I am 32 years old, 5'5", 144 lbs and currently wear a 34 B (though I do have gapping) my bwd is 13. I am getting Natrelle saline moderate profile 390-420 filled to 420, under the muscle, incision in crease of breast.
I have given birth to 1 child (adopted 1 as well) and breast fed for 5 months. I didn't lose a lot of breast tissue after nursing but I did gain about 50lbs after losing my baby weight. Fast forward 5 years and I have just lost about 40 lbs and now my breast are just sad and empty, when I bend over it is even worse! I am finally financially able to have this done and so excited. I was originally scheduled for April 10th but it was rescheduled due to the rona outbreak :/I was originally going to get ideal implants but my surgeon's office recieved an email stating that they are out of stock and didn't give an estimated time that they will be available again. I was tired of waiting and honestly it is about $2,000 cheaper to do regular saline. I was bummed because the warranty isn't as good as ideal but I am so ready to do this! If anyone can inform me on their fill level with saline implants I'm very curious. My surgeon said she likes to over fill by 10% but I told her I really don't want them to feel hard, I want them to be squishy and bouncy. She said we could fill to maximum recommend fill level and be good. I have seen on here that some women get them under filled which in theory sounds like a soft squishy boob, but then you can get rippling and potentially a rupture from rippling. As with almost everyone on here I am second guessing my choice in size. With the ideal it was pretty straightforward, choose the size that fit my bwd and fill to desired size (they don't have different profiles). So now, I'm getting natrelle and with my bwd I can get moderate 390-420 or if I got high profile it would be more like 500cc. I already had the idea of 400cc in my head so I instantly chose moderate, and of course now I'm second guessing everything. It's probably to late to change my mine now but I really want nice round boobs with good cleavage! Sigh, why do women have to be so picky? ;)I have been extremely happy with Dr Mars and all of her staff. Isela has been amazing at navigating through all of the covid stuff and advocating for me to get the test. They have a private surgical suite so since it isn't through a hospital, I was having a heck of a time finding anyone who would do the test. Isela worked her magic and informed me this evening that she found a facility that will do it, yay! This is finally going to happen!

I had my covid test on Friday (not fun) and it came back negative. All systems are go for surgery on Friday. I'm attaching my before pictures and the best that I could take with the sizers. I'm so excited I can hardly sleep.

Everything went great, I was super nervous being alone but the staff were all very nice. I did wake up a little nauseous but have been able to control it with meds. Finally took a percocet at 1:00 and am feeling much better. I did have quite a bit of pain but I think the laying down resting part was causing that. I'm sitting outside with the hubby now and the kids are napping. Feeling much better, and they look good! I'll get a better peek later

Pain has been good, I slept through the night last night propped up on my wedge pillow and 2 pillows laid across it. The 2nd night I slept in my husbands fancy chair slightly reclined. It has a small table mounted to the arm of the chair so I was able to take meds during the night without waking the hubby to help me. I'm super bloated like all over not just my abdomen. But feeling good, no boobie blues at this point (knock on wood). I've been feeling super itchy in between, like my sternum area, probably from skin stretching? I had my husband put some bio oil and that helped and he thoroughly enjoyed doing it ;) I'm trying to upload pics but I have them in a secure folder and keep forgetting how to access them from this site.

Natrelle saline 400cc in left, 420cc in right, under the muscle, incision in crease of breast. Sorry I haven't updated much. I'm less obsessed now that I actually have them but trying to keep posting because it helped me so much. The bloating has gone down substantially, I've been having regular bm's and had only taken stool softeners here and there. I finished my antibiotics and am off the percocet and valium. I am able to use ibuprofen now per my PS (she only had me using tylenol or percocet for the 1st 7 day's). Sleeping on my back is killing me and now that my boobies don't hurt, my body is instinctively trying to roll over several times a night. My back hurts more than anything so thank goodness for the ibuprofen. Anyway, here are some updated pics. I feel like they're dropping a little, though comparing pics it doesn't appear that they are. I do feel them rubbing underneath against my skin when I don't have a bra on so they must be. Still high and tight though. I went and bought several bra's some with underwire and some without. So far I'm a 34 D. Oh, and I freaking love them already! Can't wait to see the end result. My husband loves them too and I flash him anytime we're alone in a room together ;) I'll try to update more or at least weekly PS this site is being weird so let me know if pics show

I'm feeling pretty darn good these days, I love my boobs and haven't had a single regret. A lot of women go through what seems to be a little depression after the surgery (as per reveiws) but I never did. Though mine have definitely been high and tight they didn't look as crazy as I expected. My husband loves them and so do I! Occasionally I can kinda feel them in there or have a little twinge of pain but I feel so good and so confident about myself that it is such a minor complaint after going through it. I absolutely love them and am very happy with the size and profile. I had 1 week pictures but I can't get them to upload, I think because I cropped them and it changed the size of the image but not sure. Hopefully these one's upload though they're not the best (I took them myself) this site isn't the most user friendly.

I have zero pain these days. I can feel them move a tiny bit if I flex my pec muscles but my tiny natural boobs did too so it's not a big deal. I'm extremely happy with the moderate profile, it gives me great side boob and plenty everywhere else. I love how round they are and they don't stick way out in front. I'm attaching pictures (if it will work for me) but they're not the best. I'll have my husband take some soon so they look better. They are much squishier then they were and even nice and bouncy. I am very happy with Dr. Mars and she did an amazing job! I never really had that terrible frankenboob look that I was expecting and I'm not sure if that was because of her skills or just my body, either way I couldn't be happier.
