Bra size again plse help

[canyou]

I got measured today but feel they are wrong woman measured me with bra on but a badly fitting bra and told me I am a 32A or B depending on bra style/maker. The bra I bought is very uncomfortable and cvost ££. I am petit and have small boobs.
I measured myself when I came home so
Band is 29 inches
Breasts are 32 inches
So I think that means a b/c cup
Any help greatly received
TIA

I'd say that the band is too big and the cup too small. try a 28C/D and a 30B/C. I suspect the 28D will be the winner.

Thank you that was what I came up with also, I am child free tomorrow morning so may go and try on those sizes as the one I bought today is really wrong and not comfortable . But to be fair I was/have been wearing the wrong size for years I am doing a slow wardrobe clear out and am starting with underwear, it will be matching sets all the way from now on

If you put the new bra on back to front, how far can you pull the band away from your body? Wearing it the right way round, if you scoop is there overspill? Does the central gore lie flat?

Which bra did you by?

ok I can pull it a good 2 inches I would say
No over spill but the whole bra kind of gapes (sp?) but the cup is still full the straps are tight but not digging into the skin I need

The gaping cups is classic "my band is too big" behaviour. The band isn't providing enough support so the whole thing falls forward

dare I ask where you were fitted?

Debenhams The bra is really pretty I might try return it I offered to remove my own bra I did say I thought i was wearing the wrong size and she said no need What really stopped me buying more bras today was that she told my Dsis that breast feeding bras all come in D cups and nothing smaller

Sorry to hijack...

I measured myself the other day. 32" around the band, 37" across the breasts when I lean forward at 90 degrees.

Does that mean I'm a 32DD or 32E?

I have been wearing 36C.

And there we have the answer - debenhams fitting is very ropey - some stores have it sussed bbut others...not so much!

She was also gibbering a load of pish about breastfeeding bras - you might find it a bit tricky if you turn out to need say a 28C as they are as rare as rocking horse poop anyway, but chances are you will be even bigger cup wise when breastfeeding.

Right, I give up, what I am pasting is not what it's posting. look at nursing bras on figleaves, there are 35 listed under 32B!

Thank you StatisticallyChallenged.

Thank you so much I will send the link to Dsis

however if the same woman fitted your dsis she's probably not the size she said either

My sis did not get measured, she has leaking issues so padded her bra with pads

I have a wee query you lovely bra ladies.

I finally measured myself your recommended way. I am 28.5 inches underneath and 38 inches round my boobs. What on earth am I supposed to wear?

I've tried 32 bras, but they've always been really uncomfortable. I'm obviously not the 34D I thought I was!

Try a 28GG and similar sizes e.g. 28G, 30m etc. I think we can can safely say that you're not a 34D!

I am loving that I am a D cup in my local m&s cheapo bra thank you
