Okay ladies, next month is the big day. And it's coming so fast! I keep thinking what size I should go to. i don't want to be top heavy at all, and I don't want it to look obvious that I had it done. I wear a 34b but Victoria's Secret and Nordstrom is saying I'm a 34c! Ugh, I already picked my sizes, 405 moderate and 454 moderate plus, i hope that reaches me to a small d, nothing too huge, i want to be proportional. I'm 5'6, 140 pounds and I'm curvy. Ladies please share your experiences with me! Because everyone says "they wish they had gone bigger!"

Yes thanks for the advice! Now in thinking if I should go bigger now, hmm? Do yours look natural on you? Nothing too extreme. I don't like the "fake look" that's why in debating if I should go smaller, it's so hard!

Right now you can totally tell they are fake because they are so high and tight but size wise i think they fit me. I dont think it will be noticeable that i had them done. It is very hard to pick! Took me forever to finally decide! Lol. I looked at people my size on here and went off of their results! It helped alot

Nordstrom and VS tend to size larger than reality. I think it gives women an ego boost!

So, its pre op is less than a month away! July 2nd is the day, then 3 weeks after is the DAY!! Woot woot! Time is flying by really fast. I'm still going with the same sizes, 405 moderate on my left and 455 moderate plus on my right. Im debating if i shoud go moderate plus on both, because i believe moderate is a lower profile, and i dont want one to be dropping more than the other. One saggy boob and one perky one looks kinda odd to me, but idk!? I seen both of them and they look exactly the same, one is just a little wider than the other. I guess i'll find out for my pre op! Hey do you ladies also know how many days or weeks we are suppose to not drink any alcohol before surgery? I'm not quite sure, I'm debating if I should go to Miami for 4 Days! We'll see though, I'm definately excited!!!

I don't think the size you are going with will be too big at all. I have 400(L) 450(R) and I'm a lot shorter than you. After getting used to them my boobs don't feel huge at all, I can easily play them up or down. I had to go with high profile due to my narrow rib cage and BWD. I had wine 3 or 4 days pre op I think? Just a glass or two. Good luck with your surgery:-)

Yeah that's what a lot of people are saying. I just want to be proportional, the whole BIG look really doesn't satisfy me, lol. But what size were you pre op? I'm a 34b, I can fit into some 34c bras, so I wonder what size I'll end up being!? I hope its not toooo huge, your results look amazing btw! How was your recovery?

For me, the easiest thing was to just not stress the size. I have no idea about cc's/profiles/BWD etc etc. So I just communicated with my PS and let him know what I wanted. He's been doing this for a long time and has gotten great reviews for a reason. I tried looking at people with similar stats but even that varies greatly; 2 similar people with 800cc can look the same as one with 500cc i don't get it but that's why I'd say just trust your surgeon! You'll look great I'm sure!

Thank you:-) I was a very depleted 32/34 A. After nursing my 4th child they were so sad, they did a fabulous job feeding my babies but man the aftermath wasn't so cute lol. I absolutely agree with last post. Try not( easier said than done) about the cc's and size. They are just numbers. My bra size now is a 34 E... They look like a full C which is what I told my PS I would like to achieve. I explained what I wanted and ultimately left it up to her :-) " breast" of luck lol!!
