I am a 29 yr old happily married mother of 7 and 3 yr olds. I am 5'6" and weigh about 168...I am about 10 or so lbs higher than my average weight thanks to Zoloft : /. I'm now off that and working on gradually losing 10 lbs maybe...I kind of like my curves now. Anyway. I am getting my first BA wth minor lift on April 30th!!!! I've wanted this since I was 17 but wanted to wait til after I had kids. I don't want Huuuge breasts just natural nice busty ones that would go wth my body frame. I'm hoping for a large C cup...even if little bigger that'd be ok:). Is anyone the same size or close to my size who did 360cc saline? And are u happy wth them? I'm so crazy excited!!

Thank you for starting your journey on RealSelf. Sounds like you're turning over a new leaf in your life...way to go! Will you have some help with the kiddos during your recovery? Here is a helpful list of supplies you may want to have on hand. Looking forward to your updates!

Thank u:). My hubby will be helping me for the first couple days and my mom is comin down for a week to help out wth my babies. I'm soooooo excited. My dr mentioned doin 355 cc on my right since its bigger and 360 cc on my smaller left side but I don't want any smaller than 360 do you think he would keep 360 the minimum and go higher on the smaller side if need be? That's really my choice right?

Sounds like you talked with your PS about your sizing concerns. Most surgeons make the final decision during surgery based on what they think is best at that moment. He might deviate a few cc's from your pre-op plan. To make sure you're both on the same page, I would suggest showing your PS photos of your desired outcome. Glad to hear your husband and mom will be helping you out during your recovery!

I'm 5'7 and I weigh 171lbs and I got 440cc silicone gummy bears under the muscle and they came out beautifully! I'm. 4 weeks post op and I'm a large C or a D depending on the bra. I love them. They look so natural and they fit me perfectly! My doctor is an artist!

Ok so I just got off the phone wth my PS and I told him how I questioned him saying 360 cc on my right and little less on my right. But I don't want any less than 360 and I'm afraid when I lose this 10 to 15 lbs I want to lose that I will lose volume because when I lose weight my breasts are always the first thing to deflate!!! So...I decided to up it to 390cc on right and slightly less on left. I know it's only 2 TB difference but does anyone think this will be too big for my frame? Currently 5'6" and 166 lbs now :) I am not top heavy it mainly settled in my behind and hips...yeah I got a booty goin on lol. Btw this sucks buying pants when the stomach fits perfect but my a** and hips are too tight!!! They need to make more jeans for women wth small wastes but wide hips lol. Anyway...I want to lose 10 lbs after surgery wth time and I'm hoping going slightly bigger will help me not lose as much volume. Thanks everyone!!!! I'm so excited!!!!!!

Update: So it's getting down to the wire :). I'm so freakin excited!!!  I was going to go wth 360 cc saline but have decided wth 390 saline.  These days are dragging!!  So do we wear anything other than the gown during surgery? (Our panties,socks) I put a fresh coat of color on my toes in case no socks lol. How long after til we can have sex? (I have an anxious hubby lmao) and tanning? Spray tan. At what point can we just start wearing a sports bra no dressings etc. and that band we have to wear...how long for that lovely thing?lol. I keep looking at my current twins in the mirror...kind of a bittersweet goodbye lol. I really really hope they turn out how I've dreamt of them looking!! I will post after pics soon!! Good Luck to all of u who have surgery tomorrow...I'm jealous lol. :) hope all goes well!

Hi~ First of all we have the same surgery date, so Good luck! I'll be checking in at some point to see how you are doing :-) I am 5'4" and 125 lbs. Today is my pre-op appointment and will decide for sure on the size. I originally was thinking 360 to 375 but am now leaning more towards 400-420 and most likely HP (mentor, silicone, under the muscle). But will see what the DR. says today. I've been reading peoples stories on this site for quite awhile and there are A LOT of women that wish they would have gone bigger, so I guess when in doubt go a little bigger, that's how I'm looking at it! And sense you are wanting to lose more weight I think you are right about losing more volume in your breast. Keep in touch and hope all goes well :-)

Thanks!! Omg isn't this week dragging lol the month flew by but I swear this last week is makin up for it haha. How are the CC's of silicone compared to CC's of saline? Are they different ? Like is a 400cc silicone the same as 400cc saline? Lol I initially wanted silicone the gummy bear implants but after hearing about "slow leaks" and having to get an MRI done every year Out of pocket it ultimately made me decide to go saline but I totally respect people who get silicone it's all matter of preference. Good luck wth yours and I hope urs turn out great!! We'll both have to post after pics lol and see how recovery is goin!!

Yay omg I have breasts now!! Lol. I had such anxiety the day before but as soon as I walked into the office my day of surgery April 30 2013, the entire staff calmed my nerves and are so unbelievably sweet. Dr Yarinsky is truly a master at what he does... I'm only one day PO and have no bruising no major pain and my breasts are gorgeous and everything I imagined they would be! I ended up getting moderate profile textured saline- 370 on the left and 390 on the right. I will post more pics when I'm a little more healed. Soooo happy and feel so much more confident in my self. This was on my list of things I've always wanted ..I found my amazing hubby,have 2 beautiful healthy kids and we just bought our new house almost 2 yea ago and my hubby got a great job as a county CO (5 yrs ago) and I've been wth my job for almost 7 yrs. well the pain meds /muscle relaxers are kicking lol nap time ( another bonus of having a BA...as most of u moms know we NEVER get to take naps lol. Hope everyone who is still healing...good luck and I hope ur as happy as I am:)

Hi Jarrodsgirl! Happy to hear everything came out fine! Im on my 10 day post op (counting day of surgery) We have similar Stats, I got 390 cc(L) 360 (R), since I had my right slightly bigger. Im 5'5 and 150 lbs. I definitely felt that I should have gone bigger from day 1... Now on day 10th, I feel the same way :/ I am thinking that if I lose about 10 pounds my breast will looke bigger!! But I never thought about the volume I will be loosing on my breast! Can that really happen? Though the implant will still look the same!? My breast size looks similar to yours post op..How can I post pics??

Hi Perezjoana, Here is a link on how to post pics! I also PM'd you a request to write your own review about your experience!

So 2nd day post op and I am so sore and tired from these muscle relaxers. I hate this band I have to wear across my chest it makes them feel worse....all the pressure and digging in my armpits. But I know it's helping to push my girls down in their final resting place lol. I barely have any bruising and my stitches are healing nicely. How long did the discomfort last for u other ladies out there? I will be alone wth my kids and dog this Saturday and Sunday and my daughter is potty training so we r using our padded doggy stairs for her to reach the toilet as opposed to me lifting her up. I've been out walkin in the yard and in the store...I listen to my body if I'm tired or sore and rest. I switched from the dilaudid to extra strength Tylenol but now I'm wondering if I shld go back to the dilaudid but If I do I'll need to take co lace wth it because I'm alrdy so bound up and bloated and lucky little me started my menstrl cycle the day after surgery lol.

How's everything going
May 1, 2013
Hi:). I am def sore and tender...kinda feels like how my breast felt after pregnancy when my milk came in. Lots of pressure but ohhhh so worth it. When i came home ysterday I peeked at them from the top of the bra and they didn't look big enough for me at all...but today at my PO visit they took the bra and dressings off and I got to look at them in the mirror I was amazed. They look exactly how my pictured them!! I love them so much. The pain killers and muscle relaxer make me loopy and tired and its really hard to get up from a sitting or laying position. Hard to take deep breaths but definitely worth it all. Hope u r doin well also!
May 1, 2013

May 1, 2013
Thanks!! You can absolutely ask m anything!! U r going to love them even after the first day when they look beat up haha. Good luck wth ur BA and I hope it turns out great!!
