I went today 9/04/15 for my consultation for breast augmentation. I have always had small boobs a size 36A except when i breastfed i was almost a double D. I was licky and didnt end up with saggy boobs after but they shrank alot smaller than i began with. I went in today wanting and hoping for a large C cup result and my PS recommended 485cc in right breast and 435cc in left. I am 5'7 120# and i do not normally workout though i recently started 30 day ab challenge haha. Would like to hear from others what to expect? What supplies i shoud get before surgery and basically anything anyone woud like to share with me. Also i am a smoker and was told i had to quit now or he wouldnt go through with surgery. Anyone else that was a smoker if so what were complications and recovery time like for you? Thanks so much cant wait to join team big boobies :-) below are my wish [RS bleep]

Glad your consult went well and that you were able to schedule your surgery! Here is a helpful list of recovery supplies you may want to have on hand. And yes, don't mess around with the smoking...it can easily complicate your healing process. Get lots of pre op support on the smoking. ;)

Hi Alyssa, I had a good laugh when you said you were "licky" meaning lucky and did not end up with saggy boobs. I was licky too,lol! But I have to say I am exactly where you are, I have a clingy 4 year old (and clingy 6 year old) that love to hug me and that is going to be a challenge right there trying to explain why they need to hug my leg for a month,hahaha. I went from a perky 34B before pregnancy to a full D in my 3rd trimester, before breastfeeding, god knows how they were when they were full of milk and breastfeeding but after losing 65lbs and working at the gyms I was flat and limp, the density just changed, I always wished my breasts were bigger when I was younger but was consoled with the nice shape and perkiness. But, now everytime I go past VS I go in for underwear and walk past the beautiful bra section that just seems so out of reach for me, what's the point, padded looks padded, not the same. My husband wants to see lingerie and like you, I can't imagine what looks sexy on a flat chest.

My stats are a little different, I am 5'1 and 105lbs so I don't want to be top heavy and out of proportion, but also don't want boob greed. I previously consulted with 2 PS, and before was thinking more conservative with 325 or 350 cc but after reviewing and seeing so many boobie pix I am convinced that I should at least go to 400 because of going under the muscle, but I am short, I think taller people can have more, not really sure, your dr will take measurements and give you a range To think about. I most often hear arnica and bromelain are needed, some do pre and post op vitamins, I will. Then the dr has his antibiotics and pain meds they prescribe. I know others will disagree on this, but try to stop the smoking, my husband is a surgeon, I am a nurse and that is True of any surgery or healing process, there are so many things that can go wrong in the post op period, you are relying on your body's immune system to get you thru, just my two cents though. I booked a consult down here in Georgia with John Connors, heard great things about him already and results are amazing so I am excited, hoping for end of November operation :-)

Bahaha as soon as i posted i noticed the "Licky" but whatever its funny.. i am so nervous with my son its just me and his dad. His dad is a huge boss in union electricans so will be really hard for him to take off work.. my surgery is on a Wednesday so im joping he can take Thursday-monday off so i should be good then i may hire someone to help. My son likes to bounce on me and be held all the time so it will be a huge challenge but hopefully he doesnt cause me harm. My PS recommended 485cc nothing smaller than 435 for my height and frame and the look we have chosen and would like. I was a heavy smoker over a pack a day so far in a weeks time i have cut back to 3 cigarettes a day hopong by next week i will be completely nicotine free. I will not have surgery inless im at least a month nicotine free so its those nasty things or boobies.. i have literally printed pictures of my wish boobs and attached them outside to ashtray and all my smoking spots. I have never smoked indoors so it makes it a little better. I am beyond excited and good luck to you as well :-)

You can do it! :)

You can do it! I smoked a pack a day in high school and like any other drug, just the smell of it on someone else's breath would send me smoking, it is hard. But the weird thing is, once you have totally quit for a long time, it's been 15 yrs ago for me, believe me the smell of cigarettes will make you gag, it's crazy how your brain plays tricks on you, by my physical reaction to the smell you would think I never touched one, but your lungs can't stand it and it sends a message to your brain like a gag reflex. Just wanted to let you know, I am not judging, I did it too and it's hard to quit, but your body will love you for it. Although my husband will take the time off I can almost guarantee my idea of him taking care of the kids and his idea will not be the same, so I am not counting on him helping with the kids too much, just glad they are not 2 and 4 years old still, I don't know people do this with babies cuz my school age children still act like babies. They won't get out of my bed, so I am nervous about that too, gonna have to find a hideout to sleep in (sitting up of course). Are you hoping for a c or d afterwards?

Ultimately the deciding factor was this lingerie... photo below i bought ALOT of lingerie last month planning to do a boudoir shoot for my fiance of 11 years birthday November 6th. I tried these all on and felt absolutely horrible about myself. I am a confident girl always have been except my boobs. NOVEMBER 11TH cant get here soon enough.
