36yo 34H W 2kids (1 & 2 1/2) I'm Ready!!

I've met with my PS and I have my pre - op next week. Like everyone here I have disproportionate Breasts and want to correct it. I finished breastfeeding my daughters and the shape and firmness were gone. This summer I haven't wanted to go to the beach or Lake with my family bc I don't want to be flopping all over the place. I owe it to my daughters to get out there and have some fun. I want to show them we can always improve and be our best selves.
So here I go! !

Has anyone here gone through this with very small children?

My PS has said that I should be able to "do everything except put them in their car seats by the end if the first week". Has everyone's recovery been like their surgeon said it would be or should I be skeptical?

I have read lots of reviews and I know that recovery differs by person... just wondering if the PS really does best predict.

I'm 36 5'3" 140# with very pendulous 34H Breasts hoping for a 34E.

I have BCBS and they are covering all but $150 as a medical necessity due to pain and shoulder grooving.

Today really felt like the surgery is happening. When I was 30 I had a pulmonary embolism that has been attributed to birth control. My PS wanted carrying orders from my hematologist to determine how to handle possible blood clots. So I met with him this morning and he recommended no treatment! My PS is erring on the side of caution however and prescribing lovenox injections during and after surgery which makes me more comfortable.

My PS took all the time I needed to answer my questions and gave me her email in case I had any others come up. Her confidence is catching and I can't wait for my surgery.

I got all my prescriptions and post op instructions. My insurance covers up to 23 hours in the hospital so I'm staying overnight just to get used to myself before heading home to my little girls (with my new little girls!)

Yuck... I woke up this morning to a sore throat, itchy ears and a stuffy nose. Both kids have it too along with low grade fevers. I let my PS know and if no better in the morning she will call me in a z-pak. Please please please go away!
