So I'm 28, have 3 children, 9, 7, and 4 I am married and unhappy with my body. I have always hated how flat my chest is. I'm 5 foot even and about 135lbs, bra size 36 A (which is really hard to find) and anywhere from an 8-10 waist. I tried cavi-lipo a few months back and it made no difference. The girl doing the proceedure told me there was too much extra skin hanging and I needed a tummy tuck. All 3 of my kids were c-sections and I had this layer of skin that would just hang over the c-section scar, it used to gross me out beyond belief. I hated my husband even seeing me naked. So finally go the $ together and decided to go for it. I was scheduled for 11/22.

So the last few days have been rough. The pain from the tummy tuck is min, but the boobs just hurt. the pain, the pressure, it all hurts. I'm pretty unhappy and trying not to be. I've read so many stories and everyone says to wait, but I'm just unhappy. I had planned all along to go with 375cc In the textured shaped silicone. When I woke up from surgery the dr said he had to used 320!!!????!!!! Really??? That's a huge friggen difference. I feel like if I'm gonna pay that much $ for just a tiny difference I could have saved a lot of money and bought padded bras. When I asked the dr he told me those were the only ones that would fit my body and frame? Again, are you kidding, I've seen much smaller women with much larger boobs! He told me to trust him and wait and see once they drop. I feel like they aren't dropping, they are rock hard, etc. My husband says he sees a big difference, I just see disappointment!
I'll post some pre opp pics soon.

You are about the same size as me. I can't wait to see what your results are! Hope your healing is going good.

I can tell you, if you are undecided on size, go bigger. I didn't have a choice in size and I'm very unhappy :(

;( I'm sorry and I hope they fill in a bit better so it is better for you. I'm debating 450-500. So I'm hoping it's not too big on me
Thank you for starting your story on RealSelf! How are you feeling now that you're a few days post-op?
I'm glad you're here, too. You look like you're still early in recovery, riding high and swollen. Please please please try to be patient. I know it's super hard, but you'll be happier if you don't think too much about the results until you're further post op. Hang in there!
