30 Years Old, 1 Kid......36H down to 36D

I am so happy to be writing this review as I have been lurking on RealSelf for a while now. I am scheduled to have my surgery in a week!!! I have been wanting this for so long and it's finally about to happen. No more physical therapy 3x a week, pain meds, or heat therapy. I will upload before pictures prior to my surgery! XOXO

I am both excited and nervous at the same time! I claim to be a 36G but I don't actually fit into my bra like I'm supposed to. I'm sure that I am an H but I absolutely refuse to buy a bra bigger than a G! I guess I'm in a denial! LOL Good thing this surgery is almost here. My back has been hurting all day yesterday and last night. This surgery can't come fast enough. I've heeded my doctor's orders and stayed away from NSAIDs. I can't wait to have my C/D cup!

It's 2am and I can barely sleep!! It feels like I've been hit by a Mack Truck! I have to take two pain pills to make the pain go away so I'm being very careful of when I use them. Right now I have chosen to use them during the day only. My surgery went really well. Dr. Ambercrombie, my anthesiologists, was very thorough and super nice. You can tell that she loves her job and very good at what she does. She called me the night prior to surgery and we discussed my allergies and family history. My surgery was scheduled for 7:30AM and I had to be at the hospital until 6:30AM. I arrived at 6:19AM and within minutes was already being prepped for surgery. The first thing that they did was a pregnancy test and changed clothes. Then my nurse put in my IV. I have very small veins which she noted. She took her time and found the right one and only stuck me ONCE! She (I forgot her name) is obviously very skilled at her job as well because very few people stick my small veins on the first try! Dr. Ewart came in and marked me for surgery. I was shocked that he used measuring tape as I haven't seen that when watching TV shows (I.e. Atlanta Plastic). He took his time and I can tell that he is passionate about his craft. I was nervous when I arrived but the staff's professionalism and excellent services skills quelled my nerves. 15 minutes later I walked into the operating room where Natalie (Dr. Ewart's Nurse whom I was wondering about was) along with Dr. Ambercrombie and my intake Nurse. Dr. Ambercrombie asked me some additional questions and the next thing I remember is waking up feeling like a Mack Truck hit me and was laying across my chest. My intake nurse was by my side the whole time! She was the first person I saw when I woke up! She asked about my pain level and I told her. She administered more medicine. Dr Ewart came to check on me and then I was being wheeled to my car where my best friend was waiting to take me home. The drive was an hour and 20 minutes back and the pain was bearable until I got about 20 minutes away. I called APS where Trudy (She is super sweet by the way) answered. I asked if I could get a stronger prescription as the Percocet that was prescribed did not seem strong enough. I had taken 1 right before leaving the hospital and it only too the edge off for an hour. She told me that Dr. Ewart does not prescribe anything stronger than Percocet and that it was ok for me to take 1 more. I was bummed but I trust Dr. Ewart. The 2 at a time seems to work. So far I am pleased with the level of service I received from APS. Both my mom (who was waiting for her 30 year old baby when I got home) and my best friend said they can see a difference with the clothing I had on. I will upload a photo of me in the bandages tomorrow. Oh and the best part is that I do not have drains!
