Ok so it is 13 days until my ba . I am 5 foot 110lb and a very small 34A cup.i have four children .never lost never gained with pregnancies . I have wanted a ba for as long as I can remember .

I NEVER am without a bra and a very padded one at that because I hate what it looks like . So needless to say I can't wait . My husband is very happy with what I look like now . He knows how long I have wanted this for so he told me on valentines day you know what I am getting you your boobs you have always wanted . I nearly jumped up and down with excitement .lol

so march 19 th is my surgery date .i am getting 375cc silicone unders. I don't want to look to big . I do do hair at home not sure how long I won't be doing hair . Hopefully no longer than 2 weeks.

Ok we'll sorry I didn't past yesterday I wasn't feeling to well . Surgery went well I got 375ccs in rite and 400 in the left. Haven't gotten to see them yet apt. Is at 10:15 . Dreading the ride there . I am in pain let me tell you . Nothing I can't handle but I am defentaly keeping up on my meds . To get up to sitting is the hardest I need a push from someone every time . But this time I just did it on my own. I did throw up once last night. I hope I don't do that again yuck. If I get a itch on the top of my head I can't itch it . Grrr I hate having people do everything for me . Hopefully today will be a better day pain wise . Oh I almost forgot I did have to call my ps my left arm was numb and swollen . I got scared he said it was just from the iv fluids . It did go away now thank god. Well good luck to everyone . Ill try to get a picture at th Drs. today to post. Good luck to everyone going today and happy healing to everyone who went yesterday.

Stool softener isn't helping I guess. Ill post some more pictures later. They are still riding high and rite is a bit smaller . That is making me nervous too because my rite is saposed to be 400ccs left is 350ccs hope it just evens out .

Ok so here I am 8 days post op and let me tell you . I finally feel like myself again. I have had such pain ps said it was because my muscles were so tight so I got back on muscle relaxers . Let me tell you he was so rite I feel so much better now. I Was feeling like I was never going to be myself again. I couldn't stand being in so much pain every day all day. I woke up this morning with no pain. I still haven't dropped yet but hopefully now that my muscles are relaxing they will start to drop. Posting new pictures in a minute Thanks to everyone who has helped me along the way and the site.

Well i had a very stressful day today my sons school calls me first thing in the morning he got in trouble . then my father had a hip replacement surgery today and my ps apt . wow am i beat . I went to my 2 week post op today ps says my muscles are still tight he said again you need to relax. Ya rite with 4 kids that doesn't happen. He prescribed me another muscle relaxer I have to take and see if this works . Other than that everything looks good . I go back now in 2 weeks. Oh ya I also have to find a new bra one that I can't find he wants me to where one that clasps in the front and pulls the girls in and doesn't push them in flat. I have 2 of the same bra two different sizes and it hurts me rite under the boobies . I guess I have to take a trip to the mall. If anyone knows what kind or where I can get one . I'd love to hear . Good luck to everyone getting there surgery soon.

Is anyone else having trouble getting a bra that has support but is also comfortable . I am not used to holding any thing in my bras except padding . The sports bras are comfy but I got this bra from Victoria's Secret and I loved it not that I'm home it's kinda hurting my shoulders and I have it all the way out . I did get sized too. I don't know if this is normal when you actually have boobs or did she give me the wrong size? CONFUSED

Well I am exactly 3 weeks post op I do think I am dropping slowly but surely . Not fast enough but I have alot of stretching to do . I am actually looking bigger because they aren't so flat on my chest . By the end of the day I look higher. Still having a burning feeling across the bottom half nipples still super sensitive . Still getting morning boob . So I have had a very stressful weekend yet again. My youngest daughter (3 years old ) fell down the stairs in my house . She fell onto a ceramic mug that was left there . She split her face wide open . Lots of stitches from her eye to her nose . Just missed her eye by a hair . I was so I guess depressed for 3 days . I couldn't stop crying . My poor poor baby . I brought her to my ps yesterday . He says she won't need a surgery rite now. The ps who stitched her though maybe she might need surgery . Because the stitches are pulling the bottom of her eye down . So I felt much much better . He says when the swelling Gos down it will be fine . She might need something done for the scar in years to come . For now she's ok . But he wants to see her back on Monday. When it heals we will then use silicon cream with SPF . I have been so scared for my baby .

They look so pretty!!! I do hair as will.. How long until you were able to do hair? I only have 5 days off afterwards.
Miss cris 1 May 2013
My ps told me a week but because I was basically flat chested and my muscles and my skin were so tight it took 2 weeks. When is your big day.
BlaireWaldorf 1 May 2013
Well mine is may 29th. And I will be back at work the following Tuesday night. That's only six days but hopefully ill be okay.
LA1977 26 Apr 2013
you look amazing in the red top!!! It must feel wonderful to put on a strapless top and have it STAY UP!!!! ahhh...hopefully by August for me! LOVE your story! :)
Miss cris 1 May 2013
Awe thank you !!! I was so excited when I put that shirt on I have always had to wear a big padded bra with a shirt like that. I was able to wear it without a bra great feeling.thx
Newgirl13 20 Apr 2013
You seem to be the same size as me! So I was wondering how you like the high profile? My PS reccomended 350 high profile and I got nervous because I don't want them to look too fake so I was contemplating moderate plus, but I'm sure the PS knows what's best for my body right?
Miss cris 20 Apr 2013
Absolutely your ps knows best . Yes I didn't want the fake look ether but I didnt want them flat and round . Hp protruds out more. If you do hp and go under the muscle they won't look fake because the muscle will pull them down . You won't get that roundness on top. I was going to go with 350 also and my ps said if you like that size go with 375 because you loose about 25cc's going under the muscle . But my rite side was a little bit smaller so I went with 400 in that side and I am so happy I did. It took me a couple of weeks to start liking them . Because I had alot of stretching to do. But now I love love love them . I am so happy with my size and the way they look . It's hard to take a picture of yourself and for them to look good . I think they look better in the mirror than they do in my pictures
Newgirl13 20 Apr 2013
Thank you! Yeah I feel like if I go with mod plus they will be too wide for my narrow chest! I am doing under the muscle so he said 325-350 so we went with 350! Do you have any other suggestions for me? I'm getting so excited, but I want to make sure I have everything perfect for the big day!
Miss cris 20 Apr 2013
The only thing I can say is have someone there with you for a couple days . I couldn't sit up on my own I needed help . That was the worst thing for me . I cleaned the whole house real good before . Do you have kids ? I didn't use any vitamins or lotions or anything. Personitaly didn't want to touch them for the first week at all. I had alot of help thank god . Anything else don't be afraid to ask
Miss cris 20 Apr 2013
Are you going to post before pictures ?
Newgirl13 20 Apr 2013
My mom will be staying with me for a couple days! No I don't have any kids. So stick with the HP that my PS recommended? Yeah I will post pics asap. What prescriptions did your PS give you? I only got Vicodin, Motrin and something for nausea. I'm nervous bc I've heard a lot of people get a muscle relaxer!
Miss cris 20 Apr 2013
Yes def hp. I had Vicodin , nausea med , and yes I defiantly had a muscle relaxer. I needed that most of all I took that for a while because my muscles weren't relaxing . I wonder why he isn't giving you one . And I started taking a stool softener 2 days before but it did nothing then I had 2 tbs of milk of magnesia two times wow that did the trick.
Newgirl13 20 Apr 2013
I wonder why he isn't giving me a muscle relaxer? :( I'm nervous about getting constipated too!
Miss cris 21 Apr 2013
I don't know why I would ask him . Why not nothing to loose . I was very nervous about getting constipated I kept up on stool softeners all along . But also get milk of mag. When is your ba?
Miss cris 21 Apr 2013
If you go to your profile you can update it and write your story and that's where you will add pictures too.
Newgirl13 25 Apr 2013
I finally posted two pics with the new bra I bought!
Sillysassy1432 17 Apr 2013
Wish I had some advice on the itchy part. I haven't had that experience so far. Hope you find some relief!
Miss cris 17 Apr 2013
Oh thanks nothing ha shelled yet I'm going too go get coco butter though
Sillysassy1432 17 Apr 2013
Good idea! That's what I've been using since surgery day. Palmer's coco butter, not sure if it works but I know my skin feel really good.
Violet1234 (RealFriend) 16 Apr 2013
They are beautiful; enjoy them; and take good care off them; congratulations!
Miss cris 16 Apr 2013
Thank you , you look great also
Violet1234 (RealFriend) 16 Apr 2013
Thanx

Are you taking Ibuprofen and applying warm compresses help the discomfort? I'm sure you will heal over time, it's just a major inconvenience to have the healing drag on. Let us know what your doctor says tomorrow. Take care!

Miss cris 15 Apr 2013
I really have done anything for it. I just figured out I had it yesterday . I will defiantly let you know what the ps says. Thanks
Sillysassy1432 14 Apr 2013
I have them too under one breast. Do they tend to cause more plain? How long before they settle down and disappear?
