A little about my self.
I'm 21 years old, 5'2, 120lbs and currently a deflated 34D and very unpleased with the size, volume and shape of my breasts.
in High School I was a full 34B and after HS my boobs grew into a full 34C, which I was pleased with, especially because my boobs were nice and round and perky and I had nice light nipples, but I always wanted DD so I had always planned on getting implants for my 21st birthday. Since I got pregnant when I was 20 that didn't happen. During my pregnancy my breasts grew up to a 34DD and I loved them. They were nice and round and full and very perky but once I stopped breastfeeding my son they quickly started deflating and sagging.
A few months ago I decided that I was going to fix my breasts to boost my self esteem. While doing my research I realized that most likely I was going to need a lift so when my doctor told me that I did indeed need a lift it wasn't much of a surprise. During my first consultation my Dr went over the procedure he would do to lift my breasts. He recommended an Anchor lift with no augmentation, but I told him that an augmentation was a must for me. He then went on to tell me that if I chose to do the augmentation he would recommend me going with only 350CC's and if I wanted them bigger not to go any bigger than 400CC's because since I'm already getting a lift, getting big implants would eventually lead to another lift.
While trying on the sizers I tried to keep in mind everything he told me but decided to go with 400CC's rather than just 350.
I have my surgery schedule for September 3, 2016 and I'm so excited to share my BL/BA journey with you all

This week I got my blood work done (I went to Lab Corp since my insurance covers it). I also got my medications (which was also covered by my insurance) my doctor prescribed me Keflex (500mg) to fight bacteria and treat infections, Norco (5mg/325mg) pain reliever, Phenergan (25mg) for nausea and Soma (350mg) muscle relaxer. I also lost 5lbs and feel as if my breasts got smaller, my 34C bras fit me much better than my 34D.
I've also been thinking that I might change the size of my implants to 375CC's, but so far it's just a thought, I'll make up my mind the day of my surgery.

Hi! My surgery is on the same day! I am also going with a 350 or 375cc. What profile are you doing?

Hello, I'm leaning towards High profile but nothing is for sure yet. How about yourself?
August 25, 2016
I am not sure. My Dr. Suggested high profile but I am unsure.

I also went to doctor doan he's an amazing doctor and from my opinion I would say go with your first mind the 400cc I wanted 650cc because I was really small but then I second guessed myself thinking it was to big and got 600cc I'm fine with the 600 but wish I would have got the 650

The day finally came!
One of the nurses called me yesterday to inform me that my arrival time had changed from 6 am to 7:15am. I got there 15 min early and still had to wait for at least 2 hours before they started prepping me. My surgery took about 2.5 hours. I did an anchor lift with implants. I had 375cc's put into my left breast and 400cc's on my right. I woke up on a great deal of pain at the clinic but once my pain killers started kicking in, I was ready to go. The drive back home (30min drive) wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I've been taking my medication right on time and the pain has be tolerable. I'm also able to go to the restroom without any help, which is a huge plus. I've also been taking naps on my recliner which is 100x more comfortable than my bed. I've been walking little by little to avoid any blood clots.
So far everything is running smoothly, I'll keep you guys updated! xoxo
