Omg!!!! I haven't logged in for awhile and I seem my before pics. I cannot believe that is me!!!!! Those little boobies. Lol. Ok I am doing great. Everything is totally back to normal and I am soooo used to these babies that some times they look too small to me. Yikes!!! I lobe them though and the 20 new victoria secret bras do too. I do feel the bag in my right boon in different areas from time to time but nothing too bad. Hmmmm...I'm not sure what else to mention. Sometimes when I lay on my stomach my boobs feel weird. The incisions look ok although one areola looks bugger than the other because of the incision. My right side nipple sensation hasn't really come back either yet :( ok...now the pics

OMG I am LOVING my breasts!!!! They feel like they are totally mine. No pain and I sleep anyway I want. I've been cleared from any restrictions and I can take the tape off the nipples and start scar treatment. The scars from the blisters are still there so I am treating them too. My left nipple is super sensitive and my right I have very minimal feeling in. Doc said it should start coming back soon and a long as I have some sensation I can be assured it will all come back. The implants get a little sore now and then because they may be hitting a nerve. But nothing serious. Love love them. :)

So glad! See, patience is a virtue! Just wait as you will continue to look more and more natural. I got to the point where I wished they would not move but we have all learned that is not possible with gravity! After 4 months post-op, I still wear some sort of bra to sleep in as I do not want them to sag over time! Congrats and you look great! ;)

They re beautiful! Glad you are adjusting well to them! If you don't mind me asking, do you still wish you went down a size?
I'm in between 350 and 400 everyone keeps telling me 400 but I'm thinking 350
Pre op tomorrow!

Oh I totally agree with them. I would do the 400. I was only going to do 400 and that was the most I wanted to do. Now my smaller boob is 440 and I'm like...ugh...I need that extra 10 that the right one has. It looks so much better. Lol. Once the welling goes down and all I think you will be happy. I was SOOOOO nervous about being a D cup and I was sooo nervous about doing 450 cc's at only 5'3. I'm so happy my nurse said to do the 450 because if they were any smaller I don't think it would have been worth the surgery. I hope this makes sense because I totally know where you are coming from and I thought they were hideously huge after the surgery. Now I think they are perfect! and had I done any smaller I would have really wished I had gone bigger. They always say...if you can live with them being a little bigger than you wanted then go with that size. Hope that helps.

@boobs4momof3-do what you think is best for you as you have to carry them around every day forever! I am 5'5. 125 and had a sagging barely B..I was so unsure of the size and went back to my PS 3 times and ended up with 350 cc submuscular. I am now a 32 DD and luv them (which I never would have thought)! I am very happy I did not go smaller as originally planned as the muscle compresses about 10%. They have changed so much since my surgery July 3rd but I truly am so happy and wished I would have done years ago! Good luck!

Thank you for your input, I appreciate it! I am still unsure of my size! Lol
I am trying on 350 cc for 400 implants to compensate for the 10% under the muscle
I haven't tried in the 310cc for the 350 implant yet tho so I plan on doing that tomorrow! I'm so afraid of going too big or too small uuuuugh lol
It's so weird how the same height and weight produces so many differang sizes post op lol. I know what we start with comes into play. I'm afraid of going too big and having to down play them and not be comfortable running...but I'm also afraid of going too small and barely noticing lol
This is the hardest decision of all!

Hey sorry for the question but since you have saline do your breast feel more firm or soft. I'm still debating if I should get saline or silicone. Honestly I wish I can touch somebody with both silicone and saline implants! Lol
November 19, 2014
Hi hun. Don't apologize. We are all family on here. :) Please ask any questions you need to. This is a big decision. Okay, so I am softening up a lot and I'm really happy with how natural they feel and how squishy they are so far. They are a little bit firmer towards the middle of the breast near the nipple are but my nurse says they will continue to shift into the pocket within the next 6 weeks and will that will go away. I like how soft they are now, the bounce, and how they still have a youthful firmness to them as well. So I'm hoping they don't change too much. Hope that helps and please ask anything you need to. :)

I do the same thing Lol. I don't want them to say or go down too much so I still sleep in a bra too. My sister had hers done about three years ago and hers are very bouncy now but look very natural. I would have not guessed 6 weeks ago that I would love them the way I do. :) Thank you for keeping me positive. :)
