Well today was the day I had been hoping for I received the call from the surgery center that my ins. Was approved!!! I had to get a mammogram for my ins. Other then that it was a pretty easy process minus waiting the 6 weeks to hear if I was approved. I have the surgery in 2 weeks from today. I feel like there is so much to do before the surgery.
The surgery is set for a Tuesday and my mom and I are putting on a bridal shower that Saturday. Any thoughts on how I might be feeling? Or if I will be up for tKing a drive 2 1/2 hrs to the cities?

Welcome to the community.  This is very exciting and I am happy to hear that you are approved.  The bridal shower will be pushing it a bit but can be done.  No lifting or over working yourself.  I won't kid you, but you will be pretty tired and wiped out the first 4-6 weeks.   Not really a lot of pain, more soreness and tightness.

Well now that this is starting to set into me and my family we are trying to prep for what is to come. Any advise would be helpful! I've been thinking a lot lately about my areoles as they are so large and I worry that it will be hard for me to just to having smaller areoles. I decided to add a few photos before as I feel so fortunate to have had other wonderful women on this site post there journey and I hope I can help some else. To bad they can't get rid of my stretch marks on my tummy! Oh well just the beauty marks of having kids I guess

Well I bought 2 button down Jammie sets for after surgery. I'm excited and nervous for the day to come. I booked our hotel room so we are set on that. We live about 2 hrs away from St. Cloud mn so I will have surgery get discharged the same day stay at the hotel for the night and then go back to the dr the next day tons e them re dress me and get fitted for a surgical bra and head back home. I'm trying to think of any thing else I should bring with besides Jammie's and a pillow. It seems crazy that this is actually happening. I still need to get my house in order! I'm just not sure how or what I will want!
