I've had poor experiences at Victoria's Secret and Nordstrom. I had a good experience at Lane Bryant, but I don't fit their size range anymore. Does anyone know a professional fitting service that will actually give a damn about me and my hard-to-fit breasts? :<

Positive/negative experiences, ladies?

    I did a google search because I'd heard of the place on grand, but couldn't remember their name and found this article :)

    Ok just slightly off topic but have your boobs been sore since you started losing weight? Mine hurt all the time. I would be concerned if it was just one of them but it is both of them.

    If you are nursing - the ultimate place to go is the Park Nicollet Breastfeeding store that's in the Meadowbrook building attached to Methodist hospital. They will measure you, and also be able to help you find nursing bras if that's what you are looking for.

    And this is coming from someone who has nursed babies for over 2.5 years, and has gone up to size H.

    I don't know if you're addressing the OP who is currently nursing as well but I'm not nursing and i've had no pain at all. i wear very supportive bras, however, so that may make a difference?

    My current fave sports bra is the panache sport. I only have to wear 1!

    I worked at Victoria Secret through my college years. You have to be careful when you go that someone is there that really knows how to fit a bra. When i worked there I was bra specialist and I found that many of the new incoming girls were clueless. When i did training work with them after they had gone through the store training many of them couldnt even tell me what size I was and I knew. If you want to go back in or cant find anywhere else I would ask for someone who has been doing it for awhile.
