Hi! I am new here. Surgery is set for December...

Hi! I am new here. Surgery is set for December 27th. So nervous! I am 34 years old and have 3 kids. I am recently divorced and decided that it was time to repair the damage that has been done to my boobs by having 3 kids and losing weight. I am planning on saline implants under the muscle through the armpit. Still debating between 330cc or 350cc, scared about going too big.

I am 5'1" about 120lbs. I don't want to look like I have fake boobs, just would like to be able to look the way that I do with clothes on, without the need of a really good push up bra! I currently wear a 34C bra, but my boobs are severely deflated and saggy. Hoping for a nice full, natural look after my procedure. I would love to be able to chat with others that may have some of the same questions, concerns, nerves. Or just for advice and moral support.

You're in the right place! I'd recommend going through some other reviews in the community and leaving comments so others can find your story here. It's a great way to support each other.

Thanks so much for sharing and please keep us posted!

Hello! I am new here as well! My surgery is Dec. 19th and I'll be getting 325 or a little more under the muscle. Keep me posted!

Had my pre op appointment last Friday the 14th. Paid the balance and had bloodwork done. They gave me my prescriptions to be filled prior to my surgery date and also the vitamin package. I am still torn between whether to go with 330cc or 350cc. I explained to the doctor that I was looking for full natural results and did not want to be too big and he said he would make the decision the day of surgery based on how it looks. I am still moving forward with Mentor saline implants with an armpit incision. I asked about what kind/size of bra to bring to wear after surgery and he does not want me to wear a bra afterwards, said he likes for them to fall into place naturally. I thought that was kind of strange but I have several friends that have gone to him and did the same and they have great results...hope I will too. I have not done a whole lot to prepare. Been really busy with getting ready for Christmas. I think the distraction is probably good for my nerves. I am scared...but more excited to get it done! I can't wait to see the results. I will try to add some before pictures in the next couple of days.

Tomorrow is the big day...I hope! I have had a cold the past week. Was running a low fever over the weekend with a cough and sore throat. Feeling better today, no more fever but still have a bit of a cough. Hoping we can go as scheduled tomorrow but also don't want to take any risks and am prepared to rescheule if the doctor recommends doing so. I am scheduled to arrive at the doctors office at 3:00. I wasn't planning on the surgery being so late in the day! I have to stop eating at midnight and am sure I will be starving by surgery time. Looking forward to getting it over and done with! Posting some before pics.
