I am 5'9.5" about 153 pounds. I have larger frame, definitely larger hips, thighs and butt. I want to be a full C/baby D. The recommended CC for my BWD which is 12.5 is 330cc but seeing as my frame is so much larger we didn't even try those on. I am going back and forth between 421 and 457. The 421's felt the most comfortable and the 457's felt a bit large. I see all sorts of girls on here that have smaller implants that are DD's and I'm scared of that! It makes me want to even go to the 397cc. I'm scared to be too big, I really would not like that, but I don't want to be disappointed if they are too small either. Ugh! I know most people go through this but it's driving me crazy

Who's got the crystal ball? I need it!!!

Congrats first of all!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don't be afraid of numbers and bra sizes. I think we all get hung up on that and all too often it's not a big deal.
Since you are a larger framed woman, a D on you wouldn't look as large as say a D on a 5'2, petite frame. I think it would be more proportional on you.
If you are going back and forth between those 2 sizes, I would go w/ the larger if your PS says it would fit your breast w/o complications. We are talking 36cc's difference...I don't even think that's a tablespoon! It's such a miniscule difference, it's really not worth stressing over. Most of us wish we would have gone a tad bigger anyway ( I know I sometimes do!) Also, by going under the muscle, it can make the implants appear slightly smaller than they do when you are trying them on in your sportsbra at the PS office. When I was deciding...I tried on the 450's and really liked the way they looked and so we decided to go w/ the 500's bc we were going under the muscle. I even told him that if the 550's would work, to go w/ that size, but the 500's worked best for me and I love my results! So, I vote for the larger of the two. Good luck!!!

Girls like me with the 400's and up get the DD because we are so tiny. Truth is my BWD is larger than yours but I am really small. I have a 32 bra band so the 400's will take me to a DD. In a 36 band my size may have gotten me to a C cup. I would definately go with the 421's if I were you to get the C cup you want. And remeber you will lose 15% of the volume once implanted.

im a c cup and am getting 405,and 434cc which im guessing (and i mean guessing, cos i cant believe how different the outcomes can vary from persom to person) i will get to a E cup. but that is OVER the muscle. so if ur going from a B cup u would more than likely get to a D cup, but because your going under its very possible u will be a full C/baby D

In my opinion, go bigger. I am 5.5' and 150lbs. I have a larger frame as well. I went with 421's and in my opinion, I could have gone bigger. Good luck with your choice.
