WORTH IT$3,600
Hey ladies, I am 32yrs old, 5'4 & 137 lbs. I'm getting my boobs done very, saline mods or mod+ with TUBA. I'm torn between 350/375/400cc's. I don't want to be too large, but I also don't want to be small. I have sort of broad shoulders & wide hips. Right now I wear a 34A. Really I should wear a 32A, but they seem too tight & I feel like I can't breathe. Anyway, I can't decide on the size. I've looked at tons of pics, but everyone is so different. I'm also torn between partial unders & over. I think I'm leaning towards partial unders. My husband was no help when I was trying on sizers. I've done the rice test & I feel like I like the 375's. I want to be a full C, or even a D. Please Help!

Hey, Ladies! I have 8 more full days to get through, and then it's my BIG DAY! I received my Pre & Post Op Surgery Vitamins from Makemeheal.com. It's 3 pills per day for 2 weeks prior to surgery, or 3 pills twice per day, 7 days before surgery. They come in convenient little one dose packs, they are easy to swallow, so to me, they are worth the $60. I'll really know their worth if I have minimal pain, swelling & bruising after surgery.
I also received my Extra Support, Front Zip sports bra from Under Armor, $36.99. A Very comfy & not too hot bra. I hate bras that make you hot. And I picked up a few packs of Fruit of the Loom sports bras from Walmart. Can't go wrong when you get 3/$10 & they are cute colors, plus one pack had lace at the top. Perfect for work. I also bought a front close, all cotton Fruit of the Loom bra, $10. And a deep plunge, front clasp Danskin sports bra, for going out. All very comfy & I won't have to wait on laundry to have a clean bra. Major bonus!

Ok. These vitamins...are amazing! They make me feel so good! I normally take Alive vitamins & they work pretty well, but these have something special in them. All it contains is 1 MultiVitamin, 1 Ester-C & 1 Zinc-Chelate. I wake up in the best mood & I have plenty of energy all day long.
I would highly recommend these vitamins!

Hey, After surgery I was told and actually signed an agreement that I would wear the post-op bra that they provide for 24hrs a day for 4 weeks. So I think it might be a little premature to buy any kind of bra yet. Just my thoughts... I would say go for the 400cc. Not because bigger is better, but because 400cc seems more likely to achieve your goal of being a C or D. With mine I might end up a full C, small D or full D (what I wanted). As far as overs, unders, or partial... I chose under the muscle because I wanted firm support for the implants and I've seen overs that sag pretty significantly over the years. Just keep doing your research... It will work out fine!!

Thanks for the advice. :)
My PS told me that I had to be in a surgical bra for 1-2 weeks & after that, I could wear what I wanted, as long as there was no underwire.
As far as buying real bras...I'll wait a couple of months. But I can wear the sports bras anytime.
