Hi everyone! I decided to share my journey since reading so many others on here has helped me so much! So a little background, I am 23 and have been wanting an augmentation since I was 16. I waited it out hoping they would grow or that me wanting them was a phase but after 7 years I am deciding to go through with it and I couldn't be more excited!! I am doing 400 in my right and 350 in my left. My doctor chose to go over the muscle due to the fact that I have enough breast tissue and because of the way my rib age is he is worried they will slide off to the side significantly when I lay down if he were to go under the muscle. I was a little concerned about going over because not many people go over but after discussing my concerns with my doctor and researching I feel way better!! I am currently a 32d which sounds big but it is not. I worked for Victoria's Secret for 4 years and if there is one thing I can suggest before your consultation it is go in to VS and get measured so you can understand your actual size and have them explain sizing to you!!! Everyone thinks there's just one standard a, b, c, d cup etc but there is not!! For example a 32dd is the same CUP size as a 34D, only difference being band size is bigger around,so when you just say you want a full D cup there's several different D cup sizes which vary dramatically. Many women would come in to get sized after BA's and end up being a 32dd and would be like omg I only wanted to be a 34D not a double d which I then explain that they are the exact cup size they wanted they just didn't realize they are a 32 around which changes the cup size letters.I posted a pic to help explain but it is very important you understand bra sizing to fully understand what size you want!

Thank you! I just went into VS to get a sports bra that was similar to my post-op training bra (I am about 2 weeks post-op). The VS here on Maui just opened and they were so helpful! I just wish they explained to me what 34D was like you just did on this post. This was very helpful.

That's really interesting to see the cup sizes like that! I don't think many women realise the differences between the sizes.

Yes working at Victoria's Secret for 4 years I was amazed how many women didn't understand bra sizing and it is soo important!

You are right about that! One thing I have wondered about is why VS only go down to a 32 band size. I'm sure I'm not the only 30 band sized women who wished I could buy VS bras, they are so nice. I still buy the nickers and bikinis and I love those as well.

Yes I hope they start carrying 30 band. Certain styles from the pink brand you can order online in 30!
