Do you have a favorite bra that you like to wear around the house? I have two Soma Enbliss bralettes that are comfy but not that flattering. I wear a 36 DD and it just smooshes then together and makes a uniboob. I was on a zoom call the other day and was horrified by how I looked.
Just wondering if there is anything that would look better and be more supportive but still be comfy?

I haven't found a DD wireless / comfy bra that supports worth a damn, especially on a video call unless I am wearing black. I'll be watching this thread.

I’ll be watching this thread too. I’d love a comfy wireless bra that works for DD’s.

Is there such a thing as a comfy bra in DD? I haven't found one. I have to admit quarantine means braless for me! But I also have not been on zoom...

I've been wearing a sports bra under my fleece top. It hasn't warmed up enough to wear anything lighter. Once it does I don't know what I'll do.

Ugh. I also never wear a bra at home. Except now for Zoom meetings. We have one every day at 9:30 and I rush upstairs a few minutes before to put on my bra and a tiny bit of makeup so I don't scare anyone!

I ordered this True and Co bra from Target. The 2X fits me very well (I'm a 40 G). It's great for around the house and would look much better than a uniboob on your Zoom meetings.  I don't know that I'd wear it out of the house except for maybe a quick trip to the drugstore. The support is OK but not fantastic. It is very comfortable, though, and looks nice under my t-shirts. |

I realized my rib cage was hurting and put on some support today for the girls... I felt much better. Why oh why... what is the point for the girls after producing milk? I asked my DH today what the point was for a jock strap and if he ever wore one? He had no info on that. Look it up on google.

Bra? Who's wearing a bra??  I'm not sure I've had one on at all except every two weeks when I go food shopping. haha. I don't even wear one for my dog walk because it's been cold enough for a coat, so no one can see anything. And I've been on Zoom even! lol. But I point the camera at my head, if I even turn the camera on. lol |

Does it keep things separated? I actually bought this in a L and Xl but thought they fit like the Soma ones I had so I returned them. Was worried that they would start sagging and making the uniboob after awhile. But maybe these are better? If only I could remember which fit better... |

I like Hanes for those I need a bra but don't want to wear the good supportive ones. I can't remember the style name but they weren't sports bras.

I believe they also make one that is more like a bralette that probably doesn't. |

Comfy, no.
Around home I go braless. If I know someone is coming over, I put my bra on.
If someone were to stop by unexpectedly, I would put my around-the-house cardigan on as I was walking over to the door.
If someone doesn't call before stopping by, then any and all bouncing and lack of containment, isn't my fault. Maybe, no makeup-no bra-pajamas on-hair not combed...will teach them to call first.
I hate when people stop by unexpectedly.

I can’t stand not wearing some kind of bra. It makes me feel schlumpy and I feel less productive. Probably because I feel like I should be going to bed.
For most zoom calls I would probably have a real bra on. But seeing myself in the screen made me realize how dumpy I looked and don’t want to feel that way all of the time, especially If I would go outside or something.

Watching this, as well. I am hoping that at some point I can go in and get a breast reduction (I am a 36 DD+). I can barely take the discomfort anymore. I have very dense breast tissue, and I swear it is like having an elephant sitting on my rib cage by the end of the day. Bleh!!!
I also don’t like to go braless unless it is sleep time. When I can’t take it anymore, I put in a wireless sports bra.

This is the one I was going to suggest. I am a 42D and got the 2X. I feel supported, but think that maybe I actually need a smaller size as the band area feels like it could be more snug. There is definitely separation and enough padding for nipple coverage. I got mine at Kohls. |

Do you have a Knix store. Actually I guess a store doesn’t matter these days.
Knix is the company that makes the period underwear. I’ve heard their soft bras are super comfortable. I have a few friends who have them for around the house.

What is your band size and what size did you order? I just ordered a medium based on their size charts but am second guessing that. |

Lots of great ideas here! I just order the Bali and Hanes bras from amazon and the one from target. Fingers crossed that they work! Or at least one of them. Lol

Yes these !! I was a bra fitter for a long time at a big department store. These are one of two bras that I would always recommend for comfort. The other one is a little more structured - Vanity Fair Beauty Back. |

A 34 should be a XS or S, but that only goes up to a D! |

I haven't worn my bra at all even for Zoom meetings. I position my camera so that they can't even tell or see that part of me. I have two Zoom meetings today, and I will still be comfortable in no bra!!! I HATE bras!

Have you tried the Enbliss wireless BRA, not bralette?
It’s very comfy, same material. It’s my everyday going out bra, so i’m not sure if you’re looking for something even less bra-like. But I love mine.

But I love mine. I haven’t. I have the vanishing back wireless (I usually wear the vanishing back bras) and hare it. I’ll compare the Enbliss wireless to that. Eta-do you think this is true to size? The vanishing back wireless seemed smaller than the regular vanishing back bras. Wondering if this is the same or not. |
