Can't work out if new bra fits or not....

I'm about 8 weeks post op and have been measured a few times, they all tell me I am 32 band and that 34 is too big but 32 feels so tight. I have bought about 3 different bras now and they all leave an imprint on my skin when I take them off, not just a couple of light marks but an imprint of pretty much the whole bra on my skin, I can see where the underwire part has been sitting and it looks like it sits about 1cm below the bottom of my boob, should the underwire fit in the crease at the bottom of your boob? I'm getting so confused by all this and it's starting to stress me out not knowing if this is the right size or even in the right position? Any advice please!

ive tried measuring myself 100 times using different techniques and every time i come out a different size. now i just go into a shop, pick up a bra in 3 different sizes and feel whats best for me in that shop! you can feel it they cant! i try moving about and crunching up with the bra on so that i can see if its going to dig in or rub when i move normally not posing like i do in the shop in front of the mirror lol! x

I think you have to use the measurements as a "guide". A good bra measurer would will bring you bras to try on in a variety of sizes close to your measured size to see which one fits best. All bras are manufactured by different companies and therefore there are going to be discrepencies in their sizes. Its a case of being flexible on the actual sizes and trying lots of duifferent bras and makes to see which suit you best

I was fitted to a 32 band and I thought I was a 34 and it did feel kind of tight but after wearing it a couple time it felt just fine and I am glad I bought the 32 as now I am sure its the right size because after a few wears it feels right and sitll stays in place and gives good support where if I had gotten the bigger band it would be loose by now.

I've been told my surgeons and bravissimo (they have the best reputation) I've always been told that the underwire should go the entire way round ur boob(implant) and there should be no pressing or sqashing anywhere on any part of ur boob! Bravissimo are perfect for BA girls as their cups are really round and lovely!!!

It took me a while to get used to wearing a 30 back instead of a 34/36 as I did pre ba. But after a while I realised it was as I was being supported not let loose. Xxxx
