Hi Rachael, So nice to see you. In answer to your question, yes I have issues with soreness and pulling. I had never been a large woman.... but now that I can't do the HRT I have gained weight and I am much larger than ever before on top! Never had a weight issue before, but the menopausal body is a lot different than the one I had with hormones. (had to stop the HRT because of the blood clots). Now I have pulling and soreness from the added weight on the pacer site. I had to buy all new lingerie to fit my new shape! Oh well, a girl must look good underneath it all. (I wear scrubs most days)
Take care, you are not alone. Shopping helped me a lot. The right fit is the most important thing. Then how it looks!

I am actually the same as yourself. When I have been in bed and get up in the morning it can feel as though it is pulling. Aches a bit sometimes as well.

How are you apart from that?
