Title: Breasts are growing.

So I am getting fairly fast growth. My mother's breasts are above average as well, so, all signs are pointing towards a fairly decent amount of growth.
But I don't plan to go full time and do any surgeries until after I am graduated, so I can pay for them and be independent from the wishes of my father. Basically, what could I do to hide my breasts without harming them until I am full time?

Get a compression sports bra, and wear a loose tee shirt over it. Basically the same as FTM. (except you won't need a binder.)
Sports bras are not going to damage the tissue, no worries.

Thanks Citrine, that is useful!
I saw some of your videos, I wish you the best from here on and I hope you don't face the same problems you did before. It was a much harder struggle for you than it was for me.
*hugs*

As Citrine Oak has said, sports bras do quite well. Personally, I like Spanx for Men. They are a life saver. :)

Well, um, the stuff made for women tend to enhance the breasts and make them more noticeable where as the stuff made for men tend give a muscular appearance... So if your trying to hide the girls...

Well there are bras that are design to flatten, but they tend to be design for someone with a larger bust.

I have the same thing happening. I've only been on a low dosage of Spiro for a month and a low dosage of Premarin for 2 weeks and I already have a tiny boob that's popped up out of nowhere! Only one boob, the other side being a man chest, but I'm happy to know that the HRT is working! :)

sports bras don't really enhance. They serve to compress so that 'the girls' are not an issue when competing in an athletic endeavor. Take a look at womens college softball or basketball games and you will see a number of the players who look as though they have next to no chest...and I can assure you that, uniform not withstanding, they are quite spectacular when not on the field or on the court (being up close and personal with some players at a very large D-1 school taught me MANY things).
Most sporting goods stores have a decent selection, with a larger selection being found at the big-box sports stores (ie. Academy).
