saline HP 400/410cc-Post BA breastfeeding

So I've pretty much always been flat chested or small breasted my whole life minus a couple of moments related to pregnancy and breastfeeding. My mom had a nice natural set but my sister and I of course inherited the "no boobs" from our dad's side. While I always kind of wished to have a larger chest it never really mattered that much to me. My older sister at 19 or 20 decided to get breast implants and no longer be flat chested. I have to admit I was pretty pissed at her for doing so. I loved her the way she was and couldn't understand why she would go under elective surgery. Now I feel bad that I was so hard on her (at least in my mind I was-can't remember how much I actually said to her 10 years ago) since I'm pretty much set on it minus a few things including having the surgery. So since then I've graduated college, gotten married, had 2 children, gone to graduate school, and moved all in the last 10 years. We have 2 sweet and active young children-toddler and PK4/5 age. We are done having children and the effects of 3 years of combined breastfeeding 2 kids wasn't great on my small B sized chest. I'm now in the A/AA range. :-( I would just love to be the size I was when pregnant with my second child-a nice full B/small C. I don't want huge boobs, just enough to feel a little more womanly. My husband is supportive of whatever I want to do and says he loves me just the way I am. I think he is excited about the prospect of "sweater kittens" as he calls them but doesn't want to sway me really in anyway.

My new primary care doctor heard a heart murmur and long story short had an EKG and echocardiogram to make sure I don't have any heart issues. Cardiologist today told me I have a benign murmur that should not interfere with my quality of life or lifespan. Hallelujah! He cleared me for cosmetic surgery though he told me I didn't need it in his opinion-which of course made me wonder if I'm going down the right course. I don't want to regret if I have some crazy complication or bad experience just to make myself feel a little more womanly. I am hoping and praying that this isn't going to ruin a good thing-even though they are small, they are still nice/cute/little boobs.

I'm trying not to be obsessed about all this but since I haven't gotten a new part-time job as we just moved, I have a little more time on my hands. Surgery won't be for a while so my husband who is in the military can arrange his work schedule to take off to take care of our kids.

I'm planning on doing the surgery in Miami as my sister lives there. Mainly I can recuperate without the kids trying to jump on me or try to do too much too soon. It is also a more competitive price vs the cost of where I live. I hope that 11 days apart from my kids isn't going to be too hard-I've never been away from my toddler more than 8 hours at work and a week from my preschooler.

I want a natural look so I'm trying to decide between moderate or moderate-plus profile. I've seen some nice HP results but I'm a pretty modest person and don't want cleavage all the time. My doctor mentioned 400CC going under the muscle and I've selected saline because I feel it is safer, don't want to have to have MRIs every few years, and it is easier to drain them prior to removal (if I ever wanted to do that) and to see how the skin reacts to no implants. I would love to be a small C and am cautious that 400cc might get me into D land. I will have my pre-op the day before and go back over what I want. Ultimately the final amount will be what my body can handle and my surgeon thinks will give me the best advice.

My spouse was so happy about the surgery clearance that he found me a cheap flight from Baltimore to Miami area for $100 round trip! :-)

So I finally got up the gumption to pay my deposit towards my BA surgery. Still scheduled for 11/12/13 (that will be easy to remember!). Well, off to bed!

While I've looked at other sites that are similar I think RealSelf is more user friendly. Visually it is more pleasing and I am able to see pictures users post without having to be a member-which depends in if admins think you are worthy enough. Thanks for all the feedback to everyone who has responded to my posts. Hoping I can help someone else in their journey in the future.

I'll be posting some wish pics and a couple more before later when I get on my PC.
