Wearing a training bra.?

Question

I am almost flat but my mom said I have to wear a training bra. I hate wearing it. It's embarrassing wearing one. I am 15 but have just started to develope there. I don't think it's necessary to start wearing a bra.

Answer 1

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

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.

wow you ask a lot of good questions first of all if you feel comfortable I think asking your mum these questions would be great because mums know all about these things and can help you out as for knowing when you need a bra its totally up to you! If you feel a training bra is not giving you support then go and get fitted for a bra as for you next question training bras can be for anyone that wants to use them and I know lots of flat girl that wear normal bras as well yer girls do take after females in their family as for your period it meens that your breast will grow faster as you hormones start up I hope this helped :)

Answer 3

Even if you don't need a bra, u should weare one 2 get used to it. Maybe even thoughu don't need the support and you are "practically flat", your breasts can show through your shirt just a little. That can be even more embarassing than u think wearing a bra is.

Answer 4

I hate bras and avoid them whenever I can. If you have only just started developing then you shouldn't need to wear a bra. As you get bigger you may find it more comfortable to do so, and it will be necessary if you wear tops that are at all see through.

Make sure your mum gets you properly fitted. Improperly fitted bras could mentally scar you for life.

You could also try bikini tops instead. They tend (I think) to be more comfy for smaller boobs

Answer 5

You might not feel the same way when you're older and have saggy boobs. Better be safe than sorry I say. We all go through it, and if you don't feel comfortable with training bras, then try something different, like sports bras or the camis with support.

Answer 6

at 15 you should definately be wearing it if you dress out for gym class it seems like it would be more embarrassing not to be wearing a bra

Answer 7

you have two choices...
1. level with her. tell her how you feel and how uncomfortable you are. tell her that to you feel it isn't reasonable considdering your size.
2. placate her. put on the bra before you go out, then as soon as you're out of her sight (and range of sight) take it off. put it back on on the way home. and from there, only wear it around her.

don't worry, three more years, and this won't be an issue
