I have wanted bigger boobs all my life! After 37 years, 3 kids, and going through a divorce, I'm finally going to get them! My ex husband used to tell me all the time that my boobs were "fine". That he didn't want me to get implants. Personally I don't think he wanted to spend the money on them, and also other men might look at them and hit on me or something. I have a boyfriend now whom I have been with for 3 years. He also didn't want me to get implants. He tells me all the time that he loves my boobs! But he finally realized that this is about me, and that I wasn't going to get over this insecurity just because he has no problems with my small boobs. I made my appt for my consultation and I was very nervous! What for, I don't know, it wasn't like I was having it done that day. Anyway the doctor thinks he can achieve the look I desire. I want very natural looking boobs. They don't have to be big, as long as they are fuller. I'm an 34 A cup now and even a big B cup would be OK. I'm very active. I lift weights and run! I love to do mud runs. So going to big would just get in my way. Here is my question though. I am 5'10 145lbs and broad shoulders. My doctor said that because I am active and that I want a very natural look a small implant would look great. He's thinking somewhere between 175-250cc's. He'll make the final decision while doing the surgery. The thing I worry about is since I am so tall is that small of an implant going to make much difference at all? I am spending almost $7000 for this. I want to notice a difference! Any input would be appreciated! My surgery is in 3 weeks. I wish it would hurry and get here. Thinking about it for so long is killing me!

Hi! I as well wanted a very natural yet proportional look. I am military so I need to not be inhibited in my ability to do physical activities as well as I work around mostly males and the last thing I wanted was negative attention. My ps focused on the width of my chest to determine what size implant would be proportional and give me natural cleavage (not too narrow or wide) Of course, the wider the base needs to be to achieve this look the larger the implant. I also got a moderate plus profile, it gives a lot of fullness without that weird pushed up look you get from higher profile implants. In the end I went from a 32A to a full C (32D by Victoria's Secret sizing...but they run small). I got Mentor silicone gel implants placed submuscular through the armpits...450cc and 475 cc respectively. I look absolutely natural and proportional. I am 5'5", 130lbs, 27" waist, and appx 35" hips. My doctor also had this neat 3D machine he was able to use to show me my projected results with those specs. Hope this helps!

I'm in the consultation process too and I was wanting very natural proportionate breasts as well I'm 5'9" and 135lbs active and lift weights. I think the biggest thing is do you want natural when you're naked or proportional when clothed. For me what I wanted to look like naked was so small that I couldn't even notice when I was clothed. Nothing that a push-up bra wouldn't do. So I had to change my expectations to fit reality. Not sure if that helps at all. I think I'm going with 475cc which sounds huge but on our tall frames it looks soooo natural. I have two more consults then I'll make the final choice.

Hi there! I've been in your place for all my life as well, 2 kids later, just turned 36. I am 5'8" and 145. I also want very small boobs, and have chosen 300cc's. My surgery is in 2 days and if I think about it, I want to vomit. I just don't know if it's for me but it's never left my mind and I like seeing everyone's results. I will let you know!! I was going to do 285cc's but then did a lot of research online and liked the look of 300's on taller women. I also workout and lift weights so I'm worried that they're going to be super noticeable and too big. But like you, if you're spending $7k you'd like to notice. I'll let you know and be your Guinea pig!!

Thank you, thank you!! I am the same, I've gone back and forth for years! It's also something that has never left my mind. I can't wait to see the 300's on you. Good luck, I'll be thinking about on Thursday!!

I'm 5 6' and the fist time I went to see my doctor and tried on sizer and it was very odd to me. I said that 350 looked too big. He said "if you go smaller don't waist your money because you will barely be able to see a difference." I had a lot of time to think about it and I needed up deciding on about 400 (depending on what looked good and fit my body). From what I read most women wish they would have gone bigger so I went a little bugger than what I wanted.

My ps didn't really give me a cc size. He looked at my wish pics and listened to what i told him i wanted and said it was very doable. He said i had nice shaped boobs to start with and when you have that you end up with a very nive result. He doesn't want me to get hung up on the cc's. He said they look different on different people! I know he's right after looking at all the pics in here. I'm actually more scared of having to big, fake looking boobs than i am of to small. I've seen some very nice smaller boobs that have that perfect shape. If i end up with that I think I'll be happy because mine now just are deflated and don't have any fullness. That's more what I'm looking for. It's not so much the size for me, its more to fill them out and feel good about them! Are you happy with going bigger than what you wanted originally?

So my surgery is in 5 days. I'm getting very nervous! I've been looking at my little boobies and thinking why am I doing this, they aren't so bad. What!? It has to be the nerves cause I have never been ok with my boobs. Don't get me wrong I'm excited, but the more I research the more I worry about something going wrong. I just can't wait for the day to get here so I will be on the other side of my ba! Here are my wish boobs. These are the ones I showed my ps. As you can see I'm going for a very natural look. Not to big, but big enough! Maybe I'll finally feel womanly instead of inadequate! Not sure if I'll post again before my surgery but I'll definately update after!
