I’m excited but nervous. I’ve had my under muscle saline implants for 16 years and 2 Babies which I WAS ABLE TO BREASTFEED for 2.5-3 years each. So thankful for that. Lately my breasts have been aching, especially my right one. No real medical problems that I am aware of at this point. My main reason for removing, other than aching is the desire to run, jump rope, play hop scotch and just play with my boys without having to hold my breasts. Updated on 26 Oct 2018: I’m crazy nervous. Am I making the right decision???? All these thoughts are going through my head. I’m still unsure of the time of my surgery or how long it should take. Did you all have these concerns? I wonder how much they weigh? Updated on 11 Nov 2018: Yikes. One more week. I just received a call finalizing all and learning the time of my surgery. I’m nervous, anxious and apprehensive. I think I’m ready though. I have attached my Before pictures to view. Updated on 11 Nov 2018: This is one day post-op. I’m feeling great. The only discomfort I am having is it feels like my sports bra is too tight around my rib cage. I’ve been resting quite a bit today and my hubby is on “mommy duty” it’s pretty entertaining.

Ever since I hit puberty at age 11 it seemed like I never had small breasts, I immediately went from being flat to having large c cups and then DDDs in only a matter of a couple years, which contributed to constantly being catcalled by older men in their cars while I would walk home after school, and I was unable to wear fitting clothes or participate in sports and running. My posture is severely affected by the weight of my chest and I sport a neck hump because of it :( After years of taking pain meds and attempting yoga, regular exercise, seeing a chiropractor, changing my diet with no change in size at all , and wanting a breast reduction but wasn't able to get covered, in February of this year (2018) I asked my primary care doctor about getting a reduction and was finally approved after I talked about my breathing problems and physical pain due to the weight. My surgery date is in 3 weeks, on May 17th. I'm more excited than nervous, I've never needed or wanted anything more in my life. Will update more as my journey continues ? Updated on 18 May 2018: Went in for surgery at 6 am, Thursday may 17th, The procedure started around 7:30 and I was out by 12:00 pm. Currently writing this at day 1 post op, dealing with a 7 out of 10 on the pain scale, I've got drains and a surgical bra. Will have to wear the drains for about a week. There's a definite difference, even with all the dressings and swelling my breasts are small, around the large b cup to c cup range. Updated on 25 May 2018: God my drains removed Wednesday, May 23rd Still sore, can't sleep on my sides but loving how small I am! I'm about a c cup and still swollen, so they'll probably be a tad smaller after full recovery. I finally get to shower tomorrow so I'll be posting better pics then Updated on 26 May 2018: Still feeling like I was hit by a truck, probably because this was my first major surgery. I Can sleep a bit on my right side, but not the left as they did more work on the left breast due to it being significantly bigger than my right. They're still misshapen from the swelling and my nipples are still flat and don't get hard when cold yet, but I still have sensitivity, maybe even a bit more than I had before surgery. I'm around a medium c cup but since they're still swollen I'm sure they'll get smaller which is what I'm looking forward to. I can lift and move my arms around more every day, but I still have to wear button up shirts for comfort. My surgery physician said I can begin to take the tape off as I shower, which I tried to do today but it hurt so I'll just gradually do it over the next few days. Will post more pictures when I get the tape off! Updated on 26 May 2018: After swelling my breasts will be a bit smaller but I'm going to work out so they'll be closer to a b cup as that's been my dream size for as long as I can remember. Time to go to target and find a sports bra. Updated on 7 Jan 2019: im around a big c small d i would guess, since j have not been measured yet. my scars are healing nicely, i apply lanolin, rose water witch hazel and cocoa butter vaseline several times a week. my nipples are slightly asymmetrical, one being slightly higher than the other but i’m just too busy being happy about being this size to care. i like to call them decent handfuls, lol my surgeon did an amazing job. gonna wear more crop tops and mesh shirts this year.

I wanted to have these breast implants out for a while and finally had the nerve to go through with it. They ere hard as rocks and started getting a little deformed. I talked to my husband, who has only seen me with the size 32D breast and needed to have him on board with this. He was totally supportive and didn't care what they would look like and was more concerned that I was healthy and would be around for growing old together. I am 4 days post op and feel great. I had no idea that my implants were in such bad shape. My doctor had to scrape out as much as he could find of the silicone. My drains are hopefully coming out tomorrow morning. I started shopping online for some beautiful bras to enhance my beautiful small natural breast. It is no longer a fad to be a blonde big breasted Pamela Anderson, bombshell. Many Hollywood women are removing theirs with no replacement. I will add photos as I get them from the doctor. Updated on 30 Mar 2015: I'm hanging in there. I hope my little boobies are going to look better. I have so much energy now! Updated on 5 May 2016: My health is much better and my bones, joints and muscles don't hurt or ache or swell anymore! But since my implementation I have indentations the size and length of my finger on both breast at the cleavage area. It really is noticeable and gross! I bought a breast pump to message them vigorously to break up the underlying scar tissue but they're still very noticeable. Updated on 26 Apr 2023: I’m glad I had them removed. I do miss the volume that the implants filled in to my breast feeding flat breast. I only had B implants because I already was a B and wasn’t going for that Hollywood sexpot look. As a result my breast didn’t look that bad after they were removed. I was on social security and Medicare paid for mine being removed. My health is great!
