I went to a few consultations back in January. The first doctor leaned more on the "natural look" side of things, so I knew I needed to keep looking. My consultation with Dr. Robert True was high energy and everyone was so friendly! I canceled my remaining consultations because I just knew he was it. They wanted me to have boobs as much as I wanted to have bigger boobs! I told him that I wanted to knock over tea glasses after he got done with me and we quickly decided on 600cc, based on my BWD. I am a 34b and have gotten up to a C cup while breastfeeding. I love my boobs, no body image issues here but now that I am older and into the groove of living my life to my fullest, I decided, why the heck not have a nicer rack! My surgery is next Wednesday; I am doing the awake procedure by the way. I am more ready for bigger boobs than I am nervous. (I have had too much time to watch too many videos and look at reviews, etc, lol)

Congratulations on your upcoming procedure! Are you going to have them placed under the muscle or above? Have you chosen silicone or saline? I am almost 3 weeks postop with 560cc overfilled to 600cc saline. I love the size so far, I am still a little swollen, and I know the girls are going to change as they drop and fluff, but had I gone any smaller, I may have been unhappy with the size. Best wishes to you on your journey!

Silicone , under the muscle, and yes I also think I would have been unhappy with a smaller size. I think 600cc will prevent boob greed for me. What size are you hoping to be?

I am hoping to be a full D or DD when the girls are settled. I know it is too early to get sized for a bra - since I was told by my PS the other day, it is too soon for me to buy new bras, but I did get sized out of curiosity and I have gone from a 34A/32C to a 36C. I realize that this is going to change when the swelling goes down and the upper pole drops a little into the lower pole allowing it to fill out more. I went with a high profile, smooth round implants, so they should sit nicely once they are settled.

What profile did you decide to go with?

I'm going with the Natrelle Inspira SRF, the equivalent of high profile. I think you would definitely reach the D/DD range though !!

I have a wide chest, which is why I went as big as I could go. I believe once they drop and fluff I will be in the D+ range :) which is where I really wanted to be. So far, I am happy with the size, I know they are going to change, as the upper pole drops and the lower pole fills out more, so I believe it will only get better from here. Today I am 3 weeks postop, and it is amazing how far I have come with my healing journey. At first they were so stiff and hard and up really high - like into my collar bone and scary looking. Now they are getting softer, they are still high up there, but they have dropped some and they are getting rounder and looking fuller everyday.

Hey all! I did great with my "awake" procedure! I metabolized my anesthesia quickly so I was given more than anticipated. Hence why it took me so long to post. My nausea was bad for the first 12 hours but luckily no vomiting. Ice has been my best friend, too! I had my follow up today and my doctor said I looked great! I'm gaining more mobility in my arms so getting out of the bed is less of a pain. Hubby ran me a 2 inch bath and helped me wash off the grime, so that felt SO GOOD! For now I'm just enjoying this time off work and resting on and off. Happy healing!

I have started walking in the mornings to help loosen up. I've been waking up really stiff. I've also been cutting my Percocet's in half and started using ibuprofen. It seems like they're already starting the D &F process which is exciting! My surgical bra needed to be washed so I went out and bought a Danskin front zip in a size L. That turned out to be a bit snug so I'll be going to Target for a better sports bra selection. The Danskin won't even stay zipped so I've safety pinned it, hahaha! Happy healing and big thanks to all our military this Memorial Weekend :)

Ahhh congrats! They look good already. My surgery is at the end of the month and I'm so excited I can't stop looking at pics. I am doing 650 ccs. We have the same starting size (I am 34B, more like 34C now that I'm on the birth control pill). I'm hoping to get to 34DDD/E afterwards. Totally tracking your journey!

yes, I agree. I'm 5'3" and usually around the same weight as you but I'm actually trying to get to about 130 before surgery, right now I'm at 139. Don't mind me if I'm hawking your page for updates lol! I am so antsy I feel like time is not passing quickly enough.

I did 600cc also, after the first week I had to bump up my sports bra to an XL because of dropping and fluffing. Still wearing the XL 4 1/2 weeks postop. Congratulations on your new look! I wish you rapid healing :)
