Hi my name is Stephanie and I am 28 years old. I am 5'2 about 135, bottom heavy. I have never really had any breast. Have definitley always wanted them. What girl doesnt. I have a 7 year old daughter. I guess after my pregnancy my breast have gotten a little saggy. i am a small B cup now. My goal is a big C small D. I am very nervous about being put under. I have never had any surgeries. My husband is very supportive but he is a man. I was wondering if anyone else is going or have gone through this feeling??

Hello ladies! Another day closer I'm getting very anxious. My nerves have calmed down a bit since last week. Still a little nervous, but I know things will turn out great. This is all so surreal. I have always wanted bigger breasts, but never thought it would happen. I just cant imagine myself with boobies. : ) I pick my husband up tomorrow from airport. He works for oil company so he works for 3 weeks and is off for 3 weeks. Im glad he will be with me for this. I'm so exited.! This review board has been so helpful to me. All of the beautiful ladies on here are great. I am so happy to have stumbled onto this site. Another update soon..

Welcome to RealSelf! Yes, your feelings are completely normal. Fear of anesthesia is probably the biggest concern women mention. Make sure you doctors is ASPS/ASAPS board certified and that you are a healthy non-smoker, and you should do just great!

Keep us posted!

Hi, that is my biggest concern. The what if's of going under. I have not had any major surgery and even though I know I am healthy it all still frightens me. This site has helped a lot.
