    What bras did everyone get for the day of surgery. I’ve been every where today but not mananged get any as I’m unsure of what cup size order. I know I need order a back size bigger but how did u know ur cup size without been measured and I couldn’t find any with just back size measurements. I’ve ordered a Macon bra for now for the day but need more bras for the 6 weeks but don’t really want pay £50 for another Macom bra xx

    Hi Joanne I’m 5dpo and know exactly how u feel, I brought 2 macoms for hospital and 2 from Debenhams ….I’ve only wore my macoms as they are the only ones that fit me comfortably, the 2 I got from Debenhams I carnt even fasten as I’ve swelled that much!!! I measure 30 back so ordered 32 and that doesn’t come anywhere near!!! So for the past 3 days I’ve been sat ordering bras!!!! Still not found one, macom are best cost u only measure size of ur back not cup size xx good luck x

    I bought high impact sports bras from Marks and Spencer’s, you get two in a pack black and white for £30. I bought a back size bigger than I was to accommodate for swelling and went for the cup size that I hoped to be . I bought two packs of different sizes, kept hold of my receipt and refunded the ones I didn’t need yesterday 🙂 they’ve been great so far but they are back fastening (my surgeon actually recommended back fastening) x

    Agree Jane Marie they are really comfy and good to sleep in too. I had my dressings removed yesterday and the nurse gave me gauze to put over just incase my bra rubbed my incisons but it’s not rubbed once! X
