Hello community! I have to say what a pleasure it...

Hello community! I have to say what a pleasure it has been reading all of your stories and I want to say thank you for sharing. It has eased my mind and really made me feel that I'm not so alone in the hunt for normal breasts.

I am 32 years old with 2 children, ages 4 & 5. I am 5'3" and weigh 117 lbs. i wear a 34A. I decided when I was 12 that I wanted breast implants. Yes, 12. I was the only 7th grader who didn't need to wear a bra. I remember writing (using snail mail, before internet) to the "Teen" magazines asking for advice on exercises to increase my bust size or if there were any creams available to help with this.

This continued until high school, when I finally developed mosquito bites, but hey, they were still better than nothing. I was still ashamed to shower around the other girls. I was a 34A and still am to this day.

It has always been so hard to find a bikini top that fit or that made me look like a normal female. And sundresses... Forget about it! I have to have the padded bras. Well- I call them pillowed bras.

I finally decided, and had enough spare money to go for it! I had my consult in early March and after trying on many styles, I liked the 380cc moderate plus salines. April 12, was my Pre-Op and my first time meeting the surgeon (Pre-Op was with his assistant) after some measuring he suggested that high profiles would look great, so I am going with that. I totally trust him. They printed out pictures of what I would look like with the HP's and the Mods and honestly, I can't see a difference. So, I trust his instinct.

I have been buying easy to access fruits and veggies, sports bras and online browsing for bikinis like crazy. My surgery is April 24. They will call me tomorrow and let me know exactly what time to come in. I am sooo excited!

This will be the end of 20 years of me being self conscious about my breasts. I am so ready. And, so blessed to have this opportunity.

So, they called me just now to tell me that my...

So, they called me just now to tell me that my appointment time for tomorrow is 9 am! Works out great, my husband can take me after the kids go to school. I'm not worried about the pain itself, or being out under. My babies were natural births, no epidural and, I've been under before for thyroid surgery. Woke up vomiting, so they will be sure to give me something for that in my iv. I am however, worried about the days after. The very next day (25th) I have a function at my daughters school that I cannot miss. I have a driver to take me there. I just hope I make it through it. Friday the kiddos do not have school. And, Saturday my daughter has an activity that was planned months ago, that I must be there for. Please give me strength!

It's finally here. The butterflies are swarming! Wow, this time tomorrow I will have boobies. Awesome!

Hello Beth, and thanks for the warm welcome! I...

Hello Beth, and thanks for the warm welcome! I did explain to the kids that I went to the Dr. And they can't jump on me or hug me tightly for a while. I sure hope I make it to my daughters pageant.

So yesterday was the big day. I arrive at 9. Immediately a nurse takes me back for ky vitals. Then, the anesthesiologist comes and and is very thorough and very likable. My surgeon comes in to draw on me, the hubs was given my Rx to go fill and off I go.

I remember laying there and the song that was on was "Jump "Jump". LoL. Early 90's station. Haha. I remember the anesthesiologist comes and and says here's you 3 rum and cokes in your iv. I was out.

I woke up in soooo much pain. Immediately I could feel something awful in my left breast. They said it was normal. They put me in my surgical bra, which was so painful, I can't describe it. I start to get nauseated. So they gave me medicine for that and a patch my ear. They go get the hubby and we are discharged @ 2:10

The ride home was so bad, this little town is pothole central, it was rough. My mother was waiting on my porch for us. I tried to make a semi bed on my couch, or at least some pillows for support, but I kept sliding off the leather. I ended up going to my room and laying down praying for 5:00 to come, that's when I could take another pain pill. Boy, did I need it.

I have a huge pain tolerance, but this was excruciating. The hardest is getting out of my bed. How did you all do it?? I got up around 8pm to see my hubby off to work (nightshift). I stated up until about 12:30 am. Felt kind of decent.

I went to bed at 1:00am and remember seeing the clock very hour. It was so hard to get comfortable and waking up to pee or take medicine was so difficult. I actually yelp when I have to get out of bed.

This morning I had a follow up at 11, they said everything's good so far. Left one is a little higher than the right. Taking and putting the surgical bra and horrible. I don't understand why it's so tight. I wish I could just wear a supportive sports bra and my band. But they tell me I have to wear this surgical and band for 24 hours a day for a month. Only taking it off to bathe or wash it. I don't think I'll make it. It's so tight it feels like its cutting off my circulation. Anyone had this problem?

I laid around the rest of the day, making sure to take my pain meds, muscle relaxers and antibiotics. A lot of times today I used ice packs, which helps momentarily. But I really feel this bra is the problem.

I see the surgeon again on Tuesday, so I'll talk to him about this. The bra pinches what little skin I have between my breasts together.

Really hoping I can get some sleep tonight but this bra is killing me. I may have to take it off just to get some relief, even though my papers say to leave it on. It's causing me constant pain. I did a lot of research about these bras, and aren't they supposed to be for comfort? It took a large nurse giving it all she has to clasp this thing on me.

Praying for some rest and for it to get easier to get out of my bed tonight.
