15 Month Update
WORTH IT$8,400
Not much has changed since my last update. Things pretty much look and feel the same. I am able to sleep on my stomach much longer than I was previously able to. That's a plus. I noticed that I do sleep on my back more than I ever have before and it's not uncomfortable.
I did notice that the side of my left breast felt slightly different than my right. No one was able to feel it except for me. Long story short I went to my primary care doc who then sent me to get an ultra sound and mammogram. Turns out there is a fold in my implant that only I can feel, but showed up after all the exposure to radiation. Ugh the worst part of the experience was the mammogram tech. She had the worst attitude. Wish I wouldn't have gotten that. Who gets a mammogram under 30 anyway?!
Still like my boobs :-)

10 Months!
Well I haven't posted in awhile because I forgot my password and was too lazy to reset it. I'm feeling great. Bought lots of bathing suits. Finding good tops are little more challenging than I thought. It's nice to be able to wear things I would have never worn before.
Recap: I have no pain or weird feelings. I go braless whenever I want, but most of the time I wear bra. Still sleep in supportive sports bras or my genie bra which was given to me after surgery. I don't do chest exercises although I'm sure I could if I wanted. I sleep on my stomach which is comfortable. Of course it doesn't feel the same as it did prior to implants. They are very soft! I feel sorry for those with highly cohesive silicone whose breasts feel hard. They move and are not stuck in my chest. The look and feel is a more natural look. I get nice cleavage with a bra and my gap has come along way since day 1. I'm pleased with my outcome.

I agree. I have textured bolted on implants. Wish I had got smooth.

I actually have Sientra textured shaped implants. They are soft and have movement. I know ppl say the feel of the implant will be impacted by how much breast tissue you started with. But in my opinion I didn't have a lot of breast tissue. By implants came out soft and have movement. Now in my early stages that was a different story.

What's ur BWD? I'm 5.4'1/2 and 120 pounds. My BWD is 13.1 and I had my pre op yesterday and getting 350/375 but not sure if I should get 400 now that i see yours :/ so hard to choose

I think my BWD was 12. 350/375 vs 400 isn't a big difference. If you are thinking about getting 400 I'd say go for it. The important thing to consider is would you be more disappointed if your boobs turned out too big or too small.

Random Thoughts
I've had my implants for 7 months already. Feels like it's been much longer. My one year anniversary seems soooo far away. Could they possibly change any further??? I'm happy with the way they are but a lot could happen in 5 months. I'd be happy if they got even softer, maybe closer together, and fluffed out more. This are the only acceptable changes I'd be okay with lol. I don't think they'd drop much more but you ever know. Hmm…wondering how much different 7 month results are from 12 month. I need to find some reviews.

I feel like I really fell in love with mine around 9 months... They just looked more natural. I read one of your earlier posts about having a hard time finding bras in your size. I was professionally sized at 30DD... Nobody carries that size! Especially nobody that sells affordable bras. I have been a VIP member at Adoreme.com for like 6 months and have gotten so many cute bras in my size. Sexy, lacey, fun colors and all. They have a really wide range of sizes so it works great for gals like us. Good luck! You look great :)
