Hello Hsm,Welcome to BCO! There is a thread on the boards which is "all things bras and prosthesis" which has a lot of information on many different forms and clothing etc.

There are a number of swim forms and leisure forms available. Probably the most common ones we discuss here are the Amoena Swimform, which is a clear silicone which doesn't show through a swimsuit. It is about the same weight as your normal form and can get a bit sticky in the warm weather. There is a micro bead filed form by Tru Life called Aqua Flo which dries quickly and can be worn as a leisure form when you don't want to wear your normal silicone form. There is another very popular leisure form, from Tru Life which is a weighted foam breast form, It isn't something you can wear in a swimsuit, but it is very comfortable in an athletic crop bra top or tank. Take a look at metromedicalonline, they are probably one of the least expensive sites have great sales and they sell each of these forms.

There is a site called mastectomysolutions.org which is run by a lovely lady named Mary, she has patterns for making your own micro bead forms, or she will do it for you and post for a very nominal amount. They work well in a swimsuit.T

The shower puff method that 70 charger mentioned, is to unravel the puff, then wind it loosely around your hand to make the size you want. They do work, but the lack of weight can be an issue, especially if you don't have a pocketed suit. They can ride up and out of your suit!

All the best, just ask if you have any other questions, there are many of us who have done lots of research on different forms and clothing.
