Hello RealSelf world! Since I've found myself visiting this site more as I move from the planning to the scheduling stage of my breast augmentation, I thought it might be time to share a little of my story. Also - and maybe it's just me - but I haven't found a ton of profiles of women around my age, small frame, who HAVE had kiddos. So here I am.I've been pregnant 9 times. I know. I'll just be over here while that news settles on ya. Okay, most of the shock gone? Cool. I've breastfed 7 children for at least 9 months each. My pre-pregnancy bra was 32B but now I'm 32AA. I'm currently in the best shape of my life and it feels like time to assist my boobs in becoming what they can't on their own. I've chosen a doctor (who is great) and was hyping up for my pre-op appointment on April 6 whennnnnnn (dramatic pause) COVID 19 happened. It looks like my surgery will be rescheduled for May/June, but we don't have a definite date yet.In the meantime, I'm checking out profiles here and doing my own research. Specifically, I find myself debating what size implant would be best for me. That's one of the things my doc assesses at the pre-op, so having it cancelled kinda sucks. But the info here has been super helpful!I'll post some pics so you can see what I've got to work with here... ummm not much lol

Exiting! My surgery is 6/17 and I'm not sure it's happening either because of Corona :( You are in great shape! What size were you thinking? With your frame if it was me I'd shoot for a nice C! I've got 4 kids and it's a handful, I can't imagine 7! Although I'd love to adopt 2 one day. Kids are the best xo

We are in the same boat!! In more ways than one haha .. Yes, I'm thinking definitely C having a hard time knowing how to translate that into cc's with my small frame but I suppose that's what the pre-op sizing is all about. Thanks for commenting!

Now that my state is slowly releasing some of the covid restrictions, my PS office called to reschedule. This I expected. What blew my mind was that they had an opening so soon! My surgery is May 18 - twelve days from today! Spending my remaining days planning for travel to and from the surgicenter (I live an hour away) as well as researching what size implants would be best. So far I am looking at Mentor plus (which I'm told means high profile, right?), around 350 cc range, submuscular. Of course this will be finalized by the PS at the pre-op appointment but it feels good to have something definite on the calendar.
