Exercising, working hard, using our bodies the way they were designed to be used results in overall greater happiness, more energy, and of course a more beautiful appearance. So WHY when you use our breasts for what they were designed for do they do the exact opposite?!After I was done breastfeeding my 5th baby it was obvious things were going to be looking VERY different. I have been thinking about breast augmentation since my 4th baby was done nursing. My first consultation with Dr. Miller was great. He put me at ease and I didn't feel embarrased. He asked me what I was looking for and he told me about pros and cons of saline and silicone. They took before pictures and we were done. I had gotten lots of food for thought. Later that same day husband and I agreed "let's do it!" I called and scheduled! My next appointment was to try on sizers. That was fun! After many helpful reviews on this Web site I went into the appointment aiming to begin with 450cc sizers. We started with 350 then 375 then 450. I decided on 450. I want a full look without looking overdone. The nurses have been very helpful and open with me so far.

Hahaha me too! I've already pushed my husband's surgery information limit. He doesn't even care what I get anymore as long as im happy and he doesn't have to feel uncomfortable with all the "wish" pictures lol do you know what profiles you're liking? I was caught off guard by my surgeon's recommendation for UHP but it makes sense since my bdw is so small at a 12.

No I'm not sure which profile? I think I will call and ask him. The nurse said he's really good at knowing what he needs just by looking and takes notes so I'm sure he has it in his notes. He's very informative on implant type pros and cons and surgical procedure but when it came to size he just asked me what cup size I wanted. I had to call back another day and ask to try on sizers. It wasn't until that day that the nurse said he noted 375cc. I ended up choosing 450 based on sizers.

I do know that the profile has everything to do with base width of the implant. Lower profile implants are wider so if your chest is small (like mine) UHP males sense

Thank you for taking the time to share your journey with us on RealSelf! You're not alone with your post breastfeeding feelings! So glad you have the opportunity to get this surgery. Feel free to join a forum of members also awaiting theirĀ February 2015 breast augmentation surgery. Keep us posted!

Excited for you! Mine are high profile. Man people think that they want the natural look so they go with moderate. I told my PA that when he sits me up on the table and him and the OR team are looking, I want them to think "nice [RS bleep]". Lol I also essentially threatened the anesthesiologist. I said if you aren't checking my Boobs out when you are waking me up, because they look so good, I will find you.

Considering you have significant drooping like me I would go with high profile. I don't know how narrow your rib cage is but mine is quite small (26") so high profile was perfect for my frame and because of my droopy breasts!!

Depending on you bwd ... UHP or High profile would look amazing!

Keep us posted. I agree with the other posts HP or UHP would look great. It's nice to see another active person on RS I was a personal trainer for quite awhile then decided to stop and climb the corporate ladder so to speak. There are lots of ladies that are active mom's who have nursed on this website. Please let us know when your surgery is and keep us posted. I wish you all the best on your big day and throughout recovery.

Getting close now! I just told my mom in law and arranged for her to have my little ones for a few days. it is a relief to have told her. She is very understanding. ...i have a super mom in law. Im so thankful for everyones advice and pictures. It has put me at ease and helped me to prepare! RS is so helpful too with checklists and videos. I have been on this sight nightly for the past 2 + months. I think its hilarious when i climb into my cozy bed at night and logon only to see all the other moms just logged on too and updated profiles haha! ! Night night kids! Time to log on to Real Self! Anyway. All set. Got work covered..fitness classes covered..surgery paid for...meals planned...kids taken care of...sports bras bought...bio oil purchased. All i need are nippies and im done.
