I currently weight about 119 lbs and 5'3 ..I recently received a BA 5 weeks ago. Not sure if I made the right decision or not. Do you think 286 cc is too large for my small frame. I was very small droopy b. I'm little overwhelmed by this extra weight and I'm wondering if it's a lot of swelling still.

Answer: Breast Augmentation - Did I Go Too Large? You stated in your RealSelf note that you were a very small droopy "B". A small B plus 286 ccs, on average, would equal a medium to full C if you wear a 34 bra. There are so many variables such as chest width, store at which you purchase the bra, etc., but basically you have gone up 1-1/4 sizes. Whether you have gone too large or not very often has to do with your attitude towards breast sizes. It has been my experience that there is usually an intersection at some point during the first three months of recovery. As the swelling goes down and as one gets comfortable with the new look, there is an increased level of satisfaction with the new breast size. At that point, my patients usually state, "they are not going to get any smaller are they?" At five weeks, you are still physically uncomfortable and swollen. Please give yourself and your breasts a break. Don't worry. You are going to get smaller.

Answer: Breast Augment` You are deffinately still swollen, it really takes 3 full months for everything to settle. Your sizing seems very reasonable but I always tell people breast augmentation is not for everyone GOOD LUCK
