Nurse, mother of one, wanting breasts, period....

WORTH IT$4,500
Nurse, mother of one, wanting breasts, period. Having had small breast my whole life I always envied those that were more endowed. So, I took the leap and had my consultation today May 5th, with Dr. Paredes in Tallahassee. First, I must disclose that this doctor took his time answering ALL my questions. I didn't feel pressured or hurried in any way. After speaking with him his nurse came in and assisted me with sizers. I quickly went to the high profile and ultra high profiles sizers. I have a broad shoulders and felt that the high profile would fill me out enough and didn't want to have boob greed afterwards, so I going for it..... 590cc ultra high profiles. Surgery date set for June 8th.

Second guessing the size I picked

FloridaShine
I scheduled another appointment for May 13th, to try on additional sizers. Upon doing more research I found that the Ultra High Profiles are narrower, and with my broad shoulders and rounded rib cage, I feel I may need a high profile, or mod+ to make up for the gap in between my breasts however, I going to miss the 0.6 cm projection of the Ultra highs, but would gain almost 4 cm in width/diameter..... Will post pics of the sizers Friday after the appointment.

Hello, u can go with the mentor moderate plus. That will give u the projection that u are after. I'm having my BA June 2nd, so just next week!! I haven't had the time to make a thread in my journey yet but I still read everyone's post. I too am 5'9, about 210 lbs.

What size are you going with? And what is you base width? Please post on here on your progress. Wish you had some pics. Is your supply list complete?

I tried making my profile this morning but had to run my kid to school and then when I got back, got busy with other chores and errands. I'll try to get one up tonight. I'm not sure what you base width is. How do u measure for it? I'll add that tonight also. I'm going with 500cc's as there wasn't much difference in appearance from the 425's to the 500's.

Another mammogram needed with additional view + sonogram

FloridaShine
Scheduled 5/20 to have another mammogram + sonogram.
Nervous, but heard it's common. I went with 550 high profiles on last visit with Dr. Paredes office; however, wanted 600 but the PA told me my base width would not support. Wasn't very happy with the PA's demeanor, I was rushed and it seemed like I was a bother.
