I have wanted this for as long as I can remember....

I have wanted this for as long as I can remember. Then one day I was fine with my little boobs - they were perky and "cute". Then like most of you on here I had two wonderful children and my little boobs became non existent. Even then I accepted the fact - a badge of motherhood. I started working out again how could my boobs shrink even more??!!!! Now I look like a teenage boy. I hate putting on a swimsuit, or a dress - bras don't fit, tops don't fit. I won't even take my shirt off in front of my wonderful, amazing hubby. So I saved and saved and now I have a date set for my BA. But I continue to struggle with the decision (fear, using the money on myself, what people will say, what do I tell my daughter's when they are older), etc. I worry about sizing - I am getting no help from the DRs office. I have read on here that many get help from the surgeon or 3D imaging machines! I use the rice sizers and then think everything just looks TOO BIG. I just want my old boobs back. Wednesday is the pre-op where I have to hand over the money and pick a size... no turning back after that. Maybe the weird dreams will stop once I make that final decision - the point of no return.

Decided to go with Textured Sientra 325cc moderate implants. Surgeon also said she can remove all the skin tags that hurt when I wear a bra (BONUS!). Paid the money and now the count down begins... along with all the crazy dreams etc. My dad is taking my kids for 5 days on a camping trip so excited so I can just relax for the first bit. After reading so many posts on here I just hope I recover fast and can function after that little bit of time. Added my before pic - don't have many wish boob pics to add as they would just be copied from other gals on here! July.21st cannot come soon enough.

Getting closer starting to freak out more

11 days away... now I am starting to freak out. Mostly about what I tell my daughters... do I tell them or wait till they are older sigh. Worried about what people think etc. I know its all in my mind - its not like I decided this on a whim, thought about it back and forth for 15 years! Hubby is on board, my family is on board (I didn't share with his)... and most of my close friends are supportive. I keep having this freak out moment - what if something really bad happens and my husband has to say to my girls - your mom died trying to have bigger boobs! I know that is stupid - i have had 4 different surgeries with anesthesia during missed miscarriages... but still a nagging thought in the back of my brain. Anyways just rambling along. Looking forward to hearing and seeing everyone's results - love hearing all the progress and POSITIVE results for the most part!!

Hi! I just read your story and I felt the EXACT same way. I am on my fifth day post op. I went with 320 hp silicone textured gummy under the muscle. I am 48 weigh 122 and am 5"7. I have wanted boobs since I was 14. I have two grown kids and felt horrible for wanting to do something, anything for me. My beautiful wonderful fiancé gave me the funds to do this for myself. First things first. You will not die. You will be uncomfortable. You will be sore. You will want to be better quickly so you can go back to the Wonder Woman who does everything as soon as possible. Just rest. Go stir crazy but don't hurt yourself. It's not worth it. Drink lots of fluids. Take your meds. Have others dote on you. Second, do not feel guilty. My ex husband never once thought of spending money on fishing or hunting equipment. My kids went to summer camps and played all sorts of sports. But i would feel bad spending more than $150 at the grocery store. Pathetic. Don't do it anymore. My youngest has one more year of college to go. I've paid my dues and raised two great kids. I've suffered to put everyone else first. It's my turn. Third, who gives a [RS bleep] what people say? I've gotten to the point in my life that I really don't care. I can't. It's a waste of time. Women will have a reduction because their boobs are too big but it's wrong for you to have yours increased to make you feel better? Screw them. If anyone says "oh you got your boobs done?" In a sarcastic tone, just say "yup! They look awesome, don't they?" Go for it sweetheart! You can do this! Just take it day by day, or even hour by hour. Leave your Wonder Woman costume in the closet for a couple of weeks. It'll still be there when you're ready to put it on again. ( and it'll fit much better on top)

Went better than expected wil post a full review and pics after tomorrow!!! Pain meds have finally kicked in so my back and chest and not fighting each other! The check in was the most scary part - so nervous and almost walked out in my gown. Thankfully a support staff of four amazing woman reminded me about how I came to the decision. Once in the operating room I was out and woke dealing quite excited when I looked down!!! Pics to follow!

Good point 389! Never thought of it that way regarding breast reduction vs augment. So true. I too suffer from guilt here and there- same reasons. I have been giving and giving for years. Had gone to therapy to work out kinks on the inside. Now working on my outside that took a beating from several pregnancies. Mommies deserve too! Enjoy fit!
