I'm currently a 32a. Would 300cc be a good choice for me? (Photo)

paige3535Jan 14, 2016

i am currently a 32a or even aa im not sure no bra seems to fit right. i am having my breast augmentation in two weeks. i dont want to focus on an end bra size as much as i want the right size for my body. but if i had to say it would be a C absolutely no bigger. im getting silicone unders and from my research alone my ballpark is 300cc. does this sound too large?
