Hello! I'm 30 and have three children. I'm going for my consult Tuesday! So excited. I have been looking into getting boobs ever since I never got any in High School. Now that I have been married for 10 years and done having children thanks to the Ezsure, its finally time. So excited, did I mention that. I'm currently an AA, but wear a 36 A with some major padding. I was wondering though about the healing time and having young children. The boys are 7 and 6, but my little girl is 17 months. Any tips? I have plans to send her to our local daycare for the week after surgery and the boys to ride the bus to and from school as long as I can't pick her up and put her in her car seat! Any other tips would be so helpful!! Thanks a ton!!

Thanks for starting your story on RealSelf! I'm excited for you!

What is EZsure?

Do you know what sort of implants you're getting and when surgery is yet?

January 30, 2013
EZsure is a procedure you can have done not to have any more little ones. They take small springs (like what's in your ink pin) and the place them in your tubes. Over a 3-6 months scar tissue forms and you can no longer bring your ovulation down. Super easy and quick recovery way to sterilize your self!

Hello again! I had my consult yesterday! Went great. I scheduled for February 11th. Right around the corner! I want to do 375-400 cc's. I would like to be a good C. Not sure if i will go silicone or saline yet. Would love some insight. The dr thinks silicone, but i really hate to put that in my body. Do you really have replace it every 10 years? Who really goes and gets a MRI every 3 years? Having no insurance, not sure i want the added expense Saline might ripple, but since i have no boob now, will I care? Ahhh! Any insight would be wonderful. Thanks girls!

Today I booked my hotel, since surgery will be out of state for me :) My best friend called me yesterday and demanded to go with me. Which is so wonderful. The hubby now can stay home with all 3 kids. Saves him from missing work for 2 days to take me and lots of juggling of the kids. So excited she's going with me. Still keep waking up several times a night, worrying about saline or silicone ahhh rippling no rippling!! Just breath I keep telling myself.....

Hey I just had my surgery done by him out of state. Where are you staying? I recommend the Candlewood suites because it has a little store and a recliner (you will thank me later). He did an amazing job, splurge the extra 800 for the silicone

If you are thin at all you don't want saline. I can totally tell the difference in any of my friends. Dr. Hedden's words are those of wisdom

Thank you for your comment! I booked the Dury hotel. It had dinner and breakfest! I did call before booking and they will have a recliner in the room! Thanks again!

Very thin! Size 2 after 3 kids! Can I ask what you choose to use? Silicone or Saline? I'm leading more towards silicone just because he said it would be best and I have wait this long, I want the best :)

The silicone, high profile, 475cc and I am not even very thin just thin. I have had two kids who I breastfed. He said I would be back in 3-6 years replacing the saline with silicone because I am thin and the rippling and outer hardness would definitely happen. Saline is more for those who already have the breast tissue and just want to increase their volume. Silicone is for thin girls who need the implant to look like the natural breast tissue. My one friend is thin with saline and hates them because you see the implant when she wears a bathing suit or even a tank top

Thank you! How was recovery with kids!? Did u drive? I'm worried about the ride home! I live in TN! Only 4 hrs away! I'm think 375-400 cc and medium profile. I would like to be a C!

No I flew in from NYC and had to transfer in Charlotte, so it was a 4 hour flight back with layover, then my bf drove us 45 min from NYC to long island where I live. Wasn't bad, just took a pain pill every 4 hours and had a pulley suitcase and my bf lift everything for me. Honestly, I was fine. I was driving them to swimming, school, dance 3 days later and even picked them up from school two days later. Having another baby with kids around is ten times worse. Having said that my kids are older at 8&11, so I don't have to pick them up or bathe & dress them. I wanted pretty big ones so I got 475cc. I measure a 34D but will probably be a 34 D once I drop and the swelling on the sides goes does down
