Thanks @Susan R. You understand exactly what I'm going through. The straps on my bras can be hooked together but then they are too close and you can see them unless I wear a crew or v-neck. Those strap holders may be the answer. I've looked around thirdlove. I heard they're really good and I should give them a chance.

 

Glad I could help. Let us know if the straps work for you if you go that route.

 

Good Luck,

Susan R?

I had the same problem for a while and I ended up having to just wear sports bras for a while or I did have one racer back.  I looked at third love several times and it looks like they have very nice bras. I would also try soma if they have one near you. They are super comfortable and the associates were happy to help.

Some good information there.  I wear Soma all the time .  I like their softness and side coverage.  But admittedly I also have the falling straps issue.   I’ve considered Third Love and Pepper but since I’m in a growth phase I’m going to hold off.

Oh oh, am I wearing bras wrong or wearing wrong bras? Have not had any issues with straps yet, now I feel like I am in for a big disaster ?

It's a size vs. manufacturer expectations thing. If you're huge (5'11", longish torso, 42 inch band, A cup breasts) you get trouble with things like, "42 inch chest? She must have HUGE tracts of land!" or "Women are small, so these straps can easily be adjusted to any length from 6" too short to 2" too short."

 

I think you're just lucky enough to fall into what manufacturers consider "normal female range."

 

Hugs!

Bought a new bra today. I reluctantly bought one with a bigger size cup. My tape measure said I needed bigger but I’m not completely filling what I have so would I? Turns out it fits a lot better, doesn’t smush my nipples, top of the cups lay flatter and my increasingly frustrating falling strap issue has gone away. I should’ve listened to my tape measure months ago.
 

I would still like a little more but regardless..thank you boob-fairy. ?

I'm about 2 and a half months in to hormones, and I have definitely have some growth now. My first sign was last week. I don't wear a bra yet, so I was hanging around the house, and I caught my self in a mirror. I definitely looked like a typical woman not wearing a bra. At least in the chest area. 

 

So I grabbed a bra, and I filled the cups perfectly compared to 2 months ago. I'm excited, but also pissed ill probably have to buy new bras in a few months.

 

I don't know which way my breast will go through. One grandma has about a c, and the other has bigger ones now because of putting on weight, or they were always big. I haven't seen any young photos of her. My mother last time I saw her probably around a c also. No sisters, or blood aunts also. That leaves out female cousins, and even if I could use my female cousins for reference. Apparently all four of my uncles are breast men, so that skews that.

      Well I had my first appointment with my new counselor this morning. Even though she is just an Intern. She is great. She is a Navy Vet. Stationed of all places, Pearl Harbor. Lucky girl. I think I will like working with her. I have another appointment next Wens again.  Only problem is that she is in Loveland, CO. About 80 miles from me. But she is OK with doing video appointments if the need arises. Today was almost a 2 hour session. Being it was the intake appointment. We touched on a lot of points. Some she noted to discuss later.   So being it was the VA Of course, I dressed feminine. Gray camo skort, and a gray woman's Harley t. Once I got home, and changed to go into work. He asked if I wanted to show off my legs, then something about fat rolls or something. Then He asked if the zoom meeting I attended last night was a trans anonymous meeting. Nope just a meeting of friends. I wonder if he has changed again and not supporting me anymore. Did my wife get to him? Do I only have my middle son supporting me.  I hope I am wrong. It just kind of hurt when he said that.   Hugs, Kymmie

      I love the cooler weather. Pumpkin spice, college football, colors even though I’m in the city.

      How about this revised analogy?   Would this be more clear to as an introduction to these important terms?

      These cases will all end up in the Supreme Court.  We'll see what happens then.

      " Boebert said, misgendering the deputy undersecretary for personnel and readiness"   This pretty much explains things.

      I refuse to answer the census in any form. Same for the rest of my family, with the exception of Simply writing down how many of us there are. I absolutely do not trust what the government might use those results for. Especially the long form, which I see as a major invasion of privacy. Yes, refusing to answer fully is sort ofbreaking the law. But when the fine is only $100 and it is rarely prosecuted, I think it's worth it.

      I moved this post here so it could stand on its own.  Thanks for posting this, Davie.  This is great news for Montana trans youth.  I'm sure it will be appealed, but the logic of the ruling seems very solid and should stand up to scrutiny.   Carolyn Marie

      My condolences for your situation, @LoRez, it sounds super tough. I just wanted to emphasise Vidanjali’s point about the party analogy: I am just certain that your wife will respond badly to it. She has already accused you of selfishness for wanting to affirm your gender identity; my impression is that she expects seriousness and self-sacrifice from a husband. I don’t know if you suffer dysphoria, but if so it may be better to emphasise that fact. If she can understand that your gender identity is not a choice, and that you feel pain when you‘re gender identity and gender expression do not align, then she may accept that you are not just being irresponsible. I also think it is important to apologise for having deceived her in the past, but to emphasise that this was not wilful deception, and that you (I imagine) deceived yourself too. I always feel for wives in this situation: they did not sign up for this journey. That is not to say I think your wife is in the right here — I don’t — but I do think she deserves an apology.   Best of luck!

      I love the changing colors of the leaves here in the northeast along with the crisp, cool night air. It just smells different. Clean, fresh. And, I get to pull out my sweaters and wool skirts!!
