After 16yrs, 2 kids, 4.5yrs of breastfeeding, escaping an abusive marriage, I have finally found myself again and FINALLY have the chance to have the 'boob job' I've been craving!!
I've never researched something so much in my life!!! I started out wanting a particular cup size, then realised it doesn't work like that, then started researching volume and now I'm just ready to ask my PS what will fit best in my body to give me the 'look' I want to achieve.
Ill accept the cup size for whatever it turns out to be - as long as I don't look like Dolly Parton!!! ( . )( . ) LOL
I am lucky enough to have a best friend who has secured the credit for me ( I went bankrupt through my divorce) and now that I am back at work, I can actually afford it! I feel very blessed!
So, I thought I would document my journey here, starting from now, 2 weeks out from my initial consultation with the 3rd surgeon. (Did NOT like the other 2). I'm an RN and extremely picky!! Tee hee
So, I would ultimately like to be a full B small C - if the world were perfect and I could just choose a cup size. I have completely changed my view on what implant shape, texture and fill.
I am hoping my surgeon agrees, as I would like to go with round, smooth, silicone gel, under the muscle.
Lets see what he says on the 29th!
Anyhow, I'll get to taking some pre-op pictures (rather mortifying!!) and will post them soon.
Thank you all for letting me share my journey with you. I look forward to all advice, tips and suggestions you may have!!

Thank you for starting your journey on RealSelf! It's exciting to hear how you've taken control of your life and you're now walking the path to your dreams. Good for you! Your research has taught you a lot. You're right, it's not about the cup size or cc's it's what type and size implant fits best on your body frame. Here are several links that you may find helpful:

Hi Beth.
Thanks for the links, I will make sure to go through them all!
I must say I have found most of my information from RealSelf. Very informative and helpful. I have so far learnt a bucketload and look forward to continuing to share my Boobjourney with you!

My Favourite Wish Photo...

So far, after perusing MILLIONS of images, these are my current favourites. I like the shape and projection, slightly full but not 'balloony'. I will post more as I find them - but not too many!

Hi there, always nice to see a fellow aussie! can't wait to watch your progress. Just a tip that you will probably see over and over again on here, when picking your size it's usually better to go that little bit bigger. I went with 45cc more than I thought I wanted and it turns out this size is perfect for me and I'm very glad I didn't go any smaller. Good luck!! :)

Hi there!
I have noticed that most women have been told to go just that bit bigger than what you think.
I got caught up in the whole - OMG! That volume is HUGE! But when thinking about it in proportion to your breast base width - BWD? - you realise that a larger volume doesn't always mean massive boobs!
I did a cursory width check which came out to about 14cm so I am assuming that is extremely inaccurate, BUT will wait to see what the Surgeon says.
Like I said, I have finally come to terms with the fact that my bra size may be bigger than I thought I wanted, but at the end of the day, if my boobs are the size and shape I've been after then what's the problem?!
:)
Looking forward to sharing my experience!!

I am just beginning this journey as well! I look forward to seeing how things progress as ou "stats" are similar. Best of luck!

See my journey, I am a few hrs older and the same startup size, now likely a full blown small c (measurement happens for me at six weeks post op ) and I am so happy I did this! I removed some of my pix but have no problem sharing through pm if that helps. Best wishes xo

Hi. Welcome to the party of crazy ladies. I am 12 days post op still battling the crazies of I can't believe i did it, and actually slowly beginning to think they may just be awesome :)
I was attracted to your post because I too am post abusive marriage. But I have 4 kids, breastfed them all!!
Back when I got married, boobies weren't the craze they were, so I actually never thought about it at all, until re-entering single life and seeing how much the world has changed and how boob focused everyone has become. So I guess now I'm boob focused too :)
Best of luck - beautiful wish boobs. I agree, they look perfect

Hiya Random!
I've been 'boob-focused' since I was 18 and realised I wasn't actually ever going to develop like the other girls.
My pregnancy & breastfeeding boobies ROCKED, but alas, they are long gone.
I will post some b4 pics after I have booked my surgery date - hopefully I can do that soon after seeing the surgeon next week! EEEK it's actually happening!!!
Good luck with your post op recovery, I'm off to check out your tatas now! :)
