Mommy Makeover - Manhattan, NY
Hey everybody! my name is Kelly, i have been...
hey everybody! my name is Kelly, i have been looking into getting a TT for over 2 years now and getting my boobies done since about the age of 16 yrs old. I am a mother of one amazing little boy, he is 2 1/2 years old. i had an amazing pregnancy, but unfortunately like 98% of the other women out there, i developed veryyyy bad stretch marks 2 weeks before i gave birth. My belly isnt that bad, but i do not want to live the rest of my life feeling so self conscious about my body. (i dont even let my husband see me naked , sucks. ) i am also a beginner B cup, full A cup, i just want a full C, beginner B cup. My surgeon said he ordered various different implant sizes that he wants to check out, ranging from high profile 265cc -330cc... he said they will look phenomenal, not to worry. ok so enough of the blah blah blah, my surgery is scheduled for thursday 2/28/13 (in 4 days!) I am veryyy nervous. I am having my surgery done at Lenox Hill eye, ear and throat hospital in NYC. My doctor is very sweet, and the whole staff is very nice and encouraging. They answer any question you have very thoroughly. My dr even got another doctor to check me out and make sure this is what i want to do. he recommended me on waiting to get the tt done and get a mini tt done later on.
But i insisted i want the full tt and breast aug combined. The reason why is because i am an EMT. i work on an ambulance. I am going into FDNY EMS academy this april. I need atleast 6 weeks to heal until i can work out. SO therefore this is the only time i have to do my surgery. I will be posting before pictures so you guys can see my belly. I WILL NOT be showing my boobies without a bra lol, ill just feel weird doing so. ^_^
ok so i know you ladies are going to want to know how much ive spent. The surgery costs $6038. BUT there is a mandatory overnight stay at the hotel (AFFINIA GARDENS) across the street from the hospital. The cost for the hotel is $222. BUT you also have to come out of pocket for the nurse who stays with u which is another $800. so an over all of about $7060. Which still isnt bad for this combined procedure! im sure siked about getting it done, im also veryyy nervous. ive done soooo much research, ive seen amazing results, and also nightmare results :-/ . I just pray to god that my doctor does his thing and doesnt make me regret this decision. well ladies, here is the beginning to my journey, i hope u all enjoy xoxo
I'm excited for you! I would think knowing you're going to be in the hospital overnight would be somewhat comforting. I would like it, anyway. Thanks so much for starting your story on RealSelf. Here's a list of supplies you might need for recovery.
