Like most of you ladies I have been contemplating for years if a TT is the best way to go. Once I made up my mind I then began the search to find the right PS. I came across this girl name Rachel on IG about a year ago who had hers done by Dr. C. Once i saw her incision I was in LOVE ????!! So I decided to do my research on him, but if you follow her on YouTube she's pretty much done it all for you.. Lol but I came across (Realself) and soon realized that she was not the only one that he had work wonders on....... Heck pretty much all of his girls are snatch. So I was intrigued to have a face to face consultation with this DR. Cochran to see what all the (snatch business) was about. Once I was face to face with him I felt relaxed he answered every last question I had with for sure confidence. I didn't feel rushed like most ladies said they did, but I did feel like he's one of those PS that knows his stuff and if you have any questions he'll answer them and that's all!! So I went home prayed some more about it.. Waited a month and decided to pay my deposit and schedule my date 7/8/16. I'll be his 1st patient for the day. I'm excited but just ready to get it over with also. I live 2 1/2 hours away so I'll be coming home the same day. As of last month my balance is all paid off and now all I have to do it get supplies. Let the count down began!!!!

Yes I'm getting around a little more but it is definitely a process you have to mentally prepare yourself for sure. My biggest complaint is not being able to find a comfortable position at night and my back hurts sooo bad. I had my 1st post op appointment today. It was super quick..he said everything looks good and I will see him again on Monday morning before I leave.

Time is slowly approaching.... My feelings are all over the place. I feel a (little) and I do mean a (little) of everything. I think when he starts to mark me up and insert the IV in my neck it will become real.
