girls needed for bra advice.?

Question

My mom always told me not to wear a bra while you sleep as it is bad for yiou. But when i took it off before i went to bed at my friends house she was all what are you doing? you are gonna sag that way!
I was kinda freaked out by this so i researched online 4 help and came across this article that says that people who wear a bra 12 hours a day have a 20% ;lesser chance of having breast cncer then women that wear a bra 24 hours a day.. Is this true- and am i meant to wear a bra when im sleeping or not?

Answer 1

FWIW, I have never known a woman that wears a bra to bed. I don't think it'll make your breasts "sag" anymore than if you wore one 24/7 (very uncomfortable).

Answer 2

Hey gurl...I am right there with ya. Mom says not to wear the bra to bed. And I don't. But, when at friends' house I do because I may be a little bit uncomfortable in front of my friends and their parents.
That is what I do.
I mean, a few days with the bra on all day isn't gonna hurt ya too bad, no will it?

Answer 3

WOW i didn't know that. I wear mine 24/7. When i 1st started wearing a bra i hated it so i'd put it on to go to school and then take it off as soon as i got home. But my aunt told me that if i didn't wear it my breast would look like hers and um....her weren't pretty they were saggy and well u get the point so since then i've worn mine all the time. Don't know how relevant this is but my bf doesn't like bras lol she says they just get in the way but anyways. I say what ever feels most comfortable for u. As long as ur breast are growing they won't sag, it's when they stop growing u have to work to defy gravity.

There was a well publicized study a few years ago that said that if you wear a bra you will get breast cancer, and it got a lot of press - naturally. But other doctors looked into the research and noticed that the real problem was not wearing the bra, but wearing the wrong size bra. If you wear a propperly sized bra - you should be fine, and if you want to stay perky - you MUST sleep in a good bra.

This is what almost all of the women in my family do, (we are all pretty busty) and my aunts have stayed remarkably perky into their 50’s and none of us has cancer or even a lump.

FIRST – wear a properly fitting, well sized, supportive bra. This should be something that holds the girls up, and keeps them supported. Your everyday bras should be under wire, full coverage, and comfy. If your bras lack any of those characteristics – they are the wrong size / wrong bra for you. If your under wires poke you, you are wearing the wrong size. Go and have a bra fitting done for you. If you go to a Leggs Hanes Bali store the sales girls (and guys) are trained to fit your bra properly. I like Bali bras – but sometimes they are a bit lack luster in the fashion department, so I also wear a lot of VS Second Skin Satin bras – they fit me well, provide sufficient support for me (though more would be fine) and come in a huge variety of colors. I HATE Playtex bras. They are ugly, and they SMELL. Avoid them at all costs.

Never wear a soft cup bra for regular daily wear. There is simply not enough support to risk it. Besides, with a properly fit under wire bra, a good supportive under wire is at least as comfy as any soft cup.

Special occasions are special occasions, and require special bras – avoid going braless however – unless that is the occasion.

Second – When doing ANY type of exercise – including things like gardening – or anything else that may cause extra bouncing, wear a good, strong sports bra, something that is capable of holding the girls in and controlling all of the bounce. One of my aunts has been known to wear two sports bras on occasion. An even better solution is to not do any sort of bounce inducing exercise and confine your work-out to the pool. The water prevents you from doing any damage to your breasts (or joints) and provides excellent all over toning and cardio work out all in one.

Third – and this is the real secret – and it is the critical step. Wear a bra to bed. Sleep in a bra every night. This does not need to be a firm support under wire contraption, and it does not need to be uncomfortable at all. In fact – it should be comfortable. No one does a lot of bouncing when they sleep, so all this bra is doing is keeping the girls in place – it does not need to be firm support. These bras are a bit harder to find, but they are worth the effort, and worth what you have to pay. Try to find “leisure” bras, or “sleeping” bras. If you google them you will find something. They are a MUST if you want to remain perky for as long as possible – and well worth any trouble you may have to go through to find them.

Answer 5

I never wear a bra to bed. If you friend freaks out and is like OMG WHAT ARE YOU DOING!??! Laugh at her and say "Would you want to wear something -that- uncomfortable to bed??" It worked when I was just starting to wear a bra. Health problems or not, wearing a bra to bed is just so uncomfortable!!

Answer 6

Answer 7

I have just started to wear a bra. It's hard enough wearing it all the time. i don't think i could handle wearing it to bed. But i am also small there.

Answer 8

I heard it breaks down the breast tissue if you wear your bra over night...but i still have the habit of falling asleep with it on--who really knows. im sure there arent women doing boob/bra tests all night.

Answer 9

That Is True. They Need A Chance To Breath.

Answer 10

I MEAN IT ALL DEPENDS ON HOW YOUR MOTHER BROUGHT U UP, IF SHE SAYS DON'T WEAR A BRA TO BED THEN DON'T IT WON'T AFFECT YO THOUGH. BUT WHEN UYOU'RE SLEEPING OVER OTHERS HOUSE YOU SHOULD PROBABLY WEAR ONE, JUST SO YOU WON'T FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE.
