It’s Really Happening!
Hi all! I am a mom of six and finally through with having any more children. Although I dread looking at my body from all of the pregnancies and breastfeeding I would do it all over again if I had to. It took me a long while to book this surgery not just due to finances but just the fact of feeling a bit guilty for spending this money on “me”. But ladies, we have to feel good about ourselves and WE are WORTH it. Being a mom is a 24/7 job, we never clock out, we never get a day off, no vacation days, sick days etc. So if you’re up in the air about getting this done and feel guilty, don’t feel that way. I’ll post as much as I can up to and after my procedure! I’m having breast lift, breast augmentation, TT, lipo of flanks!

6 days more days!
Finally letting me add a picture! I’ll upload more when it lets me. As I count down the days I’m becoming more and more anxious! I’ve even thought about backing out a couple of times. But I’m not, I want to do this for several reasons.

The nerves are getting to me too but girl we are going to be so much more confident after we go through with this! Prayers for you!

Oh my gosh you're so close!!! I'm 23 days out from my TT, BL, and BA. It's coming so fast, one minute I'm ready and excited then the next I'm freaking out and so scared. This is all normal and there is no way I'm backing out! You'll do great and your results will be amazing!! I'll be following your journey. I just posted a few before pics. Praying for our perfect and quick healing.

Oh you're so close, I'm so excited and happy for you. I too have no idea what size implant. I'm 5'2" and weigh 142lbs, I'm working hard and eating right but I have not been able to get below 140. My ideal weight is 135lbs so I'm almost there. I'm thinking of 350cc low or moderate profile silicon gel. I don't like the protruding look of high profiles I prefer full but flatter breasts. I'm hoping Dr Vath and his staff will be able to help me. I have lots of pictures of what I would like my results to look like so hoping that helps us choose the right size and shape. Praying for your perfect surgery and results/healing.

Dr. Vath will make you beautiful! I don't think I've ever seen any bad results from him. Results really all base on bwd. That helps guide the PS with size etc. I have a BL/BA review that I been updating for almost 4 years now. I had some healing issues, did my first MRI, a few mammograms and lots of talk/posts of bras & big b@@bs! Check it out sometime. Good luck sweetie.
May 25, 2021
I’m the same way, thinking moderate profile but just don’t want to get them too big or too small. Thank you for your prayers! I’ll post pics as I’m able after surgery. I know this may sound weird but I’m nervous about coming out of anesthesia for some reason.
May 25, 2021
No doesn't sound weird at all. Have you ever been put under? I've been put under twice before, once for my wisdom teeth (all 4 were impacted) and once to have a breast access removed (infection developed while breast feeding my 2nd child). I remember just being really out of it, no headache or nausea either time but I know my doctors gave me anti nausea meds with both procedures. Make sure you ask for medication to help prevent nausea upfront right away, do not wait until you're already getting sick, women say that's the worst after surgery issue. I know signing the paperwork before being put under made me cry but I was very hormonal could've have been due to postpartum issues. You'll do great we'll be praying for you here. I'm so excited for you. I can't wait to see what and type of implant you choose. What is your height and weight now? Hope you don't mind me asking.
May 26, 2021
I have been out under once for my endometriosis and another time for my wisdom teeth but both were only for about an hour max. I guess it’s just the length of time I’ll be under is what makes me nervous. But I will definitely ask for anti nausea meds up front, I would’ve never thought of that but would hate to throw up after a tummy tuck. Ouch!! I am 5’5” and weight 135, think I’m a 36 B now.
May 27, 2021
Yeah I totally understand , the length of time for these procedures is scary but we'll do great!! With your height and weight you're going to look fantastic!! I think 350 will be perfect but you want bigger go for it. I'm thinking 300cc for myself. Prayers for perfect procedure and recovery.

Welcome to RS! It's an exciting journey your about to partake in. Here's a bit of info I found helpful along the way. Results vary based on bwd, skin elasticity, anatomy, stats and your PS surgical abilities. 300cc can look huge on one person and small on another. I recommend trying on sizers with a tight shirt to see exactly how they will look with your frame. Most Dr. on the Q&A forum state for every 150cc you "should" increase one cup. Let your Board Certified PS guide you as they have plenty of experience with implants. Sometimes when ladies try telling the PS what they think is best and not listening to his/her recommendations, it can end disastrous. Bring a few wish pictures to show the Dr. your end goal. Don't go by bra/cup size because all manufacturers have different sizing. Remember if going behind the muscle, you will lose about 10-15% from being compressed. The day after po, your boobs will look small from being compressed. Don't let that discourage you bc I was like what?!? But after d&f things get bigger & better! I hope this bit of information has helped you out. Good luck and keep us updated.
May 26, 2021
That was extremely helpful!! Things I never thought about like under the muscle taking away from some of the projection. That really helps! Thank you and I’ll definitely try and post soon after post op!

I had my TT/lipo hips and flank with MR done May 12th so just ahead of you! The first week is pure hell (sorry but can't sugar coat my experience ;) but after that, so much better and now I'm sooo happy with my results at DPO 15 (you can check my review if you're curious on seeing how the stages of healing goes).
I'll be checking in on your review and sending you lots and lots of healing vibes your way:)!!
May 27, 2021
Thank you! I just looked at your reviews and your results are amazing!! I hope mine are as good!
May 28, 2021
Thinking of you and praying all went perfectly and you are officially on the flat side. Rest, heal, and recover.
