Delicate question...

Similar experience, after youngest ds was born, could not find anything that would fit ANYWHERE. Finally found a store taht primarily catered to women who had had mastectomies, were nursing (smallest part of their business) or extremely large. I am pretty sure it was not part of a chain, but I think that similar boutiques could be found elsewhere. FWIW, it was located near a retirement area

That's interesting! Mine was outside Sun City in PHX near my grandma! Boy Howdy, I looked like a pre-teen next to grandma, too! Must be common, then, for the older set. G-Grama was a 56HH. I shudder to think what will happen as I age. So far, they're shrinking- I'm ok with that!

Deb,

I love Breezies from QVC! I do go up a size with them though only in # size though not in cup. Very comfortable and long lasting. I like their "signature" underwires the best. No digging and great shoulder padded straps.

And the good thing with QVC is you can try it for 30 days and send 'em back if ya hate 'em!

I buy my DDs at TjMaxx, they're cheap and sometimes you find the perfect bra for like $7... make up for the times when you buy one and it fits FUNNY...

I really don;t want to broadcast my size, but I cannot buy bras at any regular store, like Penney's, Victorias Secret or Dillards. I am going to check out some of these websites when I get home. I never buy underwire either, because they never make them "weight" proof, and I really don't want rebar in my bra.

i bought mine at justmysize they have several larger sizes and i am happy with them.. get the padded shoulders. they feel much better i just ckd and they have glamourise sp. up to 56 I size.. they are on sale this week

I am sure everyone is gonna think I am just being a pain. One time, a few years back, they were out of my fav bra for weeks on end, so I bought two Glamorise bras. They SUCKED! I will admit that every bra is different for every woman. For my shape and size, I seem to be hard on them, and those bras just fell apart within a few months.

I REALLY appreciate the suggestions and I am heading to some sites now.

Wow! I just really feel for all you ladies. I'm like not even quite a C, and honestly I have wanted to slide down a steep roof shirtless to tear them off

Girl, ain't that the truth??? I have been happily rolling along for the last 15 years with the same style and model bra. Now it is discontinued.
