Hi Everyone!
I finally found the doctor, thru a friend referral, to get BA with and took the plunge on 12/29/15. After so much back and forth between sizes, I finally decided (literally the morning of surgery) to go with 345HP natrelle inspira silicone cohesive gel implants.

2.5 weeks post op and the results have been beautiful so far and I'm looking forward to them dropping, getting softer, and feeling like they're a part of me.

I can already see some dropping taking place in your 12 days op picture! You have great results and they're only going to get better. You might enjoy seeing how other December 2015 breast augmentation members are healing on this forum. Keep us posted as you continue to heal!

I'm also getting 345 but allergen mod. What were you ore BA? How was pain by end of week one?
January 16, 2016
What was I before? I was a 34A (or probably even a 34AA); As you can see from my before pics, I really had NOTHING lol!
The first 48 hours are the roughest. Luckily I had my amazing boyfriend (who is also a CRNA) by my side 24/7. After the first 48 hours and by the end of week one, the pain was definitely way less than the first 2 days but even 17 days post op, I still take some pain meds/ muscle relaxers but not as much. I'll write an update tomorrow!
When is your surgery?

You look great in such a short period of time it seems! I am getting Inspira on Feb 11 but have not decided on SRM or SRF or cc's. Which ones did you get? Just curious since you look great and feel we are somewhat similar in size. Looking forward to seeing your continued progress!

I got 345 SRF (which is considered the high profile). I should put that in my review title! =)

Congratulations on your new girls!! Your going to love the results. I have 365cc Natrelle inspira and after 4 months they look so natural. Happy healing!

Thanks Carollee! I was in between getting the 365ccHP natrelle inspira and the 345!

Just adding some photos taken Saturday 1/16.
I started with asymmetry so from the front it's noticeable. I also think my right boob is dropping faster than my left. Hope things will even out after a month post op!

Looks awesome. Mine dropped differently as well so it will catch up. My dominant side took longer. Maybe because I needed to constantly be aware of keeping my muscles relaxed in that side.

23 days post op follow-up

Just got back from another follow-up and literally broke down in tears when I started talking about recovery. I told my PS that I've been on the realself site (and left him a review of course) and how I feel like my recovery has been tougher than a lot of other women that have undergone BA in December. Tougher in the sense that the tightness I feel is unbearable at times and I still need some muscle relaxer meds to get me through the day (especially when I'm at work). Not taking any pain meds though.
He was super reassuring that everything with my recovery is going great and my new girls are healing as they should be. He says the tightness is more muscle tightness, especially on top, and taking NSAIDs or a muscle relaxer will help alleviate the tightness I feel.
He also showed me the massages I should be doing now, and that I should be doing them as often as I deem tolerable. With the snow storm coming up on the east coast, he says NO SHOVELING! haha! I'm leaving that up to the bf to handle.
Another positive note is that I can do some light cardio, no running, and I should practice slow stretching for the upper body since the muscles are tight and need to get stretched out. So slowly straightening arms to the side and back and putting my hands behind my head and pulling elbows back as far as I can without pain, a few times a day.
I felt really great leaving the appointment today, and again feel so great about picking the right PS!
Next follow-up is in 2 weeks.
I'll post pics probably tomorrow or this weekend!
Thank you all for the support thus far! xoxo

Forgot to add that he also trimmed down some of the steri-strips and removed some "fishing line" that was there, but my stitches are all the dissolvable.

It looks like you're going to have a beautiful result :-)
Having a BA is a pretty I emotional wobbly time for many, I know I cried like a baby several times trying to deal with it all - so I really feel for you!
You're over the worst, and with each week that passes you'll notice differences. I'm still seeing change in my 6 months post op.
Look forward to seeing your updates :-)
