5 weeks… been measured 32E (425/450 hp partials) Started by: Jennifer

Hey hun I’m exactly the same as you, 5 weeks post op and wearing either 34DD or 32E. I can’t push mine together enough to get a proper cleavage yet as my implants don’t move just the boob around them if you get me. Guessing it’s cos I had unders and they’re not settled and soft enough. I’m sure it will come with time. They look great hun so please don’t lose hope x

First of all I think you should try somewhere like Boux for bras as M&S are for the ahem ‘older generation’!

We’re only just 5 weeks with partials/unders so there nowhere near settled yet hun, our skin and muscles are still tight. It says we can expect them to look more softer and natural between 3-6 MONTHS!

I wouldn’t bother rushing to buy bras, just one if you really need it – I read of girls spending fortunes after their 6 week check, only to find that 2 weeks later their bras are TOO SMALL!

Don’t panic hun, give them time xx

Hey! I’m pod10 and feeling slightly disheartened as I feel like my boobs are shrinking but I have been told that they change everyday and just be patient. I don’t have a cleavage either and my boobs were like ‘ski slopes’ before I had my BA… Let’s be proud of what we’ve got, must be better than what we had?!
Give it time 🙂 xxxx

It’s just that they need to settle more, I bought 2 bras plunge ones and felt disheartened but then I realised I could get cleavage before my ba, and they are just a little too stiff yet to be moulded into any bra especially a push up! They will soften and squidge more in time, mine are 5 Weeks too and I can only just start to push them together but they spring back like a blinking brand new clutch on a car hehehehe xxx

I put a push up bra on this weekend when I got measured and the gap was the same! Mine don’t move that much yet either! Still pleased! Measured 32DD but might end up 30E in some styles as some were tight (like the pale one). I ended up getting a ‘demi’ bra with a very light padding so it sort of sits round the boobs rather than trying to push them somewhere they currently clearly don’t want to go! 😉

Jennifer I agree with all the girls, they are still brand new, you’ll have a few months before they really settle in and become your own. I’m 9 weeks post op and they’ve changed so much over the last 4 weeks! They got a lot softer and the shape is changing. I’m wearing a non padded non wire bra along with a plunge line sports bra and my Macon. It’s not recommended to get a wired bra until the 3 month mark. I think 5 weeks is way too soon to wear a ‘proper’ bra. Your body still has a lot of healing to do. The pressure from the wire will not be good for your incisions. Incisions can look healed on the outside, but they are still healing on the inside too 🙂 You’re boobies look great and you’re going to be chuffed with them when they are fully dropped and fluffed! X

also….my surgeon said i will defo have a bigger gap as my breasts at the bottom are further apart x
