Ah! My surgery date is finally set for a little more than two months down the road. Personally, I dont feel pregnancy took a toll on my breasts... Nursing those babies on the other hand... That did the damage. Beings I am traveling quite far for the procedure, the amount of time I have to make a size decision will be short. I want to look natural but be big enough for them to be fun!! Ive never felt comfortable in a swim suit. This is really exciting for both my husband and I. At this point I joined realself in order to help get an idea of what Im looking for prior to my consultation. Surgery will be the day after. The method im planning on going w is TUBA. The doctor I've chosen has done many of them and I liked him over the phone. I really hate the distance thing. When picking a doctor it would be preferable to meet prior face to face. Nevertheless, Im feeling quite optimistic.

Considerations
sleepysisterApril 14, 2015
Desires/concerns:
I do NOT want a large gap for my cleavage but have no idea how this is accomplished. Does it depend on each persons body and the size of implants?
I really want my breasts to be proportionate w my booty. The thoughht of curves makes happy. Yay
When women say they want their clothes to fit better Im always a bit confused. Personally I dont find it difficult to find clothing that fits appropriately. But Im concerned about finding it after. I imagine in some pieces I will go up a size or possibly two. What concerns me is it will be long or loose in my waist/arms in doing so. Through this I hope to get more versatility in my wardrobe vs restrictions. As a mother of four I dont like to show off cleavage and like to dress cute but conservative. I hope this doesnt become a challenge.

What type of implant are you planning on getting and why may i ask are you traveling so far?

I really want to have the procedure via the trans umbilical style. No one in the area I live has the proper experience to do the surgery w that method. The only type of implant allowed w TUBA is saline. My doctor said it looked like I have some loss of tissue but that there is still enough for it to be a good option for me. My right breast is (very slightly) smaller than my left. This should b able to b evened out w saline as well. I like that saline is a more natural option as well. I strongly considered going to dr Kim from California as well. But my family will be in Ohio for the summer. We will take a couple weeks to visit either gulfshores AL or Destin FL. On the way back up we will stop in Atlanta for the procedure. Had i not felt comfortable w DR Pound I would have looked further into Kansas City (i could have went here on the way to OH), Seattle (i have family that lives here), Miami, Vegas or California (cheap plane tkts to these destinations from ND) to find a doctor who does TUBA regularly. From my understanding there are qualified doctors in those areas and they are the most convenient places for me to travel from where I live. There were a number of other cities that were also listed for qualified DRs but quite fewer than any other method for placement (who also have the proper credentials) from what I have found. Beings i have scars from csections the last thing i really want is another visable scar. W that said i would go w a noticable scar over a bad BA. W that said i helieve this route is the best option for me to get what I want.

I might add Dr Pound's office seemed to have a southern hospitality attitude that I appreciated. When I called other offices inquiring I was put off by being referred to websites (which I had already viewed) bc the other offices didnt seem to want to have a discussion. It was a turn off that ultimately cost them the sale. Dr Pound has been practicing the TUBA method for over 20 years and also used to work w his father who was a PS. The biggest drawback to his office is that the documents were not able to be emailed vs mailed. I'd rather get them electronically (even though there are many.) Overall my expectations have been met thus far and Im somewhat picky according to my husband :)

One thing I felt helpful when deciding on implants was the width of the implant and projection. I went with silicone but I imagine you can find a chart for saline online. Your cleavage will depend on how far apart your breasts are to begin with. The Dr will center the implants with your nipple. So if your breasts are far apart (like mine) an implant can't change that unless the width is large...

That is very helpful info. I will start searching. Thank you very much for the input
