Sooo sick of my big boobs. Will edit site after I upload pictures - I lost my original post before I uploaded :)

Age now: 45. First augmentation age: 21 (5'9, 125lbs). Original size 34B. Size now 34D (140lbs). Nursed 4 children after augmentations. (Yep augmentations!) Never had a problem with original size; just wanted my boobs to look more similar. sigh.

Love this site - wish I could have found it years ago, would have had these suckers taken out a LONG time ago! I want to be small, wear normal bra's, have shirts fit again, sleep on my tummy and sides; just don't want to be saggy or have one boob look so different than the other...

Not nervous about surgery or pain. Just tired of waiting...

Will post more before surgery when I have time...

I don't think you'll look saggy at all, since you are not at all now! If you want to see someone that's gonna end up saggy, take a look at my pics! I am sick of my big boobs too! I sure wish the doctors told us the reality of big boobs, and how breast reduction patients are some of their happiest- with a reason! Good luck with your surgery, I'm sure you'll be just fine!

Oh my gosh. Just read your story and your boobs have been through a lot! Well, you must be relieved knowing that tomorrow will be the last surgery you need to get through! You must be feeling that your life has revolved around the state of your breasts for the last couple years! No wonder you are so looking forward to them being out! Keep us updated!

More to the story:
I got 200's 25 years ago after one child. After left saline implant deflated was convinced to go way bigger 600cc's. Hated the size from the start. Only lasted about 6 years and begged the doctor to get them out. He said I wouldn't like it, but would go smaller. Went down to 425's he said because the pocket was too big. Had 425's sloshing around for about 8 years or so. Had twins and a singleton with those in. Those caused me problems with breast feeding and to get the milk out had to use a hospital grade breast pump. Right after the birth of my youngest, I developed a golf ball sized lump. My family doctor and OB/GYN had HORRIFIED looks on their faces when they felt it and said they had never come across a lump that size. We thought it was cancer. They recommended getting the lump and the implants removed ASAP. Got the lump removed (no cancer cells detected!) and went to get implants out - yes! Plastic surgeon said I wouldn't like results...

Story continued from above: Can you believe it??? Again, it was said to me that I wouldn't like the results. I was upset, but said, ok then I want to be a B cup. Small small small. I told him that. This was just last year; March of 2011. So I went in for a lift and a replacement with what I thought would be small implants. I came out with lifted breasts, one higher than the other and 350cc implants! I was so upset at the size, I thought - why won't these doctors go smaller??? The doctor had to do some major repairs on the pocket to make them smaller to accommodate the smaller implant. I was in surgery for 5 hours. He does high quality work, but I seriously think that plastic surgeons are no used to women who want their implants out and are ok with smaller breasts - they are mostly used to women who want to go bigger. I don't think they truly listen like they should. I know I should have emphasized my feelings more to let him know that I want my small boobies back...
