Ever since I became pregnant my back was always something causing me pain, I knew a lot of it had to do with my large breasts. I'm 5'2 125 lbs with 500cc breast implants. I thought there was nothing I could do. After successfully breastfeeding my baby (was nervouse since I had implants through my nipples at 19) I started researching about 5 months into breastfeeding because I was so uncomfortable and found it hard to fit into clothing. I went in with no expectation of getting my implants removed because most of what I read- that no dr will touch you if you are breastfeeding-. When I spoke to the receptionist on my initial call (and I told her I was breastfeeding) she said she would call me back after speaking with the dr. Not 30 mintues later she contacted me, making an appointment so we could discuss our options. I went in thinking nothing could be done at the time but when Dr. Richards came in he was very warm and inviting and in the end told me he could do it and in fact, could do it that day!!! I was a little apprehensive because it was so fast but, I knew I wanted this done. They explained to me the procedure showed me the room and reassured me that this is not an uncommon procedure. I came back 2 hours later to have the procedure done. It took about 30 minutes they were very professional and made sure I was comfortable the entire time ( I didn't take any Valium or like drugs because I am breastfeeding) they wrapped me up and I went home after a nice hug and congratulations from Dr . Richards. He text me 2 days later to check in me, even though he was on vacation! He's great! And my baby know no difference. I am so so happy I did this. I feel better about myself and physically my aches and pains have gone away- no more back and neck pain! I cannot express how happy I am with my explanation experience!

looking good. Amazing to think you just saw the surgeon on the day and he was then able to do it. I am so excited to have mine out I have just 2 more weeks to wait.

Thank you! I'm SO excited for you! At least with the time you have you can get some bras and such in advance- I had to scour my closet and search around for bras that would fit best for my needs- I found one great sports bra if you are interested in the information. It's a wire free sports bra, I love how secure it makes everything. Or if you have any suggestions i would love to hear!
