    My plan (before fate stepped in and presented me with a *lovely* set of beige postsurgical numbers) was to lash out on a couple of new cheap cottony softcups (target) and then wait 6 months or so and then go and get fitted properly. The cottony softcups seem to accommodate changes in fullness a bit better than the wired ones.

    Mine took 12 months to resettle but a lady at playgroup had to get refitted after 2 years. I went to the Bras and Things sale and got some gorgeous bras for cheap but I have to go get refitted now...

    I was told to wait about 4wks after after full weaning by an independant Lingerie shop.
    I like Marydeans idea for you as going by your ticker you are also on a weight loss journey and this could also effect your cup and back size.

    Ginger, I've got some of the target brand ones. They have minimal seams, and a nice silky binding, the strap around the bottom is wide (therefore fairly supportive for a non-wired one) and they come in about 4 different (fairly boring) colours, pink, grey, black, white. I'm sure you just need to poke around in Target until you find some likely types them try them on.

    ETA - they are nearly an identical design to the free ones that Berlei sent me last year, so I wouldn't be surprised if they are a Berlei bra rebadged for Target.
