Well I just got my new 'Shock Absorber' sports bra in the mail. I was so excited I tried it on right away and bounced around, much to the amusement of hubby and baby. I was amazed at how well it fit, and how comfortable it was. It has adjustable straps and band. It also comes in a huge range of sizes.

I went to a local specialty bra shop and tried a few of these on, and got fitted for it. Then ordered it online for about half the price. I'm so glad I went to get fitted though I would have ordered a 38 H, but was fitted as 36 HH. I ordered the 36 H and it fits great, not to tight around the band at all. When I got closer to my goal I might have to get a 34 band whoohooo.

I worked out in it today and just couldn't believe how well they stayed in. My old one popped out on the sides and the top and still moved around a lot with 2 bra's on. Well these puppies were just packed in there, but no too tight, no bulges at all it was great. I was so excited ahaha it's the first workout I've done and been able to forget about them and just do my thing.

I ordered it from the UK. At the local store they wanted $89 + tax =$100.57

From Bravissimo it was $47.75 + shipping of $12 but I ordered another bra too.

    Oh, Wow!! I had to click and see what was in this thread...

    I hate sports bras. No matter what kind I try on, it looks like I have a uni-boob! One big wide boob. Why does a sports bra have to squish them together like that? I gotta have my underwire, to lift and separate the "twins" so they don't go Siamese! LOL!!
