I’m 5’6 size 12 and was quite happy with the 380s but I haven’t made a definite decision yet. I’m currently a 34b and the surgeon said I’d need a 38c recovery sports bra, that’s not the size I want to be at all!
So do you all recommend go bigger? As I’d be gutted paying all that money and going through all that pain for something I wasn’t happy with.

hey hun, i dnt agree with that, i think most people do get boob greed tho. at first i wish id gone with the biggest i was offered..380, cz i went with 345, but now im glad i didnt go bigger cz i think they suit my frame as i wanted them to look natural. altho thers nt much in 35cc tho. i think if u do the rice test u get a good idea from that, cz that made me nt wnt to have 380 as they looked too big. xx
What’s the rice test?

Think the reason the surgeon said that size is to make sure they’re fully squashed and supported, not because you’re gonna end up a C cup.
Each 125/150cc is a approx a cup size so you should go up 2-3 sizes x
google the rest test hun n it wil tell u how much dried rice u need to measure for the size implants, and u put it in tights or stockings. gives a rough idea. xx
Hi hun,
The 38c sports bra is just so its not tight around your incisions. If youre wearing a 34 back now, then a 38c will be around the same size as a 34dd xxx
Oh thanks guys x
If your having say 410cc measure 410grams & put the rice in the feet of some tights
hi hollywoodholly, i have similar stats to you, i’m 5’7″ size 10/12 and was a 34b and had 380cc overs. Went into a 36dd sports bra for the first 8 weeks, and now i’m wearing a 34e To be honest i am glad that i only had 380cc – plenty big enough for me and hubby
Good luck with your ba hun xx
hi holly im a 32b and having 380 overs on 17 dec. i also got offered 410 unders but im sticking to the 380 overs cos i want to be a D, or DD at the biggest. i got told to buy a 34dd sports bra? x
Altbarbie – thanks, i’ll try that! x
Tammy – that sounds good, i’m glad you’re satisfied with your results. Do you have any photos by any chance? x
Sara11 – i don’t really get the back sizes and stuff?! i just hope i get sufficient boobage…i’m glad i get to go back though and make a 2nd descision on size. x
