My girlfriend has good sized breasts according to me. She told me she's 34C, I don't know what that means in size, is that a big size?, does anyone know this measurement translated to inches or centimeters?.

34 is the inches around her rib cage where the bra snaps. "C" is the cup size.
It is a medium size for the most part; but you have to think...
a 34A is not the same as a 40A. Someone who wheres a 40A has bigger breasts than someone who wheres a 34A.
It's a fairly inexact measurement and science. :-)
I'm certain I havn't really helped you at all either...

As everyone has said, the number is the inches around the chest, under the breasts. The letter is the cup size.
One thing I wanted to point out is that different sizes look different.
Example. If I say there are two women. Woman 1 wears a 34A bra. Women 2 wears a 44B. Who will appear to have the larger breasts? Woman 1 will, even though her measurements are smaller. Think about it. If she's only 34 inches around, then her breasts will APPEAR larger. A woman who is 44 inches around, with slightly larger breasts, will appear to have smaller boobs.

34 inches around her rib cage. The C is the cup size and the actual size of the breast.
Yes. This is a very nice size. When I met my wife she was at a 38D. Since we've had children, she has now grown to 38DDD. Not that you cared...I just wanted to brag.
I don't know the inches and centimeters. But 1 inch equals 2.54 centimeters. You can do the math my friend.
But the sizes are different from US to Europe and even in different parts of Europe. Go to a bra selling website and find a conversion chart.

34 is the band size in inches it is 3 to 6 inches larger (depending on manufacturer) than her ribcage as measured under her breasts or the measurement of her chest above her breasts, The C part is her cup size. Measure her breasts (in a bra) around the fullest part of her bust. This measurement is 3 inches (for a C cup - 2 inches for a B cup).

The 34" is her measurement just above her breasts, under the arm pits. A second measurement is taken around her back and across her nipples. I think every additional half inch equals a cup size.

It's the C part that makes the difference. The 34 is just the measurement under the breasts. The C comes into play when they compare that measurement and the difference when they measure around the breasts.

I dont understand people's obsession with statistics. If her breasts look good then what does it matter. My God.
Anyway, C is a good size. A is the smallest, then B. so she is doing pretty well. In terms of numbers, i cannot translate a c cup, but if i had to guess i think it might be upwards of 40 inches around her bust,.

The number corresponds to inchs around her ribcage(measured right underneath her breasts not over them) and the letter is the cup size. They range from AA-DD(most typical sixes, although they can get into AAAA=verrry small to J=verrryy large). A's are on the small aide and D's are on the large side, so shes about average.

34C is average in my opinion. I heard a quote one time that mor than a handfull is a waste, I disagree 'cause I am a 34D. I do wish I was 34 (size in inches just below breast) C ( cup size).

Yes, that's a big size. 34 is the measure of the rib cage. C is the cup size. A is the smallest, then B then C... I think the average is a B
