I am 43 and a mother of 4,(ages 25, 22, 19 & 17) I breastfed 3 of my babies. I was a C cup before babies and a D cup during breastfeeding. I was 126 lbs until I started to go thru marital stress. I lost 31 lbs and was only 95 lbs. Of course it seems like 10 lbs came from my breasts!!!


I got divorced and when I started to date I was so embarassed to be seen naked. Of course the men my age I dated were no better. Who IS sexy at 40-43??? I met a wonderful man (with 3 kids) and we are now married. We got married in Las Vegas 6/30/2012. That was our "honeymoon". SO this year for our 1 year annivesary we dedided to go to the Bahamas. I had to carefully research our trip due to my jealousy and lack of breasts. I didn't want to go on vacation where women were walking around topless.


Then I started looking online at beach dresses. I got depressed when every dress I wanted I could NOT fill out! Then and there I decided to redirect my search online to Plastic Surgeons. I read many testimonials and decided this is what I was going to do. The next morning I woke up and thought "what the hell are you thinking?" Then I looked at the dresses I want for the Bahamas and decided I AM doing this. If I can finance it, I will. My husband is supportive because he wants me to feel good and secure. He's an ass man, so my breasts don't bother him. He says he likes them natural. But I want to look in the mirror and be happy. I want to buy clothes that fit and flatter me. Hell, I can still wear girls size 16 shirts, dresses!! My stepdaughter and I tried on the same dress (different sizes) in the girls section.

I researched the top 2 PS online in my area. I originally wanted a woman, but I did not like the pictures I saw (only 1) for the one lady PS and the other one, I believed she did my moms reduction years ago. (my mom passed away 8 yrs ago so couldn't verify this for me)


I then rememebered a facebook friend of mine, whom is the girlfriend of my ex sister-in-laws dad. She has been a nurse for a PS for 23 years. I asked her whom she worked for and he was one of the 2 PS I was researching.
I contacted her via facebook. She squeezed me in for a consultation that very week. Now I am scheduled for April 19 for surgery. I am hoping all goes well and I am heeled before my Bahamas trip June 28. I ordered my dresses and pray they fit. I am so excited!!!

You should have no problem being ready for your trip in 10 weeks. I had mine over muscle and I'm 3 weeks out now. Went back to full time work this week. I have a very physical job and so far so good. Over muscle recovery seems to be easier than under. I'm happy and excited for you!

I'm glad to hear your back to work.....cause I too have a very physical job!! I only took 2 weeks off since I don't get vacation time. I just had 2 weeks off in January too for a hernia operation!

April 13, 2013
wow! Only 2 weeks for a hernia repair? That must've been tough! My PS said I could go back to work in 2 weeks but if I can take off 3 that would be even better.

My boss actually messed up & had me scheduled 1 day before I planned to go back. Surgery was Jan 10, was back on Jan 23. My coworkers were very helpful & understanding. I went back on light duty....10 lbs before my post op visit & then 30 lbs for 6 weeks.

Thank you for sharing all the details of your story. Your thought process is so similar to many other women...you're not alone! If you have 4 children, this will be a breeze and you'll be able to handle and discomfort. What type of implants and size did you discuss at your consult? Hoping you've gained a bit of weight back!  :)

OK....damned phone....and no edit button. I wanted saline under muscle, PS wanted to do a lift on my left. No way am I having scars on just 1 breast. So he is doing silicone over the muscle to avoid a double bubble.

My recovery for over the muscle has been very easy. I'm 1 week post op. mine look good for 1 week. I went with over the muscle because I lift weights and it helps lift the girls up a bit without an actual lift ;). You will love them! My hubby is an ass guy too ;) but I feel better with my new girls!

Do you think I will feel well enough roo go back to work (on might duty) after 2 weeks?? (With over the muscle?)
User Avatar
April 18, 2013
Ugh stupid phone......* back to work. (Light duty)
April 18, 2013
I would think so. I was back at light duty (50lb restriction) on POD5. I was restricted for 2wks the released to full duty.

Good cause my boss asked me today if I thought I needed more than 2 weeks off? Well how would I know?? I took 2 weeks off cause that's all I know. If it goes longer he's talking about having to reapply for my job!! Heck no.....I'm not starting at starting wages again!! I'll just quit then!!
April 18, 2013
Call your PS just to make sure, though. A different guy I went to did say he would've had me off completely for 2wks then light duty for 2-3 more. Each one is different.
April 19, 2013
My PS says under the muscle has a more natural look, but I also work out and have a strenuous job, I wonder if I should go over the muscle. How different could it be? I didn't realize it helps lift them a bit too! I could use that :) What is your size?
