Hi everyone! I finally brought myself to write on...

Hi everyone! I finally brought myself to write on here (will post before and after pictures). I am looking for advice, tips, etc from others in my shoes. I am a 24 year old mother of two and after breast feeding both of them, I feel I need something to get my boobs back. I was a 34 c prior to kids, went to a full d after the first, a dd with the second once I got my milk in. I stopped breast feeding and my boobs have changed so much that I honestly have no idea what size I am anymore. Maybe 34b? All I know is that they're "deflated", flat and flabby. It's frustrating because I feel I'm way too young to have them look like this. I have noticed a lot of other moms out there with the same issue. My husband and I have talked about this for a long time. I finally made up my mind to move forward and just do it. I did a consultation and a lot of research and have chosen dr. Repta in Scottsdale. He made me feel comfortable and was really nice! I just got an overall good feeling about him. From reading other reviews about him he does great work.

I have a few questions. They've given me the option of scheduling the surgery August 20th (10 days away eeek!) or waiting until the doctor gets back from vacation and doing it sept 17th.

1. I am unsure of what size to go. I am 5'3 and 135-136 lbs.
2. I am heavier than I normally am and was wondering if I should wait and get more toned/lose a few lbs or if it doesn't matter.
3. I am doing the gummies, I want them as natural as possible but still relatively big. I don't want to pay a ton of money and go up just one cup size.
4. Is 10 days away too soon? I feel like everyone prepares their mind for it a lot more. But I also feel like if I dwell on it I'll talk myself out of it. Is a month away too soon? Should I wait more? I feel mentally ready if that's even possible.
5. To other mommas that have had a c section and boob implants, which recovery was worse? I've had 2 c sections and swore I would never have another kid because of the terrible recovery I had.

It sounds like the 8/20 might be a little rushed. It's nice to feel a little more "ready" for your surgery even though you'll still be nervous...if that makes sense? You might want to prepare a few meals ahead of time, line up some child care, prep your house so you're not trying to vacuum 2 days post op...which would be a disaster to try anyway. You'll have to see what works best for you and anyone else involved. ;) Let us know what you decide!

We'd love to see some wish boob pictures for starters and any type of pre op pictures (clothed or not,) so the community can give you some better feedback on implant size. Feel free to join the September 2015 breast augmentation surgery forum for some additional pre and post op support. Update us again soon please!

What I'm working with...

Well this is what's left after breast feeding both my kids for a full year each. I want them to look full, natural but bigger. I've been reading a lot more on this and had a few other consultations. I've had a few doctors say I could get the look I want with the cohesive silicone. Gummies are more expensive. Thoughts?

Also I am going with the September appointment. Gives me more time to prepare.

Here are a few pics

I am posting a few pics of what I don't like and one picture of what I want mine to look like. The closer together the better.

I don't want there to be a noticeable space between them. I also don't want them to look "implanty" aka perfectly round balls.
