This bra is NOT very comfortable. NOW having said that I'm not sure if a smaller size would be better. I would try that avenue BUT I took the tags off the bra and wore it a few times already to find out that it's very uncomfortable. The straps are itchy and they fall down. I just find that for the amount of money I wouldn't buy this bra again. On the positive side, I do love that the cups pull to the side but I would look for a similar bra that does the same.
