Hello everyone. I'm new to this site. I'm originally from Cuba, living in Canada. I'm 20 years old and had a baby, breastfeed for over a year. My breasts are very saggy, they look very bad. i've always been small, and im planning to stay small with the AB, as I am thin, about 104 lbs and I dont think I would look good with larger breasts! I just want them fuller and firm. I've been thinking about it over and over. Your stories make me more secure and has helped me to finally make the decision! I'm nervous about the negative sides, but very excited to have my breasts back and even better.
I so far called one of the best surgeons in Edmonton, he's very busy. So the receptionist just ask for my address and she would send me a package with all the information and procedures etc, she said they'll probably won't be able to see me in 3 to 4 months maybe more, because there's a waiting list. Im just waiting for the mail to get home and will call back, and see what happens from there.
I would like to get some information on your own experiences with saline or silicone. Under or over the muscle. And if I dont know what to choose, although once I see the doctor he'll let me know what's best for me, but i'll like to hear your own experiences!!
Thank you so much!!
Will be updating as things happen..

I am 14 days PO today with saline, under the muscle 550 HP. I know that sounds large, but for me to be proportional with 42" hips I needed these to balance it all. I love my saline implants. I had some gurgling during the first week but not any more. And, when my hubby touches them he says they just feel like me. I was a 36b-c to start so I started out with a lot of my own breast tissue. I also chose saline because I feel that it is safer and personal expense for MRIs every 2-3 years can run upwards of $7000 so I feel it is prohibitive. Best of luck!

Thank you for the information!
I really do appreciate it as Im still thinking about it all. I still cant believe im actually going to do this haa.. But Im very excited though I still dont know what kind of implants to choose but hopefully once I speak with the doctor I'd be able to decide with his help.
:D

Boo... 3-4 months? (although you did say he's the best) But unless he's the only best surgeon in the country, I'd recommend at least calling around and going to other surgeons for a consultation. I mean, if nothing else, at least you'll be better prepared to ask questions in your real consultation with Dr. Mehling. I'm going with sillicone for the softer feel. My surgery is Oct. 30th. Then agian, if you look at my profile, I've searched all the internets has to offer high and low, I consult Dr. Google at least twice a day on boobs, and check for wish pics on Tumblr at least once a week. I dont think there is one more thought I could possibly put into boobs that hasn't already been written about! Haha!
Good luck, let us know how your decision making process goes!
~silly hugs!~

Hello
Just a little update. I called Dr. Mehling today (the recepcionist actually) and I asked how long I would have to wait for my consultation, she said about 4-5 months and after the consultation I might have to wait another few months, she sAid it could take up to a year I SAID WHOOOOOTTTT !!
So I decides to call another surgeon and they gave me a consulation for decemberrrr 19!!!!!!!!!!!! Im soooo excited super excited !!! I really couldnt wait that long with dr mehling ..
I will be posting some wish boobs and some of my own... Which is embarrasing because I dislike them very much, but it is much helpful to have those there, in order for you to be able to give me more advices etc.
Anyway I do want to have the silicone.. Whatever is most natural, and size still dont know as im not too familiar with the sizes of implants... Im gonna have to google that as well!
