I got a pretty nice ass and thighs from my mom, but unfortunately my [RS bleep] never managed to arrive like I was hoping. For our first anniversary, my husband is buying me the boobs I've always wanted!!!
I am very excited, but also nervous! I originally thought I wanted to go up to a small C, but realized that's actually pretty small. I have my pre-op on Thursday and am hoping to see how a D looks on me.

Hi! Thank you! I had my pre-op and tried on he D size implants and they were just too wide for me. The doctor said my chest wall is very narrow and anything much bigger than 375/400cc is going to be awkward and in the way for me. One of the reasons I chose this doctor is be side he prides himself on creating a natural look and doesn't want to put anyone into implants that will look fake or lopsided on their bodies. So, I trusted his opinion and we are going to go for large C. He says he will fill the implants between 350-400cc, depending on how much my skin can stretch to accommodate and also what looks good. I'm going win HP silicone implants by Mentor.

9 days before surgery!
Just had my pre-op 2 days ago. Doctor took my pre-op pictures and we discussed size again. I asked if he thought I could go to a D instead of a C and he said he didn't think so, but he would retake my measurements. So we did and he said that because my chest wall is very narrow, a D would feel too big and Would require a lot of skin stretching. So I tried on both the C cup and D cup implants although they looked very similar "from above", the D cup was far too wide and my arms were running into them!!! So we are going to go with a large C. Somewhere in the 350-400cc range.
I keep having dreams about my augmentation and I wake up and I'm just massive and it scares me. So I guess going for the smaller size is best. Of course my DH would love for me to have a D, he understood when I explained what the doctor said and how the implants felt when I tried them on.

Choosing a size is so difficult! I'm 5'3" 138 and going with 495cc mentor shaped implant. I had originally considered 555cc but was worried they would be too big. Good luck with your surgery! I'm 10 days out!

Hi Shan! Thank you for reading my review and commenting! I read your review and profile-you seem to have more breast tissue to start with and seem to have a wider base, so I think 500 is good, maybe? Are you looking to increase the fullness in the upper part of your breast? Or all over?
All my girlfriends that have had BA's are all telling me to go bigger, but I'm also an athlete (swimmer) and I don't want them to totally be "in the way". So it's been tough. Like I said, I am still a little afraid that C+ will be too big, but I have to remember to trust the doc.

I'd really like to be more full all over but I still want to look natural. My PS recommended the shaped implant for me because I was on the verge of needing a lift. The shaped implant will give me more fullness in the mid to lower area of my breast.
I agree, I think I have a wider base than you. I think my body could handle 555cc but I work out and run so I'd rather not have them in the way all the time.
Everyone has an opinion (friends, family, etc.) and I think it's hard to block all of them out and trust your PS but he/she is the expert! I think you'll be really happy with your choice!

I'm a teacher and school ended last Friday, so I'm newly on vacation. I have a list of things to take care of this week before the BIG DAY! I got my prescriptions for Vicodin and Zolfram (that anti-nausea one), but need to go get some extra strength Tylenol in case I can't handle the Vicodin.
I have scheduled people to be with me nonstop from the morning of the surgery on Monday theough Thursday morning, but after that I maybe on my own for a few hours on Thursday. Maybe I should get someone to be with me... What do you think?
