My boobs reached their maximum magnitude when I was 15 years old... Since then even if I was hoping for more they stayed pretty much that way... Pretty small!
At some point I tried to ask my parents for some more but, this was not even an option :)
I was a kind of OK with that because, at the end, even if there wasn't much, they were cute little [RS bleep].
Eventually a few years later I got pregnant and I finally got boobs, I mean real ones! The only problem was that it was mostly because of the milk and the weight gain, so once that was gone I was back to where I started minus the initial cuteness (after 2 kids they are looking VERY empty).
So here I am now, I started caressing again the idea of a surgery to get the breast I always dreamed about just a few months ago. It seems almost impossible that I already booked the date for the surgery already (October 23rd 2013!!!!!)
I am still full of question about which size should I get, if they will [RS bleep] good or not and so on... Wish me luck, I am also super scared of the anesthesia.
Hugs to everybody!

Hi, welcome to the boobieland! Wow so close, how are you? Nervous, excited? My big fear is the anesthesia , I'm so worried to wake up during the procedure LOL. Keep us updated , Good luck in your pre op tomorrow. Big hugs! ;-)

I am REALLY exited about it!! I can't pretty much think to anything else, it's such a big change :)
And yes I share the same fear for the anesthesia.... What scares me most It's not really the fact of waking up during the procedure but the fear to die for some complication... Agggghhh!!!! Hugs to you too!!!!:D

Oh well how are you girls?
I am here drinking some major quantity of homemade-not particularly good coffee (unfortunately my coffee is by definition a little shitty... I am not a good coffee maker). I haven't slept much yesterday night, my son woke up a million times and this is adding stress to the already-there stress for the surgery, which is tomorrow by the way...
What will my husband do if the same happens the nights after the surgery??? I am the one that normally wakes up and put everybody back to sleep again... Aggggh!
I am really concerned about the fact that I will be invalid for a few days pretty much. I really hope (oh please! make it happen!) things will be smooth at home.
Mmmm this coffee is not so shitty as usual, nice new experience ;)
Going back to the main subject of this post, the surgery, I have some updates.
The Doc. saw me yesterday, took measurements, talked about different sizes, implant profiles, what's going to happen in the operating room and so on.
This is a summary:
- she is going to do the incision under the breast and insert silicon gel implants under the muscle
- How she is going to determine the size/shape to use:
During our meeting we discussed the final look and shape I want. Depending on that she ordered a few implant in different sizes/shape that approximately could give me what I want. When she opens me up she is going to try on BEFORE a disposable implant (she has a "n" number of them) in the same size/shape of the final implant; depending on which one looks better she is going to pick that shape/size for the non-disposable/final breast implant. The reason for not using right away the final implant is because everything has to be as sterile as possible, so she wants minimal handling for the final implant.
- close everything
Hope this helps, my final size ideally should be a C (full) cup. So I will be adding around 350/370ccs - max will be 400cc (but that might be a little too much)
Agggh tension! I am a little scared, I hope everything will go OK.
Hugs to all of you!!!
