Sizer Consultation

Some photos of the sizers I tried.

First consultation

Had my first consultation today with Dr. Edelstein and left feeling confident and nervous at the same time. Going to the consultation made the experience real after all of these months of researching and constantly perusing this website. The doctor was able to point out things about my breasts that I had never noticed before, and measured this, that and the other thing.
I told Dr. E that my goal for an end result is a natural, proportionate implant. Luckily for me, my BWD is capable of accepting the moderate profile, so I think that's what I'll stick with. I tried on 3 different sizers starting at 300, 340 and 360cc. Wearing these implants on the outside, did anyone else feel like their breasts were extending out over their arms? I'm fearful that the implants will make me look heavier if they extend to the sides.
Heather was there and made me feel so very comfortable. I'm glad she was there, I even think she helped my husband understand more about the sizing. Now to book a date.....

I've decided to document my experience on...

I've decided to document my experience on Realself, in hopes to help one person in their journey through a breast augmentation. I'm a 32 year old mother of 2 beautiful girls, I have a busy career and wonderful husband of 8 years. From as far back as I can remember, I've always felt embarrassed about my chest size and figured I would just have to live with it for the rest of my life. I've always felt relief in the winter months as I can apply layers of clothing, scarves and jackets to cover my chest, and despise the arrival of the warmer weather. Bathing suite season still gives me shivers (and it's January).
Having a BA never felt like it was an option for someone like me. My thoughts are centred around many things, but mainly around how I will be perceived by others. What will my parents say, how will I be treated by my colleagues, clients and friends? What I should have been thinking about was me and how I am going to feel when I am more proportionate and confident with my appearance. I'm still struggling with this part, but I am confident I will get through it.
This website has given me the courage to book my first consult and I've been waiting for the last 5 months for the appointment. I'm just over a month away from my first consult and I'm getting more excited with each day. I look at this website every evening and gather great information, questions to ask my PS and lots of helpful photos (Thank you, Ladies!!!).
I hope that I'll keep posting, but send me questions or comments if you wish to know more.
Some of my stats:
5'-1"
124 lbs and going down. I've started exercising and have real goals that I'm now sticking to thanks to my upcoming BA appt. Need the rest of the body to match the new additions ;)
Current bra size is 34A
Thanks for listening!
