Did she just say C or D?

Courtney is getting married on Saturday and I am in the wedding. I picked up my dress yesterday and I needed a new strapless bra because of the dip in the back. I headed up to Nordstroms because I love the place and all of the articles I read say they do a great job fitting you with a new bra. Now keep in mind for over a year I have been wearing either a nursing tank top or a nursing bra so I haven't worn a 'real bra' in over a year.

I got to the intimates department and explained to the woman that I have a dress where the normal strapless bra just won't work because the back is somewhat open. So we went through the options and then I said I don't know what size I am because I have been nursing but I am thinking B because I was an A before. So those of you that know me know that I was probably barely an A - I probably should have just been shopping in the juniors department for a started bra. Anyway. She goes in the dressing room with me and helps me try on bras - little weird but I have gotten over the whole naked thing for the most part. B doesn't fit, C is a bit tight - so she says you may be a D. I made a weird face at this point. So she explained to me that it isn't the cup size it is where the under wire hits your boob. So this is what they mean in those articles about most women don't know their correct bra size!? I am now officially one of them!

So I walked out of there with a nice new size C bra for the wedding thinking - I guess I will be back here in a couple of months when nursing is over to get all new bras! I feel cheated that I am going to have to throw away hundreds of dollars of my existing bras and buy hundreds of dollars of new bras! Somehow I feel like this is a scam. Oh well. I always wanted to be something other than an A, now that I am there I find myself thinking - why can't I just go back to that!
