$6,200
Well I had my surgery this afternoon! It was scheduled for 3 so I arrived at 2 and they got me right in and got the ball rolling. My nurse was very nice and I changed and she got my IV in to start fluids and shortly after my antibiotics. The anesthesiologist came in and talked to me then Dr. Basu came in and marked me. I told him I wanted to go with 425cc because I would rather be smaller than bigger. He said this would give me a full C. Right after marking me, I went into the OR and the next thing I know I'm in recovery! I barely remember leaving or the ride home. I got home and slept after take my nausea medicine. I woke up and ate some soup and took my Vicodin because the pain and pulling was getting pretty intense. I am pretty upset though because he made me a D. He told my mom post op that the gap between my breasts was too large since my shoulders are so broad and I'm tall. She's pretty upset as well. I don't think they look bad but I sure do hope the swelling goes down. I can't believe he made me so big, I really just don't know what to think about it. I will upload pics soon

Hi Girls...if you were to have leakage from the silicone it stays within itself. Either way be very sure this is something you want. Do plenty of research including those who explant. This completely changed my mind on the horror stories. Within 3 years the chances of either man made item will either rupture or your body will reject. I'm not saying not to do the surgery. Just be sure you are ready for the implications that may come up down the road. Research.....

"Capsular Contracture" this is the body rejection lingo I was speaking about. This happens 1 out of 3 women after 3 years of the implant.

Similar before stats as you with height/weight and I got 425cc silicone. At times I think they're a little large, but think after they settle they'll be perfect. I am loving them though! I hope you have a speedy recovery!

Would love to hear how things are for you now! I am getting 425cc mod plus at the end of this month and my stats are similar...somewhat. I hope you are feeling better about the size?

So I'm getting really nervous for my surgery.. I had a really scary thought a couple of days ago: What if I get stretch marks?! How common is this?? EEk :(

Are surgeries are coming up :). Maybe ask your dr if you can use cocoa butter lotion on the new girls to prevent stretch marks. I used that on my belly during all three pregnancies and didn't get one.
