6 days post-op..what size do you think i will be? - JustBreastImplants.com Forums - Breast Augmentation, Breast Implants, and Plastic Surgeons

beccy2 · 08-30-2008, 11:30 PM

Hello all...well I am now 6 days post-op and mostly pain-free now yay! I'm in the sports bra with a band at the top at the moment to push my boobs down a bit cos they are sill quite high up. I have to wear this for a few weeks i think and so I went shopping for another sports bra to wear.

I started out as a 32A, got 425cc Right and 450cc Left in HP (but apparently in this brand it turns out to be more moderate profile). I am 5'6, and was about 118 pounds pre BA. The bra I bought today was a 34D...I really like my size at the moment and I know they are swollen and quite high up, but do you think I will still be a D??

My PS said before the surgery that I should be a good D, I'm just worried I will go down to a C once the swelling goes down? Or do you think when they drop and fluff I will remain a D??

I'm so confused!! I know its silly considering I used to have next to nothing but I really don't want to lose too much of my size and was hoping for a D.

It felt SO good to buy a D cup bra today...NEVER thought i would see that day. I can't wait til I can wear normal bras...I used to get so upset bra shopping cos I could never fill out anything that wasn't ultra padded!!

Hi Beccy,

I got 450's 2 weeks ago, most of my swelling has gone, I think. I didn't lose any size yet. I was also in a D cup sports bra afterwards, with the strap. I had to go an buy a DD a week after, cause the D was too tight. Now I'm an E cup. I think it's because they have dropped down, because of the strap. (I have a love/hate relationship with my strap, LOL!!)

Did you get unders or overs? I have a Yahoo group if you want to apply. I have to put in a couple more photo's today. I don't think you can access my album yet.

Good luck & best wishes!

beccy2 · 08-31-2008, 07:00 AM

Hi thanks for your post that's really helpful...I'm not too sure how to apply to the yahoo groups since I don't have a yahoo account but I'll give it a go! You look great by the way! Very glad to hear u didn't lose any size when the swelling went down. I am only a fairly small D at the moment so maybe I will increase in size when they drop

I got unders though so I probably won't end up as big as you but still I am very happy to hear your results!

Rainbow88 · 08-31-2008, 08:22 AM

Go to the main forum page, under 'private photo gallery', there is a thread that says "new photo's added' my link is there on the 3rd post.

You can also apply to other ladie's photo groups on yahoo.

Just go to the link and apply, then it may be a couple of hours (or a day) & i'll approve you.

Take Care & don't worry!

yasminv1 · 08-31-2008, 09:21 AM

I think you quite possibly should be a D.

What brand implants did you get????

vettegirl · 08-31-2008, 11:49 AM

yes I think you will be a least a D cup.

beccy2 · 08-31-2008, 05:53 PM

I think it was Mentor but I can't remember the type...I just told my PS and the nurse I wanted moderate profile n both him and the nurse (who I saw separately) said these turn out like that. I believe them too cos where they are at the moment (without dropping) is probably where they would stay if they had the effect of a high profile implant. I'll try and remember to ask on my next post-op.

Thanks for the tip Rainbow 88

I'll check it out

hi

make sure to ask for your implant card at your next post appointment. it'll have the brand, model, and fill amount you received on each breast.

congrats on your BA btw!

beckybee · 08-31-2008, 06:31 PM

Mentor HPs have a bit less projection than Natrelle HPs given the same diameter. That is probably what they meant. When you look at a Mentor HP in person (not inside someone), I think it looks less ball like than the Natrelle HPs.

Anways, IMO, if you were a 32A...you will likely end up a 32D or 32DD. My best guess is 32DD or 34D (the sister size). You will definitely, without a doubt, not be a 32C. HTH?

beccy2 · 09-01-2008, 01:49 AM

thanks girls! yay i guess this means i should keep my d

and i will ask for the card at my next post op tmw!

Anjeliq · 09-01-2008, 02:04 AM

Yeah you should be able to retain a D no problem, I had the same issue too but my size didn't go down too much at all. good luck

sparkles73 · 09-01-2008, 02:53 AM

judging from other girl's stories it's reliable to say that you'll still stay a d. however if you get bigger or fuller is up to time.

as time goes on and your boobs change, you'll probably go thru many feeling/thoughts about them. it's all perfectly normal adjusting to your new figure

Hi your stats are practically mine - I had 400 hp unders 4 wks ago, I was a 32A and am now a 32DD!! I've still got to drop a bit more and fluff so who knows what I'll end up??!! I think you will be bigger than a D (based on me) but everyone is different. Congrats on your new
