Okay, I've always wanted to have breast to feel like a woman and when I finally knew I stopped filling in any more bras I knew I wasn't a lucky one. So I wear a 34 B but more than likely im just a A cup. I was a B before I had my two kids. Then they seemed to disappear. So I went in for a consultation and tried on sizers and decided to go with 350 CCs but now I'm nervous that I didn't go big enough. Which I don't want to look like Pam Anderson or anything. I just wanna feel naturally big. Dr wermerling and her office is really nice and made me feel really comfortable, even though I was kind of embarrassed. I'm really nervous about the surgery!! More nerveous about how I'll feel immediately after I wake up. Any comments would be appreciated!! Only 9 more days to! I need something to keep my mind off of it but instead I'm staying on this website reading reviews! Lol
But anyways the only person I know that has had this for is my aunt. She went from A to a D or DD not sure but I'm not really telling anyone until my surgery is over. I don't need all the "oh your perfect the way you are!" crap! And from what I remember she was really sick! And in severe pain. She had hers done in FL. But they look good now. But I have all my meds filled and blood work done, all I have left to do is get stool softeners and wait! My children are 2 and 5 months! So not lifting will be a struggle, my sister is coming to stay with me. I will keep updates as often as possible & will upload before pics soon!

I saw you posted in a comment that you are 5'9 and 118 lbs. If that's correct, I think 350 cc will be a good size for you! You are obviously quite thin, so if you went too big it would most likely look pretty fake. I got 350 ccs and although some days I wish I went bigger, I think they are the perfect size for a 'natural' look. (I am 5'8, 125 lbs). And don't worry about the recovery, the meds really help, and it's all worth it! Just remember to be patient - I'm almost 7 weeks post-op and my breasts still aren't completely settled. The process takes time! Good luck :)

I'm 5'6" and 130lbs and I went with 400cc under the muscle and now am a full c. I was the same breast size as you to begin with. Are you going with saline or silicone? Under or over your muscle?

I got muscle relaxers (Valium) along with my pain killers, but I think all doctors are different. And don't worry about the car ride home - I don't even remember mine! I am sending you positive vibes for a good surgery! If it makes you feel any less nervous, my surgery was super easy: the worst part for me was the IV actually (I have difficult veins). I wasn't nauseous at all waking up, and I was actually able to go to the bathroom on my own when I got home, lift a glass of water, eat dinner etc. I was loopy from the drugs, but other than that, pretty normal. I'm sure you'll do fine. You're young, so I honestly think that helps (I'm 23). And you've had kids, so you've been through way worse than a BA!

Yeah I'm sure birthing the two girls was harder! And I had them naturally so yeah! Haha I guess the surgery word it's self is intimateing! & I'm worried about capsular contraction! Paying all this money then if they had to come out! Ahh! So happy it's one day away now! I'm ready for it to be over with already and get recovered and go bra shopping and enjoy it for the first time! :)

Hi! The first day or 2 are not that bad - physically. It's the 3-5 days which were the worst for me. But mentally the first 2 days were really rough. I questioned myself on what I had done ... seeing these projectiles on my chest. I couldn't take a deep breath or cough as it hurt my ribs. Thank goodness I only sneezed once during that first week! LOL. The muscle relaxers help ease the pain of the skin expanding and calm the peck muscles. It also helps you to sleep. I too got Valium (diazepam .5mg). Ask your PS for a Rx. Get your pillows arranged on your bed before you leave so that you are propped up comfortably (if that's even possible, snirk). I found that taking Dramamine for the first 4 days helped with any nausea. Vicodin can cause this, so be sure to take with food. And it really helped with any car rides to the PS! We are neighbors! I am living in Cincinnati so waving hello from over the river.
