hey i have a boston brace and i wear the undershirts my doctor gave me. they're white seamless and a kinda thick cotton type of material. a few of them ride up under my brace even though i fold them over my brace. how can i stop them from riding up? and has anybody tried some of those spandex seamless type tanks like from victorias secret???? are they better than what i'm wearing?????

same problem
okay so i have the same problem, although I don't know about the victoria's secret things, i will try to check it out. if you try them, tell me how it goes. what i end up doing is when i go to the bathroom or something i pull the bottom of the shirt, and pull it up higher over the brace. the other problem is my shirts are starting to get worn out and they are getting bigger. anyways, if you find out anything, please tell me.I am 14

undershirts
hey, ya i do the same thing in the bathroom. are you putting your undershirts in the dryer after you wash them because they stay pretty small when i do that. i'm not sure about the vs undershirts just because they might be to thin of a material. i'll ask my brace doctor at my next appointment which is sometime this fall.
i hope he's not too mad because i haven't been wearing my brace to much this summer...LIBBY

yeah, i put mine in the dryer, i don't know because i have size medium, but they also gave me one size small, and that one seems to fit better, i will probably talk to my doctor and see if i can get a different size. i think its funny b/c i also live in a teeny tiny town in NH. i go to the concord hospital for treatment, if you know where that is.I am 14

Hey people not sure if you have come across this site but please take a look as I think it might answer your problem.
Our daughter is about to go in to her first Boston Brace and we have just ordered these and getting them shipped to Australia where we live.
p.s is there any chance I can have my 11 1/2 year old to contact any of you to talk about going in to a brace for the first time?

undershirts
My daughter has worn a brace since she was 5-she is 13 now. She wears several different things. Undershirts (sleeveless) from Old Navy, or girls undershirts from Hanes, also a bra type camisole from JC Penneys that is really stretchy and leaves no wrinkles but stretches easily down to come out the bottom of the brace. We have rarely had a rub and those few cleared within a day or two.
You are welcome to contact me with questions for my daughter from yours. She does not have personal access to the computer but I can let her read your emails and she can respond. She is positive and well adjusted and it is just a way of life for us that has become very natural.

Hey
I've got a boston brace, too!
It's one big party down here =P
I usually wear a cami (or camisole) under my brace. It's like a spaghetti-strap shirt with a built-in-bra. I would invest in some of those.Hey, I'm Laura, 13, 8th grade
