I'm so excited and nervous to begin this journey. I have wanted breast since I can remember. I have always had a petite frame with small breasts, except while pregnant. I am nervous about going under, as this is my first ever surgery. I have the mom guilt of "what if" I leave 5 kids behind, or this is money I could spend on them- but I equally feel that I deserve this. I love my babies but not what they have done to my body. I told my oldest that I am grateful for 5 healthy kids and would never change that, but that I am having surgery to restore things back to the way they were before having kids....and improve; let's be honest lol- but being a mom of 4 girls is still important to me to teach them to have a healthy sense of esteem and be proud of themselves.

So- with that said..I am 5'4", 115 pounds and currently a 34A. I am seeing a board certified plastic surgeon and we discussed 450HP silicone gel under the muscle. Surgery is December 1st- so coming up!

Without a doubt, after having 5 children, you deserve this surgery! I'm with you, that there is healthy and positive way to share this with your daughters. Feel free to join the December 2016 breast augmentation surgery forum for some pre and post op support. Looking forward to your updates!

Whelp! Today is the day- surgery at 8am and I'm wide awake at 5...starving lol and I know it's only because they told me I can eat or drink past midnight. I have been so nervous leading up to this point but it's starting to turn into excitement. I'd like to already be on the other side of "boobie land" lol. I feel like I am ready though- as ready as I will ever be. I have my meds, which I am still nervous about taking Percocet...but I will deal with that after the surgery; I have my front hook bra, easy on-off comfy clothes and slippers. I have snacks in the hotel so that I can have food in my tummy...and I have a great mom who has come to help me!
So send good vibes and or prayers and I'll catch ya on the flip side!

Got to the surgical site and forgot my paperwork but they were super kind and reprinted it all for me to sign. Then I was taken back to change , take pictures, marked up, and weighed. The nurses were very kind and comforting- I had been SO nervous but by the time I was getting an IV in I was excited! So far I feel great! I ended up having an alergey to Percocet so I'm switching to Tylenol3. Other then the itchiness I feel good! Hoping for a speedy recover:) My doctor ended up placing 475cc- in happy with that!
