    Hi Sarah, I’m 6 wks on Tuesday and can’t wait to have my check with the nurse and get the ok to wear normal bras again lol! Sports bras and macoms for 6 wks is very tiring isn’t it? Hope you’re doing ok and healing well. Did you find being measured ok? Did you get underwired or non-wired to start with? x

    You can usually wear under wired at 6 weeks however after my check at 6 weeks I was still sore and my breasts very hard so they didn’t sit well in bras or look nice in them .
    I left it another few weeks and at 9 weeks they had softened and felt and looked better in a bra X
