I am a single mother of three and after I had my first son I wanted to get my boobs done. I knew I wanted more kids so I waited until I was sure I wasn't going to have any more. Now that I'm the mother of three great, crazy kids I am finally ready.
I am a little worried about how sore I'm going to be after the surgery and would appreciate any advice. My plan is to have my kids go with family for the first week and then hire a nanny for the two weeks after they come home. My youngest is only 1 years old and she likes to be held and cuddled a lot. Will I be able to do that? How long did the pain last?

I am very happy that I had this done. Even my mom, who was totally against it, complimented me on how great they look!!!


Yay! I'm so excited for you.
Going from what I've read from other ladies on RealSelf, you'll be pretty darn sore for a while. The first three days sound like they're the hardest, but the swelling and soreness lasts for longer than you'd hope. Still, almost everyone is so glad they did this! The results are very dramatic and amazing.
