BREAST IMPLANT SIZING 101
Comments

Whipptmom and ladies,
I finally got the PS to tell me what type of expanders that I have: They are Allergan 133MX, 15-15cm diameter, 14 high, 7.6 projection, extra projection, 700cc. I am filled to 750ml now. I like the size, just hate the heaviness, I fell that they weigh 50 pounds, and it is no fun working with patients with them in the way
So, does this mean that to get this look, a D size now, a DD before, that I have to have an 800cc implant? I see the PS next Friday for final fill? How much can you fill these things before they pop?0 -
Carrol: It's kind of like going through puberty but in five minutes, while you watch. I was comepletely fascinated by the whole process.
Rnjules: Most PS's overstretch and they shouldn't pop. Mostly I just hated that it was hard and weird to the touch. They do get the job done. Mine was stretched to 535 and they put in a 550, so they usually go in with a few and whatever looks best, so yes, you could end up with an 800 implant.
KCMom: So glad they were able to get you there so quickly. Congratulations!

MBJ : It is very encouraging to see them get bigger. But if you look at my pics on the forum they are not that much bigger yet. When I first looked down I thought they were but in the pics they only seem slightly bigger. I only got 80cc this time he said next time he would do 100cc.0

Don't worry Carrol, you will get big. I know you're used to big ones.

Hello Whippetmom...
I had my exchange yesterday and was hoping you can impart some advice. I am petite...110 lbs and 5 foot1, I was a very small 34A cup to start. I was in 250 TEs expanded to 330cc. Dr. exchanged for Natrelle 20..350 on one side, 375 on the other side that had multiple biopsies). Incisions made under the fold. I peeked under the surgical bra and gauze today and was shocked to see that I look like I am way smaller than I anticipated. I was hoping for a full B. I am hoping things fill out---is it possible for 350cc's to be less than a B cup!?
Any thoughts appreciated!

takeadeepbreath: Whippetmom will need your measurement under your ribcage in order to help you. Also, do you know the make and model of your new implant? It can take 1-4 months before your new breasts settle in and fill out to the size they are actually going to be so give them time! Most of us look like we have hamberger buns to start but they will change alot.

takeadeepbreath - I can offer my experience ... I'm your weight but about 4 inches taller and my ribcage is 28.5 inches and I was exchanged with 325cc silicone high profile implants. I'm a 'D' cup. But I don't have the projection of a 'D' ... just the width. One day out is no predictor of what you're going to look like. So ... do what you're avatar says! ... take a deep breath and wait it out. MBJ is right ... they will change A LOT over the next few months. 0

Thanks ladies...maybe I should change my avatar/ name to "Neurotic in NYC". Despite reading these boards for months, I was convinced I would peek under the bra to find Jennifer Aniston's boobs not hamburger buns!

LOL TakeaDeepBreath (on the possible new user name

takeadeepbreath: I think Jennifer Aniston might get mad if you woke up with her breasts, lol! Give it time, they will soften and expand some.

Deep breath,just wanted to let you know that mine look like hamburger buns one day out as well! I did hear it takes a bit to really know the size. In fact, I think my PS said to not even bother going bra shopping and getting fitted for 4 months!
I'm sure they will become Jennifer Aniston boobs in no time!

Don't tell her but I am trying to get Angelina Joilie's boobs . . you think Brad would mind?

OMG what am I doing here? I think I'll head back over to the "Implant Exchange (oYo) ~ Anyone go/stay SMALL?? (B cup)" thread. 0

takeadeepbreath- what everyone is saying is true...they change everyday...there is gravity & LOTS of healing taking place over the next months to come...
0 -
Carrol: LOL!
0 -
what do you mean when you say that implants are subject to gravity, my PS says no.
0 -
Rnrules: The only ones that don't do this are the gummy bear implants. It's how the implants finally fall into their proper place and the muscle finally relaxing!
0 -
ditto what MBJ said- gravity has to work or we would all be walking around with oranges/grapefruits/etc on our chests...

thanks girls,
I am really paranoid right about now because I was a former 38DD, and the TE's are 700cc capacity, currently filled to 750cc. I see the PS next week for the final discussion about impant size. I really like the size of the TE's, but of course, hate the TE's! I am reading so many posts where girls feel that their final implant size is to small. Does anyone know how much TE's can safely be overfilled?
0 -
Rnjules, my 275's are filled to nearly double capacity but I think it gave whippetmom a heart attack so don't try this at home. Pics on the forum, awaiting E-day May 23rd. Anxiously!
Have you shared pics, what have others said about the size? Sometimes you can't actually "see" your own foobs, you know. It's commonly referred to as foob blindness and it must be stopped. Full disclosure: I made that last part up.

Rnjules: Give Whippetmom your height, weight, rib cage measures and she will get you to where you want to be!
Cameron: Lol, I have some serious foob blindness!!

hiya RNJ- my TEs were filled to max- 450- the PS took in three sizes of implants and I landed up with 550s- exactly what I wanted and what fit my body.- And Cameron is so right baout foob blindness- I think it takes weeks, possibly months to actually see them - I saw mine clearly yesterday and blinked! I am loving them more and more and more each day- had a cute summer dress lounger thing on last night and hubby cocked his eyebrow and said- you know something? You look really great. What was really cool is that it was one of the moments in everyday when I was not asking him if "they" looked good hahaha
How cool is that?
