4 Month Update -- Post BA Bra size is 32 D!!
I am so used to my boobs that I forget I have implants, which makes me forget to write updates. Sorry for being such a slacker!
I looked back through my pics on this site and was SHOCKED to see my body pre-op. I forgot how small I was! My implants feel like such a part of me. I am so glad I took the pics, even though I was hesitant, so I can see how far I have come.
Life is completely back to normal. I am back to working out, including cross fit training with no problems at all. My PS said to listen to my body when exercising. I still can't do push-ups, but I am also not trying hard. I want to be smart and careful. No point in ruining the sisters over push-ups.
My PS also told me to go without a bra so they can settle into place over the next few months and I feel like they are dropping and fluffing nicely. Whenever I am home, I go braless and I have to admit, I love it. Ha! I'm getting so use to going without a bra that it feels restrictive to have one on.
My only small complaint is they still feel pretty hard to me. They are much softer than they were even a month ago, so I am counting on them softening up more as time goes on. My PS told me not to judge the results until the year mark because they change so much the first year. But even if they don't soften I will take it over having my lack of boobies anyday. My husband tells me he thinks they feel very soft and has no complaints ;)
In the last four months, I have gone bra shopping a lot! It's so fun now. In Victoria's Secret I am a 32D, but can fit in a 34C too. The 32D fits better, but the cup size is virtually the same. It's much easier finding a 34C in stores. VS only carries a 32D online.
As far as my size goes, I could not be happier. If I had to go back and do it again I would choose the exact same size and profile. I can dress them up or down. They look natural in clothing. Even at the gym or in swimsuits it's not glaringly obvious I had a BA.
I went to lunch with friends (two of the four people who know about my BA) after our workout at the gym this week. I brought up the push-up "problem" and they both said they forgot I had the procedure done. That was such a great compliment for me! I always said if I get a BA I don't want it to be obvious. I think that having a more athletic frame helps disguise my BA. It looks like I could maybe have boobs if I were naturally blessed in that department, which clearly I was not :)
I can't think of anything else to add. If you have questions, please let me know and I promise I will get back to you soon. It's such a scary process and I loved having people on the other side sharing their experience and advice.

What a difference a week and a bra can make!
I am happy to report the booby greed is gone! I think last week I got used to the swelling and when that subsided I was feeling a tad small. I have been bigger than I am now nursing my four kids, so after the swelling went down I felt like I was left with a lot less than what I initially thought I got from my BA. After getting used to this size, and wearing my nonsurgical bra for Halloween, I realised that this is the perfect size for me. I can fit into all of my clothes and this size looks in proportion to my body. I don't think it's obvious I got a BA, but I look "blessed" in the chest area and that's exactly what I wanted :)
My husband tells me every night that he thinks I went with the perfect size. He's been such a great support throughout this whole process, and he knew exactly what I wanted before I went in for my BA. Seeing his reaction to my new and improved chest makes me feel so confident and sexy. And that's why I did this. To feel more confident with my hubby. He loves me no matter what but I feel so sexy now.
And for me personally, my breast are perfect for me when I am naked, but I can choose to show them off or cover them in clothes. I am so happy with the size!!
I'm waiting for the stitches to dissolve and I have swollen veins around both of my incisions which is painful. I know this will resolve here in the next few weeks. I have to keep telling myself I am only three weeks out and to take it easy.
My life is back to normal this week. My sister left, my hubby went back to work and I'm a full time mom again. I was able to do light grocery shopping, dust, cook and lift my toddler in and out of his crib. I still can't reach all the way above my head with my left arm or lift things above my head, but those are the only limitations I notice. I am still not exercising, I want to be OVER cautious.
On tap for this week is bra shopping. I cannot wait to find out my size!!

Booby Greed??
I am two weeks out and feeling really good. My nipples are sensitive, but I know that will pass. I am just happy to have sensation period.
Otherwise, driving isn't painful, I can pull shirts over my head, wash my hair, pick up my baby, do light cleaning, and cook. I am almost back to normal. I haven't worked out yet, and don't intend to for a while. I don't want to do anything to mess them up.
They are dropping and fluffing out everyday. I love the way the look still, but after the swilling has subsided, I am having a bit of bobby greed!?!
I read several posts on booby greed after surgery. I was certain that would not be me! I was determined to have natural looking breasts. I was SO scared to go too big. My motto throughout my BA process was, "I'd rather be a tad too small than too big."
I saw other women who looked HUGE with 350s. So much so that it scared me out of going that big the day of sugary. I told my surgeon I wanted 325s. Boy am I glad he went with 350s. And he told me after surgery that 350 was the smallest I should have gone.
I LOVE them naked, in swimsuits, and tank tops. But now it's sweater season and they look good in sweaters, but not as big as I was expecting.
My husband keeps telling me they are perfect and it's exactly what I wanted. This is true! I wanted a nice, natural look. I think I got use to the swelling size so now they feel a tad smaller. My muscles are adjusting too, so they don't feel heavy and tight anymore. Plus, I am wearing the surgical bra which is like a sports bra. I am sure once I wear good bras again that will make a world of difference. So, I know this will pass.
And I am not complaining! I LOVE LOVE LOVE my results. I would do it again in a heartbeat. It's good that they feel so natural and a part of me already. They only time I notice them is when I get cold. We've gone out every night this past week, and it gets cold here in Idaho at nights. When I shiver, I can actually feel the implant with my chest muscles. It's a weird feeling. Maybe I need to knit booby cozzies : )
