36 Y/o, 5'5" 121 lbs, Breastfed 3 Kids, 34a to 34c/d, 339/371cc silicone unders - NJ

No time for pics right now. I just wanted to post a quick update. I am so thrilled with my decision. I love my boobs. I loved wearing a bikini during our winter vacations. I was already a confident person, but this has really made an improvement in my life. It is so much easier getting dressed now. Things hang correctly and just look better. I have ordered bras online and found that a 34d usually fits the best. It depends on the bra. I had one 32ddd that also fit. Overall, I think I'm the perfect size. I don't look big in clothes. But I definitely do look plentiful in a bikini.

My kids haven't said a word. They are oblivious to the change so I'm happy I did this while they are still young.

I am a freak about having them in a bra at all times. Hubby is getting annoyed saying he saw my boobs naked way more before surgery. Lol. I sleep in a super comfy stretchy seamless bra I ordered from Amazon in a bunch of different colors. One night I had a hard time sleeping and kept waking up. I finally realized that I went to bed tipsy and hadn't put on my sleep bra after showering. I actually had to get up and put it on in order to sleep.

My sensation is still not 100% back in my left breast, but it has slowly improved. My scars are no longer bumpy feeling. They are smooth, but I still have redness and discoloration. I will definitely get them lasered if they are still noticeable after a year.

My boobs somehow seem bigger now. This week I started loving my size again - whatever size that is. If anyone has suggestions for the most accurate bra sizer, please let me know (see my previous post).

I am still aware of them especially at night when I turn to sleep on my side. Otherwise, life is back to normal and if I do a lot, I might have a little bit of soreness. I absolutely love my boobs. My right one has really started dropping and is almost at the place I want it. I think I've dropped pretty quickly. I'm sure wearing the strap for so long has helped. Now I'm just worried about bottoming out. If anyone has a sleep bra they love, please send me your suggestions.

I had a post op visit this week and I just have to gush about how much I love my PS. He truly is amazing. I am so thrilled that we picked him for my surgery. I think I could have gotten nice results elsewhere, but I would never have the same comfort level that I do with my PS and his staff. He gets me and that is invaluable.

Now for a rant. How in the world am I supposed to figure out what bra size I am? I have to wear a bra to hold my left breast up along with the strap to push my right breast down. So I've been wearing old 34c bras that I wore while pregnant. I feel it's a bit snug. So I ran into Victoria's Secret and asked to be measured really quick before I ran to pick up kids from school so I could at least order some bras online. OMG! I almost got violent. She measured me as a 32b. What!??!! I told her 3 times that I'm wearing a 34c and I think it might be snug. So then she's like well you are borderline 32b/c. Huh? The sister size of 34c is 32d. Not 32b/c. Seriously? I almost screamed. So I ran home and started looking for bra calculators online. They are a mess! VS tells me I'm a 32b so at least now I know the girl was just spewing the screwed up info that VS gives her. Another website told me I'm a 28g. Another one said I'm a 32ddd/f. I just need bras!!!! What size am I supposed to order? This is driving me nuts. Can anyone please offer any guidance? I'd like to at least have a ballpark size and then I'll order a bunch of different ones from amazon since they have free return shipping on whatever I don't like. Does anyone know of anywhere else that offers free shipping and returns on bras? I know some ladies have really liked the Nordstrom bra department. I am planning on going there in person to be sized, but it's insane with the holidays so I don't see myself making it there without my kids for another couple weeks. Any help or suggestions you ladies can offer would be great!
