Like most people on here this procedure has been on the wish list for a very long time. I am currently counting down to my surgery date and am very excited. I am 40 years old and a mum of two, I would say I am slim to average build. I am looking at 400cc implants and a lift but will make my final decision at my pre surgery appointment next week. Watch this space.

I have done the rice test, this is the pictures that look like I have boobs.
Testing for size 400cc to try and get some idea how they will look.

Its all systems go at home with only one week to go! Getting very excited and can"t believe it is actually happening... I have paid for everything except the hospital admission and will be having my pre-op appointment in two days. I have been busy grocery shopping, preparing meals and baking birthday cakes! I decided to bake ahead of time as I am making several large cakes and this is tiring at the best of times, anything to keep busy and not have time to worry/stress/panic etc!!!

Just finished visiting my PS and he advised 400cc would be too big for my frame and existing breast tissue, the size chosen is now 370cc mentor high profile silicone placed under the muscle, i will not need a huge lift but nipples will be repositioned! BTW the high profile mentor are equal to moderate profile in other brands. Very excited to now be counting down off to fill my prescriptions!

I am ready to go, will be heading off in only 13 hours, I am first on the list so no time to hang around and have a panic attack! I have cooked, cleaned, filled prescriptions and gone to work as well so an early night for me I am exhausted xx

This was approx. six hours after surgery, I woke up in some pain and was given something to make me go back to sleep! The first night was ok I set my alarm and woke up to take pain meds. A little discomfort today but mostly just feeling stiff, I am actually amazed at how good I am feeling. Just have sweaty boobs from our sub tropical Brisbane weather. Of course I am huge but there is padding under the bandages also. I get bandages off in a few days can't wait to see what is actually under there!!

A great day today, five days post op went to see my PS for the big reveal, I am very happy with the result. I have a blister on my right breast from steristrip rubbing but nothing to cause concern.
I am still very swollen and weeks away from seeing something that is closer to the final result. It was awesome to have a proper shower the second highlight of my day!!! Back to my PS at the end of the week to have steristrips removed.

This is the healed result some years later I still think it was worth it and would do it again
