38yrs, 3 kids, Breast feed all 3 kids. Currently at a 34b. Confirmed 350cc silicone rounds.
Looking to be more natural, worried I'm going to big and stressing as my BA is so close! I've been reading a lot that makes me feel better. All my family and friends say the 350cc under the muscle look great!

Hi, I share the same sort of story as you! 3 kiddies all BF and was considering the 300cc or 350cc under silicone rounds. How is recovery? Are you happy with your size and have you got any drains in? My surgery is less than 2 months away. Also what profile did you get? Your post op pic looks great.

Morning! Recovery has been great for the most part, knock on wood. Sleeping has been the hardest as I am a side sleeper. I have also found that when sitting up if my husband slides his hand behind my back and pushes me up makes all the difference in the world! When it comes to pain meds if it states 1-2 pills going with the 2 pills is much better, the 1 pill alone doesn't cut it and if it states 4-6 hours taking them closer to the 4 hour mark makes things better. So far I'm extremely happy with my size! First few hours I thought I might have boob greed but this morning I think it is going to be perfect. I ended up with 355cc moderate plus, smooth round silicones. I do not have any tubes in, but I have also already noticed the small popping in the muscle that other reviews have mentioned, it's not bad at all actually makes me feel like there is movement. Hope this helps! Let me know if you have other questions. Best of luck, I sure things will be great!

Hello again, thanks for the great detail. How are you coping with managing the kids? I am one who usually cannot sit still so and worried about being so restricted. Hopefully your pain levels decrease and you get to stretch out the pain meds too. I'm curious, have you explained your procedure to your kids? It's a little strange, I've wanted to have this BA for a while, so I can feel like a 'woman' and regain life there as the kiddies deflated me! But I want this to be a private part of my life so am going to try and conceal it from family and friends. My kids are 4 and 10 so wondering if they will notice. What type of look did you ask your surgeon for? I want something natural looking, or even 'slightly' augmented if there is such a thing :)
Also, how are your energy levels? Can you get out and about for a few hours or are you wanting to be in bed or at home. I'm trying to decide on whether I book a hotel to stay at for a couple of nights before returning home. Your story is giving me courage :)

Evening! Happy to give as much detail as possible. I know how helpful this site has been for me and hope I can pay it forward. As for managing the kids two of my 3 are older (17 & 21) and I sat with them and explained how my body had changed after having children and I just did feel good about myself while looking in the mirror. As for my youngest she is just about 9 and that made me a bit more uncomfortable so we just explained that mommy was having surgery on her breasts, nothing bad. She went on with normal activities the evening of my surgery and I even woke her up for school this morning and I arranged a sleep over tonight for her. She doesn't seem to curious or worried. I believe open communication is always best. My energy level has been pretty low, however I pushed myself over the last few weeks to get every last workout in that I could, all the items around the house to my expectations and everything at work lined up. On top of all that I was severely stressed prior to my Procedure day. I'm sure that is taking it'd toll now too.
I did explain to my physician that I wanted a more natural athletic look, nothing massive. Something that when I look at myself in the mirror I felt good about myself and if others looked at me they would be on the fence if they were fake.
I did get out for a bit today, target, Costco and the grocery store. I was irritable and tired by the time I got home, but also realized I was starving! Lastly I found this evening the sports bra I came home with from the PA office was causing more discomfort than what it was worth! I just switched to a Calvin Kline sports bra and am feeling 150% better! I would definitely pick on up. My PA is very flexible on the sports bras of my choice.
I know this is a ton of info, hope it helps!

I was the way before my surgery. Wanting to be natural but more womanly. Im 4'11, 125lbs, 36A/34B. I ended up getting 345CC to be a large C because the 365 sizer scared me. (Didn't want to end up being a D!)
Now....I wish I would've gotten the 365 CC because I ended up only being a 34D. Seems crazy that Im exactly what I didnt want but it still doesn't seem big enough. Believe me, you'll want to be bigger after its all said and done. Promise.

I have complete all the steps from the consultation to trying many sizes and I am set for November 17th!
I am 38yrs old and have small boobs (34a / 32b I wear). I am 5'1'' weighing 118lbs.
I want a natural look and after lots of research have decided I am aiming for a 'strong C' cup. I have read lots of reviews etc and was thinking I would be having about 270 rounds. I really wanted to go under the muscle.
Anyway, after my consultation and trying on the sizers, have decided on 350 Mentor smooth rounds, under the muscle. I was surprised that they looked the right size for me. We started small and worked up - the bigger size I tried after 325cc was just too big I thought. My PS said if he uses the 350cc I will get the look of the 325cc and I will be maybe a very full C maybe a D depending on bra. They did not look like I imagined a D to be? They didn't look huge - just nice and shapely. I am of course very nervous about the size and as my date grows closer my anxious!!!
This is something I have thought about doing for all my adult life. I am excited but very nervous too!!
