    Hi all, when should i expect the swelling to reach it’s max? I got measured in M&S and was reccomended to get a 34 DD for my post surgical bra, i put it on within an hour of my op but it took 2 people to get it on (hubby & nurse) it nearly crippled me overnight but luckily Emily at Newcastle said she thought i would need a 34E so i took it with me, i swopped into that on day 2, was fine for about 12 hours then i swelled a bit more and it was literaly cutting around my arms so hubby went back and bought me a 34 F and a 36 F, ive been in the 36F since yesterday, the chestband is more tolerable on this allthough still tight but the cup is seriously tight! Theres no way im buying a G! I know once the swelling goes down i’ll get to use them all again for a short period of time but i was just wondering is it common to have 4 days of getting bigger and bigger???
    Was thinking about putting a small slit under the arm but at £25 a bra i really wanted to give them to somebody on the forum once im passed needing them x
