Had my pre-op 2 weeks ago. Super excited and nervous.. 2 weeks from today I will be on the other side!!!! I am a 30 yr old mom of two young boys, 5'7" 125lbs. Sized to get close to 400cc moderate plus silicone implants. Still have received my scrips for the meds and everything I need for surgery? Should I have that yet? I will leave some before pics. Updated on 15 Feb 2016: These are all pictures with about 395cc sizers. (Some 375, another 415) and to me they all look similar. Counting down the days!! 10 more days! Updated on 25 Feb 2016: Nerves are starting to set in...can't believe tomorrow is the day!! More pre op photos. My only concern is that that will be too big. 385 gel full profile. Dr says I needed to go that size to fill up the loose saggy skin. Updated on 26 Feb 2016: Everything went really well. I feel surpsingly well after all that. Having date night on the couch with hubby. Obviously sore when I move but if I stay out virtually no pain. Keeping up in my meds. Hoping tomorrow goes just as smooth! Updated on 27 Feb 2016: Feeling really great this morning. I thought it would be a lot more painful. Even after I woke up this morning they were mostly just sore and tender. Nothing I can't tolerate but hubby insists I take meds at least for another day or two. Updated on 28 Feb 2016: I haven't taken an narcotics for oain today. Just a little valium and arnica to help relax the sore muscles. I go in for post op tomorrow morning. Updated on 28 Feb 2016: Updated on 2 Mar 2016: Feel an air bubble near right arm pit. Also some gurgling and bubbles an inch below each incision on my ribs? Calling Dr to see if this is normal. Updated on 2 Mar 2016: Updated on 3 Mar 2016: Tried to take it slow and easy. Still ended up a little swollen and sore. Righty is still riding high and is the most painful near incision and arm pit. Lefty is virtually pain free and doesn't seem very swollen. Overall glad to be back to work and have some normalcy. Happy with results so far. Each day gets better!! Updated on 8 Mar 2016: Feeling really great! Its hard to remember that I can't pick up anything heavier than 5lbs. When I do too much I feel sore near incisions and sternum. My alarm clock went off this morning and I sat up with my arm and leaned on my elbow to reach over to shut it off. Not a good idea. A little sore after that. Air bubbles on ribs have been gone for a few days ago. Air or fluid pocket one right side near armpit is way smaller too. I really feel mostly back to normal except when I over due it. Loving how they look. Getting softer every day. Hoping they will look good enough for a Boudoir Photo Shoot in about a month from now. Updated on 8 Mar 2016: Updated on 13 Mar 2016: Updated on 16 Mar 2016: I know it's still early. Just for fun I went to VS to get fitted. Measured 34D and 34DD depending on the bra. Updated on 25 Mar 2016: Its been a month and I feel great! I am loving my new curves :) I got 385cc silicone gummy bear implants. All issues of air pockets and bubbles have resolved themself. The new thing I noticed is when I bend over I can feel slight rippling towards the middle underside. Cannot feel it when I am upright. I finally took the sterile strips off last night. I was pleasantly surprised at how well one of them looks. The right one looks fabulous. It is smooth and barely noticeable. The left one is raised a little. One month post op is on Monday. Excited to hear what is next for scar care and massaging since I was just supposed to let them rest and heal thus far. Happy with the size I don't think they are too big at all. Updated on 9 Apr 2016: All good things!! I feel they have dropped and "fluffled" quite a bit. They are squishy and jiggle when I walk. No pain anywhere. Have been sleeping on side for awhile I can lift my kids again and have been back to normal activity since 4 weeks. Dr says to wear two sports bras if I want to go for a run. I feel like this is the perfect size for my once saggy boobies. They said I could have went up a size but I feel like this makes them look more natural because I can hide them in bug clothing or make them look huge with a tight shirt. Perfect size for me :) I love how I feel, how I look, and how my hubby looks at me. It has made shopping fun because now I can wear a backless dress and fill out my tops. No regrets!!! Updated on 25 May 2016: All is going well here! I forget I even have new boobs because they feel like they are mine now. Natural and squishy!! Best thing I've ever done for myself!!
