More than you ever wanted to know

OK.  So – men?  You can leave now.

Just us ladies?

I’ve got a little problem and I need help from you.  You see, I have this, well, nipple issue in my clothes.  As in the highbeams are ALWAYS on.

Today in the restroom, my shirt was folded up while I fastened my pants and I caught a glimpse in the mirror.  Mind you I’m wearing a tank top under my shirt.  Plus bra.  Which means, while folded up over itself, I had 6 layers over them, and still Major Highbeams.

WHAT DO I DO?  I just manage to cross my arms over my chest most of the time.  Is there a special kind of bra?  Is that what a padded bra is for?  I had never bought a padded bra before, as I have B+ cups, so I’ve never gone for more so to speak.

HELP ME.  This is embarrassing.  I mean – after kids, I don’t need an actual ARROW pointing south, you know?

    Isn’t there some kind of “tape” you can put on your nips? I am sure they have something like that.. if not, try masking tape.. or band-aids. 😛

    I have the same problem, cause I have ginormous nipps. I usually buy bras with a thin layer of padding or you can using some nipple covers similar to these:

    I have this same issue. Big nipples, pointy highbeams all the time, Ridiculous.
    I got new bras. Both kinds from victoria’s secret. Biofit is lightly padded (which I don’t actually need) except that it is just thick enough to hide the headlights. Also the Ipex. Both do the job. I only wear the old bras when wearing a sweater or sweatshirt or when I am not leaving the house. Cause I was feeling a little porny while picking up the kids after school on a warm day. (Lordy – the shit you don’t think you’ll have to think about well into your thirties. Gah!)

    Fellow Ipex lover chiming in. I originally bought it for the coverage but ended up loving the support. Basically I don’t buy bras anymore unless there is enough padding to prevent the headlight problem.

    And if I end up wearing a bra without enough nipple coverage I’ll pull out some of the left over nursing pads from my breastfeeding days.

    Honey, i am the queen of the tiny titties (aa) and fireplug nipples. You can buy the stick on petal things, but they’re expensive. I use a Wacoal bra with enough padding to hide the beams, but I won’t lie– I have sweaty boobs here in Alabama in the summer, which is April through October. If you find a solution please RSVP!!

    Yes, oh yes that is what padded bras are for. Haven’t stopped wearing them in 12 years for that exact reason.
