I have never had nice boobs. Two pregnancies and two breastfed babies later and I absolutely hate my boobs. I have finally decided to take the plunge and get a lift with implants. My date is set for November 2. I haven't committed to a size yet but when I went for my consult, I liked 375cc. I go on October 21 for my pre-op and my girlfriend will help me decided on the size for sure. I want them to be big enough to make the surgery worth it, but I don't want to be "that girl" that people look at and all they see is boob.

I had my pre op appointment today. We decided on 400 cc high profile silicone implants. I am getting more and more excited but more and more nervous every day. It's getting real!

Day of treatment

It's over

Surgery went well, or so they said. I'm home and resting. The pain was a little worse than I anticipated, even with the pain pump. I really didn't want to have to take Percocet but I gave in and I'm so glad I did. I'm starting to feel a little more normal.

Ugh. I have no choice but to take it easy. Just walking to the bathroom and back takes it all out of me. I get so dizzy.

Are U taking the nausea medicine?
November 3, 2015
I've taken it a few times. The last time I took the Percocet, I took the zofran too but I didn't have enough food on my stomach. That was not fun. I was just able to get up to pee and empty my drains and wash my hands all in the same trip. That's the longest I've been able to stand up all at once. Hopefully that keeps up.

Yeah Im right there with you. They don't lie when they say it feels like an elephant on your chest...whew. But it does get better. I find the Valium helps relax those muscles and it's not as tight. Did ur doc prescribe you those?
November 3, 2015
No muscle relaxers. I feel like they would help too. If nothing else, they would let me sleep. I'm only sleeping bits and pieces at a time.

Maybe you can ask your doc to call in a prescription for you.

No. There's nothing to really take pics of yet. Just a big compression bra.

Do U have drains and pain pump? what is ur pain level
November 3, 2015
Yes I have drains and the pain pump. I would hate to see how bad this hurts without the pump. I'm fine as long as I lay still but getting up hurts underneath my boobs, like in the upper abdomen area. And my arms and back are really stiff from laying in the same position all day.

Hubby helped dress me and wash me. We went to Walmart and to a restaurant. I could not eat much. I just ate a half piece of toast and I order a fruit salad but I brought it home with me
