I'm a mother of 6 beautiful children & have devoted my entire life to making sure that they have everything that they wanted & needed. Now that they are older, started their own families & lives. It's time for me to refresh mine. I have wanted to enhance my body for years. Unfortunately the priority wasn't me...NOW IT IS....lol

I have done my research. Websites, videoes, consultation & testimonies... I picked a PS, determined a date & now I wait....tic toc

Tomorrow I meet with the my PS surgeoon for a mommy make-over. I initially had consultations about just a breast augmentation. Now, I want it all...I also go get my CBS done in the AM. Excited about what she will say & what she can do...

Had my cbc today & another consultation to discuss a mommy make over instead of guest augmentation. I was excited as we worked out the financials, my goals & got all my questions answered. Everything was great until I sat with the coordinator who said we needed to push the date from Nov 26 to Dec 13...UGH total disappointment. Apparantly combining the procedures increases the time & risk so we have to move to the hospital...I know makes perfect sense, just disappointed...While waiting for the coordinator to coordinate, my BF came in...To my surprise. I explained the details & he was like whats the problem. You will still get what you want, just at a later time... such a guy...We paid for the procedures & asked to be called if there are any cancellations...fingers crossed. Tomorrow I have to fill my prescription for iron...I was told to start eating more vegetables, drink plenty of water & start to plan for my recovery period. BF first week, Mom 2nd week, Sister 3rd week & Teenagers all the weeks. This should be fun...lol My BF said he will get me 2 recliners, he is just dying to decorate my living room again & the recliners will give him the "in"...I will make sure the fridge is stocked, clothes are washed & house is clean before so that there is less for my helpers to do. Dr. told me I should take 4weeks off from work...No problem, this is around Xmas & New Years, what a perfect vacation.....excited, excited, excited....What else do I need to do? Any tips on must have items? any help would be fantastic....

Yay! I'm so glad you were able to get a date set! I'm sorry it's not the date you wanted, but how great you will be able to get both your breast and tummy done together. I am sure you will be so happy. I know how badly you want to put those gorgeous pictures up, so let me know how I can help. What is the problem you are having?

Date is set, scheduled the time off & now I wait... I have to get my CBC done again, hopefully the nurse is a little more experienced then the first nurse who took me blood...lol I was looking at recliners & started cleaning the house. I'm early I know..I just want to touch up when my date is close & do the major cleaning now...You be surprised about how the time flys & you run out of time...

After reading all the reviews, I noticed that the majority of women are getting silicone. I opted for saline, safe then sorry...I'm curious as to the decision for silicone..Hopefully people can share
