Over 7 months have passed and I am overjoyed with my boobies. I mean, seriously, it was the best decision. Ever. They’re continuing to soften up although it’s a very slow process. I marvel at them every day but I’m also so used to them now that I forget they weren’t there before. I had a 6 month checkup and Dr. Bennett gave me an anti-inflammatory injection into the scar on my right breast since it was slightly raised. (I can’t remember exactly what it was named). But ever since, the scar has softened up and improved quite a bit.
I’m taking the opportunity this summer to wear all the halters and tube tops and low back dresses I was never able to wear before and I’m having the time of my life doing so! In the beginning I was more self conscious about my breasts looking “fake” but now I just love them so much, it doesn’t really matter what anyone else thinks of them.
I live most of my days in comfy sports bras (Lululemon ‘like a cloud longline’ bra is my absolute favorite!) although there’s been quite a few times I just slapped a pair of pasties on and called it a day. (Or sometimes not even pasties and then it’s just nip tips all day hahaha) I will occasionally wear a push-up bra and then I really feel va-va-voom! I’ve found that when I’m measured for a bra I measure between 32D/DD but when I actually try the bras on I’m more of a 32C. It just depends on the bra. For non-cup sizes a medium fits pretty well but im still able to squeeze into my old XS bras. It sort of just depends on the bra and how much support it has.
This may sound like a horrible thing to say but there were times in the past when I really felt resentment towards having children because of what happened to my breasts as a result. It’s funny how birthing and breastfeeding a child is one of the greatest gifts of being a woman and yet at the same time it can rob you of what makes you genuinely FEEL and LOOK like the amazing woman you believe yourself to be. I hope that doesn’t offend anyone. It’s just how I personally processed the experience. I had days when I would stand in front of the mirror and forced myself to look at my breasts and tried to love them for what they were. I thanked them for producing the nutrients my babies needed. I bought the prettiest little bralettes I could find and did my best to accept them. Could I have made it through life without implants? Sure, I think so. But now, after having implants, would I go back to my shriveled skin sacks ????? NO WAY! Lol! I’m so much happier with my body and have so much more confidence- it has improved many of my relationships- including between my children and me. Maybe that sounds strange but I’ll take it! My hubby loves that I have my old confidence back and I’m not always trying to hide myself. Deciding to get a breast augmentation is not solely limited to the physical aspect of it all. It’s so much more than that. Overall, I’m very pleased with my decision and would do it all over again!

I forgot to post some other pics

Holy cow! It’s been 4 months already?! How the time flies. I browsed this site for so long before getting my surgery and was so frustrated with posts that never went past a 6 week update. Now I’m one of those people lol!
I’d say around week 6 I was feeling pretty much back to my normal self. I’ve been able to get back into my normal exercise routine minus Pull-ups/push-ups, etc. I’d feel an occasional tightness in my right side but that’s subsided for the most part.
The last time I posted, my left side was dropping faster than my right, however now my right side is nice and fluffy and my left is being stubborn. My left side is not fully dropping into the pocket and I have what my doctor referred to as a “flattened” scar. It gives my breast somewhat of an angular shape. It’s more noticeable when I’m cold or when I’ve just worked out. I was told to continue massaging the scar with an out and downward motion to try and get the implant to settle into that pocket. Maybe the massage is helping but it’s still pretty noticeable. She said she can do a minor repair if it hasn’t settled into place at the 6 month mark. I’m not sure if I’ll go through with that or not since it’s really only noticeable when I’m naked. Besides, 6 months takes me right into the summer and I don’t want the down time. I want to show my boobies off all summer long! What do you ladies think? Would it be worth having to have another procedure albeit minor, to fix this flattened scar?
At 4 months and some change now, I’ve had some time to reflect on size choice, etc. I think if I were to do it all over again, I’d go with slightly more ccs and a moderate profile. Maybe like around 300/350 ccs. I’m pretty happy with my current size but going slightly larger wouldn’t have been a bad thing. I find the moderate profile more natural. My HPs are pretty darn perky and they’re obviously implants in certain types of bathing suits. That being said, most people are surprised when I tell them I got implants since the current size is pretty natural looking on my frame (at least I like to think so). I can still fit into all of my clothes, I just fill out the tops the way I should! Sometimes I think if I had gotten moderate profile I would have more cleavage than I do right now. All the doctors I had consultations with had told me I have a wide gap between my breasts and that anatomically it would be difficult to create cleavage. Some bras give me more cleavage but it’s kind of a stretch pushing them together enough if that makes any sense.
I was going through a bunch of pictures and I found that something dramatic happens between month 3 and 4. My breasts are noticeably softer and have dropped quite a bit compared to last month. They really feel like a part of my body now and no longer feel foreign. Although they’re softer, they’re still pretty firm…I’m hoping they’ll soften up more within the next few months. As much as we hate to hear it, it really does take MONTHS to see the final result. They change dramatically but very slowly. I’ve also noticed that I have “good boob” days and “bad boob” days. Colder weather contracts the muscles more, making my implants feel and look firmer. Warmer weather makes everything look and feel more natural.
So…are my boobies perfect? No. Are they exactly how I imagined they’d be? No. Do I love them? Yes. I’m able to wear all the shirts, dresses, and bathing suits I want. The woman I am on the inside now matches the woman I am on the outside! I’ve experienced an incredible boost in confidence- from running errands at the grocery store, dressing up and going out with my girlfriends, to being in bed with my hubby. Just as many other real self ladies have expressed, my only regret is not doing it sooner!
Someone remind me to post an update if I haven’t already by month 6 lol!
