New clothes after BA

Hiya all-

Just a bit of a random question,

I was just wondering what new clothes you bought for after BA? Have u needed to go up a size in clothes?? Did u wear tops that yoy buttoned up front or over head?? What clothes did u wear home from hospital??? Are clothes a big issue after BA???

sorry for all questions – any advice would b appreciated!!

Thanks all

hey hun, i had button up pj top to come home from hospital in, glad i did aswel cz dn think i cuda put anything over my head.

clothing wise now, im in a 12 tops, 10 bottoms, so its pretty hard to get dresses and i havent even gone that big. im better with more fitted clothing now and lower necklines, iv started selling loads of my old going out dresses on ebay to try and get a bit of money to buy new before i had boobs i never had anything low cut, was all more high neck, crew neck. and now they jst make me look too top heavy, and baggier clothing, oversized tops etc do nothing for me at all! definitely had to change the way i dress, but im glad cz i lost 1 n half stone before my op so im defo liking the fitted clothing with boobies!

i had 345cc from 34B by the way xxx

Coming home and for the first few days you will need tops that can either pull up over your bottom or do up at the front.

As time goes on i still fit in all my old clothes but like chels says you will probably change what you want to wear. I’ve discovered that in some clothes i look smaller or no different from when i used to wear a padded bra but in others i’m enormous!

Luckily when we saved the money for my BA we saved a bit extra for bra’s and clothes so once mine have settled i’m looking forward to a bit of a shopping spree!

Chels- what size bra are you in now then??

Thanks both! Just as I guessed, I will

Be wearing different clothes after BA… Hopefully b able to wear more fitted clothing!

So button up front clothing for first few days!

All of my pj’s are vest top style, so i presume i wont be able to get these on, where is the best place to get some that button up?

The only normal tops i can find that button up are shirts/blouses so i dont think they’ll be very comfy, well not as comfy as pjs lol

chels is a 32F now! woop woop! i think the best thing to take are some zip up hoodies, just borrow them from your brothers/boyfriend (that’s what i’m doing) and if that’s not an option you can get zip up tops really cheap from primark, like £4, get a large comfy size though x

Well you defo want pj’s that button up, i got a night shirt from la senza in sale bargin at 7 quid n was very comfy.

As for my old clothes im fitting into pretty much everything and with some clothes fitting them better I did have one top that didnt but possibly do now as i was still quite swollen at that point.

But point id make is be carefull what you put on after op as some clothes may not be bad at getting on, but getting off are like getting blood out of a stone lol. I very nearly cut one of my tops off haha but once you can get ya hands above your head you’ll be fine

Im coming up to 2 weeks post op n looking forward to bra n clothes shopping!!! Happy healing x

yep 32F! defs dnt look that tho, also got alot of 34E bras.cz i hate it wen the backs too tight! xx
