42, two kids, 5'8" 140 lbs

I have always had small breasts - pre-kids I was a 34 B and I loved my breasts! Then I had twins - during breastfeeding they went up to a DD, and post breastfeeding they receded to a rather floppy C. I lost all of my pregnancy weight and began wearing a push-up bra almost all the time to hide the fact that my breasts were droopy and sagged. My husband wanted to give me a gift for all of the hardship that my body went through having twins, and thought maybe a breast augmentation would be nice for me. I went to see a ps to learn about it. I knew that I wanted a "modest" augmentation - more of a restoration, but Dr. Richard Rand told me that there was no such thing because my measurements and the doctor would really dictate the appropriate size for me. I left that appointment thinking that there would be no way that I would proceed. Several months later I went to see Dr. Dan Downey to gather more information. He has been voted the best ps in Seattle for many years running and specializes in breast work. The appointment couldn't have been more different. He was receptive to a modest ba and had me try on implants in a bra. It was an entirely different experience. Several months later, I decided to have the procedure. The next step was deciding on a size. After the initial work with the implants in bra, I had thought to get 240-260 cc gel implants. But after doing research on this site, and implantinfo, I thought that perhaps that was too modest. At 5'8" 140 lbs with somewhat broad shoulders, I thought my frame could support a 300 cc implant without it "defining me". I also ran across Dr. Teitelbaum's website and saw all of the results he was getting with the cohesive anatomical implants. I really like this natural look. I discussed this with Dr. Downey. First off, he had never used them and secondly, he felt that the ideal candidate would have firmer breast tissue up hight. Other detractors were cost (twice as much) and the fact that they can rotate. So I decided to go with 300 cc high profile gel implants. I had the surgery today and I'm really wondering if I went too big! So far, I feel better than I thought I would but the big breasts are hard to get used to and also seem rather widely spaced. I'm excited for them to start dropping and for the swelling to go down. My husband thinks they look amazing and natural already. At the same time I had a second surgery for an umbilical hernia so I'm a bit rough around the edges. It's really hard to get out of med because I can't use my arms or my abs.
