CLEAVAGE update!
Hi. So here's my update!
I have cleavage! This was a fun discovery. One night I'm lying on my side in the bra and notice I have cleavage!! They must have softened up. I don't have it naturally, in fact they are usually pretty wide apart and I got nervous about whether I would ever be able to move them, but nice to see I can achieve some natural cleavage without bras! As long as I am laying on my side - for now :)
My doctor had said with textured implants that they are firmer and I shouldn't expect them to soften up too much, and they are WAY softer than when he said that. Which makes me happy.
I don't know if my boobs were like this before, but one is definitely bigger / more fuller than the other. I don't think I can do anything about it, but it's just something I have noticed and doesn't seem to be changing.
even though my boobs feel normal looking to me, sometimes when I take pictures the nipples point down? and I see so many others on this site pointed straight ahead. I don't know if it's because that's what happens during d&f, or someone else is taking their pic, or mine are just weird :)
I have gone out lots, never in a tank top, but v-necks, etc.. and so far none of my friends have noticed ANYTHING. Ok, so the shirts are not tight, but it's amazing how much I can hide them in clothing. This makes me happy since everyone here (on this site) knows I've been fretting about the size. However, I love to walk around in tanks, etc.. and until I get some bras (as of now, still just surgical bra), I can't do that in front of people without it feeling mega obvious. Again I have told no one - just one best friend, one sis in law, my dad (when i was ill), and my bf. And that's all that will know if i have my way! I don't hang around people that will be very approving, and many have big mouths!
So far haven't seen the bf, and it's been almost 7 weeks! I just mailed him a bunch of bras (all 32DD and 34D's) so he will be bringing me my salvation! My sis in law thinks I'm crazy and should send them ALL back and I'm wasting my money, and that I should just go to someplace local here, regardless of cost and get properly fitted and get bras, even if they end up being very expensive. She says I am throwing money away buying stuff online site unseen. She's probably right. I am already returning $120 worth of bras from VS that I bought size 34C, anticipating i would be a C and not a DD!! But these other bras cost like $120 total for like 5 or so, so I'm going to get them anyway to test out different brands and sizes... I do want to be able to order stuff and know how different brands fit My sis in law is like yOu spent $5k on the boobs, now you are going to skimp??? I don't know why but sometimes the small items seem so hard to splurge but the operation itself I didn't give much thought to cost :)
I massage usually every night. Lather up with some oil (as you will see in pics) and poke the boobies for as long as I have patience for on each side. It's a bit uncomfortable, but the massing actually brings relief.
I have been to the gym a few more times, and can participate in most, but have not gone up to max speed on the treadmill.
This is going to sound CRAY CRAY but I feel like I can get fatter now to accommodate my boobs. Like I Feel like I can't be skinny anymore unless I downsize (hence the serious consideration), so therefore, I should be bigger to match them. Ok I'm probably overtired and joking, but I definitely don't feel skinny anymore, and I felt skinny 8 weeks ago. I'm wider on top now, and that was my skinny part.
Can you look at my pics and tell me if one boob has dropped before the other, or if it's actually just smaller?
I know this is also crazy, but I am actually getting the point where I might forget they are there for a few minutes. Especially when I'm out in a comfy bra, concealed with clothes around people who don't know. The odd times when I completely remember are when trying to shake something, open a can, etc.. - that's harder than running on a treadmill!
Anyway, so tired gnite!

NIGHTMARE, for real! and my real reasons (all 3) for getting this done.
So last night before sleep, after 2 days of cleaning my house and no issue, I lean over to get something and feel something 'pop' in my left breast. I pull back quickly and start freaking out. What did I do? Did I just pull something from the pocket?
I get in bed and open up the ipad, and start searching for bottoming out, because that's my latest neurosis. I mean I think maybe I am not positioned right, and maybe I pulled something to aggravate it. Meanwhile it's 2 am, and I'm exhausted, but I read several doctors answers, and I must have dozed off. While I'm sleeping, I imagine that my left boob (that popped), has actually all fallen out in my hand. The whole thing, top to bottom as if it's something we just glue on. I drive an hour away to see the doctor, and everyone is being so mean to me. They say it's monday, we can schedule you for revision on Sunday. I start to see the right side fraying from the edges, getting ready to unglue as well. I'm sooo worried here, and annoyed that I'm gonna have to wait until Sunday and go through all this pain again.
Then I force myself to wake up because it was all so horrible. It was so real, that I was surprised to see my boobs still attached to my chest.
Anyway, It's been a month. My gym membership has been unfrozen, but I have yet to make it there. I just did some arm lifts with about 7 pound weights, and some lunges - totally nothing major. But I really can't imagine doing so much upper body workout yet.
Due to my bruising I have a longer recovery, so don't want to have more moments of flipping out. I still don't know what I popped, but hope it alls good in there.
I am still feeling a tightness, but my major complaint is still about my new girth. I mean I only weigh 122 pounds and am 5"6, so I'm thin but how can you really be thin with such a RACK up top.
Can I be a bit personal, for anyone actually still reading? I did this for myself for my self confidence, because I was sick of 2 things:
1) my ribs sticking out further than my boobs. My ribs still stick out, it's just how my body is built, but not further
2) I always looked stupid in shirts, because my stomach, which is not fat by any means, but still - every now and then bloats, or has reminiscences of the 4 children that were in there - well my belly would stick out further than my chest. I felt like I wanted the boobs to allow the chest to carry the job of the top of the shirt, and not force me to hold my breath all day long, or look like crap.
and the personal part - I have a bf, but he has been overseas all this time. So it's been over 2 months since we've seen each other, and now 1 month I have these and nothing. I wont see him for another month. I'm FINALLY beginning to get excited to try these out, and now I'm so upset that he's so far away. Btw - my reason 3 for these is because I see them as being the most expensive sex toy I could buy. He doesn't say it, but i KNOW he's a boob guy. he's constantly looking at me in my push ups and my cleavage at moments of intimacy, using that to give him excitement. So I am looking forward to seeing what happens now, when I can add a push up to this major boobs!! or just wear them alone.
Hard to find anyone saying anything more than "hubby loves them too". I just discovered with this guy that my nipples are extremely sensitive (in a good way). I can't believe i never knew this while with my ex, but probably mostly due to nursing a lot. So I really hope that I have those sensations still. I would feel like I sacrificed my pleasure for his! Meanwhile I still can't wear a seatbelt properly, so it's probably best he is still away.
So I am in a state of hoping they settle, and trying not to think of next steps. Forget the money, I don't have the luxury of taking off the days necessary to actually have a revision, if I wanted. Praying i don't have any reason to need...
Best of luck ladies, speak soon. !

Measuring - HOLY SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
I finally went out and bought a soft measuring tape
According to 2 sites - http://www.sophisticatedpair.com/bracalculator.htm and http://www.lindasonline.com/bra-fitting-calculator.html
I am a 32 DD/E or 32 FF ...
according to this one http://www.atlastravel.nazwa.pl/mini/
I am a 32DD
I wanted a C, this is crazeballs!
And then if I actually do what some sites recommend and lean over 90 degrees and measure with the boobs pointing down, the numbers are like 32G
And this is funny, cuz I've been wearing 34's for the past years figuring I got wider post babies.
According to this site though - http://www.85b.org/bra_calc.php, I'm a 34B. hahahahahahahahahahaha.
