Measurements.....

Does anyone's underbust measure 28 and full bust 34? If so what size bra do u wear, finding every shop is measuring me differently and every website too x

Sounds like you will be a 28e or 30dd

It's so confusing this size business, I used to wear a 34a but always on the tightest hook, now I'm wearing a 34d sports bra supplied by surgeon but I've been measured 28f 30e and 34d and m&s website I thi k it was said I was a 34aa!!! Lol m&s need to sort it out cos I've got a 34d from there which fits

It is confusing but the band u r wearing sounds far too big if ur only measuring 28under the bust!I wud go with what misf1 has suggested xx bra shopping is a pain in the **naughty word**!lol xx

Tell me about it, I knew 34 was too big but the gel bras seemed to do the trick under a tight top and didn't move about like a 32, good old m&s with their plus 4 thing, they told me to get 34 although I'd been wearing a 32 at the time. They never let me take my bra off to be measured either which is so wrong cos I always wore bras that made u 2 sizes bigger. I've got 3 more wks in this sports bra and strap so will probably bypass the measuring in shops grab a handful and try them on. I just wanna tell people when they ask what size I am now xxx

It's different in different shops hun. I'd tell people the biggest size you been measured at. You will always have to try every bra before you buy

Lol yeah b4 I had boobs I just bought them but I will be having some fun in the changing rooms from now on. Thanks for ur replys I'd love to hear from anyone who has the same measurements xxx

im 28rib cage and 34 inch bust and im a 32dd - 30e :)

Here's a link on how to measure bra size with breast implants...

After using this guide, I was able to find a bra that fits. It goes up to DDD (F Cup).

Another good bra size calculator...

This one was right on the money for me :)

i would put you in either a 28E or a 30D, but id suggest taking those sizes and the sizes either side of it into the changing room to find the best fit, as it can vary from bra to bra

Thanks everyone I will try the websites thanks, kaliegh we r the same, same surgeon too, lol. Hope u r all happy with ur boobies, I love mine whatever the size much better than my previous tic tacs on an ironing board xxx is a 30d a small size or am I small with big boobs?? Xxx

your small with big boobs....i do find myself wondering the same thing tho. your the first person on here thats had my orkar too. and i do love my boobs, feeling coming back in lefty now and they are evening out :) xx

Yay I like being small with big boobs. I haven't put any pics up yet but mine do look just like urs I've got a very similar photo in a black vest top. Mr Orkar is lovely but does seem a bit rare, he's very qualified tho, I did notice that no one had mentioned him, I had mine done at the Mcindoe tho, I always knew I was going to get it done there, was recommend by loads of friends and my daughter had an op there, I was very lucky as it just so happened they were doing a £1000 off offer but u couldnt choose the surgeon I was lucky to get him I'm very pleased and he seemed to no exactly what I wanted. He was on embarrassing bodies.

My boobs never went numb I've been able to feel both but the incisions have just started feeling a bit numb at times. It was quite painful the first few days tho. My right one seems to be the one that's taking longer to settle, it's a nit higher. Do u have to wear a strap?? How tall r u if u don't mind me asking xxx

Straight after your surgery your band size will increase alot due to swelling so post op I was fitted with a 32FF sports bra which was way to tight so ended up in a 34DD one........after 5 weeks the swelling went down and i returned to my normal band size which is 28-30 band! I measure 26& a hlaf inches under bust......but straight after my op and for a few weeks I measured 34 inches due to swelling:shock: ....you P.S probably put you in a 34 band sized bra due to swelling but now thats gone down your back to your normal band size 28-30.



I measure 26 and a half under boobs and 35 round my boobs and im in 30G balconet bras or 30 F push ups





xx

i found mr orkar not really one with too many words but defo knows his boobs...and yeah, saw him on tv again the other day. it was my left nipple that went numb for a couple of months but had started going slightly sensitive over the last couple of weeks....such a reliefe, thought i had lost it forever! lol. my right one has taken onger to settle too. and im 5ft8 :) xx

He actually tried the m&s 34d, he said that was far too tight and he didn't like it anyway, not the right sort or something, so he got me a 36 and 34d Royce bra the 36 was comfortable but a bit rippling on the cups so I asked of I could try the 34 which just felt right, so yeah I think maybe the 32 would fit me better as I'm used to wearing a 34, I will have to try loads on but I can't see me feeling comfortable in a 30 although it sounds like I am a 30! Lol, that's every size covered!!! X

Yeah he's a quiet man but I think the minute I walked in he knew what I was going to ask for. I still haven't seen it will have to have a look. Wow 5'8 I'd love to say that I'm tiny 5'1. I've got cleavage going on today, i can squish them and move them about a bit too. So can't wait to go bra shopping. I'm planning a hol for next yr too x
