favorite bra

I would have never, ever thought that I would fill out a bra like this. I never thought I would own a beautiful, lightly lined, lace bra either. Now look at me! This was my favorite of the bra shopping this weekend.

Bra fitting Review...multiple stores!

Ok, so I know I mentioned that I went bra shopping a few weeks ago. I have done several trips of bra shopping and MANY trips of bra returning. First I tried Aerie. I went with a full coverage bra, but it felt too matronly. I mean, come on, I have fake boobs! Some of it should show. So, I returned what I bought and went back to aerie. I found some demi cup bras in 34C. I really should have gone with 32C, but it was too tight. Once I wore it with something form fitting, I noticed I was over-filling the cup. I'm wondering if I really should have been a D in there? The times I went, the girls were REALLY busy. I think it would have been better on a different day when I could have gotten more individual time.

Then I tried Soma. I love their panties and have bought bras in my pre-BA day. The girl I got must have been new. She was a bit overly fake or friendly or something. She needed to be a bit more forceful in looking at how things fit, etc. So I bought a couple of ended up returning them.

At my 8 week check, Dr. B suggested my trying Dillards, Norstrom or Belk. Several of their patients have had GREAT luck with them. I tried our local Belk later that week. I couldn't get ANYONE to help me. I finally asked the girl at the counter, but she looked no more than about 21 and obviously irritated I had bothered her. No thanks! JCPenney was in the same shopping center. No one was in the department, so I just picked up a few to try. I was shocked they didn't care a single 32 anything! I was not about to go ordering anything online just to have to return a bunch again. All the 34s were way too big.

The next day we were in the neighborhood of Dillards. Thankfully my husband encouraged me to go in and try. The lady that helped me was AMAZING! I told her about my implants and immediately she knew what kinds of things to try and to stay away from. She said, "some things just won't fit you right now that you have had some work." She measured me, felt of me a bit and then went right to work to getting a few bras. She helped me get them on, adjust the straps and gave me some suggestions. Of the 6 she brought back to begin with, I ended up getting 2 of those. She was spot on for what I wanted and needed. I definitely paid a bit more there, but these are also going to last longer. And I think it's definitely worth getting something that fits so well (and looking pretty isn't so bad!). A friend of mine asked why I would spend that much when really I could probably go without a bra. I have never been able to buy a pretty, nice fitting bra! Yes, I splurged, but it feels wonderful to feel so sexy in a black lace bra! I know it sounds silly, but it's kind of empowering. And...when being measured, I was a solid 32D! I don't feel like a D at all, but the bras fit amazing. It's so nice to have an expert guide you in the right direction! Thanks, Dillards!

8 week post op visit

Let me say again, I LOVE Dr. Burgdorf and his staff. I love that they really know their patients and make you feel so comfortable. One thing that has been a bit complicated for me is getting to the appointments after the school day and having to bring my kids. Or maybe I should say, I perceived that it would be difficult. My kids are 5 and 7 and I'm not open with them about having my boob job. When the school year started back (I teach high school), after school appointments were the only feasible option. That meant the kids tagging a long. When I was talking out loud to myself the first time I was scheduling an appointment, Courtney, Tyrella and Sara were more than willing to keep an eye on my kiddos in the waiting room while I went back to see Dr. B. I mean, really??? Are they serious?? And serious they are!! It was so nice to know that the kids weren't a burden or unwelcome, even in the beautiful office. Dr. B himself welcomes the kids as he is open about having 4 young kids. My kids love going to the office there. The comfy couches are nice for kids after school to lounge on...lol. This past visit, it worked out that my husband had the kids instead of bringing them with me. The girls at the office were truly disappointed not to see the kids. It was so sweet...and uncommon to see kids treated that way! That is so beyond helpful and appreciated!

On to the visit. After a super short wait, Dr. Burgdorf checked out my progress. Everything is looking great! He answered all kinds of questions for me from bra fittings to the actuals of the surgery. I just love how at ease they are and really take their time. I go back in 4 weeks when I am 3 months post op. Excited to see how things will look even then!

From the initial consultation, I felt completely comfortable and at ease with Dr. Burgdorf. I researched about 6 other PS in the Nashville area looking at price, pictures, credentials, etc. Before scheduling my consultation, I had narrowed it down to Dr. Burgdorf and one other office. It all came down to reviews talking of his great bedside manner, conservative perspective, and ability to put patients at ease. It also sealed everything for me when the patient coordinator Tyrella followed up with amazing emails answering my questions...even over the weekend! I didn't feel like a bother and I felt like all my concerns were taken seriously. I also didn't feel a bit rushed. I have been to a consultation in the past and everything was rush, rush, rush. Dr. Burgdorf and staff were not that way at all. Dr. Burgdorf was fully involved in the process of sizing and wanted to see my reaction to different "sets." I chose to go with 350ccs. He was honest with his opinion and really helped calm any of my uncertainties. The process, risks, outcomes, etc were explained in detail by both Dr. Burgdorf and Tyrella. They were great to discuss the differences between implants and really help me come to a comfortable decision with gel implants...which I had believed I would go with saline prior to my appointment. After being a bit nervous starting my appointment, I am so excited to have this done! Even my husband was beyond impressed with the attitude of the office and staff. Now after having had my surgery, I am even more thrilled with Dr. Burgdorf! On the day of surgery, Dr. Burgdorf came in pre-op to talk about the procedure, answer any last questions, and add markings to my chest area. His calm and laid back demeanor is very contagious. The last minute nerves my husband and I were experiencing were really put at bay right before surgery. We had discussed going 300cc to 350cc. I really wanted to stay within a C cup range. After surgery, Dr. Burgdorf met with my husband to follow up about how things went and let him know he did go with the 300cc implant. The 350 would have put me in a D range. On my 5'3 petite figure, I was hoping to stay more natural looking. I was also thrilled with the Williamson County Medical Center that Dr. Burgdorf performs part of his surgeries. The staff in preop and postop were amazing! I have never had a recovery nurse be so attentive, caring and on top of things. I was so thankful he chose such a wonderful facility to operate in. While waking, he even stopped in to check on me before we headed out. During the recovery period, I received a phone call from the doctor checking to see how things were progressing. I can honestly say that in all the surgeries I myself, my husband or my 2 children have had, we have never received a personal phone call from the surgeon to see how we are doing. The extra things like this really set him apart from others. I had a couple of questions throughout the recovery days and they were very quickly answered via Tyrella, his patient care coordinator. If she didn't know right off hand, she was very timely in contacting Dr. Burgdorf for the information. As things are starting to settle in, I'm so excited with my new assets. I can't thank Dr. Burgdorf and his staff enough!
