26 Years Old, 5'3", 125 Lbs, Breastfed 2 Kids. Morehead City, NC
I'm finally at a point in my life where I'm ready...
Now that I'm able to, and maybe I'm just anxious and nervous.. But I also feel selfish for doing something for myself and taking a risk.
Here is a photo of my current boobs. I didn't realize how uneven they were until I took pictures of myself =\ which made me feel a little bit more insecure.
Excited, nervous, scared.. All of the above!
So few days ago, my left boob has been so tender and sore. It doesn't help that I googled and I definitely came to the conclusion that I'm just psyching myself. When I woke up it was tender and here I was freaking out like is it a clogged milk duct? But I haven't breastfed in so long! I jumped in the shower and ran hot water on it to see, nothing was coming out of my boob so I'm like ok crossed that off the list. I finally figured out that my period is due in the next week, and remember that my boobs do get tender/sore beforehand. Wheew!
Today I had my preop routine exam. I didn't expect it, but since I have asthma history the anesthesiologist needed me to do the testing to make sure all is well. Had my blood drawn, chest X Ray, and ekg. I doubt my insurance will cover those tests since it's an elective surgery so just a little thought to anyone just in case.
Hopefully the results are fine. And if all goes well, I'll be getting a call tomorrow on what time I need to go in on Thursday.

I've always had small breasts growing up. I did...
I've always had small breasts growing up. I did ballet for so many years, but after quitting and living a normal life it made me insecure about my breasts. I remember how long it took me to show my now husband my breasts, and I wouldn't even shower with him because I was embarrassed. I used to wear the super padded bras to create an illusion that I had nice breasts.
After breastfeeding my second child, it just got worst. The left one was a cup bigger than my right. While I was breastfeeding though, I went up to a full C cup and loved the way my boobs looked! That's when I decided I would go for it and do something that I've always wanted. At first I felt selfish because I'm finally doing something for myself and my children are my world, but it's only been a few days and I'm still healing.. I couldn't be any happier!
