question for the big blessed chested ladies.

bump

Enell is usually very good for the D-DDD range - I vary from and H to an L ( tangent: depending on the bra, though, and since Goddess was bought out by fantasie some years back they fit differently - my old goddess size g/H my new size K/L and the tag says something like UK cup G US cup K, - no, my US size was the G so I think they flipped the tags)

anyhoo doesn't matter the tag size, just the fit

so for Enell, which I wear, the cup isn't really big enough - I do get that 4 boob effect, but it holds the girls down (except for jumping jacks) and is the best I found in my size lately (oh how manufacturers love to discontinue bras that I like)
I also have Elomi but the straps loosen up too much on me
oh and Freya is good as well but only up to a size 38 (which may work for you, a lot of people forget to tight their band size as they get thinner)
I used to also have luck with Shockabsorber brand and a lot of my friends recommend them (they go to a small HH cup)
also moving comfort (some of theirs go to a DD or E or DDD
in addition to herroom

I also love teamestrogen a female focused sports gear site, main focus is cycling but they have other options too and in plus size

i cant even fit into a VS Bra, first they dont carry my size. second there is no support when i did. I have to go to fredricks or lane bryants, and thats for a regular bra. My next step is to go to sears or dillards. AND thank you soooooo much for the info on the sports bra. Im be glad to get rid of the hurt . o and bounce.

Mandag, I see that you are in Fort Worth so I googled for a specialty bra shop neary you, have you tried:

I'm a 38-40 DD. I hate my life all day long because of what I do but its the only method that works for me. I wear a regular bra to help keep them separated (not all squished together like most sports bras would leave them since every bra company in the world- or at least any I've been exposed to- skimps out on bigger bras' qualities and such) and put a sports bra over that to help keep them held in better for running and such. At first its really tight and is uncomfortable but it has helped. :l Rather have one good bra but they've been scarce. Since then though I've noticed they've gotten a little shaplier and perkier, might just be the exercise itself though.

I did have that problem being a FF, and I struggled for years trying to find a sports bra that actually worked.

I came across one by accident at my local debenhams and it's brilliant. Really makes a difference, I can jump around and althought there is a little movement, no more pain, feel fully supported :0)

I think the trick really is to find a decent fitting and decently made sports bra. I've found the ones with the cross backs don't offer me any support, it has to be the full enchillada, big wide straps, three catches on the back, thick band under your breasts.

not just cotton - lots of other good stuff too!!

cotton to absorb sweat,

FYI, cotton is generally not the best bra material. Better to wick sweat than absorb it. Absorbing it can contribute to risk of nasty things like yeast infection under the boobs and bad chafing. Cotton also tends to stretch when it's wet and support less. And a wet bra just plain feels icky.

I think the regular bra and sports bra should work. I'm a 42 DD and it does get in the way. My biggest issue is my butt. I can barely run becuase my booty is jumping and moving all over the place. Drives me nuts.
