I am 32 years old with a wonderful husband and 2 year old son. I've always wanted boobs! I'm a 34a or b depending on bra brand. They're now pretty deflated after 1.5 years of nursing. I also have a good bit of unwanted belly fat. First PS consult felt rushed and very impersonal. I met with a 2nd surgeon for a consult yesterday. He really took his time with explaining the procedures and what I wanted. I want 400-500cc silicone implants under the muscle and smartlipo in the abdomen. Trying to decide a size is SO hard! My surgeon suggested that I bring in as many wish boob pics as possible to my patient teaching appointment, as well as pics to show what I think is too small/large. I've been obsessed with this project! Every time my husband walks into the room "Oh my gosh, are you STILL looking at boobs?!?!" I'm so excited about this and so nervous about recovering with my son at the same time! Right now, my surgery is scheduled for may 11th with my patient teaching appointment on april 29th. If anyone cancels/reschedules next week during their pt teach appointment, they're going to put me in their spot for surgery on april 20th! I'm really hoping for April 20th, bc I get really impatient and obsessive about things like this once I fully commit to doing it. In the meantime, I guess I'll get back to my wish boob collage....
I'm absolutely terrified about the recovery process. My 35 lb 2 year old is a wild child! He doesn't like to cuddle or be carried around too much, but I am worried about his "bear/tiger/dragon/dinosaur hugs". Diaper changes are usually a battle, he needs help getting into his car seat correctly, and I have to get him in/out of his crib for naps and bedtime. My husband will be at home for 4 (possibly 5) days and then I'm completely on my own.

Thank you for sharing your story with this community. Will you be getting a breast lift as well as implants?

No, I'm not sure if you'd call them deflated...They're just flattened up top and a lot less squishy and LOTS smaller

Good luck! I can't wait to see results! (Love Charleston btw!) I forgot to mention in my reply to you that I went over the muscle (subglandular) Because of sagging from breast feeding and having a decent amount of native breast tissue, my PS was willing to do this. The recovery was fast and I never had that "high up on the chest" look. But if you want them perky/high up, stick with under the muscle. I personally am a big fan of the "Kate Upton Sag" and wanted that look to my breasts.

Spoke with surgeon's office yesterday and begged them for a sooner date. She was going to talk with the doctor to see if they could squeeze me in. I'm beyond excited! What kind of goodies can I take them the morning of surgery?

I went to 2 other PS consults (4 total) b/c sometimes I overthink things and feel like I might be missing out on things/options/info. One of the other surgeons I really liked was Dr Schimpf. He and everyone else at his office was very nice, informative, and helpful. I decided to go with Dr Widenhouse at first b/c I really liked him too. He was very informative and made me feel very comfortable. He spent about 1.5 hr during my consult going over all the info and answering questions. He was also a few hundred $$ cheaper... HOWEVER, we ran into some major scheduling conflicts with the original May 11th date and my husband has to go out of state for 4 months at the end of May. Because I have a 2 year old, I felt very uncomfortable having this surgery done a couple of weeks before him leaving. Thankfully, I had not paid my deposit yet. I called Dr Schimpf's office and they have me scheduled for April 21st!!! Preop is in 5 days. Its getting real! I also requested to see Dr Schimpf while I was there just for a few follow up questions and to touch base.
I've been going back and forth on the lipo for a while and made the official decision NOT to do the smartlipo for a number of reasons. 1) I feel like there are a LOT of negative reviews on the procedure. 2) The end result, or even noticeable result, isn't seen for a while and I'm extremely impatient. 3) Its pretty much summertime and I can't think of a worse time to have a thick binder strapped around my body (then the thinner one for a few weeks) PLUS the swelling from my boobs. I think I'd get very claustrophobic. 4) I feel like after implants, I'm going to have an extra incentive to get into better shape and with the money I save from not getting lipo, I can get a personal trainer if I need to once I'm allowed to work out again.
Surgery will be on a Thursday. My husband will be off Th, Fr, Sat, and Sun. I arranged my friend to come over to my house M-Th with her 2 kids to be with my son until his nap time. Surely I can manage 2 hours from when he wakes up until my husband is home. Right??? He's 35+ lbs but he's only 2 so he still needs to be lifted and held sometimes. I have a lightweight activity table that we've been practicing him climbing on to get in and out of the crib I'm really hoping I'll be like one of the few supermoms I've read about on here that went back to full time mommy-ing their babies/toddlers after a few days.
