    I have a silly question.

    Your username is "cupwanter". That implies that you want, don't need, a cupped bra.

    How did you determine that you're a b cup? You stated that you measured. What source did you use to determine your cup size after you measured?

    We get a lot of questions like yours. Most of the posters don't need a bra, they want one because all their friends have one. Is that the case here?

    Well, I suffered the same. My mom didn't even noticed that I really needed a bra when I was 12. I'm 16 now and I'm still uncomfortable with my mom on the issues like bra's and periods. I just went shopping and picked up bra's for myself because I knew my mom's never going to speak that so easily to me :/ Go shopping, pick up the right ones :)

    What type of meter? The only way I know of to tell cup size, is to try on bras of different cup sizes to see what fits best. You can measure the size of your chest, that's easy, But cup size is a different matter.

    See was that so hard? Remember your mom went through the same thing when she was your age. So she understands. Unless she sees you in the bras you currently wear, she isn't going to know that you are outgrowing what you have unless you tell her.

    Hmm, I just did some research and while there are methods to approximate what cup size you are (like here Bra Fitting - How to Measure Bra Size), I couldn't find anything about a meter to do so.

    So basically, don't go by whatever you used to measure, its probably not accurate. When mom takes you to the store, try on several sizes to see what fits. Also, as far as I know, cup sizes vary by manufacturer and style. So you might need a B for one style but an A for a different style.

    You can get a reasonable sense of the measurement of the bra, but the cup is tricky. Measure around your ribcage, under your breasts, to determine the size of the bra (32, 38, etc) but the cup will pretty much be trial and error, finding one that fits.

    I hate bra shopping. I'm a 32F, so I can't go to a department store to buy a bra. Most specialty shops don't even have my size, I usually end up having to get a larger bra (36 or 38) and then doing alterations. My bras, on sale, cost around $100 each. :(

    Don't be too eager to get bigger. I'd kill to be a B cup. :)

    I'm 42. When I was your age I had no breasts to speak of, didn't even need a training bra. Before I had kids I was a B cup. My breasts grew after each pregnancy, and they still seem to be growing. :(

    I remember when I was your age I watched a movie with Dolly Parton in it. Not sure if you know who she is, she's a bit before your time, but she's known for her huge breasts. I saw her, and I was scared to death. I used to go to bed every night praying that I'd never be as big as her.

    I'm actually going to be talking to my doctor about a breast reduction, that's how much they bother me.
