So had my consult. Loved the Dr.
Now my family is being unsupportive. First it started with my Dad. Then my husband came up with all these worries and fears of deformity, implant rejection, and just something happening afterwards that causes another surgery on constant pain, etc.
Anyone else have family that was fearful? Is there some good info to give them? I know the implant pamphlets they sent with me had ALL the possible complications that can happen afterwards and this scared my husband.

Had consult- now to decide and pay!!

So had my consult yesterday and I loved the PS. She was very informative, caring, down to earth and gave me a hug when I left.
When I first opened my gown she said I was a great candidate and I looked perfect and proportionate!
She did all her measurements and then we tried on the implants! She uses mentor and Sientra! I like the look and feel of the Sientra round, textured HP implant. She started me at 385 but I just wasn't impressed with the look. I think we tried at 400 or 425 in the mentor after that and also a 450, that's what I liked! She has 440 in the Sientra.
I spoke with a couple girlfriends who have similar height, weight and build and they all got lower cc's than me. 425, 400, and 350. So I hope I'm not going too big. They looked great I thought and my PS seems pretty conservative and so do her pics. She said she would only go up 100 cc's from what she initially pics.
Now to decide. All of my friends traveled to Seattle, a 2 1/2 hr drive and I'm going against the norm and going a little over an 1 hr to a closer dr. She also seems to be WAY more expensive. So I'm a lite torn!
I'm supposed to go to my primary dr on Friday to talk about the chest feelings I've been having. Maybe I should wait till that apt to book. Her hospital is already booking into March and I was really hoping for end of January early February!!! They said they could possibly get a slot since it's such a quick procedure.
Well ladies, what do you think about the size? I uploaded pics of my intake form with my measurements. ....ugh it won't let me upload and they're under the size limit!!! I think the main # she was looking at was across the breast at 12
My skin laxity is mild, she said thick skin, everted nipples, nipple sensation H, 1st nipple at it above IMF.
She will go submuscular, IMF
