    Trying to measure myself pre op to see what size i truly am ?
    When you measure your rib cage for your band size do you girls add 4 inches
    some say to add 4 in which case i <Measure 31 nearly 32
    that would make me a 36 bra ?
    or do you just take your measurement in inches and use that ?
    Ie id be a 32 ?
    so confused I wear a 34 back now however i have it on the tightest hook and can still easily pull it away from my back ?
    I cant see that I’m a 36
    please help 🙂

    That’s exactly right Hun you would be a 36 back if it’s an odd number you add 5 if it’s even add 4 so 31 would be 36 32 would be 36!! Xx

    Oh but remember you are only measuring under your bust and don’t take a big breath in …. Also the shop you bought the bra in can change the fit I have 30s 32s and 34s all fit the same from different shops!!! Not much help when you wanna know what size to buy!! Xx

    My surgeon put me down as s 32 as well
    Hence I have a small bwd
    I’ve been told my maximum is 375cc uhp
    I don’t know whether to push my luck and ask for bigger
    However for an extra 50cc which isn’t even half a cup size is it worth the risks 🙂

    So hard just wish surgery day would hurry up I’m driving myself crazy second guessing xx

    I dont have a clue either im a 28back but i wear a 32 and thats comfy so maybe add 4 is right. Iv never tried a 30back as i use middle clips on 32.
    Everyone has there own way of measuring maybe ask after ur surgery when u get measured for new bras how they do it

    the surgeon measured me 36dd/e but I wear 34dd, I find 34 band fit me best in most shops, I do happen to have a 36d but it’s big on band and cups! I have no idea what I’ll be after my 800s lol!! Xxx
