Hey RealSelf-ers!

My surgery was on March 22, 2016 so I am over 3 months post operation! Time has seriously flown, and I'm in love with my boobs! I took a trip to Hawaii last month and was able to flaunt my twins in bikinis like never before lol! I also have a trip to Vegas coming up, and I can't wait to show them off at pool parties. I've also convinced 2 of my girlfriends to get BA's too!

Every now and then I still experience little zingers around my nipples. I also don't feel comfortable sleeping on my stomach for very long. My chest wall had a gap pre-op so that gap is always going to be there, but it looks so much better now than before and a good bra does the trick to bring them together. However I've noticed a little rippling in the middle where my gap is if I'm leaning over sometimes and only if I'm not wearing a bra. Other than that, I have no real issues. They aren't entirely perfect and symmetrical, but I'm glad I got as close to my desired outcome as possible. They are a lot bouncier than before and squishy, but with the Inspiras they will never be quite as soft as my friend that has Mentor implants.

I have been officially sized at Victoria's Secret, and I am a 32DDD! I've also bought some bras off of Amazon and from TJ Maxx that range in sizes of 30DDD, 30G, and 32DD as well. It all just depends on the brand and style.

Was a 32B/32C at VS. Now 32DDD.

Omg! You look sooo good! Your scars look amazing! They're totally gonna be almost invisible a year from now. :) congrats! I hope your occasional singers go away. I'm sure that's pretty annoying, not to mention painful!

I just went through all your photos ! They started off small but end up dropping bigger and they look flawless ! Only thing I don't like is when the incision cut rides up . I am suppose the be getting the same implants :)

My surgeon does his incisions that way on purpose. He told me its best to have them not directly in the crease, so that if your bikini top rides up, your scar is still covered. Every surgeon does it differently though.

You look great!! Glad to hear you are doing well! I don't think you have a gap at all. Mine are farther apart which I don't particularly like, but I would be very happy with the space you have between yours!!! Your scars look fantastic too. WHat have you been using on them?

This month has seriously flown by! I remember being so eager pre-op and thinking time was moving by so slowly, but now I've survived almost an entire 31 days in Boobieland! :) Here are some pics to give you all an idea of how I look with different things on!

I had my final post op appointment with my plastic surgeon, and I'm healing exactly as expected. I've had no complications and couldn't be happier with my results. They aren't perfectly identical - I sometimes notice my right nipple is higher than my left, because my right is slightly bigger overall. My PS said they will become less noticeable over time.

I am cleared for underwire, I can go swimming, and workout, but I should avoid doing any chest exercises for 6 months. He wants me to continue taking vitamin E daily to help with softening and to continue massages for as long as I have the implants to reduce my chances of capsular contracture. There are still times when I feel random sharp pains and tightness, but they are becoming a lot fewer than before.

I went to TJ Maxx since I'm a bargain shopper, and was able to find a couple bras that fit me! I'm a 32DD in Wacoal and 32D in Calvin Klein! I also fit into some 34D bras, but the band wasn't as snug as I prefer. I ended up getting 3 bras for under $40 including tax! :)

*STATS* -

*STATS* - 5'2" 114lbs currently, was an A cup/small B but wore padded 32C at Victoria's Secret, 485 CC's Natrelle Inspira SRF (smooth round full) which is like high profile, under the muscle, inframammary fold incision, no kids, and first time BA

Before my BA, I was obsessed with this website, but now I'm only on it to do updates so I'm sorry if my replies are delayed or if I seem absent! I've just been caught up with other things, but I still hope to help someone else out on their journey and feel free to ask me questions because I'm still here. :)

It's been over 3 weeks and I am loving my new additions sooo much more! They are getting softer and are feeling part of me finally. I can squeeze them together, and the massages have been helping sooo much. I still feel tightness the most in the morning when I wake up, but it goes away a lot quicker than before. I don't feel as many random zingers of pain, but they still happen from time to time. Nipples are still super sensitive, but I'm happy I have full sensation on both sides!

I got out a measuring tape and I'm 27 inches around my rib cage, and 36.5-37 inches around my bust. I haven't officially been sized so I could be a little off, but I think that makes me a 32DD. So maybe when I go to Victoria's Secret, I'll be a 32DDD? We'll see! I want to wait until after my next appointment with my PS before I start buying real bras. That'll be on the 18th, and it'll probably be my last visit for a while. Crazy how time flies.

I started using silicone strips combined with my skin Medica scar cream, so I hope that helps but I haven't seen much change since my last update.

You look amazing! Exactly how I hope to look once I have my BA! Can you post some bikini photos? I love the size! I've been debating between 450-550 sizes. Hope your recovery is going well!

You look amazing! They are healing so well. We have almost the exact same stats! I love how full and natural you are already looking! I've been leaning towards 400-450 but now I almost want to go bigger because I love your boobs so much! My BA is May 13. I am so nervous. I'll keep watching your posts, please keep updating!!

Thanks so much! Oh how exciting! Deciding on size is seriously the hardest part... I didn't make up my mind until literally right before I went into the operating room lol! I wanted a fuller chest look and I'm extremely happy that I went with 485's because I know I would have boob greed if I went any smaller. When I first got them, I thought they were humongous and I wasn't sure I would like them, but now that the swelling has all gone and they look more normal, I really love them! Try to make your own rice sizers and maybe that'll help. And remember that you'll lose some volume when going under the muscle and the difference in each size is only a few tablespoons! Good luck! Can't wait to see you on the other side :)
