I am 29 years old, by the time i have this done i will be 30. i have couple kids, one that i breast feed for ten months. They are saggy empty bags. When i wear a bathing suit one nipple pops out cause one breast is bigger then the other. I want to feel sexy with even boobs. I am 34/b looking to go to a D :)

I will be setting up my appointment in January since ill be paying most of this with my tax return.

Im so excited for this!!
So I saw my doctor and Ill be getting 325cc in my right and 350cc on my left, he doesnt think i should do bigger, with the way i am he says it will not look normal if i do. Above the muscle, he says the way my body is that will look best plus i have pectus excavatum,thats where my chest caves in some.
He plans to make my nipples small. they are so big, thank god!
I also have a big mole on my breast that after the surgery he plans to remove , YAY!

Next week i am booking the date, its $500 dollors to hold a date!

Holy Crap 2 more days and a wake up!!!! I am a little nervous cause i never been cut open before , just had smart lipo tho. oh yeah i forgot to say ill be getting a lift too.
my boyfriend is excited, he says its like hes getting new toys to play with haha. :)

So I did it!!!!! had to wake up at 445am and i got there at 7am, everyone was so nice and made sure i was warm and good. went in the surgery room at 830am and wokr up around 12. I was in LOTS of pain when i woke up. i kept crying cause it hurt and couldnt do anything myself. even a button up shirt was hard to put on with help. I need help to sit down and get up. even the bathroom. i left sooo usless all day. perks and mescle relaxers help ALOT. i been sleeping off and on alll day. if you plan to do this deff make sure you have someone to stay with you all day you WILL need help doing stuff.

so it turns out he went under the mescle and not over. not sure how many ccs he went but i think its 400 and 425 on the other. he was talking about maybe going 375 and 420cc cause he thought there is a chance there is a 50cc differnce in one breast but i am not sure yet. ill ask him tomorrow

I do know they look big and i got nice cleavage and my boobs touch. never have i had that sooo nice!!!!!! i cant wait to take the bra off sunday to check it out.

hope you have a recliner at your house. its my best friend right now and its going to be my bed for the week.

Updated on 11 Apr 2012:
went back to work today, 5 days after my BA and let me tell you, i wish i took more time off. i felt like i was gonna die. my chest feels so tight. hard to breath some times. takes out all my energy. and i only did 4 hours. tomorrow i do 6 hours at work and i dont think ill be able to last. i might have to fake sick during the day to leave early. :( i really want my boobs to hurry up and heal. i cant take it anymore. waayyyy worse then lipo for sure!!!!

Updated on 13 Apr 2012:
Day 6 at work was alot better. im starting to feel good. :) i saw the doctor for my post op he said they are looking great! YAY! he took the stitching's out and put some glue and tape on them that i have to wear for a week then after a week i need to put mederma cream on my scars every 12 hours then put new med Beige Silicone Gel Areola Circles NG-120 to help make the scars go away.

he gave me the go to start massaging, you push your breast in, up and down not out. this helps pervent Capsular Contracture, for those who dont know what that is. its the most common complication risk you can get and you can still get it years down the road. like if you get a UTI you could get it. scary huh? Im scared to death of it cause i dont have the money to get my boobs fix ever. i still have to pay this off first. soo...

When breast implants, or any other foreign object, are placed in the body, the body forms a lining around it. This lining, or capsule, is formed by your own living tissue. Many people refer to this lining as the "capsule", "tissue capsule", or "scar capsule", although it is not exactly the same thing as scar tissue. This is the body's natural response to a foreign object.

Capsule contracture, the most common complication of breast augmentation surgery, can happen at any time, but seems to be more common in the first several months after surgery. At the time of the initial surgery, a pocket is made for the implant. During the healing process, a capsule forms, which is comprised of fibrous tissue. The body is genetically programmed to shrink scar tissue somewhat. Under normal conditions, the pocket remains open, thus allowing the implant to look and feel natural. However, in some people, the capsule will tighten, and squeeze the implant. This makes the breast implant feel hard, and distorts the appearance of the breast. In the later stages, the implant feels very firm, and may take on a "ball-like" look. It is important to remember that it is not the implant that has hardened. The shrinking of the capsule compresses the implant, causing it to feel firm/hard. However, once the implant is removed, it is just as soft as it was the day it was inserted

10 days and i feel great. my boobs are very close together and i worry about everything so i ordered online a "thong" bra so i dont get uniboob. ill take a pic when it comes in the mail.

so i couldnt wait and had sex with my bf lol but kept a bra on so the girls didnt bounce around. i deff feel alot better naked now and he loves them, but he wishes he could play with them :)

today gonna be in the 90s im am worried about boob sweat, dont want them to get infected.

Updated on 21 Apr 2012:
I took the tape off at two weeks in. it took the scab off with it which freaked me out but i guess its ok. i started to newgel every 12 hours then break for 12 hours.

I feel no pain anymore. but i still try to be careful doing stuff, i can feel the implant with i stretch my arm back.

I miss being able to sleep on my side :( im soooo tired and cant seem to get any sleep cause of it. laying flat sucks too, so im still on the recliner

ahhhhhhhh I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD GET IT BUT IM FEELING BOOBIE GREED, I WISH I WENT A LITTLE BIGGER :(

HOPE IT WILL CHANGE WITH DROPING AND FLUFFING

Updated on 10 May 2012:
its been alittle over a month now. its hard to belive too. they feel like my own. i forget i had them done some times till i stretch to far and it hurts where they insert it. Today i have a check up so ill be back to update. im hoping i get some touch up from the smart lipo i had and get that mole removed. they have not drop yet but they dont get tight and hard anymore. still wish i went bigger. my boyfriend thinks im crazy cause he thinks they are huge lol

Updated on 11 May 2012:

First of all, happy almost 30th birthday! What a great way to spend a tax return. Please let us know when you schedule your surgery and how you're feeling as you get closer! Any idea if you're leaning toward saline or silicone?

Brookeh (RealFriend) 14 Dec 2011
Thanks! Slilicone!
YoungThinker 21 Feb 2012
Did you get a consult with anyone else in the area? Im looking for doctors to meet with in Manchester / Nashua.
Brookeh (RealFriend) 21 Feb 2012

i had smart lipo with him before so i thought since i like him i would go back to him.
FitLuv (RealFriend) 28 Feb 2012
Are breast are almost identical!! I'm getting a lift and implants 400cc in left and 450cc in right. I'm also getting my procedure in April. I hope all goes well with you!
NewGirls0412 5 Mar 2012
My breast look very similar, my procedure is scheduled for April 4th. I will be going for a D from a small B one side and an A on the other. Good luck! Looking forward to hearing how everything goes!
Brookeh (RealFriend) 6 Mar 2012
how many CCs you getting. i hope 400 and 425 will get me to a D i worry so much that it might not be big enough!
MrsRod2010 14 Mar 2012
When it doubt, go bigger! Im 5'9.5'' and i got a lift AND silicone implants at 533cc, last week, and im SOOOO happy with my lift and the 533cc, but i kinda wish i could have gone bigger than this. I originally was gonna go with 397cc, then 479cc, and then a week from my date i changed the size one more time to 533cc. Since im so tall, they really dont look bad at all. To me, that is. Look at my pics, youll get a view of how big they are. I was a B/C before i got my boobs done too.
ANYWAY! When in doubt- GO BIGGER! =] lol And congrats. Im happy for you =] Youre gonna look fabulous either way you go!
Brookeh (RealFriend) 14 Mar 2012
thanks, my doc saidn with my Bwd being 12 i cant go bigger then 425cc :( the implants have been odered too. your lucky i wish i got get a TT i cant afford it
NWME 15 Mar 2012
goodluck on your upcoming procedure!! i think youll look great with 425cc. are you getting high profile or moderate profile?
Brookeh (RealFriend) 16 Mar 2012
thanks! high pro :)
FitLuv (RealFriend) 20 Mar 2012
im getting smooth high profile, still undecided about size!
Brookeh (RealFriend) 21 Mar 2012
my doc is not sure if he is going under or over yet on me, i guess hes gonna try both during surgery and see what comes out best. i wanna go a little bigger but he already oder my implants and i guess its the bigest i can go with my bwd
FitLuv (RealFriend) 16 Mar 2012
