51 and Tired of Wearing Padded Bras - Bozeman, MT

When my 25 year old daughter got implants this past July she could not have had more support from me than she got. While I've always been pretty flat, she was flatter. Within weeks after her surgery her confidence soared. I'm not too concerned with my self confidence, but I'm tired of wearing padded bras. And bathing suits are the worst of all to wear.
I'm a bit nervous about having two foreign bodies implanted, but other than that I'm ready.

This morning, my sweet husband asked me if I was getting nervous about my upcoming surgery, and I couldn't have replied faster than I did. NO! I'm not the slightest bit nervous about the surgery itself. What my thoughts seem to focus on is telling people why I'll be under the radar and home bound for a week. I'm 51 and am imagining the same scorn I got from people when I ended my previous unhappy marriage. As I mentioned earlier, my 25 year old daughter had BA in July, and I remember how defensive I was when people inquired. My step-daughter has already labeled me as superficial, and I think if she knows what I'm up to she'll have some (totally off) confirmation. And I know, I'm doing this for me. I've always felt unfinished, having waited for my buds to develop until I had children. They didn't; even after 3.

This is such a surreal time for me. I'm 51 and about to have BA in the morning. I can't shake the thought that I'm a bit old for this, yet I'm equally grateful that my life of hating my body, and my flat chest is about to change abruptly. Tomorrow. I'll go to sleep tomorrow night not having my protruding ribs be the biggest feature of my whole torso.
On a lighter note, my husband of two years is adorable. He's never cared or commented on my flat chest, but he's excited to bring me shopping for new clothes, lingerie, and bathing suit soon. He lives to make me happy. Fingers crossed and prayers said as I drift off to sleep.
