I am 5 days post op. My biggest fear before surgery was that I would be too big. Now I fear that I may have chosen too small. I am 5'7", 115lbs, BWD is 10, very narrow rib cage. I went with 170cc smooth round moderate unders. I'm hoping they "drop and fluff" soon and that they give the illusion of larger breasts and that I'm happier with the size!! My main goal was to remain very natural and have implants that could be easily hidden under clothing, but now I feel like I made a mistake by being too careful. Does anyone have this size or similar size and have any advice or a similar experience they can share to help me feel better? I'm very disappointed so far and am already considering a revision even though I know I'm only 5 days in.

Looking bigger than yesterday even. Maybe 170 was a good size after all? I hope they stay this way now! So many emotions throughout this whole process. Happy sad excited disappointed. My poor boyfriend haha

I went way too big and spent 15 years with huge feasts and am now without any implants at all to let my skin retract some so I can put in small 180cc implants. I am tiny also. You will like your small ones much better than big ones. You can stil wear cute tops and bikinis and be in proportion. You will be happy if your are like me. I wish I never got large breasts.

Hi melodyanne-
I'm only on day 7 post-op and already realizing what a tumultuous psychological journey this whole breast augmentation thing is. At first I was devastated that they were too small. Now I fear they may look too big. And I'm hoping once they drop and fluff that they will settle into more of a modest and natural look. I never wanted anyone to notice I had breast implants with clothes on. I'm hoping that look can still be achieved after D+F. Because right now, they seem to stick out far in anything I wear and you can tell they are obviously bigger. I spent yesterday afternoon crying about why I felt the need to have this invasive procedure on my perfectly ok body in the first place. I thought, maybe I should have gone 150 instead of 170. Then I thought, maybe I should just explant in six months. I woke up this morning realizing that before I make any crazy judgement calls, I need to wait atleast a month or so to let nature take its course and see how I'm feeling once things settle. I could have never prepared for the emotional impact this would have on me.

It's such a journey! I had 250cc hp 3 months ago and got so upset for weeks that they were too small. But the truth is, I had all my body would allow due to my bwd and natural breast height and I'm guessing you did too given your very narrow bwd at 10. My head would tell me this but my heart said I want bigger. Believe me they do change a lot over the first 3 months. Mine look much better and bigger now than they did at first so try and be patient and have faith in the decision you made x

Left boob extremely sore and tight. Right boob completely fine pain wise. Also, left boob having frequent muscle spasms. Is this all normal? I can basically do everything with my right arm but my left is sensitive because anytime I try to do something, I have muscle spasms on my left breast. It is still so painful too. However, my right breast, despite the lack of tightness or pain, has a small blister near the incision area. Is that normal? I know it's only a week post op but can't wait for them to drop and fluff a lot more.
