    I got my strapping off Monday evening and not sure how tight my sports bras should be? Pre op i’m a 32 and yesterday i was wearing a 34C which felt a little loose on the band so i ordered a 32C & 32D bra online next day delivery. They arrived today and neither of them fit! If i really forced the 32D shut my boobs would be really squashed and pushed together (awesome cleavage i might add but pretty painful). My strapping was crazy tight, should the sports bra be really tight too or should i be able to close it with ease? I’m now wearing a 34D asda bra which feels good today but i think they just swelled up overnight maybe?

    It needs to be tight in order to hold the implants in place while the pockets heal, but definitely not uncomfortably tight xx

    @kirsty2512 it’s currently tight but I feel like it’s pushing them together which is making my sternum feel a little sore? Wasn’t sure if it should be that tight?

    I’d say it should be a bit looser than that tbh. I don’t think it should be so tight that is forces your boobs into any direction/position. They need to be supported but left to their natural position to heal into the pockets at the moment xx
