I always wanted a nicer butt. I am 5'8 160lbs and a size 36dd. After having my daughter I lost some of my curves and have decided to get a bbl. I am scheduled for dec 16 and I am getting nervous dose anyone have any adviceUpdated on 5 Dec 2011:So next week Friday is the big day. I am getting more nervous as the time gets closer. I am not sure if I have everything I need for the after surgery part. I am having full lipo and bbl so I expect to be soar. I also have a 4 yr old daughter and think this should be real intresting. I will posting before pics today. Any advice would help....Updated on 14 Dec 2011:2 days away and I have a mix of happiness and being scared. U am looking forward to the results but not looking forward to the inbetween time.Updated on 15 Dec 2011:Tommrrow at 6am.Updated on 16 Dec 2011:Had my bbl done this am and I am not in that much pain. More sore than anything. I can't wait to see my results !!!!Updated on 17 Dec 2011:Day 2. Other than having to pee every 2 hours. I am not in alot of pain. Just really sore. Hope things stay this wayUpdated on 18 Dec 2011:Day 3 finally pulled my garment down all the way. But but is still very firm but that is to be expected. I see my waist has shrunk alot and I love it. I am able to move better. Haven't been really hungry but have been sleeping a lot. Tomorrow is my first post op lets see how it goesUpdated on 19 Dec 2011:Went to my pre op today and it went amazing. The doc said I am healing exceptionally well. I am able to get up and move even do some light cleaning but nothing that makes me bend. I road the entire way to the doc and back on my stomach witch made me really sick but I refuse to mess up my results. I took some pics and wanna post but I am a lil special when it comes to stuff like that. Can anyone help!!!!Updated on 20 Dec 2011:posted some pics today .. the doc took out 3300 cc's and put 680 into each cheek .. I also learned that the law in my town says they can only take up to 4000 cc's out ..

It's official. I am 1 week post op and I am still pleased with my results other than the fact that I weigh more now then before and right after surgery but the doc said it is all just water from swelling and it will go away. It better!!!! He was amazed at how fast I am healing. My booty has all ready dropped down a bit which is what I was waiting for but I like it where it is now better. He dose not expect me to lose much more back there as far as volume but his said it wil get much softer. 1 week down. Months to go...,

I am 2 weeks post op tomorrow and i am still as happy as I was when I first got it done . My waist is getting smaller and smaller . I love the job my doc did...

Went and had my 2 week post op and he said I can take of my garment. I went to one of those Columbian stores and got a post op garment which is made specifically for my stomach and actually fit an extra small.

Updated on 5 Jan 2012:
So I have changed garments to one of those Fajas which I love I can fell it getting bigger already .. The lady said to wear it for about a month and then drop down to an xxs. I must say it is not the most comfortable thing to wear but it doing the trick.. ohh and lots of water . I mean so much I am going all the time it helps to flush your system out .. i hope my info is helpful to someone out there ...

Updated on 11 Jan 2012:
So today i decided that my garment was getting to big so I decided to get a new one. I must say that they get expensive after a while but they do the trick my waist is getting smaller by the day and my but is looking bigger....

Updated on 18 Jan 2012:
as the weeks keep going by i am liking the turn out more and more.. i thought at one point it was getting smaller but i was wrong!!!! i have dropped another size in the waist compression garment and hope to be out of it for good soon but the lady at the store said to keep wearing it for a few months extra...

Updated on 24 Jan 2012:
I have learned that taking care of a new figure is a lot and takes time and dedication. I wear my garments almost 24/7. Last night i took it off to breath just to give my skin a break. They work if you use them on a constant basis and don't give up it is a lot and uncomfortable at times but believe me in the end it is worth it. My waistline is just getting smaller and smaller..

Updated on 30 Jan 2012:
Its official I am 6 weeks post op and I feel great. I still have some hard spots but other wise I am happy still sleeping ont stomach and sitting on pillows

Updated on 6 Feb 2012:
So I about 8 weeks pot and still pleased with my results.. I continue to wear the body shaper to help shrink my waist a bit more and have started to work on my abs to get them more defined.. I must say it take some getting used to when I look in the mirror.

Updated on 12 Feb 2012:
so i have been asked to take pics to show the back completly so here they are sorry it has taken so long..hope this helps

Updated on 5 Mar 2012:
Almost 3 months out and deff loving my results i have ben doing so many crunches my stomach is getting really toned . now it is time to keep in shape

Updated on 10 Apr 2012:
So it has been a while since i have last been on the site .. It is almost 4 months down andI am still very happy .. I have not lost much of the fat if any.. Funny enough i weigh the same amount i did before I had the transfer the weight is just in s different place now..I celebrated my 30th with a bang and they body I have always wanted.. I will go this friday to get my final messurements and before and afters..

Updated on 15 May 2012:
ok so I am offically 5 months post op.. I am still loving my new shape and glad that I did it.. Although this surgery is a quick fix to a visual problem you still have to work on the inside thoughts about yourself..It has to become a lifestyle change. I have completely changed the way that I eat and exercise.. I am now pround to be in clothes that fit me a lot better.. I am glad that I came into it with a realistic visual of myself and not thinking that i was going to step out of a phone booth looking like Nikki, or Buffy.. I wanted something that was gonna look nice and natural.. I didnt want men just looking at my ass. At the end of the day I am a Woman and a Mother and dont need my daughter thinking she is supposed to be looked at like a piece of meat.. I hope that the women that go through with surgery do it for them self and not to please someone else cause at the end of the day all you have is you.. I am thankful that I have a supportive hubby that loved me the way that I was and just thinks that my change is just a bonus..

Hi Danielle01,
I understand how u feel. I'm gonna get mines done as well. What doctor did u decide and are u financing the surgery?
Danielle01 28 Nov 2011
I am going to Dr Hass and I am financing but only 5000. I read others comments and they kinda scare me
Getabooty 29 Nov 2011
@Danielle01, did they do a credit check?
Luxury19 7 Feb 2012
May I ask what financing company you used?
Danielle01 29 Nov 2011
Yes and my credit is not the best I paid the rest with a card. I didn't even think I would get approved
Got2loveit 20 Feb 2012
Hi daniell can yu pls let me kno wat yu chose for financing becauseim stressn bad thank u
Getabooty 29 Nov 2011
Wow, I may do some financing too and my credit is not that great too. Well good luck to you and I hope it all work out. I will let you know how my work out too.
slushpuppy 30 Nov 2011
Congratulations on scheduling your surgery!
Danielle01 30 Nov 2011
Thank u. I hope I get the results I am looking for
lovely12 6 Dec 2011
Hi Danielle01, Congrats on your upcoming BBL. I was thinking about financing mine but I'm so scared to even try, my credit is poor. So must likely I will have to used my income tax and some more saved money. I'm most likely going with Campos next year. Anyway, I'm excited for you and good luck.
Danielle01 6 Dec 2011
Thank you lovely12. I am sure that you can get financed my credit is not the best either believe me. But there is always someone will to work with you. Every day that passes I get more nervous not sure if I am really prepared. I took b4 pics to post just have to upload them.
Danielle01 20 Feb 2012
I believe it is called care credit
lovely12 6 Dec 2011
I must certainly hope so, I have heard that some of the finance companies are tough. I guess it's normal to be nervous because when it's my turn, I'm all nervous. You will be fine.
LatinaHermosa 11 Dec 2011
I know that 4 me, having my post op meds n supplies ready ahead of time has reduced my anxiety about surgery. I will keep u in my prayers.
Danielle01 12 Dec 2011
Well my doc dose not give out the pain med prescription until the day of the surgery we have a big pain pill problem down here. I have bought all the other stuff that I think I will need. When is your surgery scheduled for? Thank you for your prayers I will keep ou in mine as well..
bottomup 14 Dec 2011
Danielle01: Congrats on your upcoming surgery!!! Woohoo it is 2 days away! I am 14 days post-op and I know what yuo feel as it was not long ago when I felt it. My only advice is to be VERY clear and specific as to what your expectations are and discuss it THE MORNING OF the surgery, right as he is drawing on you. I did not do this and regret it. I am not 100 happy with my results although I am not dissatisfied either. However, I feel that if I had discussed it one more time right before surgery, my expectations would have been fresh on his head. I did not use your doc. by the way.

Stay positive and good luck! ;)
Danielle01 14 Dec 2011
Who did you go too? I plan on being very up front about what I expect. How has your post op been going?
bottomup 15 Dec 2011
Post op has been a nightmare, but It's doable. The first 4 days are the worst . The worst for me has been the lipo-ed area. It hurts, burns, it's tight and also I have NEVER sleep on my stomach and this is obligating me to, which has made it horrible to sleep. I can't sleep for more than 2 hrs at the time.

Again, good luck tomorrow. One more time express your expectations to the doc and stay positive! It will all work out! Can't wait to hear about your experience and see pics. For more info you can refer to my blog. I have a day by day update on there as far as my experience :)
bottomup 14 Dec 2011
I went to Dr. Mendieta
Danielle01 15 Dec 2011
Thank you so much. I will keep you informed
bottomup 16 Dec 2011
Awesome! Congratulations on your surgery today! You are doing great!!! I could nit even move/speak or open my eyes the day of the surgery haha! Take good care, follow instructions and happy recovery! Post pics as soon as you can :)
Danielle01 16 Dec 2011
Thank you I will. The only thing is I am leaking. My doc dose not use drains because the incissions are so small. So my sheets are destroyed!
bottomup 16 Dec 2011
WOW! That a first for me. I never heard of no drains ... Well I'm sure he knows what he is doing. Icleaked a lot too thru the incisions of the drains and thru the drains. I had my drains in for 9 days - yuck! I know the feeling about leaking everywhere. Use platic bags to protect your mattress. That's goin to go on for a while.

Tomorrow may be a rough day. Don't get duscouraged. It gets better :) get well soon!
Danielle01 16 Dec 2011
I kept asking about drains cause that's all I ever hear about on here but when changing my dressings a while ago I did see the incissions and they are very tiny. I have really bad nausea when I get up. They gave me. Meds for that too. Thank you for your words of encouragement ..
bottomup 16 Dec 2011
No problem! That's what we are all here for, to support each other! The nausea is normal. I had it for the first 2-4 days. In addition to that I used to feel like I was going to pass out when I'd stand up. I was very weak and my legs used to shake a lot lol I'd get all sweaty and pale - it was weird! Ha but it all gets better! Stay strong. My thoughts and prayers are with you :)
