Hello! I am a 36 year old happily married mother...

WORTH IT$6,000
Hello! I am a 36 year old happily married mother of two. I'm 5'1", And go to the gym twice a week. I have always wanted breast augmentation, but my husband was against it and I couldn't bring myself to spend that kind of money on myself. Well, this year, my husband changed his view on it and knows this is the only thing I have asked for. He secretly saved up money and surprised me with a consultation. We walked away setting a date. "B" day is 5/9/17!!! I have always been a very small 32a/b cup and dreamed of what I would do if I ever had the opportunity- but now it's happening and I only have two weeks to plan!! My reservations are the recovery period/downtime. I want to get back to working out asap. (I like high intensity workouts.) I want the rest of my body to match my new beautiful boobs! :p I work a desk job and plan to take Tues-Sun to recover. So much to do- so little time. Can't believe it's happening!

Will be the best thing you've ever done!! My doc said no excessive use of the chest muscles for 4-6 weeks post op, but that may very by surgeon. I went and had 240CC under muscle done almost 6 weeks ago, I had surgery on Monday morning and was back to work on Thursday with no meds!

Thanks bmorris2010!! I am so new to this, I barely figured out how to see notifications lol. That is really encouraging. It's not looking so scary anymore.

Thanks so very much! I feel great. A little swollen, but don't need the pain meds.

10 days pre

Had my sizing today - still unsure of size

I had my pre-op/sizing appointment today. I am getting Natrelle implants, style 20, moderate profile. I was set on 260cc but my husband talked me into 300cc...since they are going under the muscle he didn't want to lose volume. I think I am gonna call them back and go down to 280 (which should fit like a 260 placing them under the muscle) and meet in the middle with my hubby. My PS let me take the 280s home to wear around for a while. What do you think?? What should I do??

What size did you decide to go for? Good luck for tomorrow.

Funny- I ended up calling the PS last Monday changing to 280, then calling right back to stick with the original plan of 300cc lol. I stressed about it because I didn't have much time to decide for sure. I have heard everyone say better to go a bit bigger than too small. I am petite and I'm sure there will be a noticeable difference but at this point, I don't mind. I still hope they aren't ginormous lol. I am not even nervous anymore. Thank you so much for the good wishes! :)

Have debated between 250 and 295 so I understand your dilemma. I really hope it goes well and will watch your results with interest. Good luck!
