The anxiety and obsessively researching is growing by the minute. I have surgery scheduled in 3 days. I'm a mom of four and breastfed some, but never really got the hang of it. My boobs have remained perky but have lost some fullness. I've always had an OK rack, but I do have an athletic square shape up top and always wanted to have a more voluptuous top half matching my larger bootie. I've been to several consultations over the years, but always chickened out when it came to scheduling the procedure. Probably because I wasn't confident with previous surgeons. My husband is a butt man and constantly tells me that he loves my body as is, but he is supportive after listening to his sister tell him “it changes the way a girl feels, she's more confident feeling sexier”. I also know he has a thing for boobs too after stumbling on his porn preferences, lol. Either way, I'm doing this for me and my confidence alone. Of course, he does get to benefit from this early Christmas present to me as well. I'm using Dr. Robin Hamlin. I've been to a few different surgeons and have felt most at ease with her. She's sooo down to earth and makes me feel incredibly comfortable. I'm going with round, non-textured silicone under the muscle, but told her to do her magic and determine the size she'll be using, while trying to replicate my wish pics. I've been on RS for a few months now and am so grateful to read all you lovely ladies reviews and advice. Likewise, I love how supportive everyone is here. So, I will do the same by posting my recovery and updates in hopes that it might help another. I'll post before surgery pics when I can share it with hopefully "vavoom!!" after pics.

We have a similar situation! Multiple kids and lost of breast volume. I just had my BA 2 weeks ago. What size are you thinking?

Right now I'm a loose fitting 36C with padding or push-up. I really don't want to go huge. I don't want anybody to even know I'm getting them. I haven't even told anybody, not even my mom, that I'm getting them. I even told my kids "I'm getting a wisdom tooth removed, so mommy may be sleepy all day Friday". I don't like the thought of my sons knowing I'm getting boobs. I want to fill out my bras and clothes without using padded bras. And call it lame or whatever, but I want to climb on top, lights on, with all the confidence in the world, like I did before kids. So I really don't know until TOMORROW!!! I legit told the doc to decide. She has seen my wish pics and is going to try and replicate.

That was me too. 34C with padding but like really no breast. I felt the same way and told the doctor the exact same. I think my exact words were something like" I am a mom and teacher and it can't be obvious." I asked for a moderate profile because I knew I didn't want the upper fullness of the high profile. Not the look I was going for! I feel you on the confidence thing too. It's not silly. I documented a bit about recovery if you want to check it out. I have a 2 year old and 6 year old. Is there someone there to help you the first week? Good luck tomorrow! I am sure you'll be great.

Thank you. And I too want low to moderate profile. I love the natural look with some slope. My hubs is taking the first 3 days off then I'll be counting on myself and the kids to help out. My oldest is 13 and youngest is 4. Sooo it shouldn't be terrible (fingers are literally crossed). And, Yessss I'm profile stalking you now. I feel like your my fist booby-buddy : )

That's great! My husband took 2 days and wished he had taken at least one more. It was hard to get out of bed/dressed without his help the first 3 days. Lots of button down nightgowns and zip up hoodies. Yay to being boob friends! Haha.

My husband is very very very supportive from the beginning until now that I'm recovering:)

Mine has been super supportive as well. It was me picking at him. It was just my nerves. He calmed my nerves after squeezing and hugging me tight and saying "let's send them old boobs off knowing they were loved (as he did tuning Tokyo to my nipples). And let's celebrate the enhanced boobs when it's over"... then I immediately snapped out of the negativity and got excited. "It's boobie day!!!"

I’m finally out of the daze enough to give an update. First off, I have to say to all you ladies that say “it wasn’t too painful at first”, you all are rock stars. I always thought I can handle pain relatively well but when I woke up, I was literally sobbing/crying asking for alllll medicines. I think my exact words were “please put me back to sleep”. It felt like my breast were in a Vice grip, with my nipples being squeezed and twisted as if they were gonna snap right off my body. The nurse gave me two oral pills, I think dilaudid, and an anti-nausea transdermal. Then they called my husband back and told him that I couldn’t have any more pain medication until 4:30 (3 hours away) because they’ve maxed out what I could handle. By the time we got home and my husband tucked me into bed, the dilaudid kicked in, and I slept soundly for a few hours. After waking up, the pain was manageable. No more Vice grips. Thank goodness!!! I have the ace bandage wrapped around me, so I haven’t seen them yet. I got 350 cc HSC+smooth silicone underneath muscle. I see that she did high profile, and I’m really scared that I’m not going to have that natural drop like I explained to her and that are on my wish pics. I don’t want any roundness on top (personal preference). Please, somebody tell me that I’m overreacting about that. Is it possible to have drop with high profile??? The pictures are of today pre-op and now. Also they didn’t remove my chest dermals and I had no complications with them in, so that’s cool.

Yay! They're going to look great! Haha I would describe the first 3 days as the hardest. I thought I could maybe get through with Tylenol and that was hilarious. I took Valium and Percocet pretty consistently until day 4 or 5. I still kept taking the Valium another week to help me sleep! Ok so funny story... I also thought I would get moderate profile and I asked yesterday at my 2 week and they are full profile. He explained to me that with the size of my chest, he thinks that it would give me the effect I wanted and match my wish pics best. So I'll be hoping the same! So far they don't seem that high and I think they'll settle down nicely ( fingers crossed!). Keep us posted! Hope you're feeling better everyday.

That makes me happy to hear. She did say that I have enough of my own breast tissue that they should drop nicely. Here's to hopeful thinking. ;)
