Hi everyone!!!
Wow it feels like forever since I have been on here. Since my 6 week checkup I have been working out furiously trying to catch up from the 6 week recovery!!! I am working out daily (Bootcamp, yoga, BodyPump, kickboxing, Zumba) basically anything I can do to get back in shape!! The "girls" set me back physically but I am working well with them now. I do not even feel I have had implants they feel that natural!!!
I saw my PS on Wednesday, everything is great! My left side implant has some muscle distortion due to being left dominant, but he said to wait it out a bit as I will keep changing in the next 9 months. Basically my left pec muscle is stronger than my right so it pulls the implant up a bit more when I flex. Apparently it happens to ~75% of women that are very active and get sub muscular implants. I will post some new pics too!
Later!

When your dropped, how was it as for as the way they looked? I'm curious on how mine will look after the dropping part. I'm scared that I'm going to lose alot. Does the shape change? Will it be more round looking and will I lose alot of what I'm seeing at the top right now? I'm three weeks and one day today and I am already noticing that they are getting smaller from the swelling going away. I wonder how long it take for the swelling to go away completely. i just hope I don't lose too much because I got them filled up for a reason, not to lose it :) So many questions..

It was at least 4 weeks before i started to feel "normal" where the swelling subsided and it didn't feel like I had something glued to my chest!! I think by 6 weeks I was really starting to feel they were a part of my body. Now at 3 months they are wonderfully soft and natural looking!!!

Hello ladies, I haven't been on here in awhile. I wanted to first say Hello to all the kind ladies Makenzie, Mama and Twins4me who had their surgery around the same time as me!! Hope all are well. I feel great I'm loving my new chest and buying summer clothes. I feel I can finally "rock" a tank top or sleveless shirt. I want to also reply to Lawoman2 I noticed mine did drop I know what you mean about how high they probably are right now. You will lose some of that but in my case they just dropped to the point of looking much more natural giving me better cleavage. I think the swelling was gone by 4 weeks. They also get a lot softer feeling but you won't "lose" them. I know I have nightmares I"m going to wake up and they are "gone" LOL . Hang in there you will be fabulous they will not go away. Honestly the way they dropped for me it was so gradual and so slight that I never noticed all at once that I even dropped if that makes sense, I hop so. :) Well, I finally went bra shopping not that I plan to wear bras often but it amazed me to shop in the DD section (at long last) I just turned 42 last week and feel so happy about my new chest. Wait until you get to figure out your new bra size it's excited. Only thing I find is Victoria Secret doesn't go up that high as DD?? I have to find a new shop. some of the stores have "granny" looking bras at DD sizes so maybe Frederick's of Hollywood?? I'm rambling on here but just wanted to come on here and chat I haven't logged in in such a long time.

Yes -So far I have seen Dr Jones 3X. consult, surg and post op. Go for my 5 day Monday. I have learned so much from your blogs, and crazy enough I went to Dr Jones because of Twins4me's posts. I wake up every day so glad they are there. Can't wait until my 4 wks or so...I am so scared I'm going to make something move wrong, or I'm going to move wrong. Bust a stitch, massage wrong, anything. I've been trying to figure out if the implants are whats in the high part or in middle or at bottom and where is my old small amount of original boob...And we put 25 more cc's in right but left is bigger...questions questions...

2orchid, I know how you feel. Even at 3 months I'm still worried some days when I wake up if I slept on my stomach if I "hurt" them and also felt the same way in the beginning but in time you forget they are there and just get back ot your normal life. Once the pain wears off you forget. Of course I'm still "careful" and using my scar cream but I think about them a lot less. Except when I try on clothes and feel so great about them :) That is so great that you found a surgeon based on blogs from Twins4me, this is a great forum for researching and getting opinions from real people that are living this out. I"m glad for you. I know what you mean re: original boob, I always had a sore spot during my period that was high up next to my nipple, now I feel that soreness but lower in my boob, to me that must be my "original" boob , it's hard to tell with my implant under the muscle. I had a lift too so I know my nipples were moved up a lot but it's so amazing my Dr was a true artist to me I think it's amazing what he did for me. It blows my mind really. Best of luck to you.

Thank you...its crazy I finially entered this world of implants, and what a wonderful invention! I have read on here where women are told to sleep on their stomaches to stretch muscles and my doc says no. I stumbled across this forum and have told so many about now! I decided going to do after 10yrs (since 1st consult) was sceduled in June then got the call that they could do 3 days from setting 1st appt. Had to hustle to get ekg, chest x-ray, mammo and bloodwork (I am 51-all extra required after age 50) So anyway didn't have time to have or post the jitters prior to surg. I don't have pics yet but will see if I can get docs.

Thank you ladies! @ Christine, I bought a DD bra from victorias secret. Make sure you go through the drawers that they have too cause most of the time the racks only hold the tiny bras (the ones that fit little petite models lol ) I am also a DD as victorias secret says. And as far as the dropping thing. I guess I just worry so much bc I told my doc to make my breast implants look natural and they already look natural to me on the exception of the funny bulge I have at the top when I am at side view (I have a photo of that) The swelling went down alot. i need to update it so that you can see. I guess I just dont want them to drop too much bc they already look natural to me, you know?

6 weeks today!!! I am so excited! I went to yoga and had a great workout. Its been frustrating not being able to do a full workout! I feel flabby and fat!!
I looked at the girls tonight and saw my left one has dropped into place (yay) but the right is still sitting up higher. I cannot wait for it to drop!!
I am going to wear my new lacy bra (no pushup/padding!!)
This procedure is not for the faint of heart! It's been a long journey and I am not done yet!! I will post pics soon.
Hope everyone is doing well!

Hello, you look really good! I'm considering Dr. Jones for my augmentation it looks like he does really nice work jus a quick question when he preformed the surgery was it at the consult location or did you have to go to a different location? Like at a hospital?

Everything is done at his office and it is accredited, so nothing to worry about there. Some PS surgery centers are not accredited, I don't recommend them. Good luck!!!

Hi Natalie, I was an A (but I like to think B- b/c A is just so depressing!!) before children I was a nice C, but after the kiddos, weight loss, and lots of yoga I was starting to look like a 12 yo boy!! Now I am proudly a DD!!! Yay for me!! What I also love is they do not look out of place, even as a DD, I am beyond happy, I still have some dropping/fluffing to do but I am very happy with the results so far!

Oh I was (or thought I was a 36B) but after consult I found out I was an A. Then after being properly sized I found I was 34 inches, not 36, so now I am a 34DD.

It's crazy how different the same size implant and/or bra size looks on different women. You don't look like a DD and the sizing looks really good on you!
