Doctor Only Recommended 300 Cc Removal for Breast Reduction?

Andrea6885
I went for my first breast reduction consult yesterday. Currently I am 4'11" and 132 pounds. My bra size is a 34DDD. The plastic surgeon only recommended 300 cc removed from each breast. Does that seem like too little? It seems like I have a lot more boob that that to work with. I would like to end up in the large B small C range but from what I have read 300 cc's would only take me down about a cup size??
