Sizing confusion? In disbelief o-:

Today I am exactly 6 weeks post op… Bored with nothing to do I decided to venture into town to get measured for a 3rd and final opinion. I had previously been measured as 32ff in debenhams and 34dd at ann summers (ann summers don’t measure they just go by eye) … So quite a difference, at the time I bought a couple of 34dd bras from ann summers as I was in disbelief that I was a 32ff as boobs do not look/ feel that big to me! but I wore ann sumers bra for a day and it felt awful! The back ended rising up my back and nipples hanging over the cups! So i went to debenhams and saw a completely different woman from last time and she measured me as a 32f ! I showed her the ann summers bras I previously bought and tried them on for her and she pointed out how wrong the size of the back and cups were… So I took them back /-: I Still can’t believe I am a 32f!! And did worry about not being able to find nice looking bras in that size, but I did find some lovely bras in m&s at a good price too! Pics and prices added on my profile…. Really Sorry if I’ve gone on a bit! Has anyone else experienced sizing confusion? X

I haven’t had my surgery yet but hope you don’t mind the add hun xx

They look really good. Very jealous. I’m seeing my surgeon wednesday. Eek x

You find if you drop a back size go down to 30 and go a cup that 30FF will fit too xx

I’m an F cup in m & s and Ann summers , a DDD in Victoria secrets , but it is a nitemare getting bigger bras u r right xx

I was measured a 27G at Victoria’s secret. My boobs don’t look that big. 30E and 32DD bras from M&S fit me well, and I’ve found that 34DD bras from primark are a good fit too. I was in primark yesterday and I tried on a 34D extra padded bra, which seemed way too big. This confused me a little bit. I think I’ll go to bravissimo next and see what size I’ll be. xxx

Thanks girls @mush78 @fionajsd @sharksaub00bage I must admit I did have fun looking for new bras but I still have the habit of squeezing the cups of each bra I look at to see how much padding is in the cup! It’s so funny as I always used to do that before when I was a 34b as I knew the less padding the worse the bra would make me look lol! And I still have that thought mentally installed except it is virtually impossible now to find heavily padded bras past a d cup… so I guess I had better get used to the fact I should no longer need heavy padded bras lol! Xxx

Sure accepted your request @pennelope x

Hope you don’t mind me adding you hun xox

I’m new to this site but seriously considering an op and your results look fab hun 🙂

They look great! Hope you don’t mind the add, I had my op 6 days ago xx

@lisa247 I had the same thing, mine don’t look absolutely massive yet I got measured in Boux Avenue as a 32F! Unexpected surprise 🙂 Getting fitted post op made me realise that I probably should have been in a 32b rather than a 34a pre op. I went round the shop squeezing the cups too lol and was like nah that one is way too padded.

That white bra is gorgeous btw!

They look amazing! Hope you don’t mind the add, I’m trying to decide what size to go with xx
