I Was a 32A Before Breast Aug, and Recieved 330cc and when I Went to Get Sized, Theyre Saying I Am a 32D is This Possible?

Hello, im 5'0 92 lbs, and had my breast augmentation done almost 5 weeks ago, I did 330cc, and initially after surgery I thought they almost didnt look that big, like they didnt come out too far? So when I went to see my doctor for my check up he said I could start wearing a normal bra, so when I went to get sized the lady said I was a 32D but I dont understand how if they look nothing like D cup size breasts. Is it because i have such a petite frame? And will they get smaller when they drop?

Smaller framed women (32, 34) will see cup changes go up with smaller volumes. Remember, it's not the bra that gives you your... more

Bra size post aug

Cup size in my opinion is very misleading because it will vary from one bra maker to another so it is not always easy to say D cup or DD.

Bra and volume of implants

The question you asked is a good one. Implatn volumes do not always correlate with teh specific cup size of a given bra. All manufacturers make their cup sizes differently.
