Taking the Leap! 23 Years Old, 120 lbs, 32DD/32DDD to Hopeful 32B/32C

Got approved for underwire bras again! Yay! However, Covid made it a bit difficult to go bra shopping. I really wasn’t sure what size I was. I ended up at a Victoria’s Secret (I’m a creature of habit I suppose) and they fitted me at a “Victoria’s Secret size” 32C! I’m very happy with these results! I would guess I’m a 32b at most department stores. The attached pictures are in a 32C Victoria’s Secret bra. Maybe one of these updates I’ll remember to take pictures in the day with GOOD lighting, but in the meantime, sorry for the lighting quality!
My scars are still pretty red so trying some silicone strips to help with the Mederma and vitamin E oil I’ve already been using daily.

Everything has been going super well the past couple of weeks. I did have 2 sutures “pop” perhaps 4 weeks ago. They felt a bit painful and looked a bit like a blood blister. When they popped a tiny bit of suture stuck out of them. I called my doctor and was told to give it a bit of a tug with a tweezers. One came right out, the other took a bit longer. I wasn’t too fond of that whole process, it makes me want to pass out having to deal with that sort of thing, but those “trouble spots” are all healed up nicely now! I did take a lake vacation 2 weeks ago and avoided going in past my waist to still be careful for any infection in case there were any other slight openings where sutures might be making their way out. Better to be safe than sorry!

Also, still no underwire bras until I get cleared after my mid-August appointment, but I would guess I’m a 34C after doing a bit of swimsuit shopping! Which, by the way, was so fun and exciting! I could actually fit into the same size top and bottom! And, get this, I can even wear strapless/bandeaus now, no problem!

Tape is all off! Saw my doctor yesterday and everything is healing great! She said this will pretty much be their size as I don’t seem to have too much swelling, but of course, they’ll continue to change slightly in shape/size as they continue to heal over the next few months. No underwire bras until 2 more months, but other than that I’m cleared to start slowly getting back to the gym and can wear whatever sports bra or bralatte is most comfortable (or none at all!) I’m also cleared to start scar treatment. I put some vitamin E on last night but will probably pick up something more at the store later.
