WORTH IT$6,400
All my life I've barely been an A cup. After nursing 2 babies, I was left with a AA and nothing pretty. I want to feel feminine and sexy to my husband. I want to be confident in my workout wear. I'm so thankful I came across Dr. Burgdorf and staff! The communication and support have been amazing. I am confident that I will get a set of boobs that fit my body and meet what we discussed in the consultation.

11 days from surgery!
I just got an email that let me know I'm 11 days out from surgery! That seems so far away at this point! I'm excitedly getting all my "ducks in a row" to prepare for the big day. Buying sports bras yesterday was surreal when looking for bigger sizes! I just can't wait to see how I will actually fill that thing up! Right now, I look like a teenage boy when I wear a sports bra.
Anyone have any suggestions of things they did before surgery that really helped make things easier after? I'm leaving to go out of town next week and actually won't be back until the day before surgery. I've got to get everything figured out here soon!

Eva...the list of 13 things was great. One thing that was a complete life saver for me was a backpack water bottle insert. You know, the things that bicyclists will use on long rides? My husband had one of those and that was brilliant. Reaching for a cup or even holding it was really tough those first couple of days. Having that pouch with the ultra long straw was a life saver! I was able to get all those fluids in!

But a triangular wedge pillow!! It's perfect for sleeping elevated and helps you get in and our of bed when you can't use your arms. I had my second BA 5 weeks ago and I'm still using mine to prevent morning boob and backaches. I love it!! Especially for all those delicious naps the first few days ---- so cozy. Congrats!!!

Also, you cannot bend over for many weeks, so pick up things you may need from the floor and put them on counters now. Same for things that are too high up -- no reaching for a while. Buy a large refillable water bottle and drink a ton of water right after surgery to help flush the anesthesia.

Wow! They are really there! I can't wait to see what "the girls" will really look like in the next couple of weeks. The first couple of days were really tough with soreness. Everything felt so tight and I didn't have much range of motion. The best thing we bought was one of the camelback backpack drink inserts. I could just lay the pouch on the bed and drink out of the straw. It was perfect! I hated asking someone to get me a drink so frequently. This allowed me to have access to drink a lot!
The surgery process also went really great as well. Dr. Burgdorf came in to see me that morning and discuss any more questions about the surgery and mark my chest up in preparation. He followed up with my husband after surgery and even stopped in again to see me. My son and husband have had surgeries where we didn't see the surgeon before OR after. So to see Dr. Burgdorf both times was great. He was wonderful to put any fears or anxieties at bay.
