So I have been following a lot of peoples updates on here and it has all been very helpful and informative, so I have decided to start posting my experiences to hopefully help someone as well in the future.
I have always had a problem with my nose. Although I am really happy with the front view of my face I have always hated my profile. No one has ever made fun of me or anything, it's just something that I am very critical about for myself. So my husband and I decided that it's time for me to finally get a nose job! He has never seem an issue with it but he knows how much it bothers me so he is very supportive, all my family is actually very supportive. I have already had my pre op and only have one more week before the big day! I have 100% trust in my surgeon, he specializes in facial plastic surgery and I feel he understands everything I want, which is overall my dorsal hump being filed down and tip taken in a bit. It's not as easy as that, all the steps he has to do to get my end result but that's the jist of it.
My MIL will be watching my two children for the first couple of days while my husband will take care of me. Has anyone found it hard to take care of two toddlers days after surgery difficult? Can't wait to show everyone the end results :)

You are beautiful! Good luck with your surgery. I am 7 months post op and it is the best decision I ever made!

Thank you :) I am so excited, I'm mostly nervous about being "put under"(never have before) and not much about the actual surgery or the pain associated.

I am scheduled for surgery on 3/14. I'm excited and nervous. I also have two children (youngest is 15 mths). Good luck!

good for you! ya im a little apprehensive how rough my children (almost 2 and 4) are with my face lol, I will most defiantly have to watch out for that!

I feel the same! Keep me posted. It looks like you're just a few days away from surgery :)

I officially only have one more week until the big day! I know it is going to go by so fast too. I feel I have mentally prepared myself as good as I can, alot has to do with reading others past experiences as well. For one, I expect to not like my nose when my cast first comes off, and to not see any "good" results until about 3 weeks either. If i set myself up that way, I may be pleasantly surprised. I actually have a breast augmentation consult scheduled tomorrow, my nose doc said I have no restrictions on when I can get that done and he will leave the time frame up to the other surgeon. He just said for me to remind them about being careful about putting anything over my face. So I am hoping I can get that done 3 to 4 weeks after my rhino. We will see

I'm glad you have so much support around you! I hope it all goes extremely well and that you love your results. Here's a list of supplies you might find handy for recovery. :)

We are almost nose twins! Your profile looks a lot like mine (and I also hate seeing mine in pics). I can't wait to see your results!
