WORTH IT$5,000
5’7”:134lbs:35yrs:32A Desired to be about a large C Planning to have Mentor 275-300cc smooth round moderate plus profiles implanted.
I don’t remember a time when I loved my boobs- other than the nearly 5 years while I was actively nursing one of my four kids. I’ve always been rather thin, flat chested and unshapely. At my largest prekids I was about a 34C, while nursing I’d become a 36D, but now I deflated to a 32A ... maybe.
I got pregnant with my first child in January of 2010 and have pretty much been pregnant or nursing from then until this fall. My body hasn’t been my own in nearly a decade. I’ve done everything for everyone else but me. Last winter I decided that I would begin to start working out again and have whipped my body back into a shape that my 23 year old self would have been envious of- except for my chest. Obviously with weight loss and aerobic activities comes loss of fat, and since breasts are largely composed of fat, of which I have very little, I have nearly no breast tissue left.
To be honest I’m scared. The complication rates for capsular contraction (as reported in the Mentor pamphlet) are higher than I had anticipated or seen in my research and that surprised me. It’s an elective surgery and there are always risks, that I know. But I’ve gotta get out of my own head and stop worrying about all the what if’s. What has everyone else done to calm their mind? Surgery is scheduled for 3/27/19.

Doc is so reassuring

Emailed my PS late on Friday afternoon while I was really freaking out. Totally didn’t expect a response until mid Monday at the earliest but I got an email response from her later that night and another follow up during the weekend. She’s so amazing and has a way of being matter of fact and yet comforting at the same time.
Working to get out of my head. Focus on the goals. Realize that if it’s worth doing it’s worth doing now. Like my husband said .... this is something I’ve wanted for 9 years or maybe more. And if I don’t do it now very likely I’ll look back and wish I had, or I’ll plan and do some time in the future. So why not just do it now and enjoy it and stop wishing I had done it sooner.
Deep breaths.

These are the pics I gave to my PS. She agrees that this wold work on my frame and will use these to make the final choices on my size. Fortunately I didn’t have commit to a cc size before surgery. I told her what I was most comfortable at but gave her freedom to go up or down 50cc to make the best esthetic decisions.
