So I'm a 31 year old mum of 4 and have breast fed them all. I actually gained volume after feeding my 3rd baby, but after my 4th I lost it all again :-( I was up to a very very full C or even D cup while I was feeding, and now I don't fill up a C cup, so I'm presuming I'm a B (just wearing C's cos I can't find bras that feel and fit right so I'm not wasting my money buying new ones). I'm very self conscious about the floppiness off them, I don't like to bend over as they seem to lose and boob-like shape and just... well I can't even explain it. They look yuk.

I've booked in with my PS who did my recent tummy tuck. He's a man of few words, but is apparantly excellent at what he does. He knows what I want and what I don't want so I feel pretty confident that he can help me achieve what I want, which is nice natural looking boobs with a bit of upper pole fullness which I'm currently lacking. I had my photos taken, got measured for a bra and played with sizes. I've gone for 310cc - 350cc, but prepared to go higher if that's what is needed.

He has chosen to go over the muscle, the reason for this is because I have a fair amount of droop and if he was to put it under the muscle, my breast tissue will apparantly hang off the implant. They will be inserted at the fold line.

I haven't told anyone about this, nor am I going to, it's no ones business but mine and my husband who only talks about boobs these days!

So that's where I am at the moment. I have to go in and pay for it next week. I'm getting my nose done at the same time so I'm not looking forward to the recovery!

I will post some before pics if I can work up the courage

Yaaaay for boobies. I had a lot of droop myself, so I understand not wanting to post pics. For me posting the pics turned out to be a good thing. It helped confirm I was making the right decision. Now when I look at my pre op pics, I can't believe I waited so long. I'm tempted to take them down, but I won't because I know it was really hard for me to find pre op boobies that looked like mine. I was borderline lift. In fact one at a prior consult I was told I had to get a lift OR go over the muscle with a large implant. I went to another consult, and so glad I did. Not only was the advice different but the atmosphere. Good luck with your surgery. Feel free to ask questions and keep posting. As you already know, your story means so much to all the gals waiting.

Thank you, I've just read your story, you're looking great and sound so happy! I asked for a lift, but he said I would be right with just the implants and if I needed it, a lift later on down the track, but he still wants to go over the muscle. I'm ok with that beause recovery is easier and as i'm getting rhinoplasty aswell, i need all te help i can get, but i am worried about mammograms as breast cancer runs in my family. I'm sort of sick of thinking about it all to be honest. It's making me feel sick. I'm putting all my trust in my surgeon and hope like mad woman that its all going to be ok!

Today I went to the bank and this afternoon we are going in to pay the deposit and pick up my PO bra.

Speaking of bras, I went shopping today. I looked at bathers and bras. There's so much nice stuff out there at the moment, I wish I knew what size to get! Won't be long and I'll be able to go proper bra shopping :-D eeeek! I did buy some new clothes though (yay!)

Anaesthetist

MTBN
I've just paid my anaesthetist fee, was quite a bit lower than I expected! Now I've got more to spend on bras when I'm allowed to. Now I just need to fill out my health questionnaire and sign the consent form and I'm good to go. I paid my deposit last night and picked up my bra... I haven't taken it out of the box yet... I feel if I take it out of the box, it makes it all real :-/
