big breasts problems

I had the most embarrassing moment at work the other day - I work in a pub and sometimes go round cleaning the tables, some of which are quite high, and my large chest CONSTANTLY gets in the way of me leaning over them. The other day I like bounced off a chair and this old guy saw, and he was like "oh i saw you bump into that chair, why is that", and I was like are you really asking me that, you know exactly why.. shameful
My flatmate recently had a breast reduction, they were massively disproportionate to her body (I think they were size H, she's probably a size 8 or so and about 5'2, not really sure) and caused her loads of problems. She said she hated how they made her feel, and quite a few guys would be a bit out of line with her. She's happier with them smaller and it's kinda let her get life back in order.

OP embrace your size, i'm sure loads of girls would kill to have larger breasts.
I've had the same problems - jackets look stupid zipped up and it took ages to find a good bikini (i was jealous i couldn't fit into the cute ones from topshop). But be happy with what you have!
With me, its mainly that my boobs are too large for my frame cos i'm naturally skinny - people think they're fake lol :frown:


A picture says a thousand words girls, just saying :tongue:

I'm a 34F and I manage to get bikinis from the likes of ASDA pretty cheap. You can get bra size swimwear (although if you want better ones you'll probably have to go more expensive) but I just go for bikinis where you buy the tops and bottoms separately. I've bought size 10 bottoms and size 18 tops at the same time before, providing it's a triangle style you can just tie the strings up tighter and your boobs are all covered.
I also recently bought a swimsuit from New Look, from the Kelly Brook range. Got a 14 and it fits, if a tiny bit loose around my belly, but it's double layered and stretchy with built in bust support.
I also have problems with jackets, but I have a winter coat that goes around my breasts and the rest of the time wear them open with a belt to hold them in round my waist and a scarf to keep my chest warm.

The biggest problem I have is with sleeping. I can't sleep on my front because they end up all tender and I can't sleep on my back because they're really heavy. I've slept on my sides for years but also have problems with my hips so I can't stay on one side for long, so I toss and turn a lot in the night. When my hips are particularly bad I wake up every half hour, turn over and go back to sleep. Wish I could sleep on my back or front!

hi,

so i am 18 and have a rather large breasts (tbh one of the biggest in the sixth form) and sometimes it causes me a lot trouble. finding a bikini is beyond ridiculous, most dresses are out of the question, usually dont zip up my jacket because i cant (although it fits when i buy). its crazy.

I would love to have that problem :tongue: Instead i cant find any bikinis because im so small! but then people are unhappy no matter what their size these days so we must embrace ourselves instead! :smile:
You friends probably admire them and secretly would love to have them themselves - saying you have a lot to show off is more of a compliment in my opinion.

Getting a breast reduction is like slapping god in the face for giving u a beautiful gift.


Yeah, a beautiful gift of constant back pain, an inability to sleep and a bank-account destroying criteria for clothes (or just an inability to wear most items).



Even places like Bravismo aren't brilliant. My wife got an extra super curvy shirt from there and it just about fits, but its still a bit stretched across the front. She hates having to buy size 18 clothes just to get them round her boobs and having a tent around her waist.

Empire waists are the best, when they only come down to the nipples... They just don't make any clothes for girls with some nice chest.

OP: Get a decent top from Bravisimo and a separate pair of bottoms from primark or somewhere, sets can set you back a lot. Also, find a make/size (sizes aren't the same for different makes) and then go on ebay and get them loads cheaper!

Also, if you feel guys look at them a lot they probably look at them just as much as they look at any girls. Chances are you just notice it a lot because you are looking for it because you think they are looking at you more?

Really? I always see like thousands of A cup bikini sets (Sets!) for like £5 in Primark.

Or is A too big?

I hate having to buy a bigger size for my top half than my bottom half, buying dresses I have to get a 12 when my bottom half is an 8/10 and sometimes they make me look bigger than I am :/
Well at least they will pull the wrinkles out of your face when you're old.

i'm going on holiday with my mates in 2 months and i can already tell i will feel a bit uncomfortable at the beach. one of my mates already joked that i will have something to show off!

do you feel comfortable with what size you have?


I'm a 28J 26JJ, I can't even find bras that are my size. What size are you? Bravissimo have some good options, Ewa Michalak will custom make special sizes like mine, and brastop has some good cheap ones :biggrin:

As for feeling comfortable, yeah I like em. Bit irritating sometimes and getting bras takes the piss but that's a problem with shops not making stuff for booby ladies and not with me

I'm a 36DD (Just about fit into one) and yeah I feel you

It's pretty annoying, things that fit around my waist can never fit around my bust -_-


If you don't mind, can I suggest you measure yourself? http://voluptuouslythin.wordpress.com/measure-yourself/ A 36DD is actually quite small, and a properly fitting bra will eliminate a lot of the issues you get from having big boobs (clothes fit better, no straps falling off shoudlers, no quadboob, band rising)

Some pictures of D cups, if you don't look like that get remeasured :smile:

Okay that's weird.. I WISH i looked like that, but I don't

I look bigger :L
Yeah, I guess I'm wearing the wrong size, silly me :colondollar:

Most people are, fitters like M&S use a really **** measuring system thats meant to put everyone in 32-38A-DD to sell bras as opposed to finding a well fitting one.

Either do it yourself with the link I sent or if you're local to a Bravissimo, pop in and have a look! They're usually pretty good.

Here they have all different sizes so you can see what they really look like instead of the stupid stereotypes that surround D cups being pornstar size and below 32s being really skinny.

You should be happy you have nice big melons, not every woman is as gifted to be as sexy as that.
