Bigger boobs without surgery

I fancy having bigger boobs but no way will I go under the knife so what could I do to enhance what I've got;)
I am a size 32D in M&S and a 34D in La Senza so I'm by no means flat chested but according to the M&S woman I don't have a "full cup":rotfl:also they don't sag so no problems there.
I have chicken fillets but tbh they don't do much, I always wear padded bras but I never ever wear the bras that give you cleavage or that push your boobs together nor would I want to, I really hate that look and never wear anything low cut but I do want a larger busted silhouette, so I want my boobs lifted, separated and covered (or contained) what style bra would be best for this? Is there something else apart from the fillets that would help? Any tips or tricks to share?
I have read good things about balcony bras for my size but it looks to me like quite a lot of flesh is exposed, wouldn't that 'wobble' under tight t shirts or clothing?, I don't want that! also does anyone use the bras that you can pump up? the only ones I've seen (online) give cleavage:( any comments?
Thanks in advance for any advice:)

So you want nice, round big boobs that are covered, not exposed?
Balcony bras are usually a half-cup design (straight across your boob rather than a triangular shape of a traditional bra). This will give a more rounded appearance, but you will have a wobbly top half as this won't be in the bra.
I would suggest going for a more round cupped bra and wearing your chicken fillets more underneath your boob rather than at the side. This will give a more full cupped look. Some bras do have padding in that area, if you can find any.
In my experience, pump up bras are for cleavage. Maybe try going to a department store like John Lewis that sells many different brands, rather than stores that only sell their own make. Different brands will fit differently. Warners bras usually have a very rounded fit, if I remember rightly. Try a few on and see if you like the result. A little tip I used to tell customers is to pop your top back on in the fitting room and see if you like the shape of the bra under your clothes.0 -
Or love what your mother gave you!! If you're not sagging you probably have a good shape bust anyway. I'm only a 32C, i used to hate being small but i can't change it! I just wear padded bras that fit me properly.
My first bit of advice is to go and see a trained fitter in a decent shop, not m&S/la senza and explain what you want to them and see if they can help you. There is little anyone can do here without seeing what your boobs look like, and it sounds like youre doing most of what you can anyway.0 -
Ann Summers have a nice range that accentuate what you have.0

Definitely go get yourself properly measured and into a well fitting bra. I know of several people who have horror stories about M&S measuring them; Bravisimo are meant to be good. I had put on weight and got measured for a new bra and accepted going from a 34 to a 36. But I was suffering from neck and back pain, which I put down to my desk at work. When I saw a physio she commented on the fact my bra strap was quite high on my back and recommended I got measured again. When I did it turned out I was still a 34 but had gone up 2 cup sizes. The bra I then got sat lower on my back, my neck and back pain vanished and I looked so much better. Just wearing the right bra made me look slimmer in the lower body and carried my boobs better...result, I looked slimmer but curvier in a good way.0

Thanks girls:D I would like to get measured properly but I live in the sticks, trips to London are few and far between and rather rushed and taken up with other stuff when I do go, my nearest large shopping area has a Debenhams and a department store that is part of the Fenwicks chain, do you think either of these would be any good? I'll do some research myself next week as well.
I am very pleased with what I have naturally I just fancy a change without doing anything drastic, I guess balcony and pump up bras are out then, bella*donna you've got it just right with thisSo you want nice, round big boobs that are covered, not exposed?
and I will certainly put my top back on when trying bras on, great tip so simple but I never thought of that:o
Does anyone have any sites to recommend so that I can have a look at styles? I'll have a look myself in a while but any suggestions would be great:)Thank you for this site MartinThe time for change has comeGood luck for the future0 -

Don't buy your bras at M&S. Try Debenhams instead and get measured there.4.30: conduct pigeon orchestra...0

The bravissimo website has some excellent tips on checking to see if a bra fits you.
I have the same sort of problem as you - I'm 30D, I find that balcony bras are the best by far. I love Debenhams Gorgeous range, the sort that I would go for is more covered like
http://www.debenhams.com/lingerie the "fuller bust" picture. so you don't get boobs busting out over the top!
I look for the cup seam to be running from the under wire up to the top of the cup vertically as this gives a rounder nicer shape, rather than the seam running horizontally (which can make you look pointy)

This is my favourite bra of all time. I have it in a few colours, it has a bit of padding at the bottom and looks great under clothes.0 -
Thanks, great advice:beer: Thanks for the links xxvickixx thats made it clearer as to what I'm actually looking for, off to Debenhams it is then:DThank you for this site MartinThe time for change has comeGood luck for the future0

Now now, neither C cups or D cups are small! I'm an A cup, does that mean I'm boobless by comparison? :eek:0
