"Btw" Posted by brunette1986 2 October at 12:40
i was a small 32b large a prior to ba. and had 340 cc..
i am quite small size 8, 5ft 4, weigh about 9 stone and altouth it sounds heavy its more where i work out so much.
i feel rather stretched so if ur smaller than me, unless u hav had kids/have a lot of space in your breasts now i would not recommend bigger as u will feel very stretched...
listen to ur surgeon..

Hi Brunette,

"Hi lulu - yep i've tried the rice" Posted by aussieangel 2 October at 23:52
Hi Lu
I have tried the rice test but only around the house! I'm terrified of rice spilling out of a laddered sock at work!!
I tried to measure out 300grams in one, and 260grams in the other to balance my real ones out but they look pretty similar! (The actual implants are noticeably different though).
I tried them in a C sportsbar bra and it felt really uncomfortable so the next day I tried them in a D sportsbra and that felt much better.
I still think the 300 looks too big on me though! I feel like I'm trying to be Jordan even though hers are about 10 times the size!!! But you know what I mean.
Now I'm thinking I might go for 260 in both boobs - and just live with one being a bit smaller!!
Oh my days, only 4 sleeps to go!

"Rice test" Posted by rachhaff 2 October at 12:00
I think I need to try this...how do you do it? Still undecided about sizes, I'm driving myself mad! Not sure wether I'm more nervous or excited.... Rachel x

"Rice test" Posted by lulu5597 2 October at 13:21
Hi Rachel, To do the rice test you need to measure out in ml the same amount of rice as your implant, for example 340's = 340ml. Fill a pop sock with the rice to make your implant and simply wear them in your sports bra. I still cannot decide either, and am too driving myself mad! Think its going to be 380s though

"I'm in for the week run up rice test!" Posted by lulu5597 29 September at 09:42
Hey aussieangel
I tried the rice test all yesterday and it was fine. Nobody said anything and by the end of the day I felt really comfortable with my new shape.... I was a little scared of spilling rice all over my desk at work though hi-hi.
Pop sock are like tights but just the foot / sock part. Let me know how you go with your rice test

"Aussieangel" Posted by shannel010 28 September at 19:26
Hey,
i'm still not sure what to do either but i think i'm leaning more toward the 260cc purely for the natural factor, i want to be comfortable with the way they look and feel and i think thats the best bet.....but you watch, i'll change my mind again cos i'll prob get greedy! lol
It is a hard decision and only one that you can make really!Keep doing the rice test and see what your most comfortable with.
I've got 5 days to go to make my final choice.ahhhhh

"I'm having small ones too!" Posted by angelcake47 2 October at 22:09
i'm due to have 255 unders which i hope will take me to a full b or small c. to be honest i don't really understand bra sizes as i've never been able to wear one before. my ps said i don't need any bigger as i have a fairly small frame. i'm 5ft 6, 7.5st size 8. does this sound about the right size for me?

"Yay for small ones!" Posted by sunflowers10 3 October at 20:55
Sooo glad other people are having smaller implants as well! I had a consultation on Monday and the surgeon said the biggest he would recommend would be 275 as I don't really have the room for any bigger and if I went bigger they would start to look fake and stretch my skin too much. I'm 5ft 8, 9st and a size 8/10 on top. I said I'd like to be a good C or a small D. I tried 240's and they filled a C cup sports bra and the 275 almost filled a D cup bra. I think from reading on here you always lose a bit of the size when you have unders so 255 sounds about right for what you'd like.

"Decisions......" Posted by lulu5597 28 September at 13:04
Hey ladies,
One thing you could try is the rice test before deciding which size implant (its a little strange as it involves filling pop socks with rice and wearing them in your post opp sports bra!!!) Anyway Im trying to try and get used to how Im going to feel with my new assets Im agonizing too, either 340s / 380s??? Cannot wait to meet you all next weekend, its so nice to know were all going through it together.
Hands up whos getting excited me me me!!!
Lulu xxxxxxxxxx
