After 8 Yrs of Talking About It, I Finally Had my BA Done! :) - Encino, CA

My husband and I have been talking about me having a BA for the past 8 yrs now, and I finally did it! Couldn't be happier! I had the surgery on Aug. 13th. Having 2 kids took it's toll on me. Now I have self confidence back:) I thought that I was a C, but when I went to my PA for my consult, I was informed that I was actually a B. I had 500 cc's of silicone placed behind the muscle on each side. Very happy with the size! Nice and full now:) I was concerned at first that my left side nipple appears to be pointing more down than my right, but my PA told me I still have swelling and a lot of changing left. Also, if one was that way before, it would still be that way after. Had a lot of bruising afterwards. My PA informed me that staying in the heat was causing me to bruise more. So, I have been staying in the AC more and am looking much better now:) I am still sore. I figure that I will be sore for a bit longer though. I'm one who likes to do things myself, so it's a bit of an adjustment on not lifting heavy things just yet. I have my wonderful hubby to remind me though and help out :) I did a lot of research in looking for a good sports bra to wear. Wasn't real pleased with the champions, so I got on this forum and found someone who really liked the Moving Comfort Fiona. I bought one to try and love it! I'm sure I will have lots of questions for my PA when I return on the 30th for my 3rd post op.

Oops-meant PS, not PA......

My bruising is almost gone now-yay! Just a couple of spots left :) Still sore, some times more than others. One thing that I realized that I forgot to say is my height and weight. I am 40 years old. Weigh 113 and am 5'3". I had the Natrelle style 15 silicone implants, and it was 533 cc's, not 500 cc's (not quite sure why I had 500 in mind;) I'm anxious to start excersizing again so that I can work on toning my abs:) That will be one question for my PS when I go to my post op Thurs. I think that everything is going well, so hopefully I get the same from my Dr Thurs :) I have to say that I am concerned with the signs of CC, so I will be sure to ask him when I see him on what all to look for.
