I've always had small breasts and now, I've finally decided to do something about it. I'm scheduled for BA tomorrow, 2/18/11. I'm nervous, excited, and a little anxious. I'm praying that all goes well and that I'm very happy with the results. I'm concerned with what types of shirts I can wear post surgery. Also, I welcome any advice to make recovery as painless as possible.

Well, surgery went successful....praise God!!! I was very nervous when I arrived at the surgery center, but all the staff went out of their way to make me as informed and comfortable as possible. That meant so much to me. I try to think back and I don't remember when I went to sleep with the anesthesia and when I woke, I didn't know where I was or what happened. Then it dawned on me and the first thing I did was look down. I was glad to see that I didn't have two big bowling balls on my chest ( I didn't want to go to big). I wanted to go from an A cup to a full C cup....I think that's where I'll be once the swelling goes down. I must say that the pain is minimal. I'm sore, but the medication and the stretches have helped alot. The nausea from the anesthesia was worse than the soreness of my breasts. It's now been several hours....my surgery was at 11:30 am and I basically slept all day. The meds make me very groggy. My right side seems a little more swollen then my left, but I'm using ice packs for that. So far, all is well. I go for my 1st postop visit on Monday and I'll continue to update throughout my progress. Pics to come soon!

I went with the Mentor Smooth Round Moderate Plus Profile Saline-filled. He went with 400cc filled to, I believe, 460cc or 480cc. I was so out of it, I forgot to confirm what he actually did. I hope this helps!

Day 2 - Post Op.
No nausea! Yay!!! A little more soreness, some pain, but nothing unbearable. I went to breakfast this morning with my bestfriend, who's been so kind to let me stay at her house during my recovery. My daughter is with her father so I can truly get some rest. Tonight, I'm going to dinner with friends....we'll see how that goes. I'll keep you updated.
