Absorber ultimate run sports bra
sports bra has been created especially for running, with an enhanced support system to target excessive breast movement and featuring seam-free and concealed elastic to reduce rubbing and chafing. This Shock Absorber running bra has been proven to reduce breast bounce by up to 78%. I had this for all my 3ops and the strongest I’ve come for me macs wear to week for me Asda you have to wear two at the same tryed in loads but always went bk to my run sports bra but to fair I would try and find wots best for I self xx
thanks for that code Sophie just ordered mine x
Remember to get a back size bigger 🙂 I’m usually a 32, was advised to get a 34, which I did, to accommodate for the swelling and even then I couldn’t get into my bra until one week PO as they were so swollen xx
Thanks everybody, I’m normally a 32 so think I should get 34 too? I have looked at asda & marks & Spencer’s but just want the best one for support & keep them of my incisions so they can heal. Il get a few different ones to try
The shock keeps them up and off if you get a chance to go out n try few out debhams do the shock ab and try M&S and work out the strongest 1st time round I had full uplift and implants so that was so important for me to have the strongest to keep them inplace when u out walking driving sleeping dose wot it says on the tin it’s dose take the schock off your bust area when you due your op ? Xx
Do you but the shock abs one in normal back size? I’m having my op 28th Feb xx
I have a shock absorber and love it but have also used a tesco medium impact sports bra with a primark stretchy one over the top for a bit of extra support (now that I can raise my arms to put it on). go for a size up to acclimate swelling (so I bought 34 as I’m usually a 32) I use a long pillow instead of a V pillow called a ‘widgey’ you can get cheaper versions off amazon.

How to measure yourself
When measuring, remember to wear a bra, keep the tape measure straight and snug and make sure it’s warm!
A – CUP MEASUREMENT – Measure around your body at the fullest part of the bust. Don’t have the tape measure too tight that it flattens your bust.
B- ACTUAL AROUND BODY MEASUREMENT – Measure around your body underneath your bust. Pull the tape measure quite tight.
