I have been pretty much obsessed with breasts...

I have been pretty much obsessed with breasts since I was 16. Not in a sexual way, but in a "WHY don't I have some, way?" My friends growing up thought they were being sweet by saying, "You're so lucky that you can go bra less. I could never do that." Ouch! PSA- don't say that to small breasted girls. It cut's like a knife. Ok so flash forward 12 years, and I'm married with two kids. My breasts filled out to a full C while I was pregnant and breastfeeding but so did the rest of me. lol My size 3 (110lbs) blew up to a size 13 plus (160lbs). I lost most of the weight, and have dropped down to a 6/8 around 125 lbs. My boob's, on the other hand, barely exist now. I barely fill out an A cup. I'm flat as a board in a sports bra, and have been buying the Miraculous Bras by Victoria Secrets trying to balance my pear shape out. I no longer fill these $75 bra's out, and decided it was time to make a permanent change. My dh isn't exactly supportive as he likes me the way that I am. But he doesn't feel like a 12 year old in a bikini. He doesn't know how frustrating it is to wear a dress because I don't fill out the top portion. So to him, I'm being selfish. I guess I am. I'm a stay at home mother (His decision so he can focus at work) of a 4 and 6 year old. I cook 3 from-scratch meals a day, clean house, do laundry, have started an acre plus vegetable garden, pay our bills, attend all of my daughter's school events, and rarely get a break from anything. I love my children, and my husband but it's time I do something for myself.

You definitely deserve this surgery :)! Don't feel guilty! I'm also a stay at home mom of two my hubby is extremely supportive and understands. Sometimes you just have to do something for yourself. I hope the 11th goes smoothly for you! What cc's are you going with? I actually also picked Kyle and my surgery is April 12th!

450 cc high profile shaped implants :) I want a very natural look and slop of the chest but much larger than I am already. What about you? I adore Kyle! He was just so easy to talk to.

He was so easy to talk too! He's so honest and I love that he responds to email quickly. I'm not sure about my profile yet were going to talk more on my preop appt on the 4th, I'm going with 300cc. I have a very small frame so I will end up being a full C small D :). I cant wait!

How did your pre-op go? What did you decide on? Can you believe we're 2 and 3 days away? EEEk!!
April 9, 2016
My prop went great, I'm doing 300cc high profile. Oh my gosh I know I'm SOO excited I can't stop thinking about it haha. Good luck on Monday :)!!!

Totally agree that you should do something for yourself! My bf hasn't been very supportive either but i always tell him he's not the one who has to live with no boobs lol

What I want!

So my husband finally came around, and is now really excited for me! :) He's really enjoying the inspirations that I've been looking at. hahaha I've decided to go with high profile 400cc-450cc memoryshape silicone implants by Mentor. They are the tear drop shaped, "gummy bear" aka cohesive gel, textured implants. I want a really natural look, with the natural slope of the chest, less projection on top, and fullness on the bottom.

Man! These things are super tight... I can barely move my arms to type on my iPad. I ended up with 390cc as my ps suggested would fit the best, and look the most natural. I'm so excited for the swelling to go down so I can get a good look at them. Pain isn't terrible in the chest, but getting out of bed or raising my arms has been quite a feat so far. My post op appt is tomorrow and hopefully I'll be able to post an update picture.

How are you feeling now? I've always wanted to have mine done but have been scared of the recovery. My want is far exceeding my fear lately. It looks like your turned out great. I would like to have the same type of results. Were yours under or above the muscle? Big difference.

I'm doing great. I'm almost back to normal. :) I went under the muscle as I didn't have much tissue and didn't want the elevated risk of rippling. I wanted a BA for over 10 years and put it off to pay off debt, buy a house, etc... As soon as we had the extra money- I went for it! If you can afford it... do it! You won't regret it! If you're local! Kyle is amazing... seriously! My husband has a tendency to get a little jealous but he was completely at ease with Kyle, and his professional yet approachable, friendly demeanor.
