JACQELINERT will become famous soon enough
Going braless before you drop?

Does anyone think it might be a problem to go braless, but just wear my compression strap and nip covers, until I drop? (I know afterwards I will want to wear a bra to avoid sagging.)

The strap flattens my upper pole so I look more natural in clothes, and going braless is more comfy and a cleaner line under clothes.

I have full unders and strong pecs from working out. My PS doesn't care if I wear my compression strap at this point. He just says "it can't hurt." He didn't tell me to wear a sports bra but maybe he just assumed I would.

What do you think?

I've been braless from the beginning. My PS actually prefers it!

I don't think it would hurt to not wear a bra. HOWEVER, you should ask your ps just to be on the safe side.

I know we've had a laugh over this lately, and I think u should square it up with ur ps.... as they all have different views. I went for my first post op today, he told me I was done, whats there is what i live with. so, no more sports bra for me now ! plus i dont have to wear a bra to bed anymore,! he could see my excitement, and explained i have to be careful about sagging, obviously as i continue to age, sagging will happen a bit, so i can now wear underwires. But , that was completely different to 'apparaently'wot he told a girl i know, she told me Id have to wear the sports bra for 12 weeks, and always and forever wear a bra to bed ! So, check it out with him, as he will know best your situation !

That's a really good point, Anne. I keep thinking my PS has a particular opinion on everything, but really he may be adapting his opinions depending on the patient. It's always best to ask.

Are you happy with your "done" look?

Well TBH i was tad disappointed today, thinking i would drop a little more, and for some very strange reason, imagined i would grow ! But tonight, i have been playing with my bras again, and trying on some tops, and im happy again, i will prob take some pics of some of the tops for my yahoo group, just to show that small implants can go quite a long way !one top i tried on tonight, i had 'showed' to bf and daughter a while back, thinkin i could maybe wear it out clubbin, both their opinions were it was too revealing, so i didnt wear it, now playing tonight i tried it on again, showed my daughter, and she says " wow mum u gotta wear that " so, hesitantly , i showed martin, he thought it looked stunning but aired his concerns about how ppl will stare at my boobs ! he knows that when we're out, im right by his side, im not the type to promote "hey guys, im over here" i dont have the desire or confidence to be like that, but, i must admit, i like to shyly 'show' wot i have, so yeah ,ive waffled now, considering i cant wear a bra with this top, its amazing now ive got some boob, how the opinions have changed on it ! im gonna go bra shopping soon, i have to, im very limited on my new bras, and need that boost to feel betta about myself !

First off, I don't think the PSs actually fully realize that we often drop or fill in more after 3-6 months. They don't see us that often after that and don't look close or compare progression photos. So you may still have some changes to come that will fluff you out fuller. My PS told me I would drop fully in one month. Hah.

But actually, it sounds like all you need now is to discover what a good bra can do and HAVE FUN PLAYING. Congratulations on being at that stage. I can't wait til I am too! LOL

BTW in your pics you don't seem small at all to me so I do think body image is a tricky thing. It'll be fun to hear whether you start to feel "just perfect" in the next couple of months.

jacqueline

awww thanks, u had unders though didnt you ? U GOTTA BE MORE PATIENT ! they take a lot longer , but u get good results ! yeah, im gonna look for some nice bras that make me feel good about myself ! Ive often said on here, n i really mean it, pics dont always show whats really there ! I know I do kinda have an image problem, cos my bf really likes slimness, and he always tells me he likes my figure, but when i see pics of myself i think i look bigger and when i look in the mirror i see that too, not massivley but i do see bigger. so, I can only speak of my pics, cos i know my boobs, but pics really can be deceiving, angle of taking the pic makes a huge difference too. i think i might buy some sexy see thru camis or whatever they're called, i like the idea of them, ive never been able to wear them before, we all get there in the end jacqueline, its just different timescale cos we've all had the ba done slightly different ways xxxxxxxxxxxx

natthebug is on a distinguished road
have to remember too, it took us how many kids for some of us just years and age for others otf us worrying about sagging how many did it take to get there? me 3 kids and I am 32, didn't start getting books until I was like 13 so it took me 19 years and3 kids to get a sagging a cup ( how the hell can an A cup sag?????? . So anyways my point is going bralessnow considering none of us are really that big.. ESP if you did not need a lift, I think it really isn't that big of a deal. I have been almost completely bra less since my last apt! i bought a bra today for some shirts that NEED a bra just to not look ridiculous... but if i can get away with it I won;t wear one either! I say free those suckers UP!!!
I do know that girls who have had lifts are more told to keep them supported probably has to do with their body and skinds tendency to sag more.. and also there are a couple girls on here That are very large that i couldnt imagine going w/out a bra... But you'd have to ask her specifically... Tonya ( blondegirl) has 36FF, I am curious now to ask her if she can go bra less.... hmmm

oh anyways rambling again sorry
