23 year old mom of 3 needs a mommy makeover

Right now I'm trying to save to get a mommy makeover! I've been considering a BA for a while now but after having twins, I'm going to need a BA and a full tummy tuck. Hopefully not too much longer! I had one consultation with Dr. Reedy in Reading, but it didn't go well. They made me feel embarrassed with the way they were talking about my body. Maybe it was just me. But it's a sensitive subject and they were very harsh, in my opinion! But anyway, I decided to give it another try, so I have another consultation in a couple weeks. Hopefully it goes better and I can proceed to scheduling my surgery! I will update as I go. ????

Things have changed!

So I went to my second consultation a couple months ago, which went alot better. I was told that to get the best results, I would need a lift with an augmentation so I was kind of upset about that. But! After talking with Dr. Guarino, I trust that he knows what will give me the best results. I decided I don't want to do the tummy tuck AND a breast lift with augmentation all at once because I really don't have the money to be missing work for a few weeks AND pay for all the procedures. It was kind of scary thinking of doing it all at once anyway!

So, I have my pre-op appointment on the the 10th and then my surgery is scheduled for September 12th!! I'm nervous, but I'm also very excited!

Ok so it's paid for and all set up for September 12th between 6am and 8am. They said they call the day before and let you know the exact time. I got my pre op instructions and now all there is to do is wait. I hope it goes by fast! I'll be working alot these next couple of weeks so something tells me it'll fly by!

I was torn between saline and silicone and of course on the size. I don't want anything big or fake looking. I was a 34C before children and after my set of twins and losing 45 pounds, I'm down to an A cup ='( ... I was actually thinking I only wanted 200cc-250cc but I ended up deciding on 300cc natrelle saline implants with a lift. He said that 300cc is about a cup and a half, so I should end up with a large B cup or maybe back to C? We'll see! I think it will be a good size for me and I dont think there's any way I'll think it's too small. I'm worried it might be a little too big and people will notice, but I'm trusting my doctor and his staff that it'll be the right fit for me! I'm so exciting! Three weeks from tuesday! Counting down the days!
