My Mommy Makeover Journey

ORIGINAL POST

So Excited!!!!

Nursesam29
WORTH IT$17,000
Let the count down begin! 45 days until my mommy makeover and I’m so happy, excited, and nervous. I am going to document my journey every step of the way. After seeing 8 different plastic surgeons, I finally settled on Dr. Patrick Basile in Jacksonville Beach. We are planning on a breast lift with silicone implants and a tummy tuck.
I’ve always been thick so I don’t want to look smaller; I just want my stomach flat like it was before I had my son (which was via a C-section).
I am 41 years old, 5’7” and 190lbs
So I will post some before pics.

Did you get it done? Feeling okay?

How much did this cost?
September 17, 2018
My surgery?
September 17, 2018
Yes

18k approximately. There’s also all the money you end up spending on supplies, scar treatments, wound care, compression garments and sports bras. Which actually adds up fast. It was worth it though, :)

Totally Freaking Out!!!

I look in the mirror and know how much I want to do this, and In the next breath, I’m terrified. What if it goes badly? What if I have complications? What if I made the wrong choice? It doesn’t help being a RN and knowing every possible bad outcome, ugh. Then, Today my husband said, that while he’s supportive, he’s afraid that me altering my body is like putting a mustache on the Mona Lisa. Nothing like some doubt to make it all worse.

You will o great! I am a nurse as well, and it’s so hard to jut rest your mind. I think that I obsessively worried before my mommy makeover on 5/21. Now being almost 2 months postop i am just trying to relax nd enjoy the mainframe results. You got this, and you were going to do great. :-)

Yes Yes Yes, I feel you on the emotional roller coaster. One minute I'm excited and the next scared outta my mind! I'm scheduled for 8/8 or my TT after consulting with three other PS and having been previously scheduled for 7/23 with another PS. Please tell how do you get off of this roller coaster.
