I'm a 40 year old mom with a saggy 36C. Much of my life I was a small B. As I've gained weight over the years I've become an even more saggy C. I'm finally in a position that I can afford getting a couple of surgeries :) I will be posting under tummy tuck as well.

I wanted to add to my initial review. I am hoping to be no less than a DD cup but not alot over that. I so wish we could pick a size instead of choosing cc's method. I was thinking of getting 550 cc but after researching more it sounds like 550 would be way to much considering I'm a small C to begin with. I made a 2nd. appointment to meet with the Dr. to discuss sizing again. This time I'm bringing pictures for sure. I wish I had thought of that in the beginning.

This Thursday is my pre-op appointment :)

I'm excited yet nervous for these surgeries. I want to do all the recoveries at once but hoping I am not making a mistake by combining a tummy tuck with lipo with my lift and augmentation. Has anyone on here done both at once?

Welcome to RealSelf! Lots of ladies get these procedures done together and the marketing term is a "mommy makeover". I think that if you can, getting the procedures done together is a great option because then you only have one recovery. And people say that you focus so much on the tummy tuck healing that you don't notice the breast discomfort as much. I hope you find lots of great support, and maybe even a few friends, here in the community!

My surgery is July 13th. I'm still worried about size. I thought the 550cc looked good but will be seeing the Dr. Again next week to go over sizes again.

Pre-op went good. I'm not looking forward to the 10 days of shots my husband will be giving me. I'm also not looking forward to 2 weeks of sponge baths I have to take instead of a shower. Dr. Says its because of the abdominal stitches. I'm going to feel miserable those 2 weeks. On the positive side they said they would loan me a walker.
