140lb, 5'7, 385 CCs Silicone Textured (Former A Cup) Doylestown, PA

So here is an update (5 1/2 months post) :I hope girls deciding on what size to get read this! When I decided my size I read all about "go bigger " "they get smaller after the swelling goes down" etc but I never read about women feeling like they were too big. I don't regret having the surgery at all and I liked the sizers I tried on. I read all about the CCs (380) and they seemed like a normal size to go to (if not on the small size) but now I have to say I feel that they are too big. Every picture of me I feel heavy and not sexy. I feel sometimes like I have these two beach balls vs a natural look (but they feel and look natural naked). I don't blame my doctor but they were unable to assure me I would be a certain size and I get that but I was hoping to be about a large C and I am wearing 32DDD ! I spent my whole life unable to wear sexy clothes and lingerie and now I can't find anything to wear because they are so big. I went from everyone calling me skinny and althetic build to a bigger girl and muscular . I never noticed how some women aren't big at all but they just have large chests!
I love them in so many ways and again I don't regret having the surgery but my advice is don't feel pressured to go huge. It's not all it's cracked up to be. Really know what you're choosing. Don't feel rushed because It's your right to take your time and only you can know if it's the right size. Take the sizers home or make ur own before committing. Just sayin - Now all the models and women I was jealous of how big their boobs were all seem to have itty bittys to me. Victoria secret lingerie doesn't fit and feeling skinny is so much more difficult. I am working out more and planning on hopefully loosing weight will make me feel sexier. It's funny I spent my whole life trying to make them look bigger and now I have to learn how to dress to make them smaller! I'll include pics to show because without clothes on or in bras -it doesn't show my problem as much. If you have narrow shoulder width and a small ripcage - be careful. You don't want to look too heavy!!
Again not trying to be all "boo hoo my boobs are too big " (I hated those girls when I was flat!!) but it's a legit true problem that I had to learn the hard way! Worst case you go bigger later, I think that's easier than unstretching skin to go smaller.

It has been awhile since I posted but I know I was super curious how my boobs would progress as months went on. If they really would feel more a part of me (they do) or if they would really get much smaller like some say (they didn't). Well I felt like sharing my status so to help all you boobie newbies who like I was probably are on here 24/7 looking for someone who has posted past the one month mark! I am now a 32 DDD or 34 DD (from 34 A) - apparently when band goes up letters go down but I can't believe I am that size! No one believes me except those who have sized me at nordstroms and Victoria's. I have learned a lot about bras!! They feel a lot softer and sit a lot lower but my doc at my 3 mos post op appointment told me in 3 more months they will be even softer. My boyfriend loves them now and says they feel like the real deal. I am not 100% as I feel they are bigger than I expected but they also still feel a bit foreign to me. I think as they continue to soften I will be happier. Mine did not go down at all in size and doc says they won't get any smaller. Over all I am super happy and my scars are fading nicely. All my worries are in the past and none of my fears were true! Hang in there girls, it really is worth it!
