So I'm 11 days post and I'm having a real hard time wearing a bra. I feel suffocating and gives me back pain. Is this normal? Any suggestions?

I am 6 days post op and I hate wearing a bra due to not being able to breath all the way. I do find sports bras a little more comfortable but underwire is a no-go right now.

I'm 9 days post op, ive been wearing sport bras since I left the hospital but yesterday I wore a regular as I had my follow up appointment & class...omg, this restricted my breathing, my shoulders were hurting, I even got a fever...I am having chest pain since, hence I'm back to my sport bra...my shoulders no longer hurt

My bra was fine except it was roughing up my upper incision

I do recall just wearing camies the first couple of weeks--the bloating in the tummy area made bra-wearing difficult.

It gets better. I promise!!❤️

I couldn't deal with a bra for the first 30 days. I would put one on for the minimum time required. I would take it off the moment I got into my car.

I've been living in bralettes. Underwires aren't happening for a while.

I'm twelve days from surgery and can't wear a bra at all. I'm wearing bralettes.
