Well hi ladies, pre and post. I've been reading...

Well hi ladies, pre and post. I've been reading your stories for the past month and decided to share mine with you in the hope I can help someone the way you gals have helped me.
I'm a 40 year old with 2 baby boys, one aged 42 and one aged 2. I've been living with these monsters for years hitting a D cup when u was 20 and gradually increasing over the years hitting the I cup when I had my lovely boy.
I've loved even adored them for many years and presented them in the best possible way from sexy to somber but in the past few years my man killers ( they could have been;) ) have become a burden to me and interfered with my well being and the way I look at myself.they have served me well in their years but these babies gotta go now.
Things I hate about them;
Old men leering, especially here in Spain, big boobies are a local attraction
Gaping shirts or not being able to find a shirt and having to buy a tent instead
Not being able to wear dresses, terrible when it hits 35-40 Celsius
Not being able to run without holding them ( awful for a former x country runner)
Not Being able to exercise without a constant swinging lead weight on your chest
The way they hang down so far
The way the hang 'over the edge' when I'm lying flat
Only being able to buy bras online for god awful prices
The way they look
The weight of them
The pain between my shoulder blades
The pain in my lower back in the morning when I wake ( I sleep on my front)
The nerve knots I get beside my shoulder blades
My little man using them as a plaything
And that's just a few reasons.

I went to see my PS on 13 February , I had been with him before for bilateral carpal tunnel and the scars on both my hands are beautiful. My dad had the same op and you would think the surgeon had transplanted Frankensteins scar to his hands, you wouldn't see mine. Well at that time 5years ago he mentioned he did breast surgery and I made a mental note to myself to go back. I did and was originally told between end March and 10 April but then he broke his wrist so been given a new date of 27th. Not thrilled as my bro is getting married in mid June and I wanted to ensure I was on the best side of recovery. Was actually devastated as had my mind set for the original time period so another 7 weeks just sent me to melt down for a few hours. I sent a grovelling email so hopefully he will move it by a week or 2.... Fingers crossed!!! I don't want to go anywhere else as he's the best.

Cost is €6950 but now going to try my medical insurer as I have a longer wait

Thankyou for your story, I look forward to hearing how you get on, everything you feel is being echo'd by every woman on this site going through the same thing, its great to have such a supporting environment to go to and know your not alone :)

I know, I think the women on here are brill, it's not often you get such a supportive group of strangers but maybe it's because we're all strangers that makes it easier

Best of luck you will be so glad that you did it for yourself. I would however not rush the surgeons recovery......... Go for the insurance if your surgeon suggested the surgery 5 years previously I bet you will get cover easily. Looking forward to hearing your updates.

Oh I know, he is back at work and I said, whatever he feels is best , it's just that I can help feel a bit miserable over the timing. I'm sure I'll get over it.:))

Of course you do and will when you finally make the decision to have the surgery and get your head around it the last thing you want or need is for it to put back. Everything will work our fine, patience (Easy for me to say)

Still waiting

My PS secretary said she would email last mon if I could get an earlier date, no mail as yet so sitting on eggshells...still 27 April, I wish it was tomorrow!!
Anyone got a list for what to bring to hosp? I have gotten a few front fasteners and some 'genie' bras for after but do I really need a surgical bra?? Would esp like comments from Europe on the list thing as more likely to be able to get what's suggested. Hubby thinks I'm a bit mad preparing now but that's what he said when I put my suitcase in the car when I wS 32 weeks pregnant, little man arrived at 33w and 3 days... Can never be prepped enough in my opinion lol.
I have officially developed a boob obsession which has resulted in my 2yo shouting int the supermarket yesterday 'docka gonna cut mom as Bobbies with knife' good job not many of my locals speak English lol. I keep looking at them and trying to half them to get an indicator of their new size. Needless to say its a bit pointless but I like to show willing!

keep pushing for your earlier date, i would contact them again. if they just had a cancellation it is easier for them to offer it to the person on the phone than ring round several people.

Had just emailed when I got your message, don't worry , I'm not one to let things slide lol apart from waiting so long for this.
