Bras and tank tops for post-mastectomy / reconstruction

Unlike some other people I've talked to, my plastic surgeon asked me NOT to wear a bra as I was recovering from reconstruction. I had expanders placed prepectorally (over the muscles), and I'm about a C cup before and after. I'm not sure why some surgeons recommend bras and some do not...


While I was recovering, I wore these Nikibiki tank tops I got from Amazon. Bonus - they are made in the USA! I liked how soft they were, and seamless.

A couple of months after surgery, I felt like I could use a little extra support. And, going into warmer weather, I'd rather be wearing a lightweight bra than a tank. 





None of my previous bras were comfortable or fit right except a bralette I had from Wacoal. I decided to order more and they are great! I also tried another style. Here's what I ordered:


Halo Lace Wire Free Bra                    Lace Kiss Bralette

I love both of them! I recommend getting the matching underwear too.
