Painful nipples since new bras... how to fix? » All bra adventures

Painful nipples since new bras... how to fix?

Hey everyone,
The last week or so I've had super sensitive nipples - especially when brushing against them, they hurt a lot.
I just realized, it may be because of my new bras! It has started since I got them... it's evening now, so starting tomorrow I'm going back to my old bras for at least a week.

But I want to wear my new bras, they give much more support...
They are Curvy Kates; Angel/Romance/Lottie and Fantasie Kara. Does anyone have any idea what it is that might irritate so much (the fabric, probably? in combination with nipples pressed against it due to too-small-cup?) and especially how to deal with it??
Thanks soo much!

  • Have you washed your bras before wearing them? Does your boobs stay still in the cups? If they bounce a lot, which they definitly shouldn't you'll most likely to get the brushing...

  • My first thought would be that you are allergic to something used to wash the bra. Or treat the fabric during manufacturing. Did you wash them before wearing? If not, you could try washing in a free & clear detergent.
