Scheduled BA January 7th 2020. Can hardly wait for the day. Always been a very small B but most likely an A after breast feeding my two children. 35 years young I feel like I have so much life to live and want to live it to the fullest with pretty full boobs. Looking at implants size around 425-475cc so far but will
Finalize things at my pre op appointment in mid December. I'm 5'7 145 lbs and very active. Any tips or suggestions would be much appreciated, thanks in advance!

I’m scheduled for 12th Dec... I really struggled with sizes, got obsessed with cc’s and paranoid about waking up with huge boobs! I’m a very small b at the mo, going for 255cc anatomical as I’m small all over really. Just try lots on, I landed on this one due to the BWD measurement...it fit width wise and was around the right cc. Good luck

Great advice! I know I want them big but not crazy big LOL
so it's hard to decide but i think I'm going to do the rice test for fun and see if that helps haha

I am scheduled for January 6th! Also freaking out about how big to go? I don’t want to regret going too big or not big enough. Such a hard decision!!
November 13, 2019
It SO is!!!! I'm doing the rice test thing maybe that'll help my indecisiveness lol

So exciting!! Good luck! My biggest suggestion with size is don't get stuck on cc's and go with what you like the look of and the suggestion of your doctor. Scheduling mine in January for May 2020, and my biggest hurdle has been coming to terms with the fact that I need LARGE implants to get my desired results bc I'm 6' tall, 195lbs, and have a 16cm BWD.
Can't wait to see your updates!

As long as it fits your frame and the look of your "boob goals" pics you like
Like you mentioned who cares the ccs of your implants! Can't wait to see updates as well!!!

Hi! I had mine done a little over a month ago. I have 440cc on my right breast and 485cc on my left. I was small b on right breast and probably A on left. I'm about a 36 d now. I had it in my head that a D was going to be bigger than it was so I definitely wish I would have gone bigger. As far as recovery the first few days are the worst then it eases up. The drive home was the worst. Going over bumps omg be prepared lol what surprised me was the back pain, bloating,and headaches. You will have a heaving feeling on your chest the first few days. I had to get help with getting out of bed. Dont be timid with takinging the pain meds. I made that mistake at 1st. Although the pain meds is what messes your stomach up. Be prepared to sleep on your back in an upright position. Have things close by. I had crackers nearby for when I took the pain meds. It does get better. I was so emotional at first probably due to lack of sleep. Try to go on little walks and move around after the first or second day. Zip up or button up shirts are the way to go for the 1st week. At least for me. Obviously follow your doctor's advice but this was my experience. Good luck!

How long were you “out of commission” for? I have a 1 and 3 year old and am trying to figure out how much time I will need help for!
November 14, 2019
I would say the first 3 days are the worst. Then it starts to ease up a bit. Definitely no picking up kids for a while though. I would say at about a week I felt well enough to go out. I'm sure everyone is different and it all depends on how big you go and how big you were to begin with. I honestly hurt more in my upper back than my chest the 1st few days. My chest felt tight like it hurt to take a deep breath. That feeling was for the first few days then got better. So I would say at least the first few days you would need help. Keep in mind it's going to hurt your chest to bend over.

I have a 18 month old and a 7 her old so I'm super scared about the picking up of my
Younger one after... my Hubby will
Take some day's off work in the beginning and my mother in law said she'd help
Out if I need her. I just don't want to mess up anything and postpone recovery or worse Create scar tissue !

What are your stats ? Correct bra size , height weight ect . And what look are you going for ? Personally I would recommend doing rice sizers which you can look up online how to do . Doing rice sizers literally made me change my size last minute I went from 525 to 605 with rice sizers and so happy I went up. 605 isn’t even that big on me in 5”5 , 130 pounds and was a full b/ semi c

You can check out my page see what 605 looks like , I love them and they really don’t look too big now that they are settled . I would DEF recommend going bigger than you think if you want a full look

I chose 470cc for tues surgery
I am 5'7 145 lbs and want full look but not DDs
I am extremely active don't want them holding me back in the gym I am a deflated small b maybe even larger A
But I def don't want to say "i should've gone bigger!" It's so tough !
January 5, 2020
Yea I totally understand , it’s hard to really decide on size not like you can see then during surgery lol
I would say def try rice sizers so your 100% sure
