pretty 38 aa bra


Kali-Ann Gills

Recommended Posts

Hi all,  

OK I am starting to tear my hair out! I am attempting to locate pretty 38 aa bras preferably push up to give me a bit of a cleavage. I have spent hours on the Internet and to be honest the only ones I have found are very basic and not very pretty at all.

I am really starting to get a bit fed up. Also I am rather loathe to pay a lot of money for them in case my breasts have a growth spurt and have to throw them away as there is nothing more uncomfortable than a bra that doesn't fit properly.

Does anyone know where I can buy some from please?  

Thanks in advance for any guidance.

I have the same issues. Unfortunately not many women have a 38aa. I’m a 38a, well more like a 37a but that’s not a size lol, but I can go with a 36a as well. There’s a lot more to choose from. You could try a 36a and if you need it the bra extender pieces are cheap. 

Actually my 38a bras are from the juniors dept because I couldn’t find that size in any other area. (Kohl’s) but being jrs there is no lift. Just lightly lined. 

Other than that I’ve seen online specialty shops but they’re usually just ridiculous in the price dept. idk about you but I can’t afford 100 dollar bras.

Define cute ? A simple google "cute 38 a bras" directed me to macies victoria secret and the like. The pricing is always steep it is why most women only have 4-5 of them at any given time and will wear them til they fall apart. You may want to also look at your sister sizing. " Not your sisters size" bras have what are called sister sizes for example a 38a can wear, a 36 b or a 40 aa and it will still fit the same so if you find one that is cute but not in your size look at your sister size. Victoria secret has a sister sizing chart for these purposes. Also protip, never throw away a bra that is in good condition, donate it to good will or a womens shelter.

Agreed Kirsten. And no I cannot afford crazy prices for decent bras I have made an appointment with La Senza so hopefully they will be able to advise me.

Hunni I work as a volunteer for a brain injury charity here in the UK every piece of clothing that I have either grown out of or no longer want is sold via Headway shops indeed most of my clothes come from the shop that I work in.

Cute is a relative term,  and whilst I appreciate your feedback bras of that size are surprisingly rare in the UK. However, it is a rather uncommon size and as we all know manufacturers are only going to produce items they can sell large quantities of.

Thanks for your help

I have had the same problem finding a pretty bra ( apposed to plain) in a smaller cup size is hard. 40A is a hard to find in something other than a plain old fashion style bra. I keep searching.

Maybe LeadingLady?: https://www.leadinglady.com/collections/underwire-bras/products/scalloped-lace-underwire-full-figure-bra

 

The first time you go to the site, you can put in your email to get a 25% off code. They don't have AA, but perhaps you could get a small cup insert. A lot of juniors bras are starting to come with a removable cup insert so girls have the option to do a little push-up when they are in the mood.

Hi everyone,  

Well a friend has pointed me to these they are 38aa and Marks and Spencer on Ebay at £10.99 for two. The advert says girls first bra. I might just give them to go for that money and if they don't fit I can always donate to the charity shop where I volunteer.

I hope those work for you.  The cups look a bit large for AA, but it may just be the photo.  It seems with people generally getting larger due to poor diet and all, stores only seem to carry sizes on the far end of the scale.  I haven't had to yet but I see eventually I'll need a trip to a specialty store to get the best fit.  My wife has been doing this for years for comfort and fit.

Jani to be honest they are the closest I have come to finding anything that I remotely like. Aha the cups do appear a little on the large size but as I say for that money I am prepared to at least try them.

      My view is we are "dependent" on government, because as a society, we are too lazy to stay actively involved. So, we let politicians do our bidding for us.  I think we'd be in a better place government wise if we policed the actions of our politicians.  We elected them; they work for us.  Sadly, we are allowing them to run amok.  We are where we are because we have chosen to let politicians make all decisions without us.  Remember "by the people, for the people?" That was the intent of our democracy.  Today, however, it is "by the politicians, for the politicians," the people be damned.

      "Play Ball! Batter Up!" is the closing line of the National Anthem as far as I'm concerned. It's the call of the Home Plate Umpire and signals the start of the game. I grew up in the TV and Radio broadcast of the St. Louis Cardinals. Harry Caray, Jack Buck, Tim McCarver, and Mike Shannon, were the voices on my transistor radio. KMOX 1120 AM pushing 50,000 watts of Class A clear-channel non-directional signal. It could be picked up all across MO, IL, IN to the East. KS, OK, CO to the West. IA, MN to the North, and KY, TN, AR to the South. There has always been a rivalry against the Chicago Cubs, in the National League. As for the American League, I have to pull for the Kansas City Royals. I've also been a Little League Umpire, and fan of everything the Little League stands for. Going to Williamsport, PA and seeing the Little League World Series is in my top 10 things to do on my bucket list.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Good evening everyone,   I don't think my mother ever cooked a meal that I didn't like. We also had a kitchen where mom fixed the food, dad filled your plate, and you eat it. It wasn't until our baby brother was born that we could have Pop-Tarts for snacks. Before that all snacks had to meet mom's approval, and in her opinion wouldn't prevent you from eating supper.   Well my day started off on a good note, but has become frustrating because my IT person didn't transfer my saved videos I use for teaching. Then I found out that they didn't save any of my book marks for websites I use frequently.   Best wishes, stay motivated,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      The number is relative to method of deliver, the time of the dose, and when the blood is drawn. However, I do want to keep away from DVT and other potential issues. I assume I may be getting backed down from my current dose, but my doc told me to stick with the higher dose, so? I also wonder if this has anything to do the my breast growth and mental changes that have been happening over the past few years, like I have some estrogen sensitivity so a little goes a long way or something? I don't have enough data to postulate, but who knows!   With weekly, subcutaneous, shots you expect to see big swings of serum level estradiol from shot to peak to trough. My doctor is interested in mid-week testing (for E and T levels only), which would be post-peak blood serum levels but they will be higher than trough. Most, if not all, resources I've seen online is to measure at trough (which I might do just to do it next time) along with a SHBG, LH, and other metrics.   This is from transfemscience.org for Estradiol valerate in oil, which is very spiky compared to some other estradiol combinations. It's also for intramuscular, which will have a slower uptake and is usually dosed in higher volume due to the slower absorption rate from muscles. They don't have subcutaneous numbers, which I would expect to see similar spikes but higher levels at similar doses due to the relatively higher absorption rate direct from fat.   Are you doing pills, shots, or patches? And when you do get your levels checked are you getting that done when your levels are lowest or some other time?

      Both of my parents were from the “North Shore” of Boston.  My mother Lynn and my father Swampscot.  They had an early 1900s Scots-Irish New England diet.  My sister and I were born in the 40s in Ohio well away from New England seafood and in an area where food was more German and Polish.  My first experience with liver and onions was during basic training.  They ate salt cod but never forced us to eat it same with oysters.  My dad ate oysters but my mother wouldn’t.  Anyone who ever ate an oyster can figure that one out.  I grew up eating lamb.  My wife won’t touch it. I love brazed ox tail, again no way. And the list goes on.

      My mother was German, so yes, I think it was a cultural thing.  If I'd known you when we were cleaning out my mother's place, I could have sent you her "threat jar".

      Wow that is a high number for Estradiol good grief! Testosterone levels are better than mine. I don't remember my Estradiol level but testosterone was 80. To me that is really high but it was in the two hundreds the check in before last one.

      I don't understand why this would make a difference being a "dad" I mean, as far as how they would grow.
    • Ashley0616
      I don't see why not. I have worn forms since I came out. 
    • MaeBe
      I have never worn breastforms, but I assume as long as they don't aggravate your nipples you could.

      Every week I've been excited to take my shot, so it's never been an issue. Yesterday, however, I woke up and started my usual "slow roll" and then suddenly realized I had breakfast plans that I had to rush out the door for. After, it was straight into work calls, and then I got the notification from the doctor about things being too high and all the while my mind had completely slipped that I needed take my shot.   Given that I am not asking for medical advice, but sharing my journey, I will note my results: Estradiol at 447 pg/mL and Testosterone was 23 ng/dL, up and down from 26 pg/mL and 526 ng/dL respectively before treatment. Almost flipped the bit! The doc would like my Estradiol closer to 300 pg/mL, so we'll see what Monday's tests state.   Oh, and I teased the dinner with old soccer teammates and never updated the thread! It went well. There were a couple funny moments. One guy, who I was worried about their response, greeted me with "Hey, you've lost some weight!" 😎 And a friend who lives near me picked me up on the way to dinner exclaimed, after we learned one of the invitees might show up with a date, "Wait! We could have brought women?!" To which I instantly responded, "You kind of did, bringing me!" Everyone got a good laugh out of that. 😁

      To me there isn't that much difference other the measurement, which side the zipper is on and men's pants have bigger pockets.

      I hope this is not stupid question..I have yet to start n not sure if doc will approve..but once you start growing buds n such, can you still wear forms to get to the size you were?   I'm a dad, so when I start blossoms they will be smaller for a long time n probably need surgical augmented..that's fine. I don't want to go ddd to aa to ddd..   any ideas?   thank you
