Did yours look bigger when u tried them on? pissed off

[Karim1803]

Everything I've read said i would feel this way and I was just hoping I wouldnt. I feel upset.. like I shouldve gone bigger... when I tried on my implants they looked bigger then they do now . My surgery was just yesterday so I know it takes time, but I don't want them to get smaller. it's just making me so upset.
When you tried yours on did they look bigger then they did once they were put in? I just hope when my drop n fluff they dont lose size. When I tried them on , My nurse said they should be about that size once they were in me but I think they looked bigger then they do now and right now their even all swollen. i am trying to not think about it and let time pass but i cant help it! :-(

They looked bigger when I tried them on too. The only difference is that the nurse told me that they would actually be a bit smaller once they were put in becuase of going under the muscle.

[Karim1803]

i thought that too..but when i asked her she told me they should look about the same because i was trying on silicon and getting saline and that silicon gave more so they should look the same? something like that , i dont remember. i just dont want them to get smaller.. :-( im pissed i didnt go even bigger now.

They change SO much. In no way is this your final outcome or size. Especially with unders they 'pop' out more and more as time goes on, (typically A LOT more) but even with overs I noticed them getting bigger a few weeks on. I gained an entire cup size from day 1 till now.
Take photos, it helps you mark the progress.

The ubiquitous answer: give it some time.

Oh, sweetie, I know this is a difficult time. I also was surprised at how small and flat they looked. Now I am one month po and they are really coming along. I know it's hard, but you've got to give it time. You have to give your body time to adjust to your new girls. Your muscle will relax within the next few months and allow your implants to really come to life (d&f). Hang in there. It will get better, I promise.

Mine looked smaller right after surgery. I went in with an A and measured a C after. I wore a C sports bra and C in VS stretch triangle bras, as well. I am 2 weeks post op and am now wearing a D sports bra. I went bra shopping and I can now fit a D cup in every bra I tried. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any Ds without an underwire, so I'm going online tonight to buy some.
I haven't even begun to fluff yet. I'm hoping for a small DD!
I know it's hard to be patient. But try.

thanks girls! you dont know how much this helps me! my fiance keeps reminding me of the same thing but it's different hearing it from other people that have actually went/going through it. i feel so much better hearing that, i've been complaining already! lol poor Brad..

Another question though... mine arent that close.. the doc said because of my body he got them as close as he could.. did you notice a change in that over time? if they got further apart or closer during d&f'ing? or stay the same? their not TOO far apart so i'm ok with it, just am wondering.

Mine has pretty much stayed the same in terms of cleavage. Maybe that will change in a couple of months, but it hasn't so far... hth

Here's my experience...

When I woke up from surgery they felt huge, like if I had an elephant standing on my chest.

The next day when I saw them for the first time, they looked small

During the next few days they grew because they got swollen.

At about one month post-op they shrinked again because the swelling was gone. This was when boobie greed hit me, and it hit me pretty hard.

During the next months they got softer and then they finally D&F. This took a long time, I would say more than 6 months. Its like your muscles relax and release the pressure on the implants, and your boobs look wider and easier to move around. Creating cleavage becomes easier. I don't think they actually grew in size, but they look and feel bigger. Or maybe they grew, its just that it happens so slowly that you don't notice it.

So you have to be patient. Your final result is still a few months away. In my case my initial boobie greed went away, I'm happy with them now

It's highly likely that things will improve for you..truly..

Yes, I think the sizers do look bigger on you as opposed to in you..but please be patient..I forgot to look but I bet you had unders, they will probably take a while to settle down, and as your muscles relax, everything else will too..it just takes time unfortunately, please be prepared also for the swelling to go down, and yes, once again, they may likely appear smaller, but as you heal, the breast takes on a better look and feel..


I did feel like you early on..and for most, booby greed strikes hard..please don't lose focus of why you had this done, it was to improve your proportion i guess, or to give you something you've never had, I dont' know, but for me it took quite a few months for me to fully understand and grasp the fact that this is what i was given, and i must make the most of it...I hope you start to feel better soon x

Yes, after surgery I was so upset. I was only able to get so much in because I had literally no breast tissue, and very thin skin. I was given the choice of 304cc or 339cc. I at first said 304 at my consultation but then called to change to 339 because everone said go bigger as you loose a little volume going under the muscle.

Woke up from surgery with 304cc because the care coordinator I guess didn't tell the Dr./OR....not sure exactly what went on there but at any rate I was VERY upset after the surgery.

I felt small...embarassed to tell anyone that I had it done because they would have scratched their head and said "really?".

Well for me, the feeling still lingers on being small BUT I can tell you it is not the extent that it was for quite some months after the procedure. I did get smaller when the swelling went down and I felt even more upset....to the point I cried that I went through that and felt so small (but yet better than being flat chested).

I am now 10 months post op and it has been a LONG, slow change..my muscles are taking a while to let go, I am still noticing they are loosening and it makes me feel better....looking back I couldn't push them together very well, they were a bit farther apart and and JUST now at 10 months when I bend over I love the cleavage I get and just noticed they are actually looking better in the cleavage area at 10 months post op.

Still feeling somewhat small but the way they are softening and can be pushed together so much easier, is a big confidence booster despite the size issue.

Just wanted to let you know I can relate...I am tall too so I think that makes me feel smaller as I have a long chest area and torso.

I do feel aweful for you because I know my feelings lasted and lasted until at least 6 months post op..It's not a feeling I thought I would have after coming from flat as flat can be.

Blue, I am almost 4 weeks post op with overs (saline) and my plastic surgeon (name removed) did not make my right breast larger as I requested with more saline. My right breast has always been smaller and she said that she would add more saline, but did not in surgery. So I am a D cup in my right breast and a DD cup in my left breast. It is very noticable! I am the exact size as I started out with before surgery! I had old silicone implants replaced with saline and now I need to find another surgeon to look even.
My question to you is have you noticed with overs that in time my right (large) breast may go down? Not that I want the breast to go down, but I do not want to be so uneven. I think I would be dreaming to think if the right breast is going to grow larger at almost 4 weeks to catch up with the right breast. I had overs before and I never noticed them going up in size, but maybe times have changed??? This has been the worst experience with this doctor. PS was going to charge me $2,990.00 to add 40 cc's more of saline!!! Or she would charge me close to $4,000.00 for new implants and that is on top of the price I have already paid for this bad looking breast job! Any ideas about my overs I would so appreciate it and I am new on this forum so I hope I am doing everything correctly on the forum. Thank you so much for your help and to all of the ladies of this great forum

Ginger-
now you are a small C? if you got 304 and are a small C, I should be able to get the full C i've been hoping for (and been told i'll get) I am 5'8 but i got 425 HP round unders filled to 450... their HP though so I dont know how different that is in size compared to the mods that you got?
I hope mine start projecting more too!@ ugh im so sick of complaining, im going to try not to look at them for a while! lol

[gaviota]

Karim,

Relax! With 450cc there is NO way you will not reach a C cup. I think you will end up at least a 34D. You just have to be patient. Trust me
