I've read some stinko reviews on both the Ahh and Genie bras. I hate that I can't go anywhere to try them on, and even if I did there would be no guarantee it would feel the same after six hours as it felt in the dressing room for five minutes.

If I find one I like (relatively speaking), either they stop making that style, or something about me changes.

I just ordered FOUR different ones online, hoping that one of them will work out and I'll only have to send one back. I think my happiest moment of the day is when I put my jammies on.

Dej, it sounds like you need to hire a good seamstress to combine a good ting of one and good thing of another until you get what you want

aaahhh, screeeeew it! I took it off and have been going braless, which means breastless around town, around the house and so forth. LET UM STARE! in church I slip on the genie bra, which is the most comfortable for me out of all of them, and can handle it for 2 to 4 hours. After that I would not be able to do it.

DH said WHO CARES! if they dont know you had breast cancer by now, they are idiots! not like they will see nipplage by staring, or watch them bounce. People can be such dopes. He said TAKE IT OFF! I want you comfortable more than I want you to be up to someone elses standards. They dont have to go home, and lay down for 4 hours after wearing one of those things. What a guy!

we are living in an age where a grown woman strives to look like a flat chested teenager anyway. Mostly none of these woman have breasts in their bra because they have trimmed down to a double zero and dont have enough body fat to make one. So, if twiggy can do it on purpose, I can do it for medical reasons.

Good for you. A decent bra nowadays is so very hard to find. I'm not big so I go without a bra at times. It's much more comfortable. I grew up just before the Twiggy era so I was labeled too thin, toothpick and all the rest.

I just thought of something you could do. Some singlets have a built in crop top bra. If you cut the back part off the inbuilt crop top and stitched the sides down to the front of the top it would make a pocket. You could insert your prosthetic breasts into that pocket and put a strip of Velcro underneath to secure them in.

Then you could throw the singlet on in one step, have your breasts on and not have a tight band squeezing you like a bra. Knowing that your breasts are securely inside the singlet. If you want it more bra like, you could cut the singlet up shorter.

I hope this helps
