Operation

Hi Louisa. i had mine on 11 dec. when i left the hospital for home i didnt wear one. it wasnt till the next day that i tried to wear one. i have ones that have no wire in the bottom as without the wire they are softer and i didnt do the clip up as tight. i also have an aahhhh bra(i think that is wat they are called) that is really comfy and also a couple of sports bras without the wire they are great support. i had one with a bit of lace on it but i found the lace was to prickly. its up to you on how comfy you are. sometimes when its really hot(39/40) i didnt wear one at all. hopefully this has helped you. take care good luck with your lumpectomy. :)
