Almost surgery day !

KMSmamamedic
WORTH IT$8,700
Today we are 5 days away from surgery. Our plan is 600-650cc silicone under the muscle implants. I'm 29 years old, have had two babies in the past 2 years , and lost 55lbs. My chest has always made me sad. I've always wanted this to get the fullness and figure that I dreamed of. I am 5"8 , 200+ lbs , and size 14 pants/dresses. My current bra size is 38Bish (weirdly in between b and c) , but I lack fullness due to babies and weight loss. Will post a review day of surgery !

Post-op day 1, yesterday was a long day.

Yesterday was a long day. I had to be there at 1030 and left at 530. It took a while to get an iv in my because I think I was so nervous that my veins were like "Peace out I'm gone"! The procedure was done in a blink of an eye ... But when I work up I felt like I got ran over by the truck. 

Thankfully dr.Henrys staff is amazing, and woke up to my super nice nurse by my side. Last night was a long night, but we had alarms set to take meds every 4. 5 hours to stay ahead of the pain. We did go on a little walk about 930 last night (I'm terrified of getting a clot). Standing up straight feels weird with the bandages, but it's getting more comfortable. 

I was a little disappointed that she couldn't go as large as I wanted to because there wasn't room in my chest. I did end up with 500cc on each side though. I appreciate her making a good and safe choice for me. Dr.Henry did call and check on me at midnight last night to make sure I was doing okay and didn't need anything! So sweet.

Congratulations on your procedure!!! I’m sorry you didn’t get to go 650, but I’m sure they are going to turn out awesome regardless. With 650 they would have ended up sagging sooner AND back pain. So you may actually be better off!! Keep us updated and hope you have a speedy recovery :)

So. Yesterday I was a little discouraged ! Today I'm feeling like they are going to perfect once they fluff. It's crazy how much they can change in even 12 hours. The pain almost feels similar to being engorged with breast milk - same with the fullness sensation. I'll try to post as new things comes about :)

Congratulations! I hope they look perfect please share pics later I'm currently looking for a doctor to do my breast augmentation and I want to do 650cc I would love to see how they look on you :)

I couldn't end up doing the 650 as I didn't have enough room in my chest (shocking as I'm a larger built gal) .. but I'm over all happy with 500 so far. Even without them dropping and fluffing to their full potential :)

One of the doctors I saw advised me to go around 400cc. To me it just seems so small lol that's why I'm seeing different doctors just to see what each one tells me. 500cc isn't bad at all. I'm super happy for you and can't wait to see the final results.
