Yet another one for the ladies. Do you wear your bra once and then wash it or do you wear it a few times before washing it?
For me it depends. If I was just lounging around or wearing it for normal use then I'll wear it a few times. If I was sweating a lot due to the heat or exercise then I'll only wear it once and then wash it.

I wash mine after wearing it once if I wear it all day. I have 2 bras that are my favorites from Victoria Secret. One is hot pink. I can only wear it under certain items. If I put it on to go out for dinner or for an short amount of time, I will wear it agian without washing it.

I agree. Hot and sweaty and it definitely only gets one use!

I have to admit shamefully that I don't wash my bras often at all. I only do it when I think about it, which is really rare. I stinky icky girl. lol

heheh That's okay. I usually wash mine after a few times because they feel more supportive after they have been washed.lol But a lot of times I'll wear the same bra for a week. Only recently have I been wearing different ones every day. Or I switch off and on and just put it back in the drawer for next time. =)

lol I thought about starting a similar discussion but I was too embarassed. I usually wear mine a few times before washing. I don't know...my boobs don't seem to sweat as much as the rest of me and bras are under my clothes so they aren't getting dirty from being exposed to stuff outside my shirts.
If I were to sweat a lot. I'd wash it imediately too.

I figure first off, no one really knows me here. hehe Second, I've seen lots of crazy things posted here before and figured this wasn't all that bad. hehe I hesitated on posting it for a mere couple of minutes then thought...just do it.lol Lately it's been really hot and we haven't put the A/C in yet. So I find I'm sweating a lot more. But I agree. They are an undergarment and they are only used to support our girls. Underwear though...that's an entirely different story. Sometimes I'll go through 3 pairs in a day if for whatever reason I do not feel "clean" or whatever.lol TMI...sorry

It depends for me, too. If I'm doing something really active, like yard work, I'll wear it once. If I'm not, then I'll wear it a few times.

I agree. It's not like underwear. hehe I sometimes wear two or three different pairs a day.

I smell it first before deciding whether I should wear it again or not. If I could smell sweat, that's the time I toss it into the laundry basket. :)

Yeah I've done that as well. If it still smells clean or smells like my perfume I'll re-wear it. But if I smell sweat it's definitely time to toss it to the laundry basket!

I usually wear mine a few times before i wash it. If its a white bra, i'll wear it once,then wash it

I wash mine at the end of every day. However if I've just worn it for a special evening out I won't always wash it and at the weekends I don'ot always wear a bra at all.

So you basically wear it once and then wash it. =) I wish I could get away not wearing a bra more often! The only time I don't wear one is if I know no one is stopping over and we're just watching tv at night and definitely not to go to sleep in one. Sometimes on the weekends I'll be lazy and in my jammies longer than usual so I won't wear one then either.

I wear my bra a few times when I didn't sweat, or I just went to a store or used it when Im at home, but if I sweat I wear it only once then I wash it.
