Well I'm new here, but I just wanted to thank all...

Well I'm new here, but I just wanted to thank all you ladies for the help you have provided me. So I figured I should do the same, who knows someone might have the same stats as me!
Here are my stats:
5'1
109-116lbs (I'm a yoyo when it comes to my weight)
I'm a 34b according to Victoria's Secret, but really I feel like a 36A.
I'm hoping to be a small D // full C
Aerola incision// under the muscle
Oh and my nipples, I don't know if they're inverted or somewhat inverted, but I hate them. I'm hoping with this surgery it can fix that problem!!

Where to begin ! I've never liked my boobs. I've been wanting to do this procedure for a quite some time now, but never actually pulled the trigger until now!
Growing up I never had boobs. And I never liked mine. Ever. I'm just not comfortable with them at all. I've wore padded bras my whole life, the bombshell from Victoria's Secret was my best friend. Not to mention I was a false advertisement. Haha
I'm married, and my husband was not a fan of me doing this at first, but he's come around and just wants me happy. Hey happy wife happy life ???? jk. I don't pull that card haha.. His only concern is that I come out of surgery alive and well. And also going too big.. as to me, my concern is going too big or too small.. ????
I am a mother of 4, that's when I actually grew temporary boobs!! Like most women on here, we all wanted those milk boobies to stay, but that didn't last long for me (womp womp womp) I can't say I boobiefed (I say "boob" cuz I don't like the word "breast" ) I tried to boobie feed but it just never worked out for me. I was a full C when I was preggo. And it was nice while it lasted.
I made 450 cc rice sizers at home before any of my consults. I'd rather know what I'm trying to get than be like umm yea I just want boobs. Although it is like I just want boobs. But my perfect boobs!!! But I also know rice sizers aren't accurate.
I'm looking into the 425-450 cc range. But idk if that's too big now. I've read that if you do go under the muscle you lose 25cc. So I figured if I do 450, I'd be at 425cc. I'm not positive that I'm correct I'm just putting two and two together.

Anywho! I had 3 consultations. One with a Dr. From upland ca don't recall his name, but I do know that I wasn't comfortable with him at all. I really felt that he was only in it for the money. I didn't feel that patient/dr connection. That your suppose to feel..
My second consultation was with Dr. Pousti and the last consult was with Dr. Bruce Kadz.
I went to my consultation with Dr. Pousti on my bday, And let me tell you, it was AHHHMAAZING! I know most women say about their Drs but he is truly great. From the moment you walk you feel that welcoming feeling.. It was a fantastic first experience. The patient coordinator her name was Vanessa, she is soo wonderful, helpful, pretty, sweet and kind! I spent most of my time with her and I didn't mind, she seemed very knowledgeable at what she was talking about. In fact all the ladies do. Dr Pousti is amazing, he was thorough, honest, kind. He seems like a real genuine man. He answered most of questions, I only say that cuz it was the questions that I had at the time. At my consult I tried on sizers. Oh! And they also have this cool machine where they take your picture and you can play around with the sizes and shapes and profiles. It was like a 3d machine. It's called "vectra something" . It was cool. Back to my sizers I tried on the 350cc and I didn't like it all. No offense to the ladies that got that size it just wasn't for me. I told them get me out of the 300cc range, again no offense. After that we tried on 450cc and I loved it! Once again I know it's not accurate, but it gives you an idea. After that we tried the 500cc, I loved it too, BUT I know that might too big for my stats. I don't want to be unbalanced with everything else on my body. I don't mind the fake look because realistically anything is going to look fake because I started off with nothing! But I don't want it to look too fake.
They gave me my quote and I went home to think about everything.. With all that being said, it's obvious I went with Dr.pousti! Why wouldn't I. Is it bad that I only went to 2 consults? I mean I know your suppose to keep your options open but I know I found the right Dr. Oh and before booking my consult with him I read all his reviews and not one negative one. Or at least none that bothered me. It wasn't about his art work . it was over something dumb. That I find very interesting and helpful!!! & I also found him on this website!

My pre-op is sept 1st, not too far away. I'm guessing we will talk more about sizes, pay my dues, get my prescriptions and what not. I'm super excited and anxious! HECK I'm all sorts of emotions!! ????

I'm just scared of going to small or too big. I've read a lot about boob greed, but honestly I'm just thankful for having the chance to get some boobs. But seriously that dilemma bites you in the butt. So if any of you ladies have any suggestions let me know! Please and thank you!
Until then ??????

Post op day

So my post op was sept 1st. It went greats aid off my dues!! Told me what was expected got my prescriptions. Gave them my poster board. In case you guys didn't know Dr.Pousti asks that you make a poster board of your goals, dislikes and what not. I got a little carried away with mine haha.. We didn't necessarily go over sizes again because he told me during my surgery day is when he will make his final decisions.
Once again I was really hoping for 450cc range, you know the typical full C small D range. He did tell me that he doesn't think the 450 would fit, but in all honesty I wasn't all upset. Because he knows what's best for me and I did throw in there I did want to be proportionate with my body.
Again my stats are 5'1 110lbs 34B .
The one thing he didn't do was measure me like what I've read on some your guys reviews.
After my post op appt I went home. With the thought of him not being able to fit the 450cc in my breast made me think realistically. So I started looking up 375-425cc. I was honestly okay with 400cc as well. Even 395. I just spent my time on YouTube, Google, and real self to keep me occupied. Looking up ladies with similar stats compared to me. Sadly I really didn't any luck. But I finally said to myself I'm lucky enough to get this procedure done. So with whatever size I end up I'll be happy with. Anything is better than what I have now.
So I read over my instruction they sent me home with. Such as purchasing an antibacterial soap, bendy straws, loose clothing, and some stool softner.
I also slept with a sports bra so it wouldn't be so difficult for me to sleep in the surgical bra they send u home with, also slept in the home made rice sizers I made. Since implants you aren't just able to take them out whenever u want haha.
Counting the days went by soooo slow. I wasn't excited or anything well I was something but don't know exactly what kind of emotions.
I'm not going to lie I looked at my itty bitty boobies and wondered if I'm going to miss them, since it's what was given to me. But then again I want my confidence and wanted to feel real good about myself. This was for me nobody else. So I said "nah I'm not going to miss them!"
Did I have regret like to feel selfish? Nope. Because as a mom and a female alone our bodies go through so much that it's not fair for us to feel that guilt. We sacrifice so much and go through so much that we deserve this. :)
Only a couple more weeks till the big day! Until then.......

Happy boobalations!!!!!!!!

Well this is technically a late post, I had my surgery on sept 25, I'm 4 days post op. My appt was at 11, had some issues with my name since I recently got married I've been signing with my new fabulous last name and my id says my old last name haha silly me. But anywho I got called back in a little after my scheduled time my dr was running late, don't blame him. Gave me time to relax and calm my nerves. My husband was with me, while we were waiting I was like uhh u better Google where the nearest juice it up is haha and he did of course. So finally got called back in, and not oh boy was my nerves everywhere!! She took my vitals asked questions. Then put the yucky iv in I hate needles but can tolerate them. Then another nurse came in bright my poster board basically asked what my goal was which she practically already knew. After she had left she told Dr. Pousti would be in shortly. Then the anasteologist came in asked me a couple questions as well and after that here comes the magic maker!!

Dr. Pousti came in made all his markings, once again went over the sizing asked if I had any last minute questions. We went over them. He didn't give me the size of what he was going to do. So I was in for a surprise. Which was more exciting!
They walked me to the operating room which was cold as heck!! A lot of nice nurses. Had me lay down nice and comfy and the anasteologist told me once I feel the coldness go through the iv I'll be out in 10 seconds which was true. Didn't remember diddly squat after that.
I want to say I was in the O.R for maybe 1 hr not quite sure, but I woke up with some ladies sweet voice calling my name and telling me I was out of survey and it went well. She called back my husband which I was super happy to see cuz like most people I was afraid of not waking up from being put to sleep. But they gave him the run down on what to do after leaving the hospital. And my number question was "can you tell me what size he ended up going with?" LOL She tole me 375.. I said ok thanks.

The ride home was uncomfortable. I didn't have my Valium (which pls I advise you to bring it because all they give you is pain medication not muscle spasms one) it wasn't so much pain it was just tightness and pressure. But at first it was not bearable. I tried to sleep the way home. But you see my husbands driving is horrible, ok. Or horrible but I can't stand it. Lol
We get home I fall asleep for like a couple hrs.
It was till the day after I wanted to peek at them. So I asked my husband u want to peek at them and he said sure so I undid the surgical bra and dun dun dun come to my surprise my right breast said 430cc( it was slightly bigger than my left) and my left breast said 440cc. SO therefore it fit! I was extremely happy! Although it has a lot of healing to do and a lot of swelling to go down I'm still super excited to see my final results! I knew he wouldn't let me down! But just so we're clear he used 375 bags but filled one to 430cc and one to 440cc.
Oh and as far as pain meds I'm off them I'm only taking extra strength Tylenol. AND I made some bowel movements. Which trust me is very exciting if your used to going everyday and all of sudden to nothing lol but it's time for sleep since I do have babies to get to in the morning! I'll ipdatw more!
