Your body and your boobs have nothing to do with them. It’s tough. You want them to be excited for u. But equally they want to make sure your making the right decision for you and perhaps they think ur boobs are great as they are.

I much preferred the Amazon yianna bra but it really is such a personal thing everyone seems to feel so differently. For me the Macom rolled up when I was slumped on the sofa and although it probably was fine, I felt as though it was sitting on my incisions. The longline element to it just was not for me.
