So I am scheduled to have a BA with a periareolar lift on Thurs, Sept 6th. I have just recently found this site, and I have found it to be very helpful. I am 33, 5'9" 148 lbs. I have had 3 children, and 1 was at a very young age. My breasts have been saggy and streched out for 16 yrs now. I have wanted a BA for a very long time now. I went for a consult with a friend in April, and I left really wanting a BA. I talked to my mom, and she told me to go for it. I was worried about the money, and she said "you'll never have the money, and you really want this, so just do it". So I scheduled the procedure. Sept. seemed so far away. It's here now. Only three days away. I am super excited. I am also very nervous. I chose 475 cc saline implant to be placed under the muscle. My husband is overjoyed with the size I chose, but I'm feeling that it may be too big. I am active . I like to run and am worried big breasts will hinder that. I also don't want to look like a [RS bleep] star. The nurse assured me that this would be ther right size for me, but I can't help but wonder. I will post pics as soon as I figure out how.

Thank you for starting your story on RealSelf. Here's a quick tutorial on posting photos. Have you tried doing the rice test yet? That might help you decided on a size. Most women wish they'd gone bigger, but I've seen my share of women who regret going too large as well, so think hard on this.

Just had my BA today. I have a good deal of discomfort. I'm counting down the minutes untill I can take my valium. Things went really today. My husband and kids have been wonderful. I am so thankful for their help. The rest of my family and friends have been super supportive. My 4 yr old daughter is sleeping on the couch, so I won't be alone,(so cute). The ice and shoulder/arm rolls help so much. Do you exercises laides.Also stay on a med schedule. Even if you hVe to set an alarm. Pics to come. I can't wait to sneak a peak tomorrow. Good luck to all upcomming booby recipients, and recovering goddesses.
