Is 36D a hard to find bra size?

| I've never been this size in my life (used to be barely a 34B), but my post-baby, exclusive pumping boobs have never been bigger. Man I really miss my small boobs and hope one day they'll go back down... Went to Kohls this weekend, because I like a good deal and refuse to pay $40+ for a bra, to get some new bras (I HATE nursing bras, so over them) and I swear, there was one Warners underwire-free bra that came in a 36D. Checked the website too. What gives? |

36D shouldn't be too hard to find. However, once you are in the land of D-cup, you are going to have a tougher time finding anything with sufficient support in the under $40 range. Just be glad you aren't any larger than a D (I'm a DDDD). And you will probably need to go with an underwire.
Target usually has a decent selection of D-cups. Victoria's Secret is overpriced for the quality, but you might find something on sale in your size. And look at herroom.com, barenecessities.com and figleaves.com. Their sales are usually pretty good. |

| Check the clearance racks at macys and lord and taylor. I used to be a 36D and I got some very good deals there. GL |

| online is the way to go IMO. I am 34 weeks pregnant and am sporting a 36E currently. Normally I am a 34D. Just got some new bras on Amazon for a good deal. Just go get fit somewhere to make sure you are correct about size and then I would consider online for more selection if you cant find what you want. |

| Amazon is good. Cheap is not always possible. My bras are $50+. I could buy cheaper ones, but they suck. A good fit and support are worth another $15. |

| I'm a 36DD and don't have too much trouble. I can't imagine 36D would be that hard to find. |

| Nordstrom and Macy's carry 36D Wacoal. They cost about $50. Maybe you don't need to spend that much, but you need a lot of support at that size so don't go too cheap. |

Check out Hot Milk for lovely nursing bras. I am a 36D, now, and I have accepted that the additional expense is worth it to feel comfortable and pretty:
http://www.hotmilklingerie.com/ You can find their discontinued styles for $40 or so. They are truly well-made and supportive, and have lasted through several children for me. |

LOL
If you have a D cup, the cute $10 stuff from VS won't hold them. The think straps will dig into your shoulders and your back will hurt. With such a large cup (H here if that matters) you'll want to prioritize support and not looks. And a good quality bra is expensive. I go to Kohls on Kcash days and get some of the investment back. Also look for sales. They often have buy one get one free. K also offers coupons online, just sign up at their website. Their prices are the best. |

| BTW, different brands and different styles in the same brand fit differently so make sure you get fitted in person and buy THE SAME BRAND AND MODEL if you must go online. |

Try Kohls & Steinmart.
I'm 36D and I think it is a popular size. |

Yes! I bought a bunch from them on sale/clearance after I got sick of the nursing bras. I love them and I don't think I paid more than $25 per Bra. I think they're still running a post holiday clearance too. |

Thanks, I don't understand the LOL. I know all about Kohls, my original post says I went to Kohls. Such limited supply, and 36D came in one style of the brand that I like (Warners, no underwire). I definitely am not looking for VS bras, I never bought from there to begin with. I don't need anything particularly fancy or cute, just was looking for a little variety... |
