Bra sizing!
by Caitlyn1990 9th September 2011, 2:01 pm
I know this is talked about a lot, and i have had a good old gander at all of the similar posts but i am so confused still.
I'm only 10 days post op, but my sports bra that i'm wearing atm is just far to loose now, and doesn't seem to be supporting my new boobies, which is making my back very sore, so i need to go invest in some new sports bras.
I've measured myself today now that a lot of the swelling has gone down, my back/band size is a 28, and my bust size is 34, i'm currently wearing a D, the online measurements are telling me that im ranging from a 32 B, to a 28E, i am utterly confused by this all, but i desperately need some new bras.
Could any of you lovely ladies help me?

From your measurements it sounds as if you'd be a 30E, but you're saying the D is too loose - do you mean in the cups or in the band?
I would maybe try to get to a department store and be measured? But at 10 days, you'll still fluctuate so much, I would only buy one bra at the moment...
hopefully someone else gives other advice!!
From experience, I'm 14 days PO, and measure a 34DD but the sportsbra I'm wearing is a 38D - the band is fine but the cups have a bit of room in them - I may be able to get away with a 38C, but the room is at the tops of the cups, so the boobies are still supported, so I'm not going to spend anymore money!! :)

Hi! I think the best thing to do is get down to Debenhams/M&S etc, and ask to be fitted into a bra - it's the only way to know for sure what size to get. Measuring yourself can only give you a rough idea because every bra manufacturer seems to have a different idea of bra sizes! Online calculators are really unaccurate too - according to them I'm a 30B, and I could wear that size before my op! I actually fit a 30D, so shows how rubbish they are! Xx
