I went to see my doctor today and we argued on 400 CC's. I'm really looking forward to surgery . I'm currently a 34A and hoping to become a 34 full C. I was also able to see in person some of the woman he's worked on and they were very friendly and allowed me to ask lots of questions and touch their boobs.

I'm just under 48 hours away from my big day and I'm having a had time sleeping the excitement is keeping me up. Ant tips would really help. Also I was given Alprazolam that I'll bring with me the day of surgery will this also help with pain after?

Sleeping... I took a sleep aid because the excitement was killing me too. I also mentally told myself over and over that the more I relax, the sooner it would be here and it helped to not count every minute. I stayed busy also. Found things to do and people to talk to. :)

I have washed all the clothes I can find, pack up all my bras but one, pack shirts I know will be too small and packed my bag for the surgery lol. I just took a sleeping aid. Oh and I've called just about everyone in my phone LMBO. I guess I'll work on wedding stuff. Oh did I say I'm getting married March of next year in Puerto Rico and we will be going their next month to get everything booked YAY and

Oh my goodness that is so exciting!!!! Congratulations! Have you tried reading a book? I was a YouTube junkie at times and it helped... ;) I watched lots of videos that were related and unrelated to the procedure. When I got my breast aug... I also got my lips injected too... Figured since I was already out... Why not? I got the temp juviderm filler to see if I like it... And I LOVE it!! I plan to get permanent ones before Thanksgiving.

How tall are you? Curious about your height compared to the implant chosen. :). Doing my own research on size/height comparison.
April 28, 2014
I'm 5'5" about 135 lbs I do crossfit so I lift 3-4 days a week I'm not looking forward to taking that time off. My doctor said my height has nothing to do with the size I choose

I am on day 3 after I had a augmentation here in Minnesota on Friday the 25th . I have to say it was the best decision I ever made and I felt a very easy recovery . The day after surgery I already went out for lunch but made sure not to overdo it and rest after lunch and today I went for lunch again . I feel 90 percent today . I will have to say I went stir crazy laying around and on my back agh ! Make sure you find some shows you might want to catch up on while recovering and take Tylenol instead of te narcotics as soon as you can. Those narcotics are the devil . I struggled with addiction so the narcotics was the hardest part of the whole procedure and honestly went right to Tylenol and the muscle relaxer after surgery and I was just fine . Good luck Tuesday ! You will be so happy with yourself and make sure you have a good care taker for the first two days :) no heavy lifting . Good luck

My husband and I we just putting our plan together for dinner and picking up the kids from school. I think I have a high pain tolerance so I'm hoping to not have to take anything after the first few days. I was told by one persons the pain is like when you first start going back the gym after a longtime. Is that true?

Hahaha!!! You probably won't be in that line but hopefully home in bed enjoying some time off. :). Wait until you have "morning boob" or "franken boob" lol. There is also boob envy and armpit boob. Breast implants is an emotion roller coaster of odd terms and weird feelings I've noticed.
April 28, 2014
Oh I don't have much time to take off work so I'll be here the next day. Praying I'm not in too much pain or falling asleep at my desk lol. Ok I need someone to school me on all these terms

Morning boob is the pain of waking up in the morning after your boobs haven't moved most of the night. It's sore and can be painful. I get it daily to different severities that get less as time goes on. Franken boob is related to how your boobs can look when you first get them. There may be swelling, bruising, and your implants may sit high and be uncomfortable. The "pretty" part may take months for them to settle. Boob envy is when you don't think your boobs are big enough and it can cause second guessing on size. I have that now. I feel they are too small but I got large implants and had good breast tissue before, it's just part of the waking process. I'm stuck in a surgical bra for who knows how long and my boobs are restricted by the bra and also by my muscles that haven't stretched out yet. Once my boobs drop and fluff or "d&f" they may look larger to me. I hope this explains. ;)

Yes this help a lot thanks! I'll have to explain to my boobs that have one month to get right going to Orlando and Puerto Rico next month and I want nice boobs lol

Good luck! Can't wait to hear about the experience! Great to learn a bit more about the terminology as well lol 'frankenboob' anyhow drink lots of water. Another lady drank tons and tons of water and healing process was much easier. Also how is it getting placed? I hear that also lengthens the healing process depending on where it is placed. I am torn between all three options. How did you ladies arrive at your decision? My cousins did glandular and were driving the next day my friends did sub and were down for a week. I've read until my eyes are dry but trying to get real life perspective. All of them look fine to me I can't tell the difference u make them all lie in their backs lol

Mine will be sub because I want to be able to nurse again(we plan on having two more kids) I currently drink about 40 oz of eater per day and my nurse said to maybe push it up to about 55 so I'll try. I'm already to tell the difference of placement for sure. What really helped me also was being able to meet the ladies Dr. Yates has worked on they'll very nice and helpful

Please don't get any kind of implant. I'm really sick from my saline implants and having them removed next week. Both of mine are hard and painful and I have constant nausea and chills. Get a push up bra so you'll be healthy.
April 29, 2014
Please don't get the boobs. Read about what has happened to so many women. Love yourself. Get a push up bra.
