Wow you must have quite a collection now!  We tend to have shallow breasts and some brands suit us better than others.  Wacoal and Chantelle bras often fit our bodies well.  There is an enormous range of bras out there and some significant variations in sizes too. Take your time and enjoy your new hobby.

Not only did I try the swoop and scoop but the sales associate assisted to no avail.  

On the one hand it seems my growth has been slow to fill out my bras, but then i remember the plastic surgeon i went to said my right breast didn’t need surgery for Gynecomastia, only the left breast.  Wonder what he would say today?  Oh wait, he’s never going to get the opportunity to see me again!  

Still managed to find 5 more bras to increase my daily choices depending on my mood. ;-)

Did you swoop and scoop your breast tissue into the cups? It makes a massive difference and over time you may get tissue migration which will reduce your band size and increase your cup size. You will eventually become fuller on top.

Darn!  I tried another underwire.  Just not enough on top to make a different style work.  But I think I’ll have to add to “what I’m wearing today”  or maybe start a new string over there.

I am noticing my night vision changing & I think the cataracts are coming on.

Thanks gents,
I’ll have to do a repeat soon. The breasts have slowly changed due to the administration of prednisone. I have put some weight on.

Prednisone will do that.  While it works, it has significant side effects.  I had asthma return after 50 years.  I ballooned.  That probably began my chest development as the events coincided.  I wasn't on it for very long.  Mostly during the winter, over several years.  On Advair now as a maintenance, so occasionally use Prednisone when the influenza vaccine doesn't work.  Nevertheless, they still are growing slowly.  I don't have the soreness nor sensitive nipples so not a big issue for me.

Nice pic.  You look good in that shirt.  I need to figure out resizing pics on my iPhone.  

After being diagnosed in 2011, I did get a bra fitting in 2014.  I tried on a number of suggestions.  Wire and molded cups.  They all made them look huge.  

I use a spaghetti strap sports uni-bra that works well to look like I have pecks.  I also wear a plaid work shirt over a grey undershirt.  When my shirts are tucked in to my jeans, even that doesn't completely hide the chest.  I am now a 42C, 34" waist.  Since the straps are small and the back has no hooks, I feel comfortable with hugs and such.

For me, it is concealment.

As I told my sales associate at my boutique, I didn’t know buying bras would be so addictive!  I think I’ll go get another underwire one.
