Out With The Old, In With The New

Yesterday I was taking a little gander at the Victoria's Secret website.  I am in desperate need of a strapless bra for the summer.  I have been using those little chicken cutlets from Wal-Mart that stick on your boobs, but have run into a few problems with them.  First and foremost, they were purchased when my boobs were their normal size.  That was prior to having a baby and breastfeeding.  So consequently, they no longer cover as much surface area as they previously have.  And, can we say absolutely NO SUPPORT?  Secondly, I discovered it's not exactly ideal to wear them while continuing to breastfeed.  It's too much work to pull them off and re-stick them.  Then if there's any milk leakage, that can cause some problems and irritation.  Thirdly, they are pretty old, so the adhesive is starting to come off.  Combine that with breastfeeding and Elise has adhesive stuck on her face and they are sliding off my boobies.  So, I gave up on those and tossed them in the trash. 

I was perusing the VS site looking at the bras, found a strapless one that looks promising (actually it's convertible so that would be even better), but then noticed... what?!  They sell nursing bras too?!  OMG!  Who would have thought I'd be so excited to learn that?  I currently have NO nursing bras, so I just make the best of what I have to work with.  Which happens to be ONE, that's right ya'll UNO bra that is the correct size that Lori bought me for Christmas.  I tell Jason "Oh my gawd! Look!  They have nursing bras at VS!"  His response: "well, duh, VS has everything.  Does it have a picture of what it looks like un-snapped?"  Insert eye roll here.  He really is no help at all.  I doubt I'll be purchasing one of the nursing bras, but oh how the times have changed.  Instead of looking at all the cute PJ's and panties, I almost peed my pants over a nursing bra. 

It was Jason that asked me the other day if I had a strapless bra to wear with one my tank tops.  I told him no, considering the fact I only have one bra that fits me AT ALL.  I have $20 off at VS, so my hubby was generous enough to agree to letting me buy myself a strapless one.  If I can get the convertible one, it will be like having TWO bras to wear.  Holy cow!  Two bras, that are the right size!  That means that I could actually have one to wear while the other one is being washed!
