BA Tomorrow ... Freaking Out, Having 2nd and 3rd Thoughts - Palo Alto, CA
ORIGINAL POST
I'm a 41 year old divorced mother of 2 kids...
WORTH IT$8,000
I'm a 41 year old divorced mother of 2 kids (9&8). Breastfed both.
My issue has always been not so much the fact that I'm small chested but that my breast are very asymmetrical ... I understand in every body part one side is always bigger than the other but for me it's a bid difference as you'll see when I post my pre-op pictures. I have an A and a B- which were never really perky.
I have been joking and talking about having this procedure done for YEARS, all my close friends and family have heard me and it's always been in half jest, half serious. I could never afford it before and, even today, I'm afraid of the pain and consequences.
Well here I am now .... it's a few hours countdown. Very like me I got side tracked and started reading the opposite side of the procedure where women are talking about "explantation" and all the complications and issues they've had and how much they want to remove their implants and I'm second guessing myself.
I've already paid for the procedure, it's non refundable, I can't change my mind just because. Plus I've wanted this for sooooooooooooo long. I'm very torn.
Please wish me luck and pray for me!
I am 41 .. I'll be happy if the implants hold out until I'm in my 50's.

Don't second guess yourself; don't even think about it. Surgery is a breeze. I was out to dinner the next day. I'm 7 days post. Seriously, not a big deal at all. Put it out of your mind. You'll be happy when it's done and you will wonder why you worried so much. I too worried about all the stuff I read and believe me, I read everything. I decided to set that aside and get them and if I have problems down the road, I will deal with that when it happens. That's hard for me to do but I wanted this for 20 years and made the decision to 'just do it'. Good luck and trust me - the surgery and recovery are easy.

That's a great comment, I'm going to read it again before my surgery as I'm so anxious, but like you I've always wanted it and you just have to think positive!

Congratulations! I look forward to hearing how you get on, I'm having a second thoughts day today I am annoying myself now...10 days to go!
Just think about how you would feel if you never went ahead. You've probably made the decision but it's just normal to be nervous! I truly hope it all goes well and you're happy about your decision and doing something for yourself! Take care x
