Hello Real Selfers....
So I finally decided to create my own "blog" on here after reading so many reviews. I have had 3 consultations - 2 with Doctors and one with a Nurse Consultant, and I am going back to one of them and this time bringing my husband along. If all goes well, I will be paying the procedure in full as the surgery date is Aug 4th!! eeeeekkk..... it's just a little over a week from today!
So, a little background about me. I am 41 yrs old, and have two kids. I have always been 'flat chested' and only had boobs when I was nursing my two babies. I knew that they would deflate back to original sz once I was done nursing, and they sure did. I am 5'3" and around 117 lbs at the moment. I have thought of getting BA for some time but never really seriously considered it until about 2 months ago. My husband is very much against it as he is afraid of the risks and complications and he feels they are not worth it. He is also concerned on what our kids will think but I told him that they are still quite young (7 and 6) and they may not even notice (this is what I'm hoping for). I have tried to talk to him about it but he doesn't even want to hear the details. Our appointment with the doctor is in two days and I just hope that he won't completely go ballistic as the doctor will have to be honest with him on the complications that could potentially arise. In my mind the risks and complications are very small, but in his mind no matter how small, they are still there and it's not worth it. so we will see.......
During my initial consultation, I tried on different sizers but it's so difficult for me to really visualize what they will look like. The office had a 3D imaging software and I saw what I could potentially look like in different sz implants. I liked 365cc and that's where we left it. My goal is to be a full C, perhaps a very small D, but definitely no bigger. I want to be enhanced but I really don't want the fake look. I think I'm going to considerable go smaller as I really want to achieve a natural look and I don't want to cause any more issues with me and hubby if I get supersize Tatas!!
I have attached a photo of the 3d imaging.
That's it for now. Will keep you posted with my journey

BA booked!!!!!
My BA surgery is booked!!!! Aug 4th and have to be there for 9:30AM. Surgery time is 10:00AM. Very excited and nervous at the same time. Hubby is still not on board. We met with the doctor and he asked some straight forward questions. Dr. Andrade answered them truthfully and honestly. Not sure if it made hubby feel better but he knows I've made up my mind. I just hope it won't impact our marriage. It's so difficult to talk to him about the procedure as I really want him to know what to expect - that it could take up to 6 months to "drop and fluff" - he thinks all BA's look very fake and boobs are hard to touch. We'll see I guess.....
The doctor I chose is Dr. William Andrade. He has very good reviews and rated #1 in the area. During my consult he was very professional and honest. I had additional questions and concerns which I sent to him over email - to which he took the time to answer them all and always responded very quickly, usually less than 24 hours I would hear back from him. His facility is also brand new and state of the art and very impressive - I have to admit this is what closed the deal.
Well..... I have just a few more days before my surgery date!!! So excited but really worried about recovery. I don't want to tell my kids that I'm getting it done but will have to tell them I'm getting something done as I will be very limited in what I will be able to do in the first few days. Sleeping is going to be an issue as we all co-sleep (my kids are 7 and 5). Would love to hear from fellow Moms on how you dealt with telling your children!!
I've decided with 335cc HP Allergan Natrelle Inspira smooth round cohesive gel. I'm hoping once it's completely dropped and fluffed it will provide me with a nice C cup. At the beginning I think it will give me a D cup but after swelling has gone down, I am hoping for a nice full C.
My stat:
- 5'3"
- 117lb
- 12cm bwd
- 41 yrs
- 2 kids
- Pre-op sz: 32AA
- BI: 335cc HP Allergan Natrelle Inspira smooth round cohesive gel
- post op sz (hoping for) 32C, after completely dropped and fluffed

Hi there! I am 12 days post op and am feeling so much better! Let me tell you...I was not prepared for the amount of pain I was going to be in the evening of surgery and the following day. Just being honest I felt like I had been ran over by a train and left for dead lol I was on Loratabs, Valium and one other narcotic yet still in an unbearable amount of pain. Everyone is apparently different so it could be completely opposite for you. I'm starting to wonder if the sizing of my implants have played a role. I was a small C cup after breastfeeding my toddler for three long years. I choose 750cc high profile silicone implants. Due to the size I have just wondered if I possibly wouldn't have been in so much pain had I not gone that large. Regardless, I'm happy with the size and glad I didn't size down. Be prepared to have your hubby do everything for at least the first week. I just have been able to get out of bed in the last 4 days by myself. Today is the first day where I've had my appetite back and actually eaten three meals. Day 2-3 I threw up everything! Day 4-5 I drank Gatorade and ate saltine crackers. Within the past 2-3 days I've finally been able to help prepare dinner, do a few household chores etc. as long as it doesn't require bending down far, like leaning over to pull clothes out of my top load washer. As far as your children go, I wouldn't be afraid to tell them what you are having done. I shared with my 3 year old and she has been such an angel and has wanted to play doctor on me. I just flat out told her mommy is getting new boobies. We in fact co-sleep and she has learned she can't lay on me or crawl all over me like she's used to. It has made me sad somewhat because I haven't been able to hold her or love on her like I'm use to but her and my husband have really bonded. Don't be ashamed or feel like to have to keep it a secret. I paid good money for them and am going to be proud of them lol I've even told all my girlfriends! Best of luck on recovery! It's a daily change and I'm so anxious for week 6, as that's when my surgeon said you really see the full results although that can take up to a year.

Bra and blouse for post op
So excited coz I found a great bra today for my post op. I'm getting a surgical bra from the doctor but I figure i will probably need another one while the other is in the wash. I found this Genie Bra, wire free with zipper front closure!!! And at $9.00 - you just can't go wrong!!!!! :) thought I'd share the excitement!!! LOL!!! lil' things make me happy!!!
Well my surgery day is coming up fast and furious!!!! I'm driving myself crazy thinking should I change the size I decided on! But kept reminding myself that modest and conservative is the goal. Hope I at least end up with a C cup after the girls have fully dropped and fluffed!
I'm going for 335cc HP under the muscle round smooth cohesive gel Natrelle Inspira. My Stat: 5'3"; 117lbs; 12cm bed. Current cup sz: 32AA. hope the cc's I've chosen will give me at least a C cup.
Thanks ladies!!!!! Have a great day y'all!!!!! :) :)

I am divorced and my boyfriend is supportive, but not thrilled either. He says he likes me the way I am. I have second guessed myself repeatedly over the past few weeks, but feel strongly it is "now, or never!"
Keep in touch!
