I am 29 years old and my boobs haven't stopped growing since 4th grade. I was a D by 8th grade, DDD by 12th grade, at the age of 21 I was a G, 25 they were a J. I then got pregnant and nursed my child and was an astonishing L. I couldn't even believe bras where made that size! I have been done nursing for 5 months and at 29 I an a JJ. I am down to 145 lbs and can no longer take the strain they put on my life.

Wow, your breasts look incredibly similar to what mine did before my surgery. It's like looking in a memory mirror. Mine were smaller at a DD, but shape-wise, quite similar. You're going to LOVE it!!!

They are very similar. I can't believe you were only a DD. They look way larger. Thanks for sharing your story :)

Ha, I always thought they looked bigger than a DD, too. But I'm super short at 5'0", which is why they looked so giant on me, I think.

Good luck, Bambi! Can't wait to see how amazed you feel when that weight is gone!

Yesterday I got a call from the hospital to pre-register for my surgery. Just another step closer to becoming my 7th grade me.

So this may seem weird but I think my three year old son is aware my boobs are going away. For the last two weeks, he has been very aware of them. He's been giving me big hugs but he nuzzles his face right into them. He's also been a little aggressive at times punching them. He'll ask me, what are these mommy. I say my chest and he says no they are your boobs. It's like he has a sixth sense about it.

One more comment made to me by my husband. Can you find out how many women on that forum have gotten divorced after the surgery? I thought it was quite odd. He's nit the self doubting type of guy.

I was approved from the insurance within 1 day (way faster than expected) and they were able to get in in within 2 weeks but due to work conflicts I had to schedule it for June 13th. My initial consultation with the PS was in April.

I started reading my doctors post op instructions and it says to use Arnica Gel but there are a couple different types. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Not long now, Bambi!

I personally know at least five women who have had a reduction, plus me, and none of us have had a divorce after having a reduction. As far as me, it makes me more comfortable even with my husband and our relationship has never been better, and part of that is due to my confidence now. And while I'm not a small-breasted girl now, I'm not freakishly large like I was when I was an H-cup and I don't draw quite as much attention as I use to. As for my husband's feelings toward me and my breasts, he is  in no way horrified or repulsed by them or the scars. I didn't show them to him for the first several weeks. He tends to be a bit squeemish and I didn't want him to think of the frankenboobies every time he looked at me.
