Had larger implants put in 5 years ago & it's the biggest mistake I've made so far. Over the past year I decided that I wanted them removed. I saved up money & was planning on when to remove them. Then I found out I'm pregnant. If I can't have implants removed I am seriously considering not carrying the baby to term. All I want is for them to be removed, general anesthesia, no lift. I'd breast feed & then in the future, whenever able, get a lift. I am willing to fly or drive anywhere. PLEASE HELP
