Implant size using the rice test

Hi everyone,

My ps said to me to do the rice test to decide what sized implants I want so I can give him a range to work with on the day. I bought a 34D sports bra today and liked 300g rice bags. They filled the bra pretty well. I think I'll be a 32 band afterwards but thought it was best to get a bigger band for the swelling.

My stats are;
height 5"5'
weight 9.5 stone

Do you think this will give me the results I want? I'm having round unders and would like to be a D cup. He has said that on the day he will take into consideration the size I want but if I choosen too big or small he will use the sizer to get the right size. Thanks! xxx

Tht sounds about right to me, are you an A to begin with?
Im wanting 34D-DD and im looking at 340-380cc. Ive made the rice boobies and just totally cant decide!! I think im just gonna have to see the surgeon on the day and ask him what he thinks. I read alot of posts on here of girls saying they wish they had gone bigger, but ive thought that if I end up dissapointed with the size id rather that its coz they are smaller than expected than bigger, coz I can always still push them up if I want them to look bigger for certain tops.
Your surgeon sounds nice tho. Good luck for the big day xx

I found doing the rice test was not a good indication of how they turn out. I found when I did 380g of rice they looked massive. I went with 410cc/g and my boobs are not as big now as the rice test made me look.

Ive never heard of the rice test ?

Can someone enlighten me ?

I have time to experiment B4 my BA

xxxxxxxx

I thought I was a 34b and then I measured myself and I came up at a 34a! : ( I did know my bras were too big as they were tapping but it was still depressing!

Missf1 I did ask him about that because I'm having unders and I'd read on here that it pushed them down but he seemed to think it was a good indicator. I think it's just to give him an idea and he will put in what fits best on the day. I've emailed his secretary the size I want as I want a fair idea before the day what I'm getting. Im the same as you Immie, I'd rather they were slightly on the small side than too big.

I felt like a little girl playing dress up with my huge bra and bags of rice!! Can't wait till I actually have boobs!! Ha ha!!

The rice test is making rce bags, with rice and tights to get a rough idea of size. If you put rice test in the search box you should find loads of links to it I'm not very good at explaining things. Xx

my BA is on monday and im currently a 32a and will be having 300cc fully unders. im hoping to be a 32d. if you message me on tuesday ill let you know how fitting into my 32d sports bra goes :) xx

Hi Kayleigh, I don't know if I'll be able to message you as I'm still a newbie but I'll definitely look out for your progress! Lots of luck with it!! Your at spire too, I'm having mine done at the Gatwick park spire! Xx

im sure when im home ill be on here to share how it went. i cant wait! although were at diffenent spire's, ill let you know how they were too, ive heard good things :) xx

Hey hun have to agree here with misf1 as i tried rice test and though my god they will be huuuuge with the cc i chose, id say take off and inch or 2 off how they look to get a better idea of end results! x

I know 3 people who have been to spire and they are really happy so hopefully we both have good experiences too!

That's interesting jimmy and missf1, I thought the 300cc looked really good but maybe they'd turn out a lot smaller? My op isn't until sept so I think I'll go for another consultation before to double check size! Its so hard choosing as it's not an exact science! Thanks for all your comments xx
