Bra suggestions?

Ok so im really short, my baby bump is from my pants line, to under my boobs. The underwire of my bra digs into my belly, makes me feel short of breath, and so uncomfortable.. only thing that helps is if i dont wear a bra:/ but i need to wear one obviously while im out, what can i do?? Im 29+1 and its getting worse!

Sports bra!!!! I wouldn't wear a bra unless I was at work ... Big mistake, I think that was one cause of my stretch marks and made them worse and they aren't as perky as they were before because of lack of support... Now I even sleep in my sports bras and my stretch marks are fading which is nice but that was a big mistake on my part

Im 6ft 2 and i have this problem lol. But i understand how it would effect u girls more. Even check a specialty bra shop. They have some nice fancy maternity bras. That make you feel sexy as well as special :) no under wires.

I agree with Cupcake2191!! Sports Bras are the way to go! It's the only thing I wear, they are so comfortable. I'm only 5'1 and even though i'm only 23weeks+4days I look like i'm about 8months pregnant. I'm all belly and anything else would be so uncomfortable. Good luck :)

Sports bras! These things are the best thing since sliced bread! To me anyways :) find a few you like in a couple sizes (in case you grow more) & they double as awesome bras to breast feed. No need to get fancy nursing bras. Hope this helps!
