I am having surgery on Monday (3 days from today)
I have been wanting implants for 24 years.
I am thinking 600 CC, but possibly 700CC Gel implants.
The doctor is going to see if the 700 cc's will look good on me, if not then 600 cc's it is.
I don't want to look obnoxious...
So I am nervous, the nurse Tammy (she's super great) told me that if I wasn't nervous they would be worried.
Let's see, what to tell you...I was debating on the breast lift as well, but I am too scared to have them cut around my nipples like that and $7000 is A LOT of money for me...
I am hoping the implants will lift them a bit. I am looking for that sexy cleavage.
They combined the consultation and the pre-op visit in one since I am 4 hours away, which I thought was wonderful of them!
Thank you to RealSelf I saved money on the operation and the consultation!

Went with 680's, he made sure they were going to look good. I had plenty of room for them.

One day post-op

This was the day after I cam home. The most pain was in my right breast, but I think the seem of the compression bra was a little too close to my incision. Only other pain was when I would stand up. The pressure on my incisions caused pain. A low dose of pain medicine is helping just fine.

Felt SOOOOOOO great to take the compression bra off!! My husband helped me with my shower, he held the shower head and I washed off as best I could using as little water as I could, for fear of getting my incisions wet. We made a good team.
My butt is starting to hurt from laying down so much, but I'd rather take it easy and not hurt my implants. I have a step stool that I use to get things off the counter or from the fridge so I don't reach too far or too high.
Pain is very minimal now. Switching from pain pills to Tylenol. Most of my pain is from when I stand up and put pressure on the incisions. Otherwise, it feels like I need to breastfeed!!
