Backstory:
After 10 years of non-stop breastfeeding and tandem breastfeeding, I got to my goal weight and my breasts lost a lot of volume. During that time, I was breastfeeding less which further diminished my breast size. They became small, sad, deflated mom boobs.
The day before Thanksgiving, I was lamenting to my husband about the condition of my breasts. I mentioned thinking about getting implants, and right away he told me to go for it. He hasn't really been keen or pro-cosmetic surgery when the topic has come up over the last 20 years that we've been together. I was caught off guard, and he said, "well, you've always talked about wanting boobs."
Even Further Backstory:
My pre-pregnancy bra size was a 34A/B...I've always been self-conscious about the shape and size of my breasts...there was one year in college that I sort of liked them and wore unlined bras...I went with that flat/small breasted look because I was thin and fit. I just didn't mind it...for that one year.
During pregnancy and breastfeeding, I got up to a 38D/DD at the largest. I spent a lot of time at 36C/D though.
Current Backstory:
After my weight loss and slowed breastfeeding, I got to a deflated 34B. I was really getting self-conscious about them again...it was affecting our sex life and my confidence in my everyday, regular world. Nothing fit anymore...it was depressing.
I had been holding onto breastfeeding because my youngest daughter relied on it for comfort and bedtime....plus, breastfeeding boobs are wonderful....I wanted to keep my milkshake boobs for as long as possible.
Once my husband was on board, I immediately looked down and told my daughter that we weren't going to have "nehneh time" anymore. LOL I had been mentioning here and there over the last month that a time would be coming when I wouldn't have milk anymore.
So...Thanksgiving Eve, I got the got the support of my husband to get implants...(I was worried about the cost of breast augmentation...cuz we aren't rich and kids are expensive!!) I promptly told my daughter that this was the last time we would have "nehneh time." I told her that we would still be able to cuddle, so she was fine with it. I was pretty shocked with how well she handled it.
Present story: I had my first consult with Dr. Sloan on 12/12/19. I had been researching prior to the consult, and I decided that Ideal Implants was definitely the way I was going to go. I have various skin sensitivities and an unexplained anaphylactic reaction to an unknown substance about 14 years ago. In addition, I became allergic to tattoo ink after getting my 7th tattoo, 17 years ago. I had gotten that last one 7 years after getting my first tattoo (I started getting tattoos at 14 years old...I could talk my mom into anything. sigh..) ALL of my tattoos reacted once the allergic reaction started. I met with a dermatologist and was told there was nothing I could do. I was put on antihistamines twice a day for months. It was a really difficult time. They itched so badly that the thought of cutting that skin sounded like it would be relieving. I didn't do it, but that's how awfully itchy it was deep down into the tattoos.
Dr. Sloan was very attentive while I explained all of this, and he was supportive about my hesitance to consider silicone implants. He mentioned the trace heavy metals that are in silicone implants and readily provided a copy of the heavy metal analysis that Mentor reported to the FDA. He didn't have this info for the Ideal Implant, but he cautioned that they would have some trace heavy metals as well due to the silicone shell. He told me that he would contact Ideal and get that information to me.
We took measurements and went over the booby guide pictures I had on my phone. We decided that around the 450cc range would achieve the look I wanted. He said that I had enough tissue to go over the muscle, and he thinks it would give me that increased upper pole look that I want. He thinks under would as well, so it’s really up to me as both with achieve the look I want. I tried on sizers, and I liked the 440cc sizer.
I was quoted the price for my breast augmentation with Ideal implants. It was $5795. I wasn't ready to set a surgery date as I had a consult with another doctor a couple of weeks later.

My pre-op boobs and pics with sizers
Here are my boobs to date....empty sacks with sunken in nipples. They are sad. Pics of me playing with sizers. The first consult I chose 450cc, the 2nd consult I chose 550cc, and my third consult I like in between the 500 and 550cc sizer. 90% sure I’ve chosen 545cc inspira soft touch extra full profile. Dr Sloan looked at my wish pics and told me to try on range 450-550cc....he thinks according to my wish pics that I should choose the 550cc.

Homeschool mom, 10 days until my pre-op, recovery with kids at home????
It's only 10 days until my pre-op appointment, and 23 days until my surgery date!! I'm getting excited and scared. I'm afraid I'll have a harder time that I can imagine. I am a homeschool mom of 4, 4yo-10yo, and I'm scared about how recovery will go. My surgery is on a Friday morning, and I plan for my kids to spend Thursday and Friday nights over at grandparents. I don't know if I'll have much more time than that with the kids away. My husband will take off on the Friday surgery day and hopefully Monday....that gives me 4 days at most where I will have help with my kids.
Can I make this work? Will it be miserable?? or impossible?
