I can sleep on my side comfortably.. But when I'm in certain positions I can feel my implants. It's weird to me. Still trying to get used to having them. While I'm at work, I've been trying my best to keep them hidden. I however didn't tell anyone at my work besides a couple close friends. I work with a lot of men and I feel like they are always looking at my chest... Maybe it's just me or maybe they notice a difference. I don't know! I just brush it off and continue to do my job!! Haha I haven't went bra shopping yet bc my PS advised me not to buy any bras or to get fitted until I hit the 10week mark. Since bras are not cheap.. I have no problem waiting so I know I will be purchasing a bra that fits me correctly for the long haul. My sport bras are super comfy right now!! Although, I can't wait to get sized and fitted!!!!! Also, my scars are healing nicely. I would like to purchase a scar cream.. Any suggestions on what brand works the best?

How are you doing, GoldenBoobs? I just re-read your review as we're pretty similar in size, etc. and I really like your results. I finally have a date for my BA - June 7. Still waffling on size though. I'm going in for my pre-op next week and will be discussing size again. Are you still happy with your type and size? I went with the PS I saw for my second consult and he recommended Sientra textured round (rather than the allergan inspira smooth). This PS prefers to use Sientras and Mentors (both in textured not smooth). I researched a ton about Sientra textured and so I feel very comfortable with him using Sientras. Anyways, I hope I'll be able to make some decisions next week about size (and profile)! Hope you're healing well!

Thank you :) your BA is coming right up!!!!!! I bet you're very excited!! Try and keep us all posted on how everything goes!! I am 7 weeks out and I am very happy with my results. Although, I do wish I went bigger. When I went bra shopping last week I found myself fitting into a c/d cup (I was not shopping at Victoria secret either.. I was at meijer.. They had some pretty comfy bras that were reasonably priced!). I went with 425cc moderate plus. I do wish I could have gotten moderate plus profile with but with more volume. So is what I'm getting at is I wish mentor made the high profile in a wider implant. Does that make sense? Now, I am very happy with my results.. Im just the type of person who is always trying to make something better. Lol

I am healing nicely and quickly!! I still cannot feel my side boobs, nipple or under my nipple. Although, I can tell I'm gaining more and more sensitivity as the days go on. My bf says I look amazing.. Even though he says I was amazing before my BA. :) Happy healing to all!!

You're looking great! Can you remind me if you went with Mentor silicone smooth or textured? Sorry if I missed that! I thought I had my type narrowed to Natrelle Inspira smooth round moderate (400 cc) but at my last consult PS recommended Sientra textured round low profile. I tried them and really liked the look. (I have a wide BWD at 13.5). I really liked that PS too and am going to go with him...just trying to figure out size and am reading more reviews on Sientra textured round (or Mentor textured) . Thanks!

Thanks you!! :) I have mentor smooth round moderate plus 425cc with a BWD of 13". I did ask my PS about the textured implants and he didn't recommend them for me. He said it all depends on the doctor. He prefers the smooth texture. How long until you get yours done?!!

Thanks for your response! I could tell my PS prefers the textured but he also uses Mentor smooth implants. I'm scheduled for June 7th. I'm going to go in for another sizing because I'm feeling wishy washy again.

You look great! I'm only 8 days out and so anxious for mines to drop. What kind of massages do you do?
April 28, 2016
My doctor has not given me any massages to do yet... I go back to the doc next week and I'm sure he will show me how to massage them. :) I have been doing my own massages though. Not sure if I'm doing them 100% correct but im trying!! Did your doc give you any massages to do yet?

I don't go back to see my dr until next week. No massages yet but I have also been doing what his web video shows and I've been stretching. It's so tight. I feel like light massage helps.
