Dr. Heidi Fowler answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

Are your breasts: Large/ heavy? Some women (especially those with larger breasts or who are pregnant) sleep in a bra for comfort. It is recommended that a bra worn for sleep have a soft cup without underwire or metal clasps. A shelf or cross-over design is also recommended.
