anyone else get bigger instead of smaller during healing process? - JustBreastImplants.com Forums - Breast Augmentation, Breast Implants, and Plastic Surgeons

I'm only 16 days post-op, but I'm a little confused. I thought my boobs would shrink, but instead they seem to have gotten bigger over the past couple of days. I bought a bra last week that fit me really good, but now I'm practically falling out of it. Did anyone else get bigger instead of smaller? I'm not complaining...just wondering.

FYI: I have 350cc(L), 360cc(R), smooth, round, mentor, OVERS.

I got bigger as I dropped and fluffed too.
I bought a couple of bras 3 weeks after surgery and a few weeks later I was spilling out of them.
I did learn a valuable lesson though, not buy expensive bras until I was completely done dropping and fluffing.
On the other hand, it's not so bad getting bigger I was happy with that.

I, too, got bigger and had to buy different bras. Not quite that soon, but it did happen.

Hope you love your new size!

Thanks ladies. I feel better now. I was beginning to think I might be imagining things.

Is it the norm to get bigger. My big day is Sept.11th and I actually go in tomorrow for my pre-op and I have to decide on my size. I am an A in one and a B in the other right now. I want to be a nice C so that way I'm bigger but not Dolly Parton bigger.....lol.... So as we were trying on different sizes the Dr. suggested a small C but I said to go bigger since I have heard so many people say that once they got them they wished they had of.
Considering I chose the bigger C/small D I wouldn't want to go any bigger.

i did get bigger. and have gotten a LITTLE smaller due to swelling SLOWLY going down. but i was supposed to actually be slightly smaller. so i am hoping that they keep getting a little smaller. i am hesitating to buy a bra too.

I'm on day 5 day post op. How long before the swelling goes down? I hope I don't get any bigger!!
