I've never had a very large chest, but always a respectable 36B/C. I had my son at 32 and nursed him for 14 months. Shortly after weaning, I lost a lot of volume. I recently lost about twenty pounds and have just about nothing left! I started thinking about breast augmentation two years ago and said, "Well, if I still want to do it next year, I'll do it." That year came and went and I was still unhappy. Ultimately, after I lost the weight and started taking really good care of my body, I became increasingly frustrated with knowing I was never going to be able to fix my breasts through diet or exercise. This summer I started really considering it and talking to my husband, who has been incredibly supportive throughout the process. He says he loves me the way I am, but supports my decision too. Now that the surgery date is set, he's enjoying helping to choose my "wish pics" and talking about what I envision for size. ;) Here are my before pics and current stats. I'm getting silicone unders, but haven't settled on a size yet. I'd like to end up at a full C, small D (something manageable still for running and workout out.) I'm 5'4", 130 pounds, and have a current bra size of 34AA.
Wish Pics
I've been thinking a lot lately about the size of the implants I'd like to get. When I first met with my PS at the initial consultation, I said is like to be a full C. But now I'm thinking I should tell him more of a small D so I don't suffer from "boob envy" (a term I learned quickly reading the reviews here!) Has anyone had success making the rice sizers and having the results come out similar after surgery? I might try some tonight... Also, I told one of my gym friends today about the surgery. She was super supportive and great about the whole thing. She was understanding and even said, "You don't have to justify this to anyone." Totally agree!
In the meantime, here are a few pics I'll show my PS. I think I'm going to (jokingly) say, "Let's pretend you're entering a contest for world's best breast augmentation. And go!" ;)

Rice sizers!
450ccs???? Way bigger than I originally thought I'd go with, but I decided to make some rice sizers and try them on. Yikes! It's been a couple of years since I had my nursing boobs and I forgot what having them felt like! I put the sizers into one of my nursing bras, and yep, they used to be that big (if not bigger)! I tried them on with a bathing suit, bras, and tank to get an idea of what life would be like. I'm also keeping in mind that I'm going under the muscle and will lose some volume to that. Am I keeping it suburban mom classy or have I crossed over into showgirls territory? Do you think I'll have boob envy and should go larger?
