Not really, I gave up and custom ordered a crop/sports bra from Colieco Lingerie as her lingerie is made from scuba jersey, which is quite firm. But I found that doubling up on Calvin Klein crops, wearing my usual size m and the smaller size s over it works well enough to support me in the interim as I only lift weights at the gym. The frustration with bras is making me feel a bit like I went too big ? hopefully this feeling will resolve once I've got prettier bras as I'm a massive fan of lingerie and wearing these ck crops all the time is making me feel too unsparkly! Another brand I'm

Yeah they are massive hahaha. I love it! I wear wireless bras/bralettes but with my new chest additions I worked with the designer to add supportive elements to make sure my boobies age well. I've got an order with a new designer I'm trying out so I will let you girls know how I go but if any one wants to try her out, her brand is ColieCo lingerie. Bralettes are a lot more forgiving with size fluctuations as I think I might not be at my final size- shape yet. You're almost there @JD* !! Pretty boobies soon!

Well, after my 6 week check up I have now completely given up on buying bras from stores. I v'e always purchased made to measure bras online and I have decided I will continue to do so as they are in fact cheaper than anything I can find in person and are of better quality. I did get sized while I was in Sdyney at Brava Lingerie, and have to thank them for their incredible help...I'm a size 8F apparently lol. Goes to show you can't trust a tape measure for a 3D object as every bra fits differently.... Anyhow, I am in total love with my boobs, Dr Tav did an amazing job and I love them more

Both wired and non-wired I've tried, the stretchy crops are still the most comfortable to wear everyday as the cups on non wired don't stretch much so the t-shirt bras I tried weren't fitting right too. I am still quite firm so you are right ; I've resigned myself to wearing ck crops for the next few months? Yes, I believe mary holland stocks panache so I'm keen to give them a visit when I head to Sydney. I would be almost 7 weeks by then and I can start properly going to the gym if Dr Tav gives the all clear. So the main problem is finding that sports bra. I'm itching to go back to exerc

I'm going to be 6 weeks PO on monday, will probably go get sized at Mary Holland in Sydney when I fly in for my 6 week appointment. I still haven't been able to get my hands on a comfortable sports bra that doesn't feel like it's going to suffocate me and squeeze my boobs so tightly I feel like they are going to burst lol. No one seems to make anything past a 10DD/E and while I can fit in some I feel they might actually do more harm than good. Have you had any luck in finding a sports bra? I heard the brand panache is good for big boobs with small bands but I haven't been able to find anywhere

@WambuidarlingI did end up getting Motiva ergonomix with Dr Tav, as my anatomy was suitable for both round and anatomical implants. Motiva has been used for a while outside Australia and seems to have a very good reputation which was why I wanted them. I'm 4 weeks post op right now and they are getting softer every week, will be really squishy by the time they have fully settled I think. I had a lovely experience with Dr Tav and his staff are so wonderful too. Dr Tav really knows what he is doing and my breasts look great even this early on. I recommend him 100% as he has given me e

@JD* congrats! You must be so excited!!! So I'm 2 1/2 weeks post op and just got the go ahead to start lower body workouts next week. I went to get sized for a new sports bra/normal bras and I measured a 10E ? I'm extremely happy as that was my requested size, but also a bit worried that they might actually turn out bigger than expected after D & F.... 10F is not a usual size found in stores... I also looked massive in underwire bras which I can wear in 2 weeks but I think I'll pass on them for now as I prefer the look and feel of wireless bras both pre-op and post op, wired bras are

Yay for new boobies! I'm glad you don't have much pain xx Active recovery is definitely a top recommendation, muscle movement is what gets the lymphatic system circulating, flushing and removing excessing fluid and waste products, which brings the swelling down in your body while you are healing P.s, It's why we girls get morning boob cause we don't move much during the night lol

Sending lots of love for your surgery today @teatime and @Mumma_S!

@DiamondC I have 475cc corse motiva ergonomix I believe my BWD is 11cm, so with my implants they are 11.75cm base width so I'll get lots of side boob. I have a very narrow clevage line too so I think they are going to look really fabulous once they've dropped. I'm only 157cm and 52kg, so I got massive boobies haha. I'm having the worst day today... I fly back home in a few hours and the journey to the airport has been terrible having to deal with my luggage. I'm lucky everyone has been kind and helpful. The lady manning the check-in placed me up front and in an aisle seat since I told h

Thanks for explaining hun xx I also have extra high profiles I think, the motiva corse, so I know they can look lovely I happen to love side boob so that's probably a difference in our aesthetic choices. Best of luck with your surgery in October, I know the wait is torture but you will soon have your new, wonderful and beautiful boobies ❤❤❤

Who is your surgeon DiamondC? I find it surprising that he would leave a 2cm gap between your BWD and the implant base as I thought that the recommended technique is not to go 1cm wider or narrower on either side. I'm just picturing victoria beckham's first set of implants...Wouldn't that leave an extremely large space inbetween your clevage? And with the UHP, isn't there chance that you'll get torpedo boobies? ? I'm sorry to question it, but it doesn't sound quite right to me!

@MissS Please always go with a qualified plastic surgeon, they have trained for years and years for this type of surgery. I would say surgeons might not always have the greatest bedside manner, but what matters the most is that in the operating room they are the best and most skilled at what they do. You are paying them top dollar for their skill, training and experience in the surgery of choice, not their bedside manner. I wouldn't trust my breasts in the hands of a cosmetic surgeon, not for something so life changing and with such a high risk of disfigurement. There are many horror stories o

@Mumma_S Just as @I HaveBoobs and @JD* said, once you get past the first 3 days you'll be much better If you're staying in the hospital that's better and I'm sure they will make sure you are well taken care of. I was discharged on the day of surgery and only had an overnight nurse with me who left the morning after, so the past few days I've been dealing with everything on my own since I'm an interstate patient Once you're out just make sure you're on top of the pain meds, don't wait till it hurts before you take something, it would be too late by then. I wrote down all the timings

It's related to the endone, it's a really strong opioid for use only for serious pain but has a side effect of giving you constipation. I've used it for 3 days and I'm trying to wean off to only night time use since it can be addictive. I'm on valium, panadol and antibiotics atm, alternating the valium and panadol. Valium is a muscle relaxer so it does help a lot. I'm not sure why he's not prescribing more pain killers, I can tell you it bloody hurts like f*ck the first 2 days, especially at night and right in the morning. You'll want to get up and walk it off as soon as possible so the lympha
