Sleeping With Your Bra On

[Virginia]

i use to sleep with it on but now, i only sleep with it on if i'm too lazy to take it off.

I always sleep in a "sleep bra" - unlined, comfy bra. I have a big bust and find it uncomfortable to sleep without one. I've been doing the preventitive sagging thing since I was a teen.

Preventitive sagging? I like the phrase.

i used to not sleep with a bra on either b/c i heard it's bad for you! as a child i remember this store STAR did on breast cancer and wearing your bra to bed. needless to say i was somewhat spooked

when i had cancer and was undergoing treatment i didn't wear a bra at all because the port was right at my chest, below the breast (so you can wear a bikini supposedly..the surgeons were thoughtful on that part at least...not at all with the pressure that comes with it!)

now i just wear it to sleep b/c it's so cold and i'm too lazy to take it off. i get used to it after awhile and sometimes i still take it off.

it really depends on my mood nowadays.

If one does research online, many studies show wearing one to bed will NOT prevent sagging.

I think it helps a little with the sag.

Slightly OT: I also heard that Jennfier Anniston had some sort of procedure to make her girls more perky. Don't think it was a lift or augmentation. What else could it be.

I would never! ick! Unless my dh requested it.

My mom always said to me, to take it off. But I always wait till the last minute. I`m big chested and I love wearing a bra. So now I know it`s good, I will wear a bra in bed!!!

I can't believe I am just seeing this thread. I have worn a bra to bed for the longest time. I must preface this with I do not have children. I don't know if that has anything to do with it, but I truly believe that wearing a bra to bed, it helps with in regards to less sagging.

No, I barely need one during daytime hours. I'm so small that nothing moves..whether I move or not. My Mom said as a small child I told her I didn't want any....and I didn't get 'em. (I was robbed!)

You have me rolling all over the floor at work.
The SAME thing must have happened to me. I was the first to wear a training bra out of all my friends and I was mad. I hated it. Be careful what you wish for I guess......mine stopped growing shortly after. LOL

Yeah, for a minute or two i thought my Mother could be wrong, so, i tried sleeping with it on couple of times, and it found it so very uncomfortable. I was scratching like a ferret.

Tooooo funny, PM!

Where did you hear this ??? It's very untrue, especially the last 2 sentences. The pectoral muscles and breast tissue are completely different and unrelated. The breast tissue is held up by ligaments NOT muscles. It's these sensitive ligaments that eventually give way and that's why breast sag. Of course if you have large breasts gravity helps with that too. Breast tissue sits on top of the pectoral muscles so bouncing around does nothing to these muscles but indeed causes those ligaments to weaken. You can make your pecs stronger. The ligaments you can do nothing about though.

But it doesn't matter how strong your chest muscles are, they will not influence your breast tissue. Total myth.

That's what I've always heard, too.

Ugh, I cannot stand to sleep with my bra on! Bleh. I am glad when I can take the stupid thing off, haha

 

[chloehandbags]

i cannot sleep overnight with a bra on. i can take naps here and there but never a whole nights sleep with it on. its too uncomfortable for me.

Same here.

I may try a sleep bra, though.

I still don't get the connection thou, if your boobs are heading South, surely it has nothing to do with you not harnessing them at night ...right ?

 

[missypoo]

I have never worn a bra to bed. My routine is I take my shower at night and put my pj's on (no bra). I just have to let the girls breathe LOL!!
