So im doing research on what to bring for upcoming surgery on 1/23 and the common thing everyone says is sports bra. Im pretty heavy on top and it's hard to find a good normal bra let alone a sports one. Please let me know if its necessary and if so where to buy one for dd and up

Before surgery I was a DD too. I didn't go out and buy a sports bra and I was fine. You're right, it's hard enough to find a DD in a regular bra.

I think you should be fine without the sports bra.

I went braless. It was a lot more comfortable

I love Enell sports bras they are by far the most supportive. But I just used a regular bra and was fine

I wore tank tops and baggy shirts for the first week and I am a C I tried bras and sport bras they all rubbed against the incision site.

I discovered front clasp sleep bras after I had my twin babies last year and they were what I brought to the hospital and have lived in ever since. I'm only five days out of surgery and they have been very comfortable. they come in a range of sizes and colors and they are soft, with no wire. I adore them. http://m.leadinglady.com/cotton-front-closure-leisure-bra.html

Before surgery 44H. Wore my usual bra to the hospital. Wore it home. Didn't wear a bra while I was in the hospital. I was fine. (Now a 40DD).

Not quite a month out....started as a 48G and now a 40G. I went braless after the surgery n the hospital so no reason for a sports bra til you get cleared for surgery. I finally bought a new bra this week.....a new bra along with a pair of jeans....lol. Down 35 pounds! And so much more to go

Haven't had surgery yet, but I'm a 44 DDD and I got my sports bras from Walmart, the xxl ones are comfy and keep the girls saddled:)

I've been wearing the hanes sports bras until I get to where I am more stable in weight

They had me strip completely and put on a gown for surgery, so this was irrelevant until afterwards.

However, I didn't feel the need for a sports bra at any point, in the hospital or otherwise. I wore my regular bras.

Save your money for when you're down 30-40 lbs. I've had to buy bras twice in 7 months

I went bra less. But I was a 40 j cup and bought my bras at Lane Bryant. Love love love it there.

I wore a bandeau bra from Walmart. It's 3 for $10, so they're practically disposable. I was a 44 DD at surgery, and they were super comfy in the hospital. I wouldn't wear them out, though...they aren't the most flattering.

I wore what was more of a sleep bra from kohls it is made like a sports bra but not tight and was much more comfortable. I'm a DD and bought an XL and it fit fine.

Sorry. I meant to say you won't need that sports bra until you're cleared for exercise!!
