Im 32 yrs old and mum of a 2 yr old. Since in my teens i always had small a cup breast. I have waited till i become a mother to see if they change but even when pregnant they remained the same. 3 months ago i decided to call for an appoitment and when i walked in was puzzled but anxious as if it was going to be done that day :). I had so many questions listed down but with all the talk he did he ticked them all. He took measurments and i told him that i want anatomical for more natural look. I tried inplants and felt good. When i left i had to think about it and after a few days of reading most reviews here i had other questions so called for the 2nd appoitment.

The 2 nd time i met my doc was 4 wks ago. He suggested i go with 380cc anatomical silicone under the muscle for the perfect natural look. I asked if i can go bigger since having inplants under the muscle i loose the cc but he said you wont loose as much
as you think but made me try on tbe 400cc. They felt huge for my figure and he explined on a chart where it had measurments what type of inplants i should go for for the perfect result. I realised he was right, and i appreciated that he still had let me try bigger.

10 days to go and so far i feel calm :). I know a bit what im gonna go through as have a lot of friends who did but everyone is different so will see what's prepared for me i guess hehe. the only thing that's worrying me is not being able to play or lift my child but my husband is taking 3 days off from work and that already helps :).

8 days to go and feeling calm still and can' t wait for the day to come and see how i look. Last week we went for a vacation and i tried on a size medium bikini, well it was a bit big but after my op it wont and felt good hehe. I also bought a dress for a wedding i have a larger size and cant wait to wear it as it' s a heart shape strapless. These things are helping me to keep excited and not scared hehe. Will post pics after my op.

Well today went to pay for surgery and the doc assistant was very nice and explained a bit more of what will happen that day. Being there made me feel more happy and hoping i stay positive till next monday. I bought disenfectent shower gel that i have to use 3 days prior op. I am planning to do a list by tmrw including cleaning the house and all the laundry. Tmrw i check for button shirts to prepare them. Mum is bringing more pillows for me and bought frozen peas :). Till next time bye for now :) any info if i neeed anything else to be more comfy after op pls i appreciate :)

well yesterday i started with the cleaning of the house and im so tired!.....i really want my house to be ready so i be mentally relaxed on Monday. I still have 2 dys left to go including laundry but im sure all will be done. Mum prepared a lot of pillows for me bless her.Saturday going to shop for some button tops so it will be more easy to dress up.

Regarding emotions still calm as im so busy with work and house chores that i can't think about my op.

Tmrw is the big day.....only 22 hrs left to go......

Tmrw is the big day.....only 22 hrs left to go....feeling anxious, nervous and happy at the same time. They changed my op time to 2 hrs before and i was even happier as the less hrs of nervousness the better lol. Yesterday went with mum and bought a few button tops and a dress so it will be easier to put on. I bought a pygama aswell and straws :). I think im very prepared but not sure what to expect!. I want to get this done soon.

Hope everything goes well and i will feel happy with my new body!. Have been waiting so long for this moment since i was a teenager. Well that' s all for now. Maybe i update my review later on or tmrw before i go.

Im sore and have thitness but this is everyones pain so far. I took a peak and couls see a eavage wuhuuuu. Tmrw meeting my doc to check them out. Mum had to come and wash me bless her. As i said before i went with 350cc silicone anatomical on each boobie. I will update later on photos. Hopjng to get some rest tonight as its very diffucult not sleeping on my tummy.

It's day 2 and feeling better already. Visited my dr and he said im doing gd. I could only see them from a laying position and they look big :). Can' t wait to see them properly hehe. @

Its day 3 i woke up ok but it hurts so much to stand from a laying position. I did some house chores which made my muscles loose up a bit. I feel my breast hard as watermelon, did any oc you experienced this? Tmrw meetinv my dr again so i will ask him. Regarding appetite not always the same very weired. I will be hungry and after 5 min i loose the appetite. Thats all for today if you experienced the same i would be happy to know.

Day 4 and feeling really good, it' s like i have no implants. It hurts very little when i wake up. They are still very high but my dr told me to stay a whole wk with the support bandage, i guess in europe it' s another way to the procedure. I took a good look and happy already and guess going to be more as they say they will be bigger once they drop down :). I also did some house chores and manage to shower and went to do my nails and walked it back way home.

Day 7 i stopped all medications and feeling ok. I still have thitness but not sore and can lift my arm easily. All my friends told me my doc choose the best measurments for me and it's true. I not once wished i went bigger or smaller. Tmrw mtng him again to check how all it's doing. Cant wait to take of this bandage and start wearing nice bras and the new bikini i bought from abroad :). I never thought i would feel this happy but it's true getting more confident is one of the best feeling. Wanting them for so long it was worth the wait as now being more mature i know i choose the best of everything.

Day 8 i went to my doc and he said im healing great and i feel great too. The only thing that is bothering me is that my back aches on one side and he said its very normal and i shouldnt worry as everything looks great. So all im taking is some pain killers for my back. Next monday i shall return to work and very glad i am to be honest so i can start my normal routine. Missing my exsersize but i might start going for normal walks and start slowly slowly. Doc removed half of the bandage so now i have half of what i had only at the top part now so it helps to drop down. Im dying to know my bra size and saturday i might go and try some out :). Ohhhhh and that bikini i bought from my holiday????.... it fits like good just slightly tight which is veryyyyy good lol. I will update picks later today as my husband has to do them for me :)

Hello girls, hope you all doing great. Im not bad...

Hello girls, hope you all doing great. Im not bad just wishing monday will come maybe my doc will take of the strap for me. My right boob is dropping more than the left and im worrying a bit. Does anyone knows ehst can happen if it doesn' t drop down?. Im going to ask him monday as im very curious. Does frozen peas help? As im seeing and feeling them still hard :(. I love how they look but know that they have to drop down. Any answers would help alot girls.

I can honestly say today was the best day so far....

I can honestly say today was the best day so far. Its like i have no implants. No backache nothing. They dropped a bit more and not so hard as they were. I can lift my arms very high nearly all the way. Missing the driving as might be told not to for another week. I slept on my side but still with pillows to be elevated and loved it even though im a tummy sleeper. Tmrw we are meeting friends and im tempted to buy a wireless bra as i dont feel good going out with the strap :( its only a few hrs so i guess i go and buy one. Wish you all a great wknd xxx byeeee for now

It' z been 2 wks already since my surgery. Today was my 1 st day at work and since i have an office job i did good and had a great day so glad im back seeing my friends. Just came from my doc as he is checking on me every week, he said i can take normal showers but wash the incisions with desenfected shower gel and he told me to buy silicone gel to put once everyday on the incision. He told me that i have to keep with the band and might take another 2 weeks to remove it :(. I left so sad from there. It's 29 degree here it' s so hot cant stand it anymore!. He said i can drive now and forgot to ask him if i can excersise but im gonna start going for walks at least i feel in my normal routine. Last saturday i bought a non wired bra and now im a size 32 C very happy but after a while with it i felt uncomfortable and put the band on. I think i was scared since i kndw i was not suppose to wear one : s. Anyway hope thiz week pass quickly maybe next monday i b lucky and band will be in the bin lol.

Hello girls, yesterday me and hubby went out with...

hello girls, yesterday me and hubby went out with friend for a few drinks and went bra less, it felt so great having a cleavage without having to use a xxx bra to have it :).....im so looking forward to start wearing nice sexy bras. Next Monday have my post op and hopefully will be bandage free as it's too hot in Europe 35 degrees!!!! i have sweat going down my cleavage lol i have never experienced that hihihi. Wish you all a nice wknd i update review on Monday after appoitment.

Today im 3 wks post op and visited my doc for the 3 rd time. He said my breast are doing well and happy with how the shape is coming and im really happy too. I have no regrets. Unfortunately the bandage has to stay on for another 2 wks as they have to drop down more. Hopefully when i visit in 2 wks he removes it for me. So now i take it off only for a few hrs if i dont want certain people to know what i did, other than that i keep on for work and sleep. Today i drove for the first time and it was normal feeling, glad i waited an extra week from when he told me to do so. I think the slower you take it on things the better results. I will try to post more pics.

Today is exactly one month post op. It' s been a life change for me for the good. Filling all my tops and dresses made all worth it. Tmrw im going for post op check up and ery excited maybe he takes strap this time. I wear it mostly 24 hrs except when we are going out with friends. Last sunday we had a bbq next to a pool and wore my new triangle bra bikini and ft sexy. I saw a girl saying i think hers are fake. I dont mind it wish sbe knew i heard her so i could smile to her hehe. I couldnt swim and was the only dissapoitment of the day. Hopefully tmrw i will hear my doc saying bandage off and ready to swim as its too hot 32 degress. Hope everyone is having a nice recovery. I am and have no regrets :) happy with everything especially the size.

You are looking great girl! I'm posting some pics tonight!
xaxa 20 Jun 2012
Thanks jas now they dropped down more. Looking forward to see urs
good wines 19 Jun 2012
I have to wear it 24 hours a day. My surgeon had to create a pocket for me so i guess it's really important that the implant falls into place. But I am seriously in so much pain. I didn't wear it last night and wanted to take it off so badly today. I'm thankful I have an appointment tomorrow or I would have called to get it. I feel like I shouldn't be in this much pain almost 2 weeks post-op. Maybe I just heal differently.
Sissy 48 19 Jun 2012
I don't wear mine 24/7 I'm bad this last week I have only worn it 4 days I dont wear it at night my dr said not to .
Sissy 48 19 Jun 2012

xaxa 19 Jun 2012
I didnt bruise and i feel so good that i dont get it why i have to keep on wearing it!. I know the reason to it is because they have to drop down more :(...... im gonna keep positive till next monday. Do you wear it 24 hrs? Cause i do.
Sissy 48 19 Jun 2012

good wines 14 Jun 2012
Hi xaxa. I am 7 days post-op today and have the band also. I guess it's not too common in the US for some reason (I am in the US). I have to wear it for another 2 weeks! You look fabulous! Just the right size.
xaxa 14 Jun 2012
Im 11 days post op and meeting my doc monday so will see maybe im lucky if he removes the straps for me. Thank you for the compliment. Im very happy about the zize and results. Im still sleeping with 3 pillows but last night managed to sleep on the side and felt good even though im a tummy sleeper.
Sissy 48 14 Jun 2012
You shouldn't worry they drop at different times . My left still has to drop more and I'm 5 wks tomorrow . Are you massaging ? They also get soft hard and soft .
xaxa 14 Jun 2012

Sissy 48 13 Jun 2012

Sissy 48 13 Jun 2012
My back hurt a lot because I sleep on my side , when I could sleep on my side again my back felt alt better . My right boob is hurting . If it hurts still on Friday I will call my dr .i think I may have massaged it to ruff . Happy all is going good
xaxa 13 Jun 2012
I havent slept on my side yet cause feel uncomfortable. I have no pain except for stitches burning sensation every now and then and my lower right side back. I have not been told to message them. It is so different in my country. None of my friends did.
