WORTH IT$6,000
Yay it's been 6 weeks since my BA. Some days I feel good about them, other days not so much. But all in all I am happy. & I love the way they look with clothes. This is my VS 34D bra (which doesn't fit as snug as it use to) with the straps cross crossed in the back to give then a better lift. LOVE!

So I took some pictures of what I was complaining about the other day. Lol. I'm not even sure if they look like they fall lateral or if I need to stop over-analyzing my boobs while I'm PMSing. Anywho! And of course here's a picture in the blue background of me mashing them in & what I wish they looked like all the time! Then we have the cheetah bathing suit I got from VS. This was the second time I got into the VS dressing room to a dead phone! So no pictures of my boobs in cute bras, again. Oh yea and my hand or arm is usually under that boob bc I'm covering a tattoo!!

I think you look great and that leopard print bathing suit is to die for! You look fantastic in it!
September 5, 2014
Thank you so much MomofTwo! I managed to get out of the funk I was in a couple days ago. I think that leopard bathing suit helped! Hehe.

I like the updated pics. I don't think they look too lateral. I think they look real. I have seen some pics that I don't want to look like and the implants appeared to be too close to the midline. Honestly, your pics look a lot like the wish boobs you posted on July 1st.
September 6, 2014
Aw thank you girl that makes me feel so much better. I think that's the thing, I was expecting more of a ball like look and instead I got a look that almost looks like I was completely born with these. I guess I can't complain about looking too natural, that would be silly! Have you set a date or chosen a PS yet? Looking forward to following your journey!

I had my pre-op & labs done yesterday. Yipee!! My ps said to print out my wish boobs and they would hang them in the OR so that he would have an idea of what I was looking to achieve. I was unsure if I should go with 275 or 300 and he said to stay at the upper limit of my comfort level. 325 was definitely outside of my comfort level, so we are going with 300cc. I did mention my concern about rippling so we are going with a 250 implant filled to 300. I'm very excited and can't wait until Friday!
September 9, 2014
Yaaay congrats!!! Yes definitely go with the 300cc over the 275cc. Maybe even 315cc. Hehe. Jk go with what your comfy with, I would hate for you to listen to me and think you went too big. That is a very goof idea with the 250 filled to 300cc, because I hate my 280cc filled to 280cc. It feels so...empty, with palpable ripples :( compared to the 280cc filled to 310cc. I will always regret not specifying not to go below 300cc on the fill when fixing the asymmetry!!

Hey hot mama! Yours are the most natural I've seen. I'm really hoping mine will drop like yours! So please don't feel unattractive because you are HOT! Your abs are tight too! :)
September 6, 2014
Aaaaaaw thank you alwaysknew. Haha trying to get back into those sit up! You are looking pretty smokin yourself omg I can't wait to see how they look when your all dropped and fluffed!! *kisses*
September 6, 2014
You look great! They also look really natural. I think they look beautiful!
September 6, 2014
Thank you teenytiny!! I'm feeling a little better about them again. A breakdown was due I guess, haha, I've gotten so busy with work etc I hadn't paid much attention to them for days/weeks!! Maybe I should keep it that way. LOL.
September 6, 2014
You seriously look amazing. Very symmetrical and natural looking! They're a great fit for your toned, lean figure.

Feeling unattractive with my shirt off
About_Time_September 2, 2014
Have I mentioned how much a hate my boobs without clothes on? They fall somewhat lateral and I'm not sure whether to blame my ps or my anatomy. They are so ugly when I lay down because they fall completely in my armpits, with zero fullness left on my chest. I would absolutely consider a revision because of this, but since my husband is the one who has to look at them shirtless and does not want me to spend anymore time and money on them, I guess I won't. Thank God they look good in clothes in a bra so I can't get completely down about them. Is there anyway to fix lateral boobs other than a revision? Massages? I guess I can ask Google & the doctors on here as well.

Mine do the same thing!!!! I asked the nurse at my PS's office last week if mine fell properly when I laid down & she said they were fine. But honestly, I feel as if they fall into my armpits too when I lay on my back. I feel like they need to be strapped in & they aren't even big, lol I guess we are our own worst critics. But I seriously know what you mean regarding fullness & anatomy!
September 2, 2014
Right!! Same here! I can't believe the massiveness of my side boobs especially laying down, it's just an awkward feeling to have them fully fall in my armpits. So the falling in armpits is normal? I want mine front and center at all times dammit! Lol. Thank goodness I can pull them in to get some pretty perky boobs in bras and bathing suit tops. I'm kinda bummin' because I'm sad if they don't look attractive for my hubby. But of course he'll never say. & your so right, totally our own worst critics.
September 2, 2014
Well I think yours look good! Mine are far apart too & I have a gap. Guess it's just my anatomy. If I ever go for a revision I'm going to ask about MOD+. I wish I had the center fullness too. Next time that you post an update, post a picture of your boobs laying down. I wish mine stood straight up & didn't fall either, lol but as all the doctors have said on here in regards to that...natural breasts fall out to the sides too. :(
September 2, 2014
I read some PS here refer to it as caused by too much lateral dissection. During revision surgery, they can sew up the sides and tighten the pockets, and it will prevent the breast from falling to the sides... I have the shaped implants, and they are always perky even lying down. I like it, but not everyone does. Your results are very beautiful though. Would love to see updated pics!
September 2, 2014
Oh really thanks stilldreaming! That is good to know, bc if it is the pocket (even if I don't get a revision) I would like to know that when I get them redone in 10-15 years they can fix it so they won't be so lateral again! I'll post more updated photos tomorrow! And if I get ballsy I'll stop squishing them closer with my arms. Lol.
September 2, 2014
I have heard of that as well stilldreaming! I guess I don't want to get that done unless I definitely go bigger. You look great! I wish mine laid like that. I also do massages to bring them in closer...basically pushing them towards my cleavage. It's a massaging technique via my doctor.
September 3, 2014
It is normal for smooth implants to fall to the side because they're not attached to anything so gravity will pul them as they would your natural breasts. Idt however it is normal for them to be in your armpits. That could mean the pocket was made too big, to far laterally or to wide for you. But if falling into your armpits is an exaggeration then disregard.
September 3, 2014
Also if you want some that art going to move then textured would be the best choice.
September 5, 2014
Okay thank you for the info WorkinProgress! I really do feel like they are half way in my armpits when I lay down. But when I am upright they don't look awkwardly lateral. But yea maybe this is just the way my anatomy looks with boobs. hehe.
September 2, 2014
I love how yours turned out! Also, I wouldn't be too concerned about them falling to the side when you lay down (I think that's normal). Mine stick straight up like torpedoes and look crazy weird! Haha. You look great girl! Keep me posted on how your doing :)
September 2, 2014
Thank you fitnessgal, I guess the torpedoes were what I was expecting! We need a happy medium, between armpit boobs and torpedoes when lying down. Haha. I'll keep you posted, I think I'll hold a photo shoot in my dressing room at Victoria Secret tomorrow, to perk myself up ;)) *hugs*
September 2, 2014
Yep mine do the same thing if you look on my profile. To be fair...most natural boobs fall out to the side but because my pockets were over dissected laterally I really only feel comfortable with a sports bra on at night as it keeps them on my chest and stops them from pulling and falling sideways...it feels weird sleeping naked on my back.. it just pulls on them. They end up in my armpits. When and if I get my revision with dr.revis he will do an internal bra on me. It gives me permanent sutures to close in my gap and the side displacement. Normal sutures will just dissolve and loosen again. I think its the only way for me. My doc here in Aust says he can't do it. . REVIS has promised me a cleavage. . Therefore I'm saving up lol!!
September 3, 2014
Yep that is how I feel, they just feel pulled on when I lay down, and they aren't even big implants! Wow really good luck with that!! Keep me updated on how the planning of that goes!

Hey there Mommy_Of_Twoo
You look Gorgeous :) and As I have seen and read obsessivly on pics and what to do if your not getting cleavage like you wish , are you using that strap band at the top of your boobies they help pull them together as time goes ? Talk to your ps about it k , but those bikin's at target you're Rocking them out Fabulously :) Try and stay positive hun , and you are only 2 months post op so give yourself some more time , I'd stay in soft cup sports bras and do that bandage at the top at night , and check on massageing them with your ps too k :) May God Always Bless you and happy healing :) thanku for your courage to share your journey with all of us ! And one day I'll hope to be on here sharing mine aswell :) take care sweety :)
September 4, 2014
Thank you so much for the encouragement jojorene! I will ask my doctor about that! I have an ace bandage here at home, I wonder if he can tell me how to work that to bring them together. Thank you for the advice! Have you scheduled any consultations?
September 4, 2014
Hey there Mommy_Of_Twoo :) happy to hear from ya :) you're very welcomed uhm on the ace bandage from what I seen , You start wrapping it at your arm pit to a little bit under your collar bone then continue wrapping uder the other arm pit around to your back then back to you front , but you can purchase velcrow to attach it better , it just adheases to the ace bandage / pull the clear strip and it'll stick to the ace bandage k :) hope it works !!!! As far as me no , no consultation for a while I don't have the $ , just dreaming for now lol , hope to share my journey one day with all of you wonderful people on here :) Well May God Always Bless you n Family and take care , keep us up on how you are doing , our prayers are with you :) Amen !
