I've been contemplating a breast augmentation for over 4 years but could never find a doctor that was trustworthy. After extensive research I met Dr.Richards. His work is amazing as well as his personality. He is very precise and knows what he's doing. I'm so excited and eternally grateful! :) Best decision I've ever made!

Glad you found a doctor you like and trust. I'm certain your research will pay off in the end with great results. Do you know what type and size implants you'll be getting? Feel free to join the March 2016 breast augmentation surgery forum for some pre and post op support!

I'm getting so excited and super anxious. I've been trying hard to keep myself super busy so that the days pass faster. I've even babysat my two-year-old niece overnight twice this week dropped her off to daycare and went to work! Lol just like I have a toddler but it's not working she's not distracting me enough. I need to call Super Nanny and babysit me of those kids!!!! Guess I'll work late on purpose tonight LOL

Feeling a LITTLE like you. I'm super nervous and feel time is both passing too quickly and too slowly. Not looking forward to the week following with three kids to chase after (one that doesn't even walk yet) and my husband works night shift. Sooooooo nervous, anxious, scared, and excited! I feel nauseous thinking about it all! Haha! Almost time!

Thanks! I'm doing pretty good. Found out today I'm allergic to the tape they put on my incisions. I was in so much agony with itching and now we know why. Other than that, loving the results!! You?

I'm doing pretty well. I had a similar issue with my tape. I kept itching but only in that area. My doctor removed the tape today. Now I feel really good. It's like instant relief. Now I can't wait to go bra shopping!
