2 Weeks Until Breast Lift and Augmentation! Yaay - Arizona

Hello I'm new here and excited and nervous...

WORTH IT

Hello I'm new here and excited and nervous I'm scheduled for a lift and augmentation on the 16th!

I'm a 41 year old Mom and feel like now is the time to finally treat myself to this enhancement. I've dreamed since a teen to have larger breasts and after nursing my baby I feel like I could really use this procedure. I just look forward to my clothes fitting better and being a sexier version of myself.

I would love to hear results of ladies who have been through this or who are also waiting anxiously as I am!! I hope to continue to blog my entire journey with you.

Thanks for starting your story with us! We're so happy to have you here. 41 sounds like a great age for this. You're ready and you've waited long enough. Looking forward to reading more...

Ok so I had a great dream this weekend that I had my surgery and saw my new look and was thrilled in my dreams cannot wait for reality.

I wish I could fast forward time and be on the road to my recovery. I think I would not be as anxious if I did not lead the lift too. Two and one half hours of surgery is a lot but after trying on the implants a few times I knew in my heart there was no turning back.

Last week was a relief in that I told my family what I'm doing. I knew they would be concerned and not totally supportive but at least it has sunken in now and we can talk about it and they will all be here for me through recovery. I know they just care and so cannot understand my choice .

My hubby and I cannot wait to go clothes shopping for me afterwards. I can't wait to wear a bikini top!! yahoo! Only 10 days to go!!

Hi Christine!! So can you post your stats, eg, ht, wt, bra size, how many cc's you are going to, saline/silicone etc. I am 38 and it's nice to see someone my age that has a life experience being a mommy and wife. I feel we have worked the hardest to earn our boobies!! (no offense to the youngin's) lol

I'm so glad you're feeling perky! (pun intended)

One thing about the clothes -- I tried on my entire closet about a week after surgery, and it was a mistake. It was just too much stretching and arm movement. Didn't cause any permanent damage, but I'd wait at least two weeks to go shopping and try lots of clothes on at once.

Not that I can blame you if you don't, because I was also at the mall 1 week 1 day after mine and tried on the entire Express store ;) Just saying, in the end, not worth the soreness.

Ps I stayed up late last night and today woke up feeling anxious but krypton breathing deeply and focusing on the end results it helped me a lot .

Ok ladies I'm so glad I finally did this. Im on day two since surgery and doing well. I won't lie I'm hurting and sore but amazed already by my new cleavage! I make sure to stay on top of the pain by taking. Ed's every four hours. My husband is a great nurse to me. It felt great to shower today. I'm not very hungry but am drinking lots of Gatorade. Will post before and after pics soon.
