WORTH IT$5,100
Always have had an A and was hoping to get larger after having children like my mother but I wasn't blessed. So, after a year of research I am 2 days away from making it a reality. I am excited yet nervouse at the same time. I am nervous that I might not have selected the right size. I want to be a C post op and had 2 options with 286CC or 304CC both which will get me there. I went with the 304 but I'm slightly concerned that it might be to big. I'm 5'2" 108 lbs, what do you guys think?

I went with 304 cc's too. at 5 months post op, I fit into a full C cup(D in Victorias Secret.) I'm 5'10. since you're so petite, they will def. look bigger on you. The shape looks great! Your PS did a nice job:-)

Three weeks post op and I am doing good. Still a little tender especially around the nipples. How long do you stay tender there?
I finally got my tape off the other day, so today I went and purchased a new bathing suit and thy look good. Tuesday was my first day back to work and I was sore afterwards because I wasn't used to sitting at a desk all day. Good thing is that no one seemed to have noticed!!!

I just had my pre op appt today, was very surprised that my doctor wanted to go with 286 or 304 at the most... After looking at so many pictures I was shooting for 350, so I was a little surprised at his choice! Yours look great so that makes me feel better! I was worried 286 might be too small! I'm 5'3 110 pretty small all the way around!

I am happy with the 286 but it you are looking at being bigger than I would tell your PS that you want to do the 304. Just remember this the implant really chooses you and you may not be able to go larger because of your frame.

sweetthing~you look awesome, Did you get silicone or saline? what profile implant, high, moderate plus or moderate..I am scheduled for july 20th and deciding between 275cc or 300cc~moderate profile.. I am 5'5" 115lbs.. I dont want to be too big...how to you feel about your size? how do you look in clothes. I hear they look smaller in clothes?? I am not telling many people about surgery and want to look like I am wearing my big padded bras still...lol

I went with silicone moderate profile and I love the size, really suites my body. I went back to work last week and no one noticed, it's definitely more noticeable in a bathing suit. What size did you PS say would be your best bet? Since you are taller I would go with the 300cc. I don't think anyone would notice.
Here's a tip: two weeks before surgery wear extra padding, then a week or a few days before do the rice thing. That's what I did, not sure if it made a difference but I didn't want anyone to ask me questions

Try not to focus too much on the cup size. You want to think about how they look on your body in proportion to the rest of your frame. Besides, bra manufacturers differ in how they size. So you might be a C in one type and a D in another. Don't let that freak you out. That said, welcome to RealSelf! I'm so glad you're here!
Well tomorrow is the big day! Good luck and keep us updated!!
