Hi all of you in boobyland. It has now been 8 months since I first got boobs and overall, I have to say I am happy with the results. I hope all is going well with all of you, wherever you are in the process. I went for my final post-op appointment last week and we took post-op pictures. So I have before and after pictures to share.

6 & 1/2 months with boobs!
wdfor1boobsFebruary 14, 2016
Hi everyone here in boobyland! I haven't been on the site for a while; just busy with life. I meant to post at the 6 month mark, but here I am at 6 and a half. I did go back for a re-sizing, since at my last sizing, I was barely 4 months post. After my first sizing, I had a post-op appointment and was told that you should really wait until the 6 month mark for a true sizing and before buying any expensive bras. Anyway, at my last sizing two weeks ago, I was told I am between a 32D and a 32DD, depending on the make and style of the bra. I was also told that the cup size of a 34C and a 32D are the same. This was kind of a relief to me, because basically I am a full C/ small D. I bought a 32D bra that fits perfectly. Overall, I am really happy with the end result. Hope all of you are doing well, wherever you are in the process!

Hi Vicki, I thought I had replied to your comment before, but somehow I didn't reply directly to your comment. Anyway, I had 250 cc gummy bear implants under the muscle. Best of luck to you!

You look great! How are you in regards to exercising? Are you 100% where you were pre BA?

4 month boobiversary!!
wdfor1boobsNovember 27, 2015
Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving!! Today marks my 4 month boobiversary! I finally went to Victoria Secret a few days ago and got sized; 34D or 32DD!! I nearly fell over in shock! I thought that it couldn't be accurate, so the next day I went to Nordstrom and got the same result! The woman helping me must have seen the look of astonishment on my face. She said, "Don't worry, it's not that big". I had previously bought a few non-underwire bras at the Gap in a size 34C, which seemed to fit. So, I assumed that was my size. The sales woman at Nordstrom said I could get away with that size in a non-underwire bra, but that it was important to wear the proper size in an underwire bra. Anyway, I've been a little freaked out that I am actually a D! I was going for a modest BA. However, I don't think my boobs look that big. I have included a picture of me in a yoga top too, so let me know what you ladies think. I guess since I never had any boobs previously, I always thought that a D size was huge! I asked the sales woman what size the bras go up to and she said they go up to a size J!
Other then my little freak out about size, all is going well! I feel that my girls are looking and feeling pretty natural. My scars are fading. I wore the silicone strips over the scars for 8 weeks, as instructed by my PS and I am now using Bio-oil. Hope all of you ladies are doing well!

I too was measured a 32dd at VS. But all the other bras I tried on were a 36c. Which is the size I wanted. I think VS just sizes differently than everyone else. You look great and well proportioned. Happy shopping. I am still trying bras to get the look I want.

Thank you so much for posting your progress! I'm 51 and got 225cc on one side and 250 cc on the other. I'm only 3 1/2 weeks along and very impatient. I'm so glad to see your beautiful boobs! It encourages me and helps me be patient.

Thanks so much! I looked at your profile and you look great for only 3 1/2 weeks post-op!

I don't think they look too big. They like perfect for your body and natural.

Thank you so much! I looked at your profile and you look great already! What are your stats, as far as height and weight? I'm thinking I should have gone with a smaller implant like yours.

Thank you. I am 4'9 and 96 lb. I have tight skin for beasts area. My implant type is smooth round shaped silicon. I found out the exact size was 178cc. I like my implant size but I am hoping that they won't end up looking round.

If the breast implants extend out to the armpit, the underwire of a C cup might cut into the flesh of the implant. The D cup has a bit more wire and will go to the edge of your implant. So don't be concerned about the labelling. Nobody can see the label. Your scars are fading fast! Excellent result. Very proportional and flattering.

Thank you so much! I looked at your profile and you look great as well! I noticed that you said you thought you were a 12B. Do you know what size that would be in American sizes?

Thanks wdfor1boobs.
Australian band size 10 = US band size 32
Australian band size 12 = US band size 34
Australian band size 14 = US band size 36
The cups are the same. Therefore, Australian 12B = US 34B
I find that nothing beats trying on the bra and seeing where the wires and the gore (front part of the band between the cups) actually lie. I read on a bra fitting advice page that the gore should sit flat (or as close as possible to the skin) and the underwires should be about 1/4 inch beyond the root of the breast.
