeeding and considerable weight loss :# Wearing the right size sports bra (underwire, of course!) has helped me feel comfortable as a runner, along with correct form to minimize the bounce B)

    I’m fairly small, I used to wear an A cup exclusively, even when pregnant. So when I was sized into a C cup I was like wtf, what do actual C cup girls get sized into? Some of you girls are probably FFF and don’t even know it 😅

    I always though I was a D but turns out I'm a DD. I guess I'm a bit cooler now though right?

    I have never been sized. But I have always wanted to be. I think I should do it one time for sure! Especially now after the kids bras don’t seem to fit right anymore.

    I know your pain. I’m built the same as you, smaller band larger cup, and have very limited options when I go shopping, and those options aren’t always pretty. At least they do the job. Lol
