I feel compelled to write a review after how...

I feel compelled to write a review after how helpful all the other reviews have been, so here's my story...
I have always been small chested. After having my first child and breastfeeding for 6 months, these puppies are now a size smaller and deflated. I went from having confidence about my body to having none in a 34 saggy A cup. Bathing suits and lingerie are frustrating, taking my shirt off in front of my husband is a thing of the past...I now walk around our bedroom with my arm over them. He has bigger boobs (pecks) than me! NOT OKAY with that :( He knows how badly I want this and is in full support mode. Although he tells me all the time he is more than ok with me the way I am. So, I'm not doing this for him. It is all for me! :)
I have been to 3 different surgeons for multiple consultations. The first I just wasn't really "feeling" him, lol. His price was in the right range, but I was looking to bond with my surgeon. The second was a complete disaster. He kept telling me how he liked "his" girls and "his" boobs to look. And then 2 of his assistants came in, lifted their shirts, started feeling on their implants and had me do the same. So unprofessional. Even though I felt as I should have tipped those assistants, atleast I knew what I didn't want to look like. His price was also really low. The third and final surgeon was great! She spent more than enough time with me listening to my wants, measuring me and trying on sizers. The two other surgeons did none of this! They told me what they wanted to see me look like and what they were going to do to me. Instead of treating like a mannequin, Dr Sylora was thorough, gave me adequate time to think about the things she was telling me so I could ask questions and she could answer them and unltimately made me feel like I'm going to finally have my dream boobs! It goes to show, getting more than one consult is CRUCIAL. Now I know when I leave there this coming Tuesday (March 11th) I will have the look I so badly desire (after the healing ofc :) )
I liked the size of the 400 and 425cc HP silicone. I might be going with the 450cc since you lose 25-50cc when going submuscular. This is to be decided day of in surgery. Dr Sylora and her assistant know what I want to look like and will make the call in the surgery room.
So, I have had my surgical clearance from my general physician. Gathered all my meds from the pharmacy. Have arranged babysitters. I'm in the process of making meals to freeze for the fam while I'm down for the count. And this weekend I plan on a cleaning frenzy so I don't have to worry about that for atleast 2 weeks (hopefully :) )

Thank you for the good wishes! Yes, my PS will have different sizes in the range I am looking at to decide in the surgery room. She will have the final say. I do trust her!

These pics were taken today. Thought I would show what they look like in a suit. This top is a 32A from Victoria Secret.
One whole day stands between me and my boobs! I joked to my hubby with "springing" forward I'm an hour closer today! haha. I cleaned the house from top to bottom yesterday. That was the largest task and is now crossed off the list! Tomorrow after my morning workout I will be making a large pot of chicken noodle soup to have ready for when I get home from surgery and will need nourishment without having anything too heavy. Jello is also on the list to make.

About how big are you now from the 400cc? Is that a DD?? I am debating a full C or D but my husband wants a little larger.
March 10, 2014
The first time I ever gave implants a thought, I wanted just that...a full C or D. Once I looked through wish pics and tried sizers on I realized I was looking for more of a full D. 425cc should give me a full D-DD (depending on the brand of the bra). Also, reading around I was finding that alot of women were regretting not going larger and then having revision surgery. So as the saying goes, go big or go home :) lol

I just wanted to say good luck and that I hope your surgery goes well! We are similar stats height/weight wise and I am sure whichever of those sizes your PS chooses will look fantastic on you !! :)
March 11, 2014
Thank you! I hope to look as good as you when all said and done!
March 10, 2014
I am the same weight n height however I want 425cc like half fake n natural as well silicone for sure but the doctor said that I do not have enough breast tissue to hold a 425 without risky I wear a 36A n am 27 years old as well he said the max I can go is 370cc. Time for a new doctor or what?
March 11, 2014
Hmm, I am not sure what your breasts look like..do you have enough breast tissue to handle the larger CC size? I would definitely get a second and even third opinion. I had 3 consults before I found the surgeon I liked. Don't settle until you explore all of your options! After all, you are paying for them :)

Today FLEW by. Like, holy crap I looked up and it was 6pm. This time change is really messing with me! But, I am glad I had things to keep me busy so I didn't have to think about surgery. With a 21 month old you don't have much down time anyways :)
I made 2 big pots of chicken noodle soup. 2 things of jello. Did one last clean sweep of the house, mopped the floors and washed my sheets. Although I just realized I'll be sleeping in the recliner so I won't need those clean sheets, lol, you're welcome hubs :)
Surgery is scheduled for 1:30pm tomorrow afternoon. Super SUPER excited!
Thank you all for the good wishes, I do appreciate every one of you!

I hope to write tomorrow evening when I get home and comfortable.
