Is it common to change your mind between your first consultation and the surgery on your desired outcome/goals?

I (28F) recently booked my implant + lift coming up in 5.5 weeks. During the consultation process I was actively looking at galleries online and educating myself on the procedures so I could come to the consultations prepared. I sent the clinic many wish pics ahead of my consult (strictly from plastic surgery galleries with women who have a similar body weight/breast anatomy to me). I am very slim so it was hard to find patients with similar stats to me (85lbs / 38.5kg x 5'2 / 160cm). So I decided to include some photos simply because of the fact they had a similar body to me and I liked ONE aspect of their after. (As you can imagine it can be hard to find similar weight, height, breast anatomy, and profile choice!) Unfortunately, as I look back now on the photos I sent them - I realize I do NOT like some of the photos I included. And I have completely changed my mind on some of them! And ironically, some photos which I did not like before, now I have come to like them! My next appointment is in 2 weeks and I feel like I have been emailing the clinic a lot already. I hate to be annoying; however, I just wanted to make sure its not too late to inform them of what I like and don't like and I didn't shoot myself in the foot by explaining properly. At the time I did not have as much knowledge or time spent on looking at the ideal breasts I think its my post booking/payment anxiety coming to me, but is this common? Its not too late right?
