I have never heard of adding the 5 inches, so I have probably been buying the wrong bras. But I think they fit all right.
I like looking at the second set of numbers. Makes them seem bigger for some reason. I don't know. I think I am a 34C, but I will have to be measured and check it before I going bra shopping this week.
