Ever since I was a teen, I wanted big breasts! the women in my family are all heavy chested and curvy woman. I was the oddball being tall and thin. During my teenage years, at first it was hard to accept that I was small chested and I could not fill in my clothes like other girls. Once I was in high school, I was involved a lot in sports and I lost even more boobs that I barely had. I finally started working and just got around with buying VS pushup bras that would fill me in nicely. As I got older my boobs grew a bit (yay) from being pretty much flat chested to what I am now- a 32 B. With the wonderful support of my fiancé , I am finally ready to take the plunge and get a BA! :) I have been planning this for about a year and have done MUCH MUCH research on breast augmentation and plastic surgeons and back in April 2014, I was ready to start going to consultation with different plastic surgeons. While internet searching and researching different surgeons, there was one that really caught my attention and I went there for my consultation and loved everything about the place! The place is called Bancroft-Feldman Plastic Surgery and their facility is in Sugarland, Tx. When I went for my consultation in April as soon as I walked in the door, I felt welcomed. The place is modern and such a relaxing environment. My fiancé went with me that day to accompany me since he knew this was something I really wanted. :) Dr. Feldman and his patient coordinator, Jeannette, were very nice and did not make me feel pressured or awkward at any moment. Dr. Feldman went throughout the entire procedure and pretty much answered every question that I had before I could even ask it. I am scheduled to have the procedure in three weeks (Aug. 14) and am super excited! I have a pre-op appointment in 10 days to get my prescriptions for the medications and also just to make sure the size cc is the correct size I want. Currently I am planning on getting 371 cc in both of my breasts but I may want to push it up because I am wanting a D cup in the end.

So im getting pretty excited about the new boobies . MY fiance is probably tired of me talking about it lol. I'm doing this without many people knowing like idk, I am doing this for myself and feel if I'm open to the people close to me know about this, they will judge me and tell me things blah blah blah... lol any opinions over this? How should I respomd to negative comments?

Hi there:) What size did Dr Feldman say would work well/look good on you? He's really good at what he does and can tell you what will work best for the look you're wanting to achieve. Are you getting saline or silicone? Under or over the muscle?
As far as handling discussing your procedure with people, it depends on your personal preference. I hardly told anyone I was getting my procedure. I told my parents and my in-laws, and my family dr, but thats it. People are judgemental and usually feel inclined to offer up unwanted opinions. I know for me, none of my girlfriends would have understood why I wanted the procedure, some would have told me not to do it or would have made me feel guilty about wanting a cosmetic procedure. I've heard comments like, "it's a vain thing to do" and "you should love yourself the way you are" and people get jealous for whatever reason and can be nasty about it. Don't let those people rain on your parade! You know why you want to do it and you don't owe anyone an explanation. Tell people who you trust won't judge you, they will genuinely be happy for you and not judgemental. I waited until after my procedure to tell most of my friends. I just didn't want anyones input on my decision. Afterwards, I told nearly all my family and friends and they were excited to see my new look. Most of them asked me stuff like "did it hurt?" and "who did them?" They were all impressed with how I looked and saw how happy I was with the results, so they were happy for me. Wishing you all the best with your procedure! :)

Thank you for your advice! YEAH I think I'm just going to stay quiet about the procedure until afterwards lol. I am getting silicone and under the muscle. Dr. Feldman was very nice and picked out the 371 because I wanted a natural look. But months have passed by and I just want a tad bigger to where they sorta look fake but can still look good on my body :) how long was your recovery process before you went back to work?
July 29, 2014
Dr. Feldman did my procedure on a Tuesday and I went back to work that next Monday. It was 6 weeks before I could any lower body workouts and will be 3 months before I can do any upper body / core. Woohoo I'm almost there ...

Dr. Feldman is amazing. I would listen to him and go with what he says are best for you. I also used him for my B back in May. We went with 650 cc silicone. Before I was a 38 a/b now I'm a 38 dd/ddd however I'm I bit shorter and a bit thicker. He knows what will work with you. I was skeptical about going with what he said but I love mine. Good luck and can't wait to see and hear all about your experience.

Thank you for your comment :) brings some joy and more confidence that I picked a great plastic surgeon. Yes as time gets closer to surgery day, I will post more !! Soo excited
July 28, 2014
I am sure you are super excited. I'm 12 weeks post op tomorrow. The time has flown by. I actually go see Dr. Feldman next week just for a check up as I am hoping that all is healing nicely and I can return to CrossFit. If you have any questions about surgery or about Dr. Feldman, please IM me. He's great and will take very good care of you.

I'm also scheduled for August 14, so excited! And when it comes to negative comments just ignore them, I haven't really told people, I want to tell the whole world but I know they will judge me, so I'll just surprise them when I have my new boobies. Good luck!
July 27, 2014
You are right. I told everyone I knew and they were so supportive. I wanted to tell the world and did and I didn't care what anyone said. It's our bodies and we can do what we want.
July 28, 2014
Eekk its less than three weeks before our surgery!!! Yeah I'm just going to keep it to myself and a few close people that have already known I'm gettimg this done. I'm glad my surgery is in the early morning that way I can get on the road to recovery a lot faster :)

soo... I live a very busy lifestyle. this is what my day consist of... wake up at 8am and work on homework until 10 am, get ready for work and work from 11-7:30, then back home and hop on to my online class from 8pm-11pm... exhausting!! this is only on Mondays and Wednesdays though :) Its a prep PCAT course because I'm taking my Pharmacy School entrance exam the first week of September! wish me luck!!! back to le boobs- so quick question girlies, normally around the week before I get my period, my breasts get super tender and they hurt. Im scared to know how much that pain will be once I get the new boobies in... I normally don't get pain when I am on birth control but decided to get off the BC for the last three months that way my body does not have any sort of medication in me that might complicate recovery time etc. Is the pain manageable? especially since I am supposed to get my period like a week after surgery. after I recover, I am going to buy myself a sexy corset lingire... its always been a dream for me to wear one and actually be able to fill it up :)

Hi there! Good luck with everything. We have a very similar breast shape, go to my profile and check out my results. I just had 450 done yesterday. You're probably skinnier than me but I'm a little bit taller than you and weight 165.
July 29, 2014
Congratulations on your decision! I got the 371 mid profile under the muscle as well which was filled with an extra 50 cc because you 'lose' cc when you do under the muscle. I really love mine, they are swollen right now still and I am a little less then two weeks into my recovery. I went into my period late in the day of my surgery. Honestly I wouldn't worry about it because no period pain pill has anything on the stuff they give you after your surgery. The area that has been bad for my is the sternum area and for sure the tightness that you get in the morning. I would wait a little bit to buy the corset though! My boobs are still really swollen and I know Im not going to get a good idea of the size for a bit. I didn't tell anyone that I was doing it and from the reactions I have had when I see people now, they don't notice but I have been wearing baggy tops. Good luck and I am sure you will look amazing!
July 30, 2014
Yeah, thats what my doctor told me that I was going to lose some cc, thats why I think I'm going to go a bit bigger. Thank you for your tip about the pain meds! i totally forgot I was going to be taking those and yeah that should help with the cramps and pain :) I am planning on wearing baggy clothes for a while and I even went ahead and bought bigger scrub tops for work to make them less noticeable! so is it hard to breathe when you wake up? I hope it goes away!
July 31, 2014
No not really, 'morning boob' is just a bit weird haha. I've never experienced that it was hard to breathe at all. What I have found is just that they feel really tight. Like when you squeeze into a sports bra that is way too small. But that's just me, everyone is so different. It really hasn't been that noticeable for me after the second third day. The massaging helps it a lot.
