Hi! I need help. I am a 33 year old mother of 2. A 4 and 10 year old. Both boys. Happily married to my husband of 12 years. Been with him for 17 years. I have always been a thicker girl. I am a size 10 waist now. But have always been small chested. I have wanted BA for a long time. Ever since I can remember actually. Now I have my consultation coming up in 2 days. I am scared and it is only the consult. Am I being vein? Selfish? Shallow? Am I wasting money that could/should go to my kids? (not that they have a want or need for anything) I have so many emotions running through my body. I have never felt someone with breast implants. What if I hate the feeling. Worse, what if my husband hates them? I am kinda freaking out!!! Am I alone?

Ok! So the consult is over and surgery is scheduled!!! Dr. Maddalli is simply amazing and put all my fears to rest. So...pre-op is on the 14th and surgery is on the 21st. I am going in the range of 315cc-355cc. Should bring me from a small b to a full c maybe small d. I can't wait to see what happens. However, I am a little nervous about everything. What if I don't wake up? Am I putting myself at risk for vanity? Will my boys understand that girls don't need boob jobs to be beautiful? Am I setting them up to view women correctly? As a mom of 2 boys, I am very concerned about being the perfect role model as I know who I am will directly relate to and mold who they become as grown men.
Either way, I am excited and can't wait to see the results. I am 190lbs. 5'5" and have a muscular frame. I will post pics when I get a little more comfortable.
Do I need to be buying anything before surgery that might help after??? Any suggestions are welcome! I run a company but am mostly in the office at my desk...is it completely unrealistic for me to expect to come back to work the day after surgery? (keep in mind I was back in the office 3 days after giving birth to my son) I am not around a lot of people so it doesn't matter what I look like. (meaning I don't have to dress up)

Glad your consult went well and helped to answer many of your questions and concerns. The emotional roller coaster of feeling nervous, guilty and excited all at the same time is normal. Hang in there! Just double checking but is your surgery in December or January? If it's December, here is the December 2016 breast augmentation surgery forum. (You can also type the forum title in the RealSelf search bar for either December or January.) Looking forward to your updates!

I also run a company and am hoping to go back to work in 3 days. The best shopping list I have found is:
front zip sports bra, ice packs, baby wipes, neck pillow, hibiscus soap, bendable straws, crackers, jello, applesauce, pudding, plenty of water and metamucil ... would be curious to know if anyone has anything to add to that list!
