I just ordered two over the internet ... they are hot milk brand and tagged 10g and 10ff and are just a whisker too small in the cup but I'm on the 3rd hook of the band, so right in the middle of the hooks. They cut in around the armpit side too, but not dramatically.

The bras I have here are tagged 12f (but taken in at the back and so old the band is so loose it practically falls off me), a 32gg and 34g, all of which are much too big in the cup and all only the 32 fits in the band. But they are different brands.

Hot milk doesn't come any bigger than this - I could go to a 12 but I'm likely to lose a lot of weight and a 12 won't fit.

Do I return the hot milk ones and try again with another brand, or put up with them because I am likely to lose weight? I am almost 10kg overweight, I'm fitting into size 12 stuff at the moment. Bras are expensive so it is a real tossup whether to get bigger ones that still might not fit, or stick with these but have nothing that fits for a bit longer.

I can't go into a shop and try them on, its mail order or nothing. The shop is in Adelaide so the other half can pop in tomorrow and exchange them if need be, but he only visits Adelaide fortnightly.
