Called the office, new date set for Oct 28th with my consult the 15th. I decided to move some things around in my school/work schedule and now I can look forward to being mostly healed up by christmas :) PS Does anyone know how to remove old posts? I wanted to take down my original posts from last year when I didn't go through with the procedure. Thanks!

New Boobie Birthday Scheduled
Ashers31August 15, 2014
Hi all! Well, last year as I was preparing for a BA I suddenly backed out. I think I freaked myself out with all of the "what can go wrong" stories and suddenly I felt foolish for wanting to alter myself.. However, nearly a year has gone by, and another summer to which I tried in vain to find clothes that I was comfortable in. Soooo, here is to round 2! I called and scheduled a pre-op appt for Dec 2nd and BA op for Dec 16th. I'm at the mercy of the school schedule, so the only viable time is during x-mas break when I have nearly 3 weeks off.
Some things I'm going to do differently this time:
1)Not freak myself out with stories of things gone horribly wrong.
2)Stick to my guns about saline (I went back and forth numerous times on this) I have to choose what I'm comfortable with.
3) Keep my mouth shut! I'm not telling anyone this time around. I was overwhelmed with the "opinions" of others last year and ultimately is what ruined the whole experience. Only the BF knows, as he is going to be the one taking care of me post-op.
4) Actually print full size pics of the look I'm going for an make sure that the Dr. understands this. I don't have the mentality of "bigger is better", I'd just like a little more and something that looks natural. Thanks for checking in if you're reading this!

How do you choose?
Ashers31September 17, 2013
I've been driving myself crazy trying to choose between saline or silicone implants. I know women who have both, and both look great. My problem is weighing the risk verse what I want. I'm not looking to go huge, so I'm fairly certain that saline will look ok on me.. but the feel of silicone is more appealing.
I just keep reading that there is a link between autoimmune disease and other health risks associated with silicone. For peace of mind, I'd like to go saline, but then I have to worry about having abnormally round looking breasts.. ugh. Any advice?

Thanks! I think I may have found some peace. I just decided that I'm going to stick with saline.. As much as I like the idea of silicone, I know I would constantly be worried about adverse health risks. lol Ugh, now I just have to figure out size! I tried on 300 filled to 330 of the moderate profile and they looked too big. The HP ones just seemed too rectangular.. going back on thursday to try more on.

I initially thought I was going with saline but with my breast tissue I think I should go with silicone. I ve did a lot of research on the new silicone and it seems like its not that bad lol plus you have to consider that saline shell is made out of silicone as well.

Hi,
Congrats on setting your date! It's so funny b/c you and I are pretty much well matched in the height, weight and body type departments! :) I too wear a VS 32C but only b/c the B is a little too tight and cuts the side of my boobs as well! To be honest, I actually like your boobs as is but I TOTALLY get getting them fixed (if you look at my pics..your in much better shape them I am)! I've been on a few consultations and so far I've (as well as all 3 PS so far) come to the conclusion that with my body type and silicone, under the muscle, moderate plus profile and about 339cc's would look great on me...and I too want something very natural with a bit of a slope on top....if I'm not mistaken the higher the profile the less of a slope you'll get on the breast but don't take my word for it...definitely talk to you PS about that....
I hope this helps in some way! :) Congrats and please keep us posted with your results...:)

oh and as for silicone getting you sick...there have been numerous studies done that do not link silicone breast implants with autoimmune disease or any other type of disease...there are tons of articles on line to help you further educate yourself so you can make the best choice for yourself! :) you can look up the implant manufacturer and see what they say (they usually have a site dedicated to the safety of their implants). :)

Seems like many women are getting silicone these days and there are a ton of reviews on women who feel confident, safe and happy with their silicone implants.If you haven't already, check out members Iris34 and OutlawCranium for some insight into whey they chose saline. I think you're safe with either one....but do ask your PS if one type is more suitable for your body.

Hi! Our surgeries are on the same date! Maybe we could be surgery buddies?
