I put girls only because i thought it would be weird for a guy to be telling me about my boobs, alright?
-don't worry about it!

Well kiddo.......
I swear to you - I used to ALWAYS sleep in my bras as a teenager and NOWADAYS I can't fathom keeping one on for more than 8 hours. I dunno how or why I EVER was able to do that when I was younger.
So, you worried they won't grow???
I went from sunkin chest to a 36 D - in ninth grade.
AND NOW - I am wearing a 38 F...........
I PROMISE you - If anything - I wonder if my bra made mine bigger........ I am ALL RACK now - naturally.
I still wouldn't advise sleeping in a bra though.
Here's the deal. Your breast tissue is sensative and when you wear a bra, you are cutting of some circulation to your body.
While I don't think this will stunt your growth, I have read articles on how breast cancers have been associated with suspicion of women wearing tight bras over years and years - and have also read that it is MUCH healthier to NOT cut off circulation of those tissues. They need OXYGEN and it is NOT health to do that.
Think about it this way.
What would happen if you wore tight shoes all the time.
Your feet would grow but it is not healthy for you.
You will have PLENTY of years to wear a bra everywhere you go. I suggest you enjoy not wearing one while you can.
If you can't get used to it cold turkey - then buy some wife beater type undershirts....... At least you will still feel the security of something clinging to ya girl.
Good Luck.

I wouldn't sleep in a bra if I were you. Best to let your skin breathe at night. Moisture can lead to rashes or itching.
Also, no, wearing a sports bra wont effect your size. Your genes are going to take care of that. The down side is that a sports bra will make you look only flatter....

Sports bras don't stop growth it's called genetics. If you're suppose to grow to a certain size i don't think wearing a bra to bed will stop it.

It's fine to sleep with a bra. That won't affect growth. Just make it a soft one, so it's comfortable. No wires.
