    Buy a extender strap for your bras , swelling go’s down quite quick with some girls , it also means you can buy your normal back size as you will need to sleep in a support bra for up too 6mnths I was told. You can make one using an old unwanted bra . Just cut both back parts off and sow them together. Xx

    Hi Yasmin I’m 10 days PO and live in my tescos one. They do them on line also in more varied sizes if you struggle in store. They’re only £6 and so comfy. I did have the m and s zip up one which is also lovely but I needed one size up and they were out of stock everywhere xxx
