One more thing...
WORTH IT$7,500
In terms of pain etc...pain is pretty much gone, but still have swelling and tightness in both breasts. And I'm still waiting for the day when I can sleep comfortably on my side. I am still having trouble getting comfortable and I hate sleeping on my back.

3 weeks post...looking great!
Well, I am three weeks post op and I have to say that I am loving my results! I did have to go back in today because I had a couple of stitches that were missed due to swelling and there was one spot on the right side that looked a little funny because of that. The nurse was so nice that called me back about my concern. At first I felt like calling wasn't necessary, but they assured me is was ok and that it was better to be safe than sorry. Started using Scar Guard today too. I totally forgot to do before playing pictures but here are a few now that all the steri strips are off.

I have had large breast for as long as I can...
I have had large breast for as long as I can remember! I have always been so self conscience about them, I hated buying clothes more than anything! I have two daughters, both of which I breastfed and that just made my breast so much worse! I finally decided to do something good for me with this BR!
My pre-op was 5 days before my procedure and it was a great experience. Went through medical history and finalized te size I desired. We also talked about what to do leading up to surgery and the day of surgery.
Showed up for my procedure on the 6th. I was super nervous, but so excited at the same time. This was a dream come true really. When I got there the nurse took my back right away and got my IV started and reviewed medical history one
More time. I also had to sign on the dotted line a couple more times. Within 30 minutes I was being wheeled back to te OR where Dr. Calobrace came in and did his surgical markings. At this point, it I was so excited this was finally happening!
I am now 14 days post and I am still have a fair amount of soreness and discomfort. I went for my 2 week post op today and met with the doctor. He said everything looked great and to now start using scar guard on my incisions. I have all my sitches out now but am covered with steri strips. Overall, I am ecstatic about my results, just ready to feel normal again! I go back in 4 weeks! I wish I had before photos. I for some reason didn't take any...duh! I will post some post pics soon.
