by jensk 10th March 2014, 1:19 pm

Hi ladies! Long time no chat on here soz, I rebooked for 3rd April, I'm so scared now it's so close because it feels so real!

So in propagation I've got my pjs, arnica, etc. just wondering about bra.

I'm
Looking at macom ones, I realise I'll need to get a couple.

Which type shall I get? There are a few shapes and I do t know which is best. I'm a 33b now getting 410 overs.

Any advice would be very much appreciated :) xx

I love my macom bra! Just make sure u measure your band size before u order x

by jensk 10th March 2014, 6:01 pm

I'm more confused about the shape. There are all diets of style if bra, do I just get the one at the top of this list? [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] do I need a band or anything? Thanks xx

Hi, yes the 1007 macom seems to be the best one to use. Measure your band size and then order the correct one for you. You don't need to worry about cup size then. I am a 31 1/2 band size so I have the small but I also bought a medium off another member from here to account for any band swelling in the 1st week. Xx

I've got the best seller 1007 too. Lucia is modelling it in her avatar x

Thanks very much, will 2 be enough then? how long do You normally need to wear it for? Xx

by tinkerbell24 10th March 2014, 6:21 pm

yeah 2 bras are enough one to wear one to wash

some of us are 6 weeks but its becomong common to be in teh sports bra fo 12 weeks and most of us sleep in them

I cant wait to get back in a bra in not allowed support and have a compression band on xx

by Sahara1981 10th March 2014, 6:21 pm

Normally 6 weeks but depends on surgeon
I'm planning to wear mine at night after that x

I've just measured and I measure 28.5 - 29" under bust, do I go for 30 band width for a Macom? Seems weird because I wear a 32 or sometimes 34 band x

by LuciaH 12th March 2014, 11:18 am

Hi Dayzeee, of you measure that you would need the 30 which is thre extra small. If you have been wearing a bigger band bra size you may be wearing the wrong siE bra like I was for years. I wore a 36a for the cup soE but I only measure a 31 1/2 so should have been in a 32. But then tou have to go up through the cup sizes as you come down the band size. Follow the link below and measure using this guide to find out for sure what you are now. Xx

Thanks Lucia, so did you get a 32 Macom and does it fit comfortably? X

by LuciaH 12th March 2014, 11:33 am

I bought a small macom which is a 32 and it fits perfectly. I did buy a medium off another member on here too to account for any band swelling which I wore the fear few days, but I also have it to put on when my small is in the wash. Xx

Bras of choice here are Macom, shock absorber , m and s zip front and triumph extreme. You may want one back fastening one a you can use bra extenders if your quite swollen.

Usual time for wearing them 6 -12 weeks depending on your healing x

by Dayzeee 12th March 2014, 12:10 pm

Thanks ladies, I've ordered an extra small Macom in champagne colour, wanted a black one too but out of stock boo! :(
According to that website and measuring guide I'm a 30e/f ! Really!? I'm 29 under bust and 36 accross bust leaning forward as they instruct. Been wearing 32/34 d for as long as I can remember. X

by LuciaH 12th March 2014, 12:14 pm

The black macoms lack macoms always seem to be out of stock. It is crazy when you measure you size properly. I wore a 36a but found out I was actually as 32dd! I did a little measure last night (shouldn't really as only 5 days post op) but coming out a 32f at the moment. X

by Dayzeee 12th March 2014, 12:22 pm

Lucia Yours look bigger than a f cup.

I hope they get the black ones in before my ba, I've got 4 weeks to go I'd really like a black one too. The Macom seems an ideal choice as it moulds to your size and who knows what size we will end up, especially if you don't know your size like me to start with ha! X

by LuciaH 12th March 2014, 1:18 pm

Lol, do you think so? I do love them so much already.

I really wanted a black Macom too but they never seem to be in stock so I ended up with 2 of the nude colour ones. They are really comfy and easy to wear and like you say you don't need to worry about the cup size which is fab. Xx

by tinkerbell24 12th March 2014, 1:26 pm

oh yeah yours are bigger than an f

I can be 32e/f and your bigger xx

by rachij 12th March 2014, 2:02 pm

Hey,

I bought two macoms a 34 and 32 but only wore the 34 band one day as all my swelling went so as I had only worn it one day I sold it to a girl on here and bought a m&s zip front bra which I alternate to sleep in with my small macom.

by Dayzeee 12th March 2014, 2:07 pm

Yeah they def look bigger than an f Lucia :)

I emailed Macom about the black ones this morning, asking when they will be in stock...she replied and said within 10 days. So keep checking the website :) x

by LuciaH 12th March 2014, 2:22 pm

I honk you may be right. I bought a 32e and a 32f m&s zip up sports bras from eBay post op thinking that's sort of we where I would be but I just tried the 32f on and I can zip he bottom of it up at the band but can no way do it up over my boobs!

by Sahara1981 12th March 2014, 2:25 pm

I want a new black one as my white ones Yuk and stained.
Plus my black one is wrong size for me.

They've been out of black for ages!! That's y I ended up with white :-(

by tinkerbell24 12th March 2014, 2:58 pm

yeah my m&s zip up is a 34f and it was tight too xx

by LuciaH 12th March 2014, 3:36 pm

I can do the bottom bit up on the 32 but there is no way at all I could zip it up unless I pushed them together severely and damaging them. Xx
