Growing up, I was borderline anemic
Growing up, I was borderline anemic
That being said, I was a 32AA just about all my life and I wasn't happy about it. Not because of boys or anything like that, but because I had a certain look I liked and clothes I wanted to wear, a style that I knew was for me but made me look 12 and I felt stupid moreso than cute or sexy.
So I told myself in high school, I have family who "kept" their boobs after breastfeeding and if I do, great, and if I don't, then it's time.
I have a wonderful man by my side who couldn't care less if I did this or not. Who loves me for everything I am and has been waiting on me hand and foot while also taking care of our 2 under 2 while I'm resting up in bed. His only concern is that I'm happy, and that I do this safely and remain healthy. He's absolutely the best. "What if I go too big, too small? What if I don't do this or what if I do?" - "babe, you do what makes you happy and I'm not putting in my input because this is your thing and I want you to do a size that makes you happy" - you guys, the best support. I'm so proud I've picked such an incredible man. (about 12 years together).
Sizing, Consultation and Post-op
My doctor couldn't have been more helpful. He gave me a few sizers and we discussed what would be proportionate (since I want to keep natural but I also wanted a "happier" set after breastfeeding two years in a row).
We decided on about 220-240cc of the "gummy bear" implants because those are specifically made for those who have very little tissue (which after these babies was near nothing). Having a certain amount of days between my sizer try ons and surgery, of course I did the crazy thing and went all over the internet and wondered if I should be doing 350 or more... not taking into consideration that I am more petite and small framed. I am 5'2 108lbs. I measure about 26.5" around my ribs and 25" around my waist. We got to surgery day and I told him whatever he decides, I have full trust and faith in what he thinks is best as he already knows what I'm going for, what I hope for, our end goal. I never showed "wish pics" as he really seemed to know exactly what I was looking for just from our discussions. Coming out of surgery, I just couldn't be happier. I am thrilled already and it's only day 2 of recovery. I feel like I'm capable to do more things but I was advised not to, and to keep my arms in and live the trex life for a little longer and it's honestly helping so much more. A lot less of the "extreme workout pain" and I'm just beyond ecstatic with the whole outcome.
