Has anyone else thought they are bigger

Than what they actually were measured as???
I have read so many post's where girls have gone and got measured and they are 2 or 3 cup sizes bigger than what they thought they were
So when i went and got measured i was told i was a 32dd, (i sound spoilt that i want bigger ) So 2 other fitting's later and everyone has said the same but to me they look huge but the bra's all fit perfectly,
I know its just a number and i should be happy with what i have compared to what had before ba, and it's easy to find that size, but i cant help feeling abit ho humm about it all, i think because i thought (pre ba) that 460cc was a 2 large a implant for me and that on the day of surgery i opted for the 410cc, i cant help thinking i would have had a better "bum" cleavege than i do now, which is silly because it's only 50cc difference.
Maybe this is the boob greed i have heard about
And i said i would never get boob greed, as i felt i started with nothing anything on top is a bonus

32DD is pretty darn big though honey. What size were you pre-op? Have you gone up at least 2 cup sizes?? Also I think it's important to note your op was only just over a month ago....the fluffing fairy still has to yet to come!! I thought they recommend you wait until 6 weeks until getting measured....they might change yet!! x x

it might be worth getting fitted in more than one place.
What are your measurements?

Whoops i put the wrong date on my profile
I'm just over 8 weeks now, to be honest i think they have settled as must as they are going to most of my upper pole fullness has dropped and settled and my boobs are pretty much soft and squishy, unless im lucky and the fluffing fairy has got lost on the way???

I have tried 3 different shops, m&s, debenhams, and la senza and they have all said the same,
My measurement's are 72 cm underbust and 92 cm across the widest part.
I think i should be lucky that 3 diffrent places have said the same, it makes shopping for bra's a bit easier,xx

So that's about 28 and a half and just over 36 inches, that's a pretty big difference, 8 inches nearly! I haven't even got that much difference between my measurements and I had 615cc's.

You might find a 30 band and something around E, F or FF fits better, but it depends on lots of things about your shape, either way they're some pretty big boobs you've got there.

From those measurements, id also try taking a 28FF into the changing room and also a 30E (if you can find them)
Debenhams are usually quite good for small band sizes and large cup sizes.
Their "gorgeous" range, and also the freya range and fantasie range come in those sizes.

You might find that your bra size is bigger than the size you look - this is because implants are wider and rounder than natural breasts, so they fit into bra cups differently. Fake breasts require larger cup sizes than natural breasts that measure the same.

Sorry I read the original post wrong lol. Ignore my previous response.

Hi,

Try not to be disappointed. You have a long way to go still. I had 410 overs last May, going from a 32B to a 30F now.

I fluffed again at about 8 months post op. It takes a good year for even overs to settle completely I think.

I was first a DD, then an E and now a F.

I went to Rigby & Peller a few weeks back . They are very expensive (my bra and thong set cost £109.00, ouch) but their fitting service is excellent and the bras fit like a glove.

watch out for that fluffing fairy! I pend £150 in bravissimo a month ago and they all seem to be getting abit on the small side this last week! aarrgghhh! Not that I'm complaining

Hey hun, it's still early days so it can all still change, I thought mine were done at 3 months post op but I was wrong.

Isn't it funny how quickly we forget what we had started off with and soon become slightly dissatisfied with our amazing new boobies, because lets face it they are almost always a million times better than what we started out with and what seemed massive when we first had them done now seems small as we have got used to them. I bet pre ba you would have dreamed of DD's and now its like well a few more cc's and I could have an.....

I'm sure they are fabulous hun and DD's are a great size. I look at it like this with the booby greed I can always make them look a bit bigger but its really hard and unsexy to make them look smaller xx
