WTF, Underwear?

Posted by Rachel on January 14, 2008

In a departure from more serious topics… Why is my bra making this creaking noise? It’s like a haunted house movie every time I move my arms.

    I’ve had that happen too. I think the elastic starts to wear out and squeak or something. Very distracting. Thanks a lot, underwear, for distracting us from important matters of state and stuff!

    Argh when I got pregnant my boobs inflated to Double DDs (and they don’t even have milk in them yet – god help me!)! So I was forced to buy these granny bras and boy did they like to squak at first.
    Very traumatizing.
    Thankful things have calmed down a bit now that they are broken in.
    Okay back to work.

    I’m glad I’m not the only one! :)

    I think it’s something to do with plastic or metal fatigue in the underwire. It is in an underwire bra, right?

    Vol Abroad, it is an underwire, but it’s brand new! Argh.
