An ever expanding problem.

Before I became pregnant, I was in bra size 14B. My cup size has been getting bigger, and bigger, and bigger... I'm only 14 weeks preggers, and by the time I'm breastfeeding I will be bigger still. I just spent the whole morning looking for a bra that fitted. I'm now a size 14E. I found 1 in this entire town.

A size 16 is too loose around the chest. Seems that if I want to get a size EE, F, or FF around here I need to put on a lot of weight and get to a size 20 or more! Not happening.

I am going to get bigger and I want to make sure I can get these things before I get to the point of having to do what I did last time and go braless because of being unable to get any big enough. With my last child I was quoted over $100 for a specially made bra to fit me by the time my boy was born, which would have been the equivalent of a size 14H - except that they don't exist, and I couldn't afford it so just went without. I don't want to do that again if I can help it. I've got a bad back now and need all the support I can get for as long as I can get it.

Is there even such a thing as a size 14EE or 14F? If so, does anyone know of any good secure internet sites where I can mail order decent bras of such weird sizes for a reasonable price? Or any "mobile" companies (such as Undercoverwear) that stock such things?

Cheers, DA

Sorry to hear about your problem, but I would google it, and then I would have a look at blessed breast (online site).  Good luck.

Check out Intimo on ebay, you can pick up 14EE maternity bras for as little as $5. I got Black, White and Neutral.They were really supportive and washed up lovely. Good Luck. Winnie.

Re: An ever expanding problem.
Hi i know how you feel I went to F cup with my last pregnancy and it was very hard to find good maternity bras in bigger cup sizes. I found my saviour lol its a store called Big Girls Don't Cry in QLD the website is www.brastogo.com.au and they are fantastic you can order over the internet and they send it to you fairly quickly. They are a little on the expensive side but i wore mine from when I was about 18 weeks pregnant up untill my bub was 6mths old and they still look brand new and never wore out. Which is a problem I have frequently with my enormous breasts. They are excellent Give them a go.

Try intimo...they are a company like undercoverwear and do a really comfy maternity bra in a really big range of sizes ( I still wear mine, cos it is so comfy). You may have to book a party, but contact them anyway to see what they can do for you.

Re: An ever expanding problem.
I know a place in Perth called the Bra bar sells them that size. I will admit that i had the same prob i was a 14b and now am a 12e due to having the bubba's. I dont know any web sites as i am reluctant to buy clothes without trying them on as i can buy a size 14 jeans/pants and be a 16 or need the 16 cause sizing is different.

I do hope that you have better luck this time around.
