oh yeah!
And when we went on vacation if I was ever in doubt..no more. My 16 year old daughter filled out and looked better in my bathing suit than I did. Proud for her but very embarrassing for me.

Oh what a wonderful story! I don't know if I'm more happy for you and your wonderful husband's marriage or for your dream boobs! I'm glad you shared the part about your breasts taking a few weeks, sometimes months to settle in. The changes during the first few weeks can be surprising. Thank you for sharing your story with us on RealSelf and be sure to update us when you go bra shopping!

I have ALWAYS wanted to get a "Boob job" but I guess that is kind of like wanting to own instead of rent or have a Lexus instead of a beat up car. It was a DREAM. My husband are a poster for better/worse, richer poorer. I stayed with him through back surgery, hernia operation, etc. We have been so poor that I walked 4 miles to an interview with a skirt on and when I got the job (grocery store) I would walk to work, walk home at night with a couple bags of groceries, etc. He had someone from his job pick him up. He decided to open his own business and asked me to stand behind him and I did. He got it up and running and stood behind me while I went back to school. My daughter and I would do homework together, she was in middle school (4-5-6 grades) and I was in college. But I graduated with honors and now have my dream job of being a medical transcriptionist. I work with the Drs wife who has breast implants, a nurse who has implants and 2 others that have had reductions and one that wants a reduction. The other ladies say they will get implants after they have their kids. Well, my daughter is now a junior in high school. I told my husband that things were almost perfect, now, if only I had boobs. His response shocked me: i would love for you to have boobs but if something went wrong in surgery, i would never forgive myself and never be able to look our daughter in the face knowing I paid for that to happen.....well, i told him how common the procedure is and he said how much? I got 2 quotes and he told me to do my research and find a good Dr. I did. he said he would pay. THAT WAS A SURPRISE. I was thinking he would pay 1/2 or say for Christmas, but he said birthday/Christmas as I asked the week of my birthday. So, I had mine done in Jackson, MS by Dr. Barraza. He and his staff were great. I went in with a padded 34B (probably actually an A) and told him I wanted to be a full C. Whatever he had to do to get that result. I got Saline under the muscle 350 in the right and 375 in the left....something about asymmetry. When I woke up, I was DEVASTATED-I had no more than when I came in, maybe smaller!?!? I went home and slept and when my husband came home, He was furious and told me to get ready to go back and have it done again and have it done right. I promised I would call on Monday-this was Friday night. I went back to sleep and woke up at 10p.m. and OMG! I had these huge rocks on my chest! I don't know what was wrong to begin with if it takes a little while to fill or what, but WOW! Anyway, I didn't call, when I went to my po...i was happy. I completely fill a 36B and need a 34 but the store didn't have one and have extra hanging out. I may be a small D when it is all said and done. I'm in week 5 now, ready for them to drop and fluff. They are still a little high but the swelling has gone down.
I came back to work on Monday, a little sore but better that night. Dr. said don't wear a bra at home so hopefully gravity will help them drop so that is what I do. He said massage them daily, I do this as well..but they seem to be happy where they are sitting!.. I have posted lots of comments, but this is the first chance I've had to get my story out. I'll post more as time goes. Hope everyone is happy with their new Boobie!! Good Luck to all!! :-)

Having mine done on march 1st by him and currently a 32b and wanting full c no more than low d. I tried the sizers with a padded bra and saw i needed at least 300 cc but they told me he makes the decision during surgery as to how much more i can go.
