I’m a little over 10 weeks pregnant and I’m starting to get uncomfortable with my regular pants. I feel like it’s too soon to wear maternity clothes. I’m not exactly a skinny woman either. I don’t have any of my maternity clothes left over from my daughter, so I’m guessing I should start shopping, but is it normal to need to wear maternity clothes this soon?

have you ever noticed that toys for girls are either centered around motherhood, getting married, shopping, or cooking? WTF? Why do boys get all the cool stuff and we get the ones centered around taking care of the household. And you wonder why women are so obsessed with getting married and having kids prior to ever falling in love.

I haven’t gained any weight, but things have definitely shifted. Even my comfy pants don’t feel comfy anymore. I’m not quite 7 weeks! I don’t want to waste money on maternity pants now if I’m just going to need bigger ones later…but seriously, when do you need to start shopping for different pants?

What do I do, I’m scared to go shopping in Lane Bryant after the shootings that took place?
The shooting took place last year in a different state from me. Since the shooting I haven’t been to Lane Bryant stores because I’m scared to shop there. I want to go shopping there because I have a few gift cards there, but I’m scared to go there. Advice?

I have been doing research, and have found popular places like JC Penney for plus size girls, but there don’t seem to be a lot of options for online shopping. I sell plus size clothes for tween girls ages 7 to 12 online at www.itchickclothes.com, and I am wondering if women will buy online for their hard to fit daughters or nieces etc. I want advice on how to reach out to our target market. Ideas?

I’m in 8th grade, just to start out. One of my friends wears a DD bra. Whenever she wears t-shirts, the tops of the cups show though them, even if the t-shirts aren’t tight. My friend is a bigger girl (I am too, so I’m not being mean). We’d wear about the same size, which is an XL t-shirt. Consistantly, my friend wears medium and large shirts, and they’re too tight on her. She also wears really low cut shirts that expose what me and the rest of my friends think is too much. We have guy friends who don’t like it either. The think it just makes her look slutty.

We all think my friend is in size denial.

As the only bigger girl in the group, I’ve offered many times to go shopping with her and help her pick out things that would fit her well and look nice (but I’ve never actually implied that she’s in denial about what size bra/shirt she needs), or even help her shop online.

Also, she wears skinny jeans. She’s bigger in the legs too, and the honestly are too tight. I know they make skinny jeans for plus size girls, I’ve seen them before, and they actually fit when you try them on (even though I don’t own any). Basically the skinny jeans she’s wearing now give her (I don’t know how to reword this) a cameltoe and show the cellulite in her legs.

A lot of people from school make fun of her behind her back for dressing this way. She’s getting worse about it too.

Basically, this has been going on since the start of 8th grade, and it’s just uncomfortable. I want to know how I can approach her about getting something that actually fits. How can I politely talk to her about this?

So I am 14. 5’2", a small body build and 32DDD. I always have painful shoulder and back problems. I break down because my boobs ruin my self esteem. NO one and I mean NO one carry’s and 32DDD size no matter were I look. I can not wear any of the clothing I like because it makes my boobs look even bigger. I have a shorter torso. I work out by myself but refuse to do P.E. most of the time because my boobs bounce to much even with two sports bras on.
It has come to the point were I want a breast reduction. I have talked to my dad about it and he says he will look into it with me because just recently he took me shopping and I tried on many different shirts but none of them fit around my boobs. I am not plus sized because I am rather slender so when I put on the xl they fit around my boobs but it looked horrible around my stomach. One again I ended up crying in the changing rooms because I couldn’t buy anything for my first day of school.
Basically does anyone have some very helpful information websites about this? Anyone else have the same problems? How about any advice?

I’m 5’6", 145lbs an avid runner and fitness enthusiast. I’m going gown shopping in September and can’t get a good handle on what type of gown would look good on my figure. All the guides discuss problem areas, body shapes, full this petite that, none of which I am. My body, I’m small chested, a B cup on a good day. Wear size 4-6 in normal dresses. Average waist and hips, muscular, long torso, I look normal from the front but been told I "disappear" turning profile. My biggest fear is looking like a linebacker or incredible hulking out of dresses that confine my broad shoulders. It’s an outdoor ceremony, which calls for a more informal style. I’m not into poofy gowns with giant trains. I’m classic and professional in my daily style. Married ladies or people who know dresses, please help! I like having ideas before making decisions.

I am literally flat-chested. I don’t know that I even have a bra size that is carried in stores. I’m 18 and I’m not going to grow anymore, and my mom’s bra size is maybe a B, I don’t even know what size exactly so I don’t have any chance. I know that it would be good if I got a padded bra, but I can’t find any :( I feel so abnormal when I see 13 year olds at victorias secret and they’re buying bras and they can’t even fit me. i really don’t want to buy a training bra because it just isn’t the same, plus I just wanna look like a normal 18-year old. and PLEASE DONT tell me not to bother with a bra. i need one! i literally look younger than those 13 year olds and i can’t even find a damn bra with padding! and a normal one! not one with barbie on it or something :(

i would prefer to buy from victorias secret because im only allowed to use my credit card for important things, and not online shopping, and the bras there are so pretty!

thank you!
im short! im 5ft tall :( so even if i got a boob job itd look totally weird… i just HAVE TO find a good bra!!!
yeahh i’m scared to go get fitted because i dont think im even a 32a and that’s the lowest they carry!! im nervous the saleslady will just say ‘you dont need a bra honey!’ out loud in front of everyone or something lol
