Boob greed/not big enough

Took my bra off last night, I know I shouldn't but really wanted a peek. Wish I hadn't now, I really feel that they don't even look any bigger like I look maybe a B at best  
Feel so disappointed and I burst out crying after if looked last night. Don't think it helps that the friend I had told you about previous (the one I think was acting s little jealous) said yesterday 'oh there not that big are they' 

Feeling so low girls   

aw we ALL feel like that or atleast 99% of is do but i promise as thins settle etc they do get "bigger" or seem to feel and look that bit bigger

big hugs xx

Thanks it's really got me down Hun, can't even stand to look at the pics, just writing this has made me cry. Just feel like I've wasted so much money. 

Xxx

Apparently - I can not remember due to the anasthetic - in recovery my PS came to see me and asked what I thought. He said I looked down and said "they don't look much different to me!!!"  how embarrassing! Trust me to say it to the man that had just operated on me!

Anyhow,  they do look much bigger, but I didn't see it to start with. 

Give it time and I am sure you will feel differently as the weeks pass. 

Xx

Aww sorry to hear your suffering a bit of boob greed...
Look at pre op pictures to see how far you have come!
And right now they are still being held so tightly to your chest where your body isn't used to them, over time they will drop and fluff and may go up a size...
Try not to be upset, when your out of the sports bra your feel much better as they are being held down also by that so you have things to look forward to! Xx

Oh chicken you're only a couple days post op!!!! 390's are a large implant babe, I don't think you can be as small as you think.

Bare in mind you've still got GA in your system and that can make you feel poohey, down and negative.

Its way way too early to start judging your boobies honey - I'm 7 weeks and its too early for ME to judge my boobies.

Try not to be negative darling they've got a massive amount of changing to do - I'm certain 6 months down the line you'll be scolding yourself for wasting so much time feeling so bad. I know I do, I was so down and miserable my first week post BA - looking back now (being A LOT happier with my boobies) I know it was just wasted time and energy - but also very difficult to avoid doing.

Cheer up chick  xx

you will and I really do mean it feel so so much better the turn of next week

I woke to a mono boob lmoa honestly it was awful I was so swollen

I think that sometimes we have an image of what we think we will wake up to and when we dont we get worried or upset but you will feel diff towards them soon xx

The perception is having these amazing looking big natural looking boobs early post op and the reality is early post op, they're far apart, hard stuck on and have no movement . 

They WILL settle hunny and at 2days post op you're nowhere near seeing a final result. 

Trust be a b cup will NOT fit you with 390cc implants! I had 380cc and ended up a d/dd. From nothing! AAA at best.

So please don't over analyse them at this extremly early stage. The ga and the whole ba journey can make you very emotional and it's a roller coaster ride. 
Over the next few weeks and months you will see a massive difference and I'm sure once settled and healed you'll be over the moon with them hunny xxxx 

Thanks girls. Had a bath and done my hair so feeling a little better. Your all so nice, I know I'm just being silly but I can't seem to rationalise myself. 

Suppose just as before it's all a waiting game 

Xxx

Hey,

Just for a comparison I tried on an old 32 c cup bra and even though I could do it up the cups looked rediculous onnmy new boobs (didn't even cover half of my boobs!!!!!!!!

Don't worry over it they'll relax in their own good time.

Hope that has made you laugh!!!!!!!

Didnt think of that just put my 34B bra over and it looks smaller so feel a little better, thanks rach, and the rest of you girls. Glad I've got you xxx

Glad your feeling a little better... at 2 days post op your most likely very emotional anyway ( I know I was haha) so its a lot to take in but yer, just don't analysis them too much yet... we have a long way to go xx

See, it's not so bad, keep a old bra as a keepsake to show how far  you've come and also when you're feeling low try to remember what you were like before you had boobs!!!!! 
At first mine seemed huge and looked stuck on ( had rounds) now nearly three weeks post op I love them, plus they don't disappear into my sides now like they did when lying down

Sending you a big hug         ! X  Try not to think too much about your boobs and how they look 
at the moment, as others have said everything is being held tight by swelling etc, all the amazing changes are yet to come on your journey to having a fab pair off boobs! After effects of the GA and the excitement off the build up to your BA can leave you feeling a little flat and emotional in the 1st week post op! I promise in the coming weeks and months you are going to love your new boobs and no way are you going to just be a B cup, I have 345cc implants and am now a 30e/f depending on bra, have trust in you surgeon if you have shown him pics pre op of the look/size you were after I,m sure you won't be disappointed , so hang on in there huni! XXX

 I felt really gutted for your first reading this..... then I read the replies... all sound sooo true

 
 But 390 is a great size implant and like the others said I too am possitive they will settle and be a super size! I have read lots of people just after think "oh-is that it " But after just 10-14 days things can be very differnet and get better with each passing week.

 FAB tip to hang on to an old bra and try over your new ones!!!
I will deff do that.
I am worried of going too small but Definately don't want to be dissapointed either.
 
As for your friend....I expect to have a couple of "jealous" friends. Already one of mine has been very unsupportive almost showing disgust towards a boob job.....
But it must of been quite hurtful to show her and her to say that to you   I think she'll be surprised when you show her again in a few weeks or so 

I have had a GA before and felt down and rubbish for a good few days to a week almost. So you will perk up soon, don't worry.

Happy healing and I look forward to you posting to tell us how FABULOUS they are, once settled:dance: 

xx

soz that dance at the end was meant to be :::: 

you've gone from a 34b (meaning you had a good amount of breast/fatty tissue to begin with!) to having 390cc, you will NOT stay a B cup trust me, like the rest of the ladies said it's just the GA and general psychological stuff stressing you out, i was feeling horrible on day 3 i was crying just like you thinking omg whyyyy did i do this

i think we underestimate the patience a boob job really needs, we expect to just wake up with a fabulous rack but in reality your body just went through a major surgery and is trying to come to terms with it, i know it can feel tight and uncomfortable and you feel useless and horrid for the first week but trust me, it gets better! and look how long ago it was i had my BA, not even two weeks ago! don't worry yourself too much hun, try to sleep it off and keep on top of your paracetamol and antibiotics, eat good food to give you energy. the swelling will go down, your chest will relax, you'll be able to start sleeping better, doing things normally to the point where you don't notice your boobs, then one day you'll look down and be like OOPS! i dropped and fluffed? when did that happen??

sending you lots of love and hugs and positivity, just know when you're feeling down you can come and post here and we will understand and try and make it better   

That's a good idea Rach. Charlee I hope you feel better soon, I'm sure it's just the ga and your boobies will change so so much.

Cheer up and big hug  

X

Thank you so so much girls your all so sweet! I do feel so much better for coming on here been reading all your replies to my mum and she said what wonderful boobie pals I have :)

Huuuuugggeee hugs to you all!!!! 

Like you all say it's just the GA and being all emotional. As for my friend she possibly needs to learn if you can't say anything nice don't say anything at all... 

Just come back from shopping bit of retail therapy makes everything better, plus I was a little naughty went into the lingerie section in next and just held a couple of different cup sizes up against me (I know I'm still swollen and stuff so won't be proper representation) but I fitted a 34DD! Trying not to be too excited about that as I know it's subject to change but it has perked me up a little

Xxxxx

Aww that's great you're feeling better. Whit woo 34DD I hope that stays the same for you. 

Hope you keep feeling better over the coming days xx

Glad the shopping made you feel better and showef you that you ate nigger than yoy realise.  I was wearing 34b before op had 330cc and at 6 weeks Bravissimo measure me at 30gg and I was thinking they dont look very big lol!

Like the girls have said you still have lots of healing and changes to go through yet.

Keep us posted on your progress x

excuse typos. ......damn phone!!

          

 Loads of hugs hun!!!

It WONT be a 'b' cup!!!

I had my consultation on fri and PS 1st tried on a 380cc to get me to full 'c' cup ...

Then i remembered all the ladies here had said about cup size just been a perception - its how ur new boobies sit and feel on you (when you are properly healed) that makes the whole diff ..

Alot of shops offer different sizes so its just how does it look on u.. and right now you cant tell ..

My PS actually 'cellotapes' your new boobies in place for the 1st week ... no sports bra no nothing - just a huge thing like a huge cellotape ..

so i def wont be seeing my new boobies in the 1st week ..

it will settle and I really cant wait to hear how you feel in the next 2 months when they have started to settle ...

huge hugs hun

You have come a long way - it takes GUTS / Boldness and lots of determination to have a BA - its not a walk in the park and we do pay a hell lot of money + pain to have this twinnies ..

so your nasty friend (pardon me) is gutless and senseless ... and i bet if she could be you - she will switch places in a second!!

Take care hun

Thanks girls, think as the days go on I am feeling better, just a combination of all the things your not prepared for post op! 

But you girls have got me by and made me feel so much better.

I've been walking holding my shoulders forward (not sure why) and last night my mum and aunt we're like straighten up and when I did you could even see my new assets through my jumper!! :) 

Feeling much better girls  

Xxxx

That's good!! I hunched a lot at first... Everyone told me to straighten up and I was worried I would stay like that! When I stood straight it hurt (my nipples were so sensitive lol so hunching made me feel like the bra wasn't as tight?!) but at about day 15 I suddenly stopped doing it and I can safely say the boobs do show up more haha!

Glad your feeling better all the time xx
