My new size C cups

cb123

Good morning,

I've been hanging around the forum because I had some tests yesterday and of course, cancer on the brain. (not literally, just figuratively.) But I also went to be fitted for prosthetic bosoms this week.

I decided to go with a C cup. I always liked being a C when I was young and fabulous (20 years ago - I am currently old and fabulous.) I've had some pretty huge bosoms lately. I believe 13 pounds worth came off during surgery. More trouble than they were worth.

The bras are prettier in that smaller size and it was almost like saying, "Hello old friend" when I found the one I liked.

We began with size a 7 silicone prosthetic. Now I'm having flat girl issues and I like it! It's like a whole new world for me.

Size 7 didn't fill out the cup and there was extra bra fabric. Odd for me, I always seemed to snugly fill a cup. So we jumped to size 9, still a little leftover cup fabric but not as bad.

I like a tunic over rayon pants. It's almost like wearing PJs but socially acceptable. The pants fabrics seem to have all the designs and the tops seem to be solid colors (shows off the necklaces). This style draws a LOT of attention to my newly flattened chest. I thought a little foob might make me more comfortable. I'm fine in my shirts that have a lot of colorful design to the fabric, it's quite distracting.

Here's a link to the prosthetics I'm getting. Pretty basic, no nipples. They'll probably stay in the closet more than in my bra. they seem heavy? Amoena 290 Essential Basic 2S Breast Form

I'm actually looking forward to customizing my bras with micro-bead filler. I'm practicing this weekend with my pre-op swimwear. Filling those cups with micro-beads. It's going to be an interesting new world of foobs & no foobs.

I hope you all are enjoying your day.
