Wire problems
What do you do if your measured band size hurts at the wires (but the band itself feels fine) and your +2 band size won't stay in place? Am I just wearing my bras wrong? The cups definitely aren't too small. Too big, if anything.
My underbust is about 27 inches, which should give me a 28 band, but the wires almost always dig in painfully. Even in my Comexim bras, and I thought they were known for having soft wires. And going up to a 30 band is nearly +4 and just isn't tight enough.
I seriously considered switching to wire-free bras today because of this. :/

Well, since you dont put any measurements or reviews or pictures on your bras, its hard to get any information. It can mean wrong shape. You could try an extender while they break in. do they dig in right under your boobs? or under your armpits? or between your boobs? You can bend them to be more comfortable sometimes. do you notice any bras being worse or better than any others?
What I'm talking about is when it hurts right under the breasts. I get the armpit pain all the time and am very familiar with what that means, but that's a totally different annoyance.
I was just kind of venting and hoping for general advice, I guess. It happens with many different bras, so I thought there might be a commonly known reason or solution that isn't specific to certain types of bras. I thought of an extender, but they make the straps further apart, which I definitely never want.
It's hard for me to find the time away from my kid to get good pictures for fit checks, and they're not even always helpful. I know I definitely can't tell anything from looking at my own pictures or looking at myself in the mirror.
