Im thinkin about 400-450cc mod plus profile under muscle. Of course im nervous. I know a lot of girls wish they would have went bigger but i dont want it to be the focal point. I want it to go with my body that i work hard for. A natural look. Im usually in gym clothes but when i wear normal clothes i want to feel more confident. I use to have bigger boobs but lost them when i lost body fat. I had a full C and that would have been perfect to keep.

After consultation with 2 different docs i went with the 2nd. She was much more attentive & didnt rush me like the 1st one. She listened & asked questions. After talking about diff implants and my goals she gave me 450cc fillers. They didnt seem like they would be too big. She actually said she would recommend 475cc. I told her my expectations and i do think we will be able to come to an agreement and make the best choice while im in surgery. She said she will put the size of choice in and if it is not what she thinks it is the look we discussed she will put a different size in. Im leaning more toward 400-425cc. My friends that have went to her were very hapoy with their surgery. One girl went with the bigger size she recommended and was very happy she did. It's hard to go off of other people bc each implant looks different on everyone. The day of surgery i was very confident i would come out looking great. Dr. Quigley made me feel comfortable and confident about ny procedure. She came in and asked if i was still on w the sizes we doscussed and asked me what cup size id like to be. She ended up going w 450cc. Although im not all healed up i think they are going to fo perfectly with my body and what i was wanting. Im glad i let her make the final decision.

Don't panic too much, they are not as big as you think they will be. I had 450cc and I was super nervous! My PS said I could go up to 560! I was like...noooooo way! But to be honest my boobs don't feel or look massive, you will be surprised how normal and natural they will look. Good luck x

Yea mine suggested going to 475 but she ended up going 450 cc and i beleive i will be very pleased with them. They are high anf swollen right now. But i do think once they drop and fluff they will be perfect!

It's like watching paint dry waiting for them to drop and fluff isn't it lol I keep waking up thinking...maybe today is the day! Guess we need to be patient and wait it out. 450 is a great size I think you will love them :)

Yes it is! My friend says she can see daily changes but it's hard for me to tell but i know it'll happen sooner or later !

I'm the same! My partner tells me all the time they are changing but it's definitely harder to see the changes. I shall be keeping a watch on your progress :)

My partner is working on the road right now and he didnt know that they started out so high on some ppl lol so he wasnt liking them at 1st. I told him how they have to drop amd fluff & there is no reason for us to judge them yet lol
December 12, 2016
A friend of mine just said the same thing last week! She said they don't look as swollen, which I was relieved to hear! :) I'm still self-conscience about wearing a tank top. I bought a ton of Under Armour t-shirts for now. ;) Heading out to get some fitted long sleeve workout shirts soon too. It's COLD in our new gym!! Maybe I should pick up some petals too…

Hi there think we had surgery just a day apart so thought i'd just check in and say hope you are doing well and have a smooth recovery!
December 12, 2016
We're very similar! I was a 34C before kids (nursing filled them up to a 34D) and then after the second baby they went down to a saggy sloppy A/B. I'm heavy into fitness (it's fun for me) and so I'm with you, I wanted to get back to my old size, but I didn't want to look like a cast member of Mulan Rouge. ;) I ended up with 350cc and to me they feel HUGE, but I'm only 6 weeks out, people tell me there's still swelling in there and that they still need to drop (which will make them feel 'smaller').

Im 7.5wks and mine still feel huge. Just got to get use to something actually being there. Mine have moved a lot but i know they still got some moving to do! Mine still have some dropping to do
December 14, 2016
Mine *just* started to drop a little this past week. I saw my surgeon yesterday for a 6-week post-op checkup and she said she was worried about me at the 3-week mark because they were still really high, she didn't know if they'd drop at all… O.o

I'm relieved that she's happy with where they're at now, and that they're finally moving down. I wonder if it has to do with strong pectoral muscles holding onto them tighter than other people (who don't work out hard)? Who knows. I bet yours will look fantastic by the 3 month mark. :)

Yea, mine acted kinda surprised at 1st. Ive seen her 2 times since my surgery. After my 1st visit she said they should drop a lot but they didnt... not a whole lot anyways but she said she wasnt worried about anything. I think w my next visit in jan, which is about 1.5 month from my last, she will be even more happier w the results.
Btw i deadlifted tonight over 200 and i was very surprised. Everything felt great. I went up slowly but i got really close to my max. I was surprised bc i figured it wld bother me w such heavy weight but it didnt!
December 15, 2016
Wow, it didn't pull on your chest at all? Were you able to release your chest muscles from doing any of the work? I'm feeling just how much I use my pecs with everything. I did biceps today, felt my chest working a little too hard and tried pulling back on activating those muscles.
User Avatar
December 15, 2016
I felt a little activation in my L pec. Other than that everything felt great. I started w low weight and just kept going as long as everything felt fine and it did. I feel good today, just body soreness but nothing extra in my chest area.
Yea, it's a weird feeling to get use to. I can tell that im getting use to feeling them activate or it's slowly going away with the healing.

Hi ! Please keep posting. I'm in the exact same situation. Our stats are similar and our boobs are twins for sure haha. I'm also a weight lifter. My PS has suggested 450-500 cc over the muscle. Most of the research I've seen has suggested over the muscle for athletes. Why is yours suggesting under ?
User Avatar
October 14, 2016
She said it would give me a more natural look and over time hold up better. She did tell me i had big pec muscles, a long w the other surgeon. She told me she thinks 475cc would look good for me but im thinkin im not goin to go more than 450
User Avatar
October 23, 2016
Keep in mind you lose a little cc's going under so the 475 wouldn't really make a difference, it would probably give u the 450 look so I would suggest the 475!

We ended up yoing w 450cc!
October 15, 2016
Not long for you now! I keep having weird dreams too. Main ones being- they don't look any different in size. Or i have the implants pushing my skin out but with my small boobs sitting on top, kind of like a double boob!!!

I'm sure they are perfect! Once the healing process takes place, they will fill out perfectly!!! 450 is a good choice especially going under the muscle. I did 350/375 high profile and I have a 300-325cc look.

And going under the muscle does create more of a natural look, just a little more discomforting healing process based on the implant being tucked under the pecs My doc told me I have tight and thick pec muscles so mines were packed tight! But feel great now!!!

Well i just got home. Pain isnt too bad just constant pressure. I basically dressed myself and the nurse said i was acting like i hadnt even had surgery. I rated my pain 2/10. Im sure itll increase with time. Doc ended uo going w 450cc. I dont want to judge them bc i know they will def drop but right now they r at my collarbone. Right now im in the recliner and just relaxing. Just got a lot of stiffness.

Oh yea we r basically the same. Ill keep posting pics and daily updates. Its's almost been 24 hrs and still no real pain. Just soreness. I was goin to have to wait until december but thankfully i got it moved up. Especially since i got the loan approved.
I think this size will end up being perfect. If anything it's much more than i had before lol
