Sitting here in a recliner typing this up in hopes it helps others the way RealSelf helped me. I've wanted a BA a long time and finally have the means and support around me to go for it.
Surgery was this morning at 11:45. I got to the hospital around 9:30 and was sent back right way to start pre op stuff and get an IV in. I hate hate hate needles and, while not pleasant, the nurse Heather did a seamless job getting mine in. An expert. I sat around with my Husband in the hospital bed for another 1 & 45 minutes for Dr. Gurley to finish the appointment before mine. I do very much like Dr. Gurley - she knows what she's talking about but wants to know what my ides and preferences are and she explains how she's going to do what she can to get that done. I have an uneven sternum (who knew) which causes my left breast to project a bit more than my right and appear bigger/ a bit fuller. I haven't unwrapped my boobs yet and didn't think to ask if she went with the same size or different (which was an option) so I'll find out at my post op Monday. So far...lots and lots of pressure. My sternum pressure/ pain is the worst while I lie in this recliner but when I get up to move around a few minutes every hour the girls are definitely making sure I know they're not pleased with me.

Starting this out like the majority of women here. Ever since I was. 18 and was informed my mother had implants I've wanted them. I don't hate what I have my any means but I'd love to just have more to them to help balance out my frame and appear a but more feminine. I'm athletic and have wide shoulders so I can be a bit boxy looking. I have a wonderful husband who, although says he loves everything about me the way it is, has been extremely supportive and that support along with support from a few good friends has made things easier.

Just adding a post op pic. This surgical bra is actually pretty comfortable... so far. Maybe that’s the meds talking. I was given two bras (a night time and day time) to wear until advised otherwise and I can shower in the morning. Received a call from the Dr.s office for Jessica who is very sweet and just reminded me of what I need to be doing and to drink plenty of water/eat food and use my breathing apparatus to get in deep breaths. She also gave me Dr. Gurlys cell number. I’m doing ok on just some Valium and Extra Strength Tylenol so I hope that continues so I don’t have to take their Percocet. Getting late here so fingers crossed the first night goes smoothly!
