Where has the year gone?!
WORTH IT$7,300
Last week I celebrated my one year boob-anniversary! Totally crazy. Hubby and I just got back from 10 days alone in Mexico and it was faaaaabulous!! :D We really needed the break! May I just say that I am so so happy I got boobs before we went on a trip like this?! It felt so awesome to be in a bikini and not feel like I had to hide under a towel the while time. I could walk around with confidence and that feels pretty amazing! I was lying on the beach one day and I could feel hubby staring at me, so I ask him why. He says "oh, I just wish I could give your doctor a high five right now" ;) I had a good laugh! I brought s million bathing suits and I had a couple strapless dresses too that I would have never been able to wear beforehand. Freedom. :) Boobs are doing great, I'm totally used to them and obviously loving them. I didn't regain full feeling in them, which does suck a little. But that's one of the risks you take. And I'd do it again in a heartbeat!! Hope all you ladies are doing awesome!

Time flies!
Wow! Cannot believe I've already zoomed past the 1 month mark!!
I am back to almost all of my regular activities (yay for sleeping on my side again!!!), just being careful with super heavy things and not overusing my chest muscles. I am feeling GREAT! The first couple weeks were pretty awful, not gonna lie. But ladies, IT GETS BETTER! It feels like an eternity at the time, but before you know it you'll be feeling human again. Follow the instructions from your PS, take care of yourself, rest lots, and things will go well for you! :)
So I'm finally feeling like these new additions are part of me! At the beginning of this journey, I had many moments of feeling like I made this terrible drastic decision. I think that's pretty normal when you make a big change like this. At this point, I am SO happy. I feel like this burden of body shame has been lifted after all these years. Don't get me wrong, I have other things that I like about myself. But this one part that is so womanly, wasn't there. Not that all women "need" boobs to feel like a woman, but in my mind it did. It has changed so many things for me. I feel like so many people in this world have such a negative view of plastic surgery. They feel like it is vain, or that people mutilate their bodies. Sure, there are some who maybe overdo it, or do it for the wrong reasons. But I feel like most people are just regular people who want to feel GOOD in their own skin. Isn't that ok? Isn't that a good reason? I think so! Ladies-do your research, find an awesome PS, have a support system, and do it for YOU! Before you go through with such a big decision. Those are very important! :)
Ok, my little speech is over! :)
I am now collecting bras and bathing suits! Still a little early for certain styles, but I'm fitting around a 34C right now. Exactly where I wanted to be!!! THRILLED. It's so funny now, I'm avoiding padding in bras and bikini tops! That's the one thing I absolutely needed before and now I'm almost afraid of it! Lol! It's a good feeling!! Hubby and I took the kids to the pool for the first time (since the surgery) the other night and it felt so amazing to not want to hide under a rock while wearing a bathing suit! It was kind of the first public "appearance", as I'm obviously wearing clothes when I'm out usually! Haha. So I was a little shy about them, but I didn't feel like I needed to throw my hands over my chest, or cover up with a towel. It was a really great moment. :D
