I initially wanted a BA before kids- I'm naturally small. I waited till after kids and still wanted the procedure done but I wanted to wait until I was over my self-loathing; I wanted to accept myself and not care what other people at the nude beach thought.
Two years ago I came to that point. I scheduled three consults, but didn't act. I did a 180 and decided I liked my boobs as-is, no surgery.
I am back to considering a BA (we will have to put off buying a house for a few MORE years...). I am happy with myself, I have figured out what I'd like to achieve with a BA-
1) I would like my breasts full enough to support my nipples. As it is now they fold in/over when covered by bra or bikini.
2) I would like to fix the empty baggie look when I bend over.
My husband found Dr. Pousti through RealSelf and the consult is scheduled.

Wow, you and I sound alike with our issues. I too have nipples that get folded into the skin after wearing a bra for a while. Also ditto about their appearance when bending over. My surgery is tomorrow. Yay! Much luck to you in your BA future!

Also, I'm surprised he wanted to do a lift on you. Personally I don't think you need one. I have more of a fold than you and my doc said I could get away without having one and do really well as long as I didn't go too big. He will use the Mentor 375cc HP silicone for me.

You're awesome. I think going in with that mindset where you're not hating your body is key. I have come a long way too and love my body. I even love my small perky A's at times. But I want them to look fill and voluptuous, as that is what I find sexy and it will make me feel like a million bucks. You're an inspiration to many because I think the key to surgery like this is not to be going in thinking you'll change all your self-perceptions, but that you'll enhance your natural beauty and feel more comfortable as the already beautiful and unique woman God made you. Koodos, seriously!

I scoured tumblr for some images that will help give my PS direction while I'm on the slab. Most of them are a little larger than I'm hoping for but I'm hoping they are all similar enough in shape and volume and rise and elevation.

I've been so busy gathering guidance photos for my PS. I know I don't want upper fullness, roundness, gravity defiers, or high profile. Do I want boobs at all? Haha. Sometimes I do stop and think, what am I spending our money on? I've been able to answer that doubt confidently- It's a restorative surgery and I'm ready.
I've also collected a few "please don't let me wake up looking like this" photos.
