because this may be the reason why I'm not ever getting fitted properly.

I am a prude.

I had my norks hoiked up for my spray tan so she could get underneath them, mortifying.

If you are measured with your boobs squidged in your bra then it isn't going to be overly accurate is it?

i'm sure you could say that you're nervous, then they'll be sure to make sure you're comfortable about everything. it is their job to make you feel brilliant about yourself, seriously. and you will.

EccentricaGallumbits · 26/05/2009 22:15

perhaps will have to have gin for lunch some day then stagger orf to bra shop.

maybe.

lol, i lifted my own boobs after it became apparent that no amount of 'stretching up to the ceiling' would detach them from my rib cage.

hobbgoblin · 26/05/2009 22:16

What about putting those nipple guard things over your nipples then you wouldn't feel totally naked?

btw i was nervous about getting naked in front of them as well, it's really not something we do is it? but it was NOTHING in the end.

AitchTwoOh · 26/05/2009 22:19

btw re fishie's post... isn't eccentrica gallumbits the triple breasted whore of somewhere or other? is this the problem?

ClaireDeLoon · 26/05/2009 22:20

I find my confidence boosted after I've been, you get pretty underwear, that looks fantastic (try your top on again in the cubicle, you will be amazed at the transformation) and some sexy matching knickers. You won't feel bad at all, really. They don't want you to feel like that. And if you don't like the style/colour they have fitted you with SAY SO, they will bring you alternatives more like you wanted.

BoysAreLikeDogs · 26/05/2009 22:20

yy, I first went to R and P after I had finished feeding, and me boobs were all sad and spaniely

I had a girly weekend with my v best mate in Tooting and she marched me uptown to R and P

AitchTwoOh · 26/05/2009 22:21

i never buy sexy knickers. i don't do down-below sexy. lol.

EccentricaGallumbits · 26/05/2009 22:21

AitchTwoOh · 26/05/2009 22:22

They. Have. Seen. Fat. Before.

BoysAreLikeDogs · 26/05/2009 22:23

Honestly, it will not be a problem, I promise you

AnybodyHomeMcFly · 26/05/2009 22:23

Eroticon 6 I believe. C'mon Eccentrica you can't be that much of a prude if you picked that name!!

ClaireDeLoon · 26/05/2009 22:25

OK if it is just me who buys the knickers how come they never have them my size eh? And also, given I have a large arse why are they so keen to offer me a g-string instead of the comfy shorts option? Oh hang on, its because they haven't sold the large arse sized G-strings. Duh.

EccentricaGallumbits · 26/05/2009 22:26

am a bird of two very different halfs.

one - i'm a triple breasted whore from eroticon 6. i have big hair, wear PVC and thigh high boots. with heels.

two - is someone too prudish and cunky to get a bra fitted.

but I might. one of these days. I really might do it..

OP posts:
AitchTwoOh · 26/05/2009 22:54

you really should.

JamesAndTheGiantBanana · 26/05/2009 23:13

This has always stopped me getting properly measured too, I'm a blimp overweight and I always wondered how they measured you accurately if your boobs are really saggy because all the guides say to measure around the fullest part of the breast - HAH!

But cupped hands? Oh, the horror.
