Mother of three finally deciding to take the plunge. I have always had a small chest 34 except when pregnant and breast-feeding they were a double D , I swore I would never stop breast-feeding just to keep those babies. I'm tired of padded bras gapping bathing suits and not feeling proportioned. My husband keeps trying to reassure me that it's not necessary he loves me the way IM but it has nothing to do with that it's how I feel and how I have always felt. I just want to fit in a bra fill out my bathing suit and look great in my shirts, and who does not want a little cleavage. I took the step and I saw two doctors they were both great but the second dr was just amazing he answered every question I think he would've sat there all day talking to me and reassuring me he answered a question that I was going to ask him even before I set it that reassured me. I'm a gym rat I'm there five days a week so not being able to get to get my workouts in will drive me crazy. after a week 1/2 after ACL replacement surgery I was back in the gym just trying to do things that didn't involve my knee . I was set on Saline under the muscle but after talking with my doctor he reassured me that silicone was the better way to go. I am 5 foot 4 1/2 , 123 lbs , my doctor recommended between 391-421 cc which he said would be proportionate to my body. Now that this is really happening I'm starting to get a little nervous. Am I making the right choice with silicone?

Call from the pre-OP nurse
So yesterday I got the call from my pre-op nurse going over all the questions and information and the do and do not before surgery. This phone call made it real I can't believe I am finally doing this.15 days to go .I bought A comfortable sleeping bra that hooks in the front from Amazon for 10 bucks I guess fashion is not going to be a factor at this point. I have my fiber and laxatives which is something that is a necessity after my knee surgery from all the anesthesia I was not able to go to the bathroom for five days so I am not going to take that chance again.

Super nervous but super excited once in a while still have doubts and go back-and-forth but I think it's just my nerves. Going with the 421 under the muscle still hoping silicone is the way to go

Starting to have doubts
I'm not sure if I'm just getting nervous that this is actually happening, or the fact that in 10 years or so I may have to do it all over again.. I was reading a lot of blogs from Women who had their implants taken out. It's kind of scary do I really want to do this everybody on this site is just having them done so everyone is excited about it I would love to talk to people of had them for 10+ years is it worth it?

That's so crazy because I caught myself earlier today looking at explants and why certain women wanted them..?!?!! I think maybe we can chalk it up to pre-op jitters lol but it never hurts to do the extra research about the "other" side I guess!

That's so funny you said that maybe I'm just getting a little nervous I don't now I wanted to do this forever and now it's really happening. I have been doing so much research I just want to make sure that they are safe, everyone seems to be going with silicone even both my consult doctors agreed. I just hope and pray I am making the right decision. It's scary to think that in 10+ years I may have to do this all over again or have them taken out and be where I am now that's the part that scares me.

Congrats on your your upcoming surgey. I'm only 4 1/2 mo out but very happy with my decision. I do have friends who have had them for years, as long as 12+ and happy with their results still. Good luck to you. Look forward to seeing your results.

My sister has had saline implants for 9 years and they are still rockin' beautiful!!

For what it's worth, I had them put in, out, and new ones go back in again March 5. I really did not like the saline implants I got in 2001 and had them removed after 7 years. Getting silicone and can't wait. Silicone wasn't an option in 2001. I'm 47 now, supportive husband the whole time. One more pre op appointment and then the big day. Still trying to choose a size good for me (5'5", 108 lbs) that looks natural but very much looking forward to doing this again. Good luck!
