    Hi girls I’m 2 days post op and can’t seem to fund the right size sports bra .im curently wearing a 36e m&s zip up bra and I feel like a bit more support .so I ordered the same bra for next day delivery but in 36dd but the back has a bit of a gap and the cups have little wrinkles in ,funny as its a smaller cup than the one I have ?? Was wondering how tight they have to be ? Do you think I should go for a 34 e or 34dd don’t think I’m ready to leave the house yet xxx

    If you have a measuring tape take your underbust measurement and the fullest part and put them in to the bra calculator at

    http://www.sophisticatedpair.com/bracalculator.htm

    It’s the only calculator I find accurate and really recommend it! It will give you your *true* size as well as your *sister sizes*. Bra sizing is never really explained properly so often sister sizes ect are not understood. You will have your true size and will be given two other sizes that will fit and offer support if you prefer a tighter or looser band.

    The back band makes a huge difference in the cup it’s self, for example a 32E 34DD and a 36D are actually the same size in the cup, theres no difference in the *size* just in the length of the band. This is why we’re advised not to ask for an end cup size and rather a picture of what result we want.

    A 30DD and a 36DD are not the same size in the cup at all and all though the letters DD are there, they are totally different sizes.

    I hope this helps ^_^

    Hey girls. To be honest I got bored of guessing cup sizes etc as it seemed pretty impossible lol! I got a macom as its fully expandable so no cup size guessing – much easier xx
