    Congratulations! On both your upcoming wedding and your weight loss! :happy:

    I wish I knew what to advise...but have the opposite problem, it's always the first place to go for me! If you could lend me a little I'd be most grateful! :laugh: (Trust me, you don't know misery until the lady in John Lewis suggests...I think we also stock 32A in the training bras! :blushing: )

    I have to say, I think it would be the same as anything else though - in that you can't spot reduce from anywhere on your body, you just have to gradually go down all over. I'm sorry that isn't more helpful...it must be frustrating, especially for your wedding dress!

    I guess the quickest fix is going to be amazing underwear? Can you take your dress with you to a variety of stores and try on a few options? Something to hold them down without making you feel like a nun on your wedding day?

    Good luck...and have an amazing wedding!!

    Have you tried Bravissimo? They have an amazing range of large cup sizes and loads of 'solution' lingerie if you've got an awkward cut or something on your dress. Worth a look!

    Congratulations!!!

    and I had to re-read your post because I read it as a 10yr old boy at first and was wondering how you got pregnant at 12...

    I think if you have lost 2 stone, you must look fantastic already. Embrace them boobs, people pay thousands for em. lol

    aww thankyou all for your lovely comments :) sue especially :D i don't feel good about my appearance, i've always been on the slimmer side, 12-14 mainly...i even went down to a size 6 ontop at one point!! Then i got pg and i now am a size 14 (if i can squish the boobs in them!!) and a 16/18 on the bottom...i have a HUGE paif of HIPS!!!!!!! and loads of excess fat around my hips/tummy off carrying him - he was 9lbs 2oz and 16 days late lol!!!
    anyhoo i am very happy with losing the 2 stone in 10months, just off general healthy(ish) eating and some exercise...but now the last stone is getting me down...hoping the boobs will be understanding and say "ok we'll go down a few cup sizes for her!!" :P hehe!! Thanks for such a warm welcome guys and gals!! xxx
