I'm 23 yrs. old and have 3 boys. 7,3 and 1. I always wanted boobs for as long as I can remember. I was a 32 A/AA. After my last son, my boobs got a smidge bigger, but not much. I've been with my fiance since I was 15. Finally in Nov. he proposed to me in front of all our friends. We set the date for Sept. 6, 2014. I knew that I needed boobs to wear with my dress. So I scrambled around thinking of what to do. I thought the perfect time was around Christmas week. My fiance has off for 2 weeks and that way he can help watch the kids and my oldest doesn't have school. Now the problem was, where am I going to get the money. One day, my soon to be MIL called me after I had a dinner date saying she hit the jackpot at the casino. That her and my soon to be FIL will split the cost of my BA. I was so excited. I scheduled a consultation right away and set the date. I came to the office with knowing what I wanted. I came out with a whole different view. First thing I did was have a consultation with Dr.Solomon. At first, he's very arrogant and might seem rude. But its only because it's for your best interest. He asked me first, how old is my baby and who will take care of him since I can't lift for over 1 month. Then he said since I dont take birth control. The the day of the procedure if I'm pregnant, he's going to put my implants in a box and send them home with me. Afterwards, we went into the exam room. I told him I was worried about the gap and the fake look. After he did my measurements he said he has 2 options. He told me my nipples stick up a little higher than average. First option is theres the implant where its wider and you wont have a gap, but my nipples would stick straight up and he doesn't like that. Second option is that he can do the implant that sticks out more, but I'll have a slight gap. However, my nipples stay the same and he thinks thats the best choice. I told him do whats best because hes the expert. Next, we went into the room with all the implants. He chose 3 implants which he thought is good for my size. I'm 5'1 - 118 lbs. I ended up going with 350 cc. I originally picked Saline, but after feeling silicone I couldnt make up my mind. I put my deposit down and left stressing if my implant choice was too big or if I wanted to do silicone or saline. My fiance said if I do silicone he'll put up the 1k for me and thats my christmas gift. I decided to ask a good amount of friends that went to Dr. Solomon and I had both opinions on Silicone and Saline and I was still stuck.
Dec.12 was pre-op day. I finally made my decision to go with Saline. I got remeasured and made sure the implant size so he could order. He gave me my prescriptions and I was off to get them done the next week. The day of, I washed my body with Hibiclens which is what surgeons use to wash their arms and hands before surgery to reduce bacteria. I put the nausea patch behind my ears. I arrived at 12:30. I told my fiance to take my oldest son to my sisters house for the weekend plus I didnt want him waiting for a few hours. They gave me a pregnancy test hooked up up to the IV. I waited for another half an hr and the DR. came in and took measurements and used the marker to draw all over me. They put antibiotics in my IV and waited a little bit until the OR was ready. When it was time the anesthesiologist came and put the medicine in my IV. All I can remember is getting wheeled back and finally getting into the OR. I looked around while the room was spinning. Then I heard, close your eyes. I woke up and I had boobs. I was on the way home and slept.
The pain wasnt bad, I was just very sore. The next morning I could barely move. I needed help to go pee or do anything. I'm not sure why, but the meds made me so tired. I would sleep for 12-13 hrs straight. Wake up for a few mins and go back to sleep for a few more hours. This continued on for over a week. I stopped taking meds on the 2nd day b/c I thought that thats what was causing it. I started to panic. I would have dizzy spells all day long with no meds. I would sit there and the room would spin around. I finally decided to call my dr b/c I thought something was really wrong. He said come in tomorrow and if you're not feeling better call your family doctor. What do you know, a week after that I felt perfect.
My boobs at first were very small. Then they gradually got bigger. Some people will tell you the opposite though. I'm 3.5 weeks post op and they have dropped nice. With NO massage. My dr told me no massaging b/c 20+ years of doing it he sees not links to anything. He also told me to shower the next day & that he doesn't know why some drs. dont recommend NOT showering. You want to be clean so to get rid of bacteria.
