rice test question

Hey there...I'm getting closer to my date and still haven't really picked a size yet.mI'm going back and forth between 450cc and 500cc. My hubby wants the 500s of course...but my question is, for those that have done the rice test and have their boobies done now, how close to the rice test did you get? Just curious...does 500cc sound too big for 5'4" and 150lbs? I am a 34c bra size... which by the way was a shocker because I used to be a 36dd. I recently got resized. My hubby even mentioned how small my boobs are now...so if he noticed they are definitely way smaller than they used to be. I'm worried with a tummy tuck, 500s will be huge on a flat tummy... Thanks for your help girls (; 25 days to go!

no replies yet :/

First off, let me say sorry for my grammer...crap! Typing on a tablet is not so good for this type of thing...ok so I'm kind of upset. My coordinator has not responded to any one of my 3 emails. I realize that my first email had 10 questions, and I realize I'm not her only patient, but come on! I called two weeks after my first email just to make sure she got it. She did, and was hoping to get all my answers to me later that day. That was last Wednesday. I sent another to her just verifying my appt with the doctor so I could request a day off. Never heard back on that either. Thats when i called her. Then yesterday, I sent an email asking to change the time to an earlier appt. Still nothing. Like I said, I know I have tons of time, but I am spending so much money on this and hate that I feel so unimportant. My sister had her tatas done by this same doc and loved him. He has got the best in Bakersfield for like the last 7-8 years, for what he does. In my opinion, the coordinator is part of the selling point. You want to feel like they will jump through hoops to make you happy. She right now is the face of this doctor. She is supposed to lead me through this...and I dont even get responses to my emails. Is it possible to request a different coordinator? Has anyone ever changed docs because of this?

soooooo impatient

I sent an email to my patient coordinator on Friday...I have yet to receive an email back, or even an acknowledgement that she received my message. I am so impatient and want answers to my questions...I know I have lots of time, but still, I would hope she would feel like my questions are important and would at least let me know she is working on getting the info I want ):): I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt, so I'm crossing my fingers I will hear back soon. Good news tho, she set up another appt to see the doctor a month before my surgery date. That makes me feel better (:(:
