WORTH IT$3,300
I am going in for my first augmentation at the end of June! I have decided to go with Dr. Bennett located in Murray, UT. I had 5 consultations and chose him because he seemed to have the most confidence in his skills without being gimicky. He also has 40 years experience in plastic surgery! I was worried about needing a lift as well because the doctors on here told me from my pictures it looked like I needed a lift. 4 out of the 5 doctors I saw in person said no lift, so I am going with augmentation only and will do a lift as a second procedure if I decide I want one. I'm going with 400cc saline unders and I'm currently a B cup hoping to be a D cup. I'm getting very excited but very nervous a about surgery and post-op pain! What is the worst part?

How funny that we're having our surgery on the same day! I'm not sure of the time yet, they said they would give me a time at my pre op. I am getting so exited I don't know how I'm going to make it thru the next few weeks!

Ok...I'm starting to freak out!!! My surgery is exactly 3 weeks away and I am sooooo excited but nervous at the same time. I am starting to rethink my 400cc decision! I am currently a deflated 34-36B and I am hoping to be a D. I am much more worried about being too big rather than being too small, and suddenly I have this fear that I am going to come out of surgery with HUGE boobies! I don't want to have to buy XL shirts just to fit over my chest! I am going to try sizes on again at my pre op, but that isn't for over 2 weeks!

I went to Kohls I don't want to go to VS until I am done dropping . I bought a 36 DD the cup fit but I really need a 34 so I might need a 34/DDD . I might go there in a couple of weeks .

Tomorrow is the big day!!! I am so nervous but sooooooooooo excited!! I have been so nervous about 400cc being too big so I tried sizes one more time at my pre op on Tuesday. I decided to stick with the 400, the other sizes were just not quite what I want. I just know I'm not going to be able to sleep tonight because I'm so excited...
Wish me luck, ladies!

I wish you the best of health and a super fast and easy recovery! I'll be thinking of you! Keep me posted on how you do. At least we have a day to day comparison with each other. It's great to have a BA Buddy! I hope you get some sleep tonight, I'm not sure I will. Prayers are heading your way!

I hope your doing well! I've been pretty good all day. I got home around 11 AM. Not bad since my PS is over an hour away and my surgery was at 7:30 AM. Tonight I went 20 minutes past the 4 hour mark to take the pain meds and I'm feeling it. I have some bruising between my breast towards the bottom and lots of swelling. If I press on my chest you can hear it squish. I can also hear it gurgle or squish in my boob if I reach or do something that engages my peck muscles. Yuck! I hope that goes away soon. I'm also drinking a ton of water, I am SOOO thirsty. I'm peeing alot too. Luckily I have no trouble going to the bathroom by myself. I pray you are doing great and are not in pain. Keep up with your meds! Take Care and please keep me posted when you feel up to it.
You're going to do great! If you haven't already, check out Makenzie's awesome review of her breast aug. It's full of great information and videos. Please do keep us posted as you get closer to the big day!
