I originally ordered this bra because I want something that I can wear this summer or while doing housework and not feel like I'm sweaty and gross in that area and I want something with very little but some padding. I expect to be having baby number 2 in the fall/winter of this year. I want a bra that is comfy especially this summer as I will be "growing". At first I was going to send this one back. I hated the thickness. It seems a little thicker than I thought, but it really isn't that bad at all. I ended up loving this bra! It's very comfortable...probably the most comfortable of this kind I've bought. I can barely tell I am wearing a underwire bra with it.
