    hi hun yeah agreed and was told same as twinkletoes lol. I had 240s 6 days ago now and i got a D sports bra and fits snug. Got 2 macom ones at the mo there the best , there a tad expensive but defo recommended.

    I also lived about an hour and half away from hospital and was a daycase but stayed at a hotel nearby for that night just incase xx

    i had 265’d and wearing 34d and 34c sports bra’s.. on my pre/post op advice sheet it says no drinking 2 days pre op and after antibiotics are finished post op, no wired bra’s fo 6 weeks. I went for my post op with the nurse on tuesday and she told me no swimming or even submerging my scars in the bath til i see my surgeon in 6 weeks (that’ll take me to 2 months post op). And usually bra’s are at 6 weeks but on my paperwork my surgeon has said sports bra for 4 weeks? not 6? so god knows! I think different surgeons have different rules but as a rough guide line its 6 weeks normally lol xx

    you can cahnge to a daycase but youll have to stay close to the hospital. i steayed in a hotel because it was a lot more comforatbel for me to be with my partner and a lot cheaper than a hospital stay! xx
