Sports Bras

Hi

Have a quick question that I hope someone can help me with. Having BA on 9th April (v excited now) and need to get sports bras. Currently 32a (sure they are shrinking as the days go by!!!) Having 300 or 325 UHP unders (depends on what fits - hoping for the 325 to be honest!). Advised this should get me to a good 32D (hope so!!)

Now, did you get sports bras in bigger back sizes to allow for swelling - was thinking 34D to start with and then when swelling goes down, go back down to my normal 32 back. I've tried an Asda one, and that doesn't feel very big round the back - do they generally come up a bit smaller than say M&S??

What do you think/recommend?? Have 28 inch ribcage if that helps!

Thanks for your help.

I can't tell you from experience just from what the nurse told me.

I told her I was aiming for 32dd/e and she advised 34 (band size bigger than usual) and same cup size bra. xx

I got mine from asda (34dd) and I found that the back was really tight, so I got a 36dd instead (prob should have gone for 36d as like nads pointed out to me the cup size will be bigger aswell as back), hopefully it will fit if I'm aiming for dd/e size

I would definately get a bigger back size hun so if you're a 32 back i would buy a 32 band for after swelling goes down and a 34 for straight after and maybe some bra extenders, i've heard la senza sell them as you will be pretty swollen from the GA, not long to go now! x
