We use(d) a co sleeper with both our daughters, so a bra would get in the way. And yes, I am well endowed and now have stretch marks there. I will have to figure things out when I done nursing. Pregnancy has been soooo hard on my body. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/night-time-bras---anyone-wear-them/page/2#post-1539937 Sat, 15 Aug 2015 03:21:15 +0000 Anonymous 1539937@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with Gaylene. Never slept in a bra even when nursing. Boobs are still in place with no sagging so far. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/night-time-bras---anyone-wear-them/page/2#post-1539837 Sat, 15 Aug 2015 00:02:39 +0000 Gaylene 1539837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Never even thought of wearing a bra while sleeping. And, my 65-year-old, post-nursing, 34D boobs are still more or less in the same place as they were when I was younger. </p> <p>I'm also dubious about the "prevents sagging" advice. From what I've seen in others my age, genetics, breast volume, and overall weight gain seem to be more important in determing how much sagging a woman will experience as she grows older. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/night-time-bras---anyone-wear-them/page/2#post-1539822 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 23:35:44 +0000 Melinda SF 1539822@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do not (36H here, too). &nbsp;I feel like after a whole day in a high support bra the girls need to breathe. &nbsp;That feeling of taking off the bra at end of day is delightful!&nbsp;</p> <p>When I'm home sick, I had a few older pairs of very soft all cotton bras I used to wear. &nbsp;I threw them out when I lost all this weight though and I'm thinking about getting another one based on this thread. Maybe i should change into something like this at night when lounging. &nbsp;I have to go out in the street to walk the dog before bed, so I often don't change into night clothes until after that; maybe this is a good alternative to relax.&nbsp;</p> <p>When travelling I use a sports bra, absorbs sweat, etc. &nbsp;yes it gives the dread uniboob a bit, but it doesn't chafe as much. &nbsp;Mine have a higher cut on top so under a v neck it looks like a camisole. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/night-time-bras---anyone-wear-them/page/2#post-1539812 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 23:22:38 +0000 Glory 1539812@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>After my breast surgery last year I started wearing a bra at night for support. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/night-time-bras---anyone-wear-them/page/2#post-1539716 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 18:13:42 +0000 Elizabeth P 1539716@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like to wear a cami with a shelf bra... been doing that ever since I had DD.&nbsp; I feel better with some minor containment, I guess. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/night-time-bras---anyone-wear-them/page/2#post-1539698 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 17:50:26 +0000 CocoLion 1539698@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It never occurred to me to need something like this. &nbsp;So not only do I have to worry that I have prematurely aged skin due to not wearing sunscreen in my 20s &amp; 30s. &nbsp;But I also know that I've caused more sagging due to not wearing a nighttime bra! &nbsp;LOL.</p> <p>To be serious, I would worry that so much lycra would be bad. &nbsp;Unless it was 100% cotton. &nbsp;Have you ever travelled for 48 hours? &nbsp;Then you know what it feels like to have your chest trapped in lycra for a long period, without a chance to breathe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/night-time-bras---anyone-wear-them/page/2#post-1539694 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 17:47:15 +0000 Anonymous 1539694@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No, but now I think I should . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/night-time-bras---anyone-wear-them/page/2#post-1539683 Fri, 14 Aug 2015 17:27:35 +0000 BethT 1539683@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>H-E-double hockey sticks NO! &nbsp;My girls need to breathe!</p> <p>I get too hot when I sleep and I do not need any extra layers on me. &nbsp; &nbsp;And especially not a sports bra. &nbsp;Those are way too structured and constricting...comfy enough when running, but definitely not for sleeping.

I have one of those simple lounging bras for days when I'm not leaving the house, but I've never worn a bra overnight. My breasts don't seem worse for it, although I've never had a baby, so that may be why I've had relatively very little sagging. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/night-time-bras---anyone-wear-them/page/2#post-1537594 Tue, 11 Aug 2015 05:33:29 +0000 anne 1537594@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not by preference,&nbsp; though&nbsp;like others I did while breastfeeding. But I do quite often end up wearing one to bed because&nbsp; sometimes I just wear my lounge clothes to bed. Often I'll take the bra off, but not always! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/night-time-bras---anyone-wear-them/page/2#post-1537586 Tue, 11 Aug 2015 05:07:32 +0000 Jeanie 1537586@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes! and I am so thankful that the sleep bra has been invented. &nbsp; Because I have an ample bust I always feel more comfortable with some support at night. &nbsp;Before the sleep bra, I would just sleep in my regular sport or even underwire bras which really aren't that comfortable. &nbsp;The sleep bras are so comfortable and just lightly keep things in place without and thick bands or wires. &nbsp;You hardly know you have anything on. &nbsp; And like the others mentioned it's a little less awkward when people come to the door or with teenagers running about. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/night-time-bras---anyone-wear-them/page/2#post-1537577 Tue, 11 Aug 2015 04:51:09 +0000 dashielle (Ann) 1537577@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Never knew this was even a possibility. See what we learn together?! Personally, I don't wear one around the house at all and sometimes not even when roaming the neighborhood in Winter when I have bulky sweaters etc on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/night-time-bras---anyone-wear-them/page/2#post-1537484 Tue, 11 Aug 2015 01:31:18 +0000 elpgal 1537484@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am a pants-and-bra off type of person off the minute I step through the front door. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/night-time-bras---anyone-wear-them/page/2#post-1537476 Tue, 11 Aug 2015 00:50:13 +0000 Jjsloane 1537476@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For comfort (to keep the girls contained and not get into painful positions while sleeping) I must wear something to sleep in. Usually it's a shelf bra cami. I have a few "sleep bras" but have not found one I like a lot yet. It needs merely to lightly contain, not constrain. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/night-time-bras---anyone-wear-them/page/2#post-1537456 Tue, 11 Aug 2015 00:05:05 +0000 Beth 1537456@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do like sleeping in a camisole with a shelf bra sometimes, but otherwise no bra here. </p> <p>I did learn my lesson about not wearing a bra in loungewear when I once had to dash out of the house to rescue my goose who had managed to wander his way down the road. But that's another conversation! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/night-time-bras---anyone-wear-them#post-1537435 Mon, 10 Aug 2015 23:33:26 +0000 Carla 1537435@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nope! As others before me have posted, during pregnancy and nursing years, I did. The only time(s). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/night-time-bras---anyone-wear-them#post-1537424 Mon, 10 Aug 2015 23:08:02 +0000 Deborah 1537424@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I dont always, but go through phases were I do. &nbsp;When I do, I wear the Aah Bra:) &nbsp;I wear it for the same reasons at Maneera. &nbsp;I am large busted and sometimes experience some pain in the breasts (all checked out and it's fine) and I find the added support at night relieves that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/night-time-bras---anyone-wear-them#post-1537423 Mon, 10 Aug 2015 23:07:47 +0000 Anonymous 1537423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes! I've been wearing cotton-rich bralettes as sleep bras for the past 4 or 5 years. Ever since I lost muscle tone during menopause, I've needed a way to keep the girls in line for sleep comfort. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/night-time-bras---anyone-wear-them#post-1537421 Mon, 10 Aug 2015 23:02:29 +0000 Diana 1537421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't - my bra is off pretty much the minute I walk in the door! - but I do have a couple of bralettes like the one Marianna linked to for sleeping on airplanes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/night-time-bras---anyone-wear-them#post-1537416 Mon, 10 Aug 2015 22:55:38 +0000 marianna 1537416@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't, but I have a few of these for lounging: </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/night-time-bras---anyone-wear-them#post-1537391 Mon, 10 Aug 2015 22:22:29 +0000 abc 1537391@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for asking this, I am finding myself in situations like Beth Ann described, mostly due to inquisitive toddlers and early arrival of the housekeeper. &nbsp;Right now, I run and pop on any bra I can come across to give myself some coverage, but it would probably be a good idea for me to find something to pop on in the AM pre-shower/pre-dressing for modesty purposes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/night-time-bras---anyone-wear-them#post-1537246 Mon, 10 Aug 2015 18:38:26 +0000 Susie 1537246@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't sleep in a bra but I have what I call my weekend bra:</p> <p><a href="http://www.soma.com/store/product/seamfree-bralette/570092330?color=001&amp;catId=cat9969291&amp;fromSearch=true&amp;scPos=1-803-753" rel="nofollow"><a href="http://www.soma.com/store/product/seamfree-bralette/570092330?color=001&#038;catId=cat9969291&#038;fro" rel="nofollow">http://www.soma.com/store/prod.....1&#038;fro</a>...</a></p> <p>I wear it with lounge wear when I feel like I need some coverage.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/night-time-bras---anyone-wear-them#post-1537245 Mon, 10 Aug 2015 18:37:24 +0000 gradfashionista 1537245@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Same as Robin!
