I am finally posting pictures. As embarrassing as it is to be reminded of my gross boobs. My surgery is scheduled for April 23 and I still don't know what size I want. I didn't think the 350s were big enough (silicone unders). I liked the way the 375 looked. Does that mean I should go with 400? Everyone's reviews about not going big enough make me nervous. I am 5'6 and 130 lbs. any help would be appreciated! I love reading everyone's stories!

For 7k go bigger than you plan because once they settle it'll be smaller than you planned visually.

Get your money's worth! Make sure you choose a size you wont regret later; you will lose 50 cc under the muscle; I have make the mistake of going too small and had to have a redo; I made sure I went for the Max now; no regrets; love the size I choose;

Hello and welcome I agree with everyone on here. Go bigger if yr ps recommends it. I would have if I could have I got 385 mod + silicone undies and I love them don't get me wrong. The only reason I didn't go alittle bigger is I didn't have any breast tissue 2 begin with and my ps didn't recommend going any bigger so I totally trusted him and he made the right decision. Me and u r similar n size as far as breast size b 4. Just trust yr ps and good luck on yr adventure it is totally worth it. If u have any ? Feel free 2 ask.

Tks. My best advice is talk with yr ps and tell him and take him some pics if the look u hope 2 achieve and go from there he will know what's best 4 yr frame and yr measurements. I'm sure whatever u decide u r gonna look great. Do U know what profile u were thinking about going?

Luvmyhuskies-Thanks! I just checked out your pics and you look wonderful! They are a great size for your body.

Jenn-I really don't understand the different profiles. He didn't even discuss that with me. I know my surgeon has a history of being very conservative.

I agree. And 400 isn't huge. I was Pre op 34c.... Haven't been officially sized yet but no one can tell that I've done anything People will notice I have I'm sure due to being small ... But not in a bad way. 400 will be fine. Does your ps suggest 400?

They had me try on 350 and I then i tried on 375. I know I wouldn't be happy with 350. I didn't feel like it looked any different with clothes on. I can't imagine I have enough tissue to go with 400. I am starting out so small.

I meant to say that because of my padded bras I didn't feel that much different.

I too am unsure now. If I do this, I am doing it right the first time around!!! I was thinking of going with 400 cc. I called the Drs office today and the nurse told me she just ordered my 375 & 350 (assymetry...so need 2 different sizes). I hope these are big enough!!

I have been freaking out that maybe I picked too big! My surgery is scheduled for Aug 8...and I am going to be on the much larger side....but now seeing so many people wishing they had gone bigger kind of makes me think my first choice isn't going to be that bad!

Well of seemed logical at the time....my consult was a week and half ago, I have two vacations planned but no time to heal between.....I have been planning this for at least 5 years and has been a definite plan as of October when I told my husband that would be the last Victoria Secrets bra I bought til my new boobs....and I have only bought one which was a VS sports bra! I picked August since kids were still out of school to help take care of mom....they are 12&10. And so I can get use all summer out of all my VS bikinis I bought last year. I won't feel so bad about spending money on new ones once the boobies are here since the others will all be well worn!

Chris-Is it too late to change your order and get 400 and 375?
April 16, 2013
I just want to get it over with. The anxiety is too much. I am going to be a nervous wreck next week.

I called my PS yesterday, spoke to his nurse & she had just ordered my implants. Then she was saying because of my very narrow chest(ribs) & petite frame stay with size we chose. She's an old family friend thru my ex. I'm gonna trust her.
