Hello ladies, I am 27 years old, 5'2" and 125lbs. I am too getting a BA. I been reading this site for 3 days now and I am addicted! I love reading all of the reviews/stories about everyone. I think we are all in the same boat-- excited, anxious, determined and in love! Those are a lot of emotions :) but hey we are girls right!! LOL.

I have alwasy been small all of my life. Some days I love what I have now but then I see other girls boobs and I am like, damn I want some too! I have been wanting fake boobs since I was 17, when my best friend got a boob job for her graduation present. I hate the fact when I lay down, I can put my whole hand in the middle of my chest. I want to be able to fill out my shirts and look bangin in a swim suite. I have always been super modest about myself, so I am looking for something super natural that will give people guessing if I am natural or if I just had a modest BA.

I have been reading all kinds of stories on here and I want to be able to give some people advise through my journey and be able to help out others like everyone else on here is doing.

I have done many consultations from 2009-2013. I have waisted a lot of money on consults and schedule an appt. and then back out last minute. I always talk myself out of the procedure. Like, this is gonna be a waist of money? Will I look retarded? Will people judge me differently? But NOW is the time. So why not get fake boobies!!

I have schedule a constulation with my doctor here in Pensacola, FL for June 21st at 3pm. I am SUPER EXCITED!! All I been doing lately is, thinking/dreaming about boobs, reading this site, looking at pictures (trying to find someone that looks like me, before) and trying to find the right shape and size I want. Currenlty I am a small A cup and hopefully looking to get either a FULL B Cup or a SMALL C Cup. They always say to go up a half size bigger than what you really want. WE WILL SEE!

I can't wait for my consult. Til then, I will just keep dreaming and reading about boobs!

I also don't know if i want to go above or beneath the muscle. Whats is the best way?

Depends how much tissue you have to cover the implant. Gummys are anatomically shaped by Allergan or Sientra I think. Good luck! Let us know your surgery date!!

questions / concerns

hislittlelady
I cannot go to sleep at night. (did anyone else have problems sleeping before hand) I have to literally make myself go to sleep. I am constantly on this website looking at pictures and reading everyones stories and what not. All I can think about is when can I schedule my appointment. I just want to pick my size and then get on with the procedure. I know what I want my boobs to look like post op, but I am nervous that my doctor won't be able to give me what I want. Once I have something set in my mind that is what I want and that is what I get. I know i won't look EXACTLY like some of the photos that I have seen, but a girl can dream. I am sure what ever I will have, I will be super happy with the results.

I haven't even had my consutl yet... (18 days to go) but I want to make sure I have all my ducks in a row when I go so I don't miss anything.

I am obsessed with boobs. And I CANNOT wait for mine to be here!

Questions:
1. What is the big different with getting the implant above ./ underneath the muscle? I read that you lose 50cc if you go under the muscle. So If I decide to go under the muscle, do I need to go 50cc than what I want?
2. How soon did you get to schedule your procedure after the consult?
3. I applied for Carecredit and got approved for $6K. I am definitley not putting the whole procedure on the card, maybe just half the cost :) I plan on paying it off interest free 18 mo. after procedure. Did anyone else do that? Were you able to pay if off in time?
4. I work about 75 hours a week (40- office job) (35 - rest. server) How many days do you think I should take off and then get back into it full time? A week? I might go crazy if its longer than a week!!!

Thank you for your help ladies!!
PS. Here are some photos of my wish list.

Make sure your ps does the 18 month mine only does 6 & 12 mo...above has a shorter recovery time..behind has better results if you're going largee because you have muscle to hold it in.. depending on your medical hx and medications and your ps schedule determines how long you can get in for sx. Remember your payment is due before sx usually turn it in during preop appointment..some offices only do ba on certain days...
June 4, 2013
Yeah I am pretty sure they do the 18 month promotional period. Thanks for the advice :)

Best thing I have ever done for myself! I am 39, 5'3", 120 lbs. Just had BA on Wednesday May 29th. My breasts did not even fill an A cup. I have worn padded bras forever. My silicone implants are 300ccs and my doctor said my cup size would be a full B,small C. I still wear same size shirts and felt so excited to try on a swimming suit and actually fill it out.
June 4, 2013
Me too! I have always worn padded bras.. i feel more comfortable that way. But at home, thats the first thing that comes off, after my shoes of course :) I feel like 300cc wouldn't do much for me (give me that satisfaction) Hope you are doing well? How are you feeling?
June 5, 2013
Feeling good, just a little soreness in chest muscles & incisions are sore, swelling is gone. Just keep reading about others experiences; mine was a breeze compared to some I' ve read about but I've been told I have a high tolorance to pain. Mine was was under the muscle bc not much breast tissue to begin with & implants would likely be visible through skin &I am very thin thru upper torso. Best advice I received was to move around as much as possible.
June 5, 2013
Glad you are feeling well. I am the same way, i have a high tolerance for pain too but just hearing and reading other people stories makes me think twice of the pain LOL. I kinda set myself up for the worst and when its not too bad, i feel a lot better about the situation. Thanks for the advice! :)

Hi, I am scheduled to get my BA June 24th and I am in the same EXACT boat as u! I thought I had it all figured out but now that the time is near I'm questioning every decision I made. I am getting 350ccs in one breast and 375 in the other (one is bigger then the other a little) I am getting gummy silicone behind the muscle. My Surgeon suggested it because I am a small A cup and he said it looks more natural to do it behind the muscle. I haven't slept much, wake up at 5am and jump on this site, I'm addicted!!!!! I'm so nervous of how mine are going to turn out!!!! Oh and I'm 26 5'2 118lbs. (I gotta post pics I actually just made a account a few days ago)
June 4, 2013
You sound just like me :) HAHAH! I am constantly on this site! Day in and day out! How many times have you been to see your doctor?? Your dates is CLOSE!! EEEK!

Just a little advice for your consult.... Go in with an open mind. I knew I wanted 375cc gummys, under the muscle, not too sure of profile, probably go because I am do small. Went to my consult, my PS told me most of the information before I could even ask which was awesome!! I told him I wanted to be a small to mid c cup, and that I wanted 375cc. He said he did not think t that was a good idea because I am so small 375 May put me to more like an d cup. So he says more like 280-300cc. I like the fact that he told me no because I think he has my best interest at heart rather than doing whatever to make a quick buck. Just have an idea and an open mind!! Good luck!!

Girl I went to my consult, my surgery is set for June 24th. He is the one who told me to do 350ccs and 375ccs in the other, I'm wondering if that's going to make me a BIG D? I know that 200ccs equals one full cup and I am a small A so I guess that would put me right at a full C? What do u think? I'm going to my next visit June 11th, I can make changes right?

That sounds about right. I would just double check and make sure you are both on the same page. My pre op is on July 6 and my surgery is July 11!! So excited!!!

I will make sure we are on the same page, thank u and good luck! Are u as nervous as me??? I've always said "I'm def gonna get my boobs done" but now that its actually all set and ready I'm like "omg I'm really gonna get my boobs done?" Lol
June 5, 2013
Thank you! I have had 3 consults already. I think I was much younger and I feel like I have matured and come to a conclusion to what I really want to do with my body. Stop listening to others and do what I want with my money and my body :) I guess I won't know for certain until my consult and try on some sizers and see what fits best to my body. I am glad that your doc was so honest with you about the sizing... that means he really did listen to your desires and wants to fill th em as much as he can!

Thank you for starting your journey on RealSelf. You are doing a great job with your research and asking lots of questions. Here are some additional important questions to ask your PS during your consult. Showing your PS your wish photos will help alleviate the worry over the last 25 cc's as he'll have a good feel for what you want. This link is from our Doctor Q&A and discusses your question about loss of cc's when going under the muscle. Lastly, here is a link which gives you a general overview of implant profiles. This is something that the doctor typically determines based on measurements he takes of your chest, etc. As far as your two jobs, I would postpone the waitress job for as long as you can...check with your PS on thi one! Keep us posted on your research!

TOMORROW!

hislittlelady
Haven't had much to say lately on here.. but I still have been looking, researching and reading everyone's updates to see if I am missing anything. TOMORROW is my consult!!! and I am so excited to go and talk to my doctor. This will probably be my 3rd consult in 2 years LOL. But this time I am going all in! I want to try and schedule by BA by August, that way I have a good month to prep and get everything ready before hand. I am excited to try on the sizers and look at the 3D images of me to see what I potentially would look like? Do those things do you justice??

I hope I will be able to sleep tonight, because I am going to be sooo excited! My appointment is at 3pm.. YAY!

Hey girl! I'm having my surgery tomorrow!!!! But when I went and did they 3D is was cool but at the same time just keep in mind ur gonna look even better then that 3D picture, it's bascually used for you to get a idea how the sizes look on ur body, not EXACTLY how you will come out in the end, it is pretty cool tho, u can see it from every angle lol I made the lady show my from the bottom and top too lol, good luck tomorrow, it's fun
June 24, 2013
Good Luck today on your surgery! You are gonna come out look Boobalicious!!!! :) I can't wait to see your end result! I LOVED the 3D camera! It was hilarious when you can see the "worms" point of view, i was like HOLY MOLY those are big! But it was fun, and i am finally not stressed on that anymore!
