I'm so excited an nervous - my surgery is in less than a week! I had "lurked" on this site prior to making my decision to go ahead with a BA 6 months ago, and then started reading reviews again once I had my pre-op last week. It's becoming real now!
Stats: 34, 1 child, breast fed a year, married, always been an A or barely an A, 140 pounds at 5'5", 11 cm
My husband isn't a breast man, so he's not super in favor of me having a BA, but knows that it is for me and something I've wanted to do since I hit puberty and the boobie fairy passed me by.
I'm pretty sure I want to go with 350cc HP silicone, but I don't want super north pole fullness. I've seen some great photos of you ladies who've gone with HP and by 3 months the roundedness at the top isn't so extreme or bally, so that's what I'm hoping for. There's an option for 300 mod+, but I'd prefer go a little bigger... I just can't in that profile because of the narrowness of my breast. My PS first measured me as 10 cm when I went for my first consult, so for the last 6 months I've had an even narrower view of my options. All of a sudden 10 minutes before leaving my pre-op, he says, no, you're 11. So now I have visions of boobies dancing in my head!

I have heard about HP having too much upper pole fullness but there are beautiful examples of women all over realself with HP and totally natural looking boobs!

Totally! I was afraid of them for that reason but glad I changed my mind because I feel like my own results personally would not have been so full had I not gone the HP route. :)

In your pre-op pics yours look SO MUCH like mine! Good luck with everything! I'm thinking of around 350cc HPs myself, having my consult and surgery next month though so will have to wait and see how it pans out. Really interested to see how you go. So excited for you! :)

Thanks! Good luck to you - I'll def share pics after. I think I (and you, if yous are similar!) have a nice starting shape/bones, so am hopeful for a good result!

Finally got some sleep last night

Ever since my pre-op 7 days ago, I haven't gotten more than 5 hours of sleep each night - my mind keeps racing with thoughts and possibilities (good and bad) with this BA. Mostly daydreams of how awesome I'll look! So last night I cracked open my post-op meds and had 1/2 a vallum. I had checked with my PS if I could have one the night before surgery (yes), so used my own judgement to say this was fine. I have taken melatonin in the past when I couldn't sleep, but I believe this is a blood thinner, so no go.
3 more sleeps (or sleepless nights, depending!)

Glad to hear you are doing well!
Have my surgery scheduled now for March with him. I am very troubled by what size I'm going to go for and if he'll want to do it. When I consulted with him he said I could do 375 but I'm pretty sure I want bigger because I don't think I'll be ok with 375. I am 5 ft tall and 140 lbs. I just think I want 450. Good luck on you traveling back home :)

I'm 5 ft 2 inches tall, 100 pounds and went with 371 mp. The size is perfect so if you want 450 it should be fine since you are taller. Hope this helps and good luck:)

My original desire was a b or c cup. Now, if my body would have allowed, I probably would have gone much larger than the 350 he/the guidelines recommended. Boobie greed for sure! You said he recommends 375 for you; is this because of your dcm or opinion on your proportions? You don't want to risk complications by going bigger than you should, but if your dcm shows you can handle larger and that's what you want, I'm sure he'll do that for you. Just remember: he's the expert and wants you to have the best result. Good luck with your decision!

If dcm is the same as bwd then he measured it at 11.5 at consultation. That's why he said 375. I think he wants the most natural result which I understand it to be the goal of doctors and many women getting a BA. Mine is not to look super unnatural but also not the most natural because I think I would feel they would be too small. I have broad shoulders and think bigger would look better. On your pic with the black shirt there is a big difference on the look and it looks great and you have 350. It's just because so many ladies say in clothes they disappear hehe.
January 22, 2014
Yes! I meant bwd - all these abbreviations! Yes, clothes make them disappear more, but you also don't want huge side boob or complications with it folding or rippling or whatever. There's also the option of super high profile to give you more ccs in limited width.
