What bra size am I?

I had Breast implants 6 weeks ago and I went into bravissimo today and the lady refused to measure me as I haven't had a sign off from my consultant, I don't see him until 8 weeks. I was just intrigued really as to what size I am now, not planning on buying any bras just yet. Anyway, I have been reading the bra intervention thread and I have tried measuring myself using the method and I have concluded that I am 34' under bust and 42' over. What size should this make me? My consultant said he expected me to be a c cup.

Try boob or bust online

A C cup would be 3 inches between under and over measurements so your consultant is very wrong

Your consultant is wrong!

Measure yourself using boob or bust.

According to boob or bust I am a 34f Shock. I am off to try a bra of that size on tomorrow to test it as I am not convinced 😅.

According to my consultant I didn't even fit into a size bracket before at all as I had a tuberous Breast deformity so I am ever so slightly pleased Grin

That's a 34FF or 34G (some ranges do an FF before the G while others go F then G).

Presumably you are still swollen, if so that won't be the final size.

A c cup with a 34 underbust measurement would be an overbust measurement of 37. Your surgeon was way off the mark Sad I hope you're happy with the resultFlowers

Very glad to hear you're happy with the results!

They will carry on changing size for up to 6 months and still need to drop and fill out a bit so I may have to go through this a few times as I change size!

Another vote for Boob or Bust (website and facebook page). Just remember that M&S are still measuring with the +4 method which is SO outdated and wrong! If you measure a 34 underband then you are a 34" bra not a 38!
