Prosthetics slipping in bras
Hi Everyone, I've haven't been on this site since January after my double mastectomy. Dealing with the healing, I also lost my husband in April and haven't felt like doing anything or seeing many...

Hi Christina,
So sorry to hear about the loss of your husband as well as the rough time you've had.
I also had a double mastectomy (Nov 2015) and decided not to have reconstruction. I too was a 14 D and was happy to go smaller. I went to a place in Melbourne which sells the Amoena brand. ( http://breastcarevictoria.com.au/ ) and was fitted with a few different bras and prosthetics - normal weight and a lighter pair. Over the 18 months since my op I now feel most comfortable wearing a camisole style top with light weight forms. However, only good for winter!
The bras I bought sometimes feel too tight, but I experimented with a bra extension and can now adjust as needed.
