WORTH IT$10,000

I am a mother of 4 beautiful children. Age 7,5, 3 and 1 year. I am 38 years old. I am going in for a full TT, breast reduction/lift, lipo to hip area.
I breast feed all four children and my body hasn’t been the same. I work out 5 days a week at the gym, and try to eat healthy. I have done every diet possible, my body isn't changing. I have always had large, heavy breast even before children. At age 12 I was a full C cup and a size zero. I always hated the negative attention I received as a child; it was very embarrassing to me.

My goal has always been to wait until I am finished having children/breastfeeding. I cannot believe my time has come! I am excited and nervous at the same time!

I know my thoughts are like a lot of mothers on here. Am I sure I want to go through this? Is it going to be worth it? What do I tell my young children I am doing? How am I going to manage the recovery time? What if I don't wake up?
Please say a prayer for me if you think of it. I appreciate all the support from you ladies!
Happy healing to all!

Hello moms,
I am scheduled for my pre-op this Friday. I just heard from my plastic surgeon about the mamagram results , says I need further evaluation! Has anyone else had this happen? I am praying everything's fine, positive thoughts!

Did he say why you need further evaluation? I know getting a call back is pretty common, so don't fret right now. When do you go back?

They didn't say. Just that they need to do further testing. I am hoping they can fit me in tomorrow as my pre-op appointment is Friday. I will keep you posted. Thanks for asking.

Hey Blonde in bluff ton! Yes, but nervous too! I think I am dreading the recovery time! It's probably not as bad as I am thinking! Hope so anyway!

DONT dread the recovery time. Your mind is key to recovery. I was up and walking like a bat outa hell the day after my surgery. Like I was on crack...wait a min. LOL. Anyways, I went in determined to NOT be scared and anxious of this, and for the most part I wasnt. My PS was in awe at my speedy recovery and thte fact that I was doing so well and ahead of sch. I really think positive results vome from positive planning. Have support, have supplies, have vodka (JK) and be realistic. I did NOT want lipo, in fact the thought scared me, so thats why Ive been looking at Coolsculpting, even though on here the worth is rating is about 75%.

Had my pre- op today. Didn't meet with Doctor, he wasn't even in is this normal? Just paid in full and filled out paper work. As Iwas leaving the office staff said try to loss some weight before surgery it will help? What? I told her I wrk out like a crazy person 5 days a weekend have tried every freeze diet out there no luck that's why I am doing surgery! Ok mayby I'm just sensitive right now, I am sure she ment well.

WHAT??? That sounds completely rude and totally unprofessional. Maybe you should make a call to the Office Mgr. Just to voice your concerns. They can ggive recommendations to help w/ surgery and healoing and recovery afterwards, but this sounds a bit tasteless IMO. I have heard that some women have to be evaluated when the PS gets mamo resukts, they want to be sure nothing is unusual before they go in, I can undertsnd that. Keep us posted :)
