Okay just wanted to put a quick post for those getting ready to have a BA 
I know I have posted before that I wish I had gone bigger, and I know everyone told me go bigger than you think well.....
3 months out and it seems like they just keep getting smaller its crazy, I will have to wait ten years before I can go bigger oh well until then Victoria Secret here I come LOL

Anyway just wanted to say that right after I did not think I had much swelling but I guess I must have so when all that swellling is gone the bbobs shrink so really think hard about the size you want. Best Wishes

How many CC's did you get Maureen?  Did you tell your surgeon how many cc's you wanted or what bra size you wanted to end up?  I can't imagine being any bigger than a C cup, even heavy I never have been.  Did you go smaller than what you were used to?  Thanks, Robin

Hey Mo,

I am scheduled for BL/BA on 2/26 and just had that same discussion with my hairdresser tonight. She said to make sure I go large enough. I am currently a 36DD, so I don't want to be bigger or smaller but I want the fullness/cleavage after the lift. My surgeon will use a small implant, but I cannot decide on saline or gel. What type of implants did you go with?

Thanks for the post!

Well if you are a DD I would say stay the same - I went with the Mentor Gummy Bear implanrs
So far I do love how natural they are no one can tell I have had work done they look and feel so real- took a few months to get there though only regret I wish I was A full D oh well
Thx for posting

Oh thank God, I feel like mine are huge and wanted smaller.  My Dr. said I'd probably be a 34 full C cup which would be perfect, hope they shrink up soon.  I have 300cc high profile Mentor gummy bear implants.  How many weeks out are you, what size implant and what bras size are you right now?  I'm still in my compression bra and garment so I have no idea what actual bra size I am but they look huge.

My implant was 350cc I am a full C cup small D 34-
I got the Mentor Gunnies too. I am 11 weeks out and they probably hit the size they are now at about the 9-10 week mark which is also the time they felt more real and soft. I am really happy with the implant and the doc gave me exactly what I asked for I was so scared of them being too big - SO I really have nothing to complain about. Hang in there they will settle down.

Funny, mine actually seem larger. Maybe it's because I'm no longer wearing the sports bra and can do regular bras. I let my Dr. decide on what size to do, I just said I wanted to be in proportion to my body. Was about a B/C pre-op and said I would be happy w/ a full C. Now that all is said and done when I got fitted for a bra I was now a 36D. My Dr. used 243cc saline implants. Said there was one size up that he could have done but these looked the best in his opinion.

I'm completely happy w/ how I look and wouldn't want to be any bigger.

That is great Sonya that you are happy with them I guess size is always just a personal preference I am truly happy with everything else just wish they were slightly larger. Thx for posting
