My chrio always made me hurt worse for days and days after a visit to him. I felt worse coming out than going in *every* time I saw him and I went for quite a while. Perhaps that was just him being a bad doctor I don't know but I did not enjoy what he did nor did I feel good, or better after.

I do not see how the old snap and twist means a wrong size bra, it's been one of the ways to put on bra's forever, and it's the only way I can get mine on alone, other wise it's mooooooooooooooooooooom will you hook my bra please lol.

Most females are wearing the wrong size bra, hence so much pain for anything above a C cup out there. I don't know if you know them, so I'll mention a few of the most common signs of a wrong bra fit: if you can put snap it in front and twist it around to the back,

If it can be twisted easily around the body like that, there is too much slack in the band to fully support the weight of the breasts, allowing the back to ride up over time and the straps to take some of the breast weight.

I'm not sure I get this, I always put my bra on so the closure is in front. Hook it, then slide it around my back and on. I can't hook one that is already behind my back lol, so does that mean that my bra is wrong? Yes, they alllllllll ride up the back and I do know that part is wrong lol.
I do not like my boobies :(

Yep, if you can twist it and it's riding up in back, the bra size is wrong. Your band size is too large!

I know you said that you're too modest to be topless in front of the fitter, but would being seen in only a bra make you too uncomfortable? If so, once you find a good fitter you can just let her know and have her leave the room while you switch from one to another..

cjenny, I was measured for bra's and it drove me nuts cause she said I was a 40 c not a 44 to 48 DD but the 40 c's were all to large, so go with what feels more factual in some cases.

when I get fitted I am wearing my bra and she measures across the boobies in the middle and reads it

*blushes* Egads I feel stupid for having to ask, so thankyou FelinePersuasion. It is time for me to invest in a couple of proper bras as well & I just needed to know how it happened lol.

I don't know where you get fitted but I have never been topless or had the fitter help me in and out of them and test tension and check the things you mentioned.

When mine was done it went like this:

The woman and I went into the dressing room, I took of my incorrectly-fitting bra and she took a look at me. She estimated my size and brought multiple bras near that sizeback and helped me in and out of each to establish which fit and supported correctly in each style (full coverage, demi, etc.. you know).

Okay I stillllllllllll don't get it lol. If it is hooked and slid around the body why would that mean it is incorrect sizing? The only way it wouldn't slide is if it were super super tight.
Yes I could do the 'bra on modest' route once I psyched myself up for it lol. Imagine me when it's time for my gyno appointment LOL.
Now I think I may call and ask how it is done prior to going for a fitting!

Thanks both you and FP

Don't go to places like Victoria's Secret, especially, or similar if you are in the US. Many shops will fit you in a way aiming to make you fit into a bra-size they sell. Make sure you go somewhere that has a wide range of sizes available (a good way to check is to see if they have a good number of sizes above DD available, even if you're smaller than a DD) and that is not trying to sell you a bra at that moment. If the fitter seems unsure, get someone else to help or try another store.

Victoria's Secret tried to tell me I was a DD. I laughed at them.

If you've some disability, I can understand the issue and we have to do what we can, I know. But if not, it's a matter of learning. You have the option of wearing too-loose bands that do not give full support, if learning to hook behind is not of interest. It is your comfort, I'm giving the correct information so that people can work it into their lives as best they can.

It means the band is too loose. It should fit like a second skin: not constricting, but not free to move and twist. The trick is finding a band that hugs correctly without being too snug. Most females where too large a band size and the first time you wear a properly fitted one it is likely to feel oddly snug. Give it about 5 minutes are so to adjust to the new feel and if it continues to feel too tight then you need to adjust the band size upwards. Sometimes this means having to get a band extender to create a non-standard size, as some are between the normal band sizes (36 too loose, 34 feels too tight, that sort of thing). It can be tricky if it does turn out your not fitting into the preset ribbands! :)

That is the correct manner to be fitted. If you've simply been measured and had them hand things to you, then you weren't properly fitted for a bra.

Part of the reason for a fitting is that most females are never taught how to correctly fit a bra and are repeatedly buying those with too large of bands and too small of cups (other combinations occur, but that's the most common mix).

A quality fitter will check:

Ribband: make sure the female is not squeezing themselves into too small a band or using too large a one by checking it's tension, back-riding, breathing space, the flat fit of the bit between the breasts (can't remember what it's called at the moment), and (if appicable) that the underwires are not too closely or widely spaced for the placement of the breasts on the female's ribcage.

Straps: proper tension, that they are not carrying the breast weight, their placement in relation to the ribcage and shoulders of the female

Cups: placement on the ribcage, that the female knows how to fit her breasts in correctly (seems like this would be obvious, i know, but some do not); looks for the signs of ill-fitting cups such as gapping, wrinkling, bulging (over, between or out the side of the cups).

Over-all movement: that twisting, bending over, and a bit of jostling doesn't cause slipping from, bouncing of the breasts, or any pinching from wires or elastic.

Oh! And weighing in on the lose-weight, lose-breastmass discussion.

True it often does equal out, but not always... I gain a cup size every time I lose 10-15lbs. My breasts stay the same size if I stay the same weight or gain, but if I lose they get larger. Not as in look-proportionally-larger, as in overflowing-my-old-bras. I started as a C cup, then started losing weight... Now here I am lol!

I'm not a spy from Victorias Secret or anything... lol... just because I happen to love one of their bras I mentioned earlier, but, I will say I did hear one sales woman look at another woman after measuring her, and say that they don't carry a bra in the womans size. I was impressed that she told her so (maybe se was new? LOL) and turned her away instead of just trying to make a sale. And, yes, I saw her measure her over her clothes, I know that was wrong!

I personally have never had myself fitted for one, even though I'm a DD, but, I don't have any of the problems anybody has described either, so, I think I'm doing ok... and I don't have that 4 boob problem.. (i.e., the extra poking out the top)... Guess I got lucky.

Someday, if I feel more comfortable about it and have the money to spend, I'll try out some of the specialty fitting bras.

Thank you all for the information, it has been an informative read.
