WORTH IT$6,700
Looking to get some advice for my BA this Friday. This is the first time I will ever have had surgery done so any advice for pre and post care would be greatly appreciated. I've followed the list of things my Dr has provided me to prep for surgery. I've read so much online I'm a little overwhelmed of all the information to remember. I'm getting saline implants 380cc IMF under the muscle. I'm 34A will post before pictures soon. Thank you

Do you know which profile and type of implants you will be receiving?

I ended up getting high profile Allergan saline 360cc. I have a small frame, Just took the bandages off and they already look good and can't wait for them to drop

Prepping for surgery best I can. Going to fill out my prescription today and I already have care set up for this weekend to care for me and also my husband took off the week to help me with the kids and when I'm back from the weekend from my caretaker. Hoping to recover quickly. I have a 1.5 yr old any suggestion on how to get him out of his crib a week post op? My husband will be at work by then and not to sure If I'll be able to take out my 28 pound little one.

If it's possible to get a friend or family member to come and help you, that would be best! I know most surgeons don't want their patients lifting anything over 5-10 pounds for a couple of weeks. Good luck with your surgery! I'm excited for you :)

Definitely get some help otherwise sleep your little one on your bed with you for a few weeks? Or maybe get DH to life your little one out and lay him/her with you before he heads to work and hope he/she stays asleep!?
Good luck!
Good luck!

Thank you... I didn't think of that. We will do a test run of having him sleep with us before hand. He's never slept with us so hopefully it will work out.

Finally did the surgery DAY ONE
Just had my BA done today, I ended getting 360cc high profile completely under the muscle. Went into the surgery center and finished signing all the paperwork. Went into the back did my vitals and they inserted the IV and I spoke to my anesthesiologist who was very nice :) DR Cruise came in after and spoke with me regarding everything and wanted to go over again the results I'm looking for. I sent him pictures of work that I would like similar results to. He had them with him and made me feel very comfortable. There is just something about him and he's just so wonderful. I had my surgery in the morning at 7:30am and took about two hours and it's now 8pm and I'm feeling great. I haven't had any pain I've been current on my meds But I don't feel any soreness and I don't feel any pressure on my chest like some ppl get as if they can't breathe which i was worried about. Only feeling I had was like cramping on one side of my back by my shoulder blades as if I was laying down awkward but it's gone now Im hoping to continue to feel good and recover quickly. I haven't really been using my arms to do anything of course. And I've been walking around every hour. Haven't had much of an appetite. I was told to not have anything solid a few hours after my surgery so I went to get some smoothies. Trying to Pick up my sweats to use the bathroom after surgery was a little uncomfortable so I needed assistance for that which was a few times till about 8hrs later and It's easier now to lift my pants up as long as they are loose. My throat wasn't hurting from the tube which is great. I was really scared before the surgery and the pain. But I'm really happy how everything turned out pain and recovery so far. I'm really excited to get the bandages off and get fitted for my bra tomorrow. Going to sleep soon and hoping the Xanax will help me since I'm not a back sleeper. Non of the medication has made me drowsy. hopefully the Xanax will help me sleep.
Here is a helpful list of recovery supplies you may want to have on hand. Also, feel free to join the September 2015 breast augmentation surgery forum to see if you can find a surgery buddy and some additional support. Good luck and update us often!
P.S. We'd love to see any wish boob pictures you may have collected!
