Today is my consultation day! I've only booked it...

Today is my consultation day! I've only booked it about two weeks ago. I havnt even gone for the consultation and already put the non refundable deposit for my surgery date! I just love his work and all the incredible reviews all over the net. I was originally told he wouldn't be available till July, which broke my heart because I really didn't want to go with another ps. But of course the wonderful Sarah from his office pulled some strings and worked some magic and got me in for June 4th. My consultation today will be with Kim, his assistant. Which I don't mind, I've met her before and she was amazing! I just hope we get a lot done at the consultation today like trying on sizes and stuff instead of just talk and suggestions since I only have about a month before the big day, I don't want to have to come back again. I still have to get the meds, pay in full once we decide what I actually want today, also have to look for a post surgical bra(not sure where)

So as for my vision and what I want. My torso is pretty big, being pregnant made my rib cages wider. I loved my breasts shape before pregnancy but now they're just deflated balloons. Even a double push up bra is useless because there isn't anything to push up but skin. Doing this in hopes of having my self confidence back. I'm so depressed. Everytime I'm out I try to look for a new bra that will make things better but there's never a happy ending so maybe this will be it. Anyways there I go getting off topic. I started with 34a and the biggest I got was 36d. I'm looking to get my pregnancy boobs back, but more volume. You'd think after everything we and our body had to go through to bring beautiful children into the world that god would at least let us keep out ginormous pregnancy boobs lol anyways, I'm aiming for a D. Which isn't too big. I'm really nervous about the healing process as I have two kids. A 2 year old and a 7 month old. I didn't breast feed. I originally wanted the incision at my armpits(sorry I don't know the correct term) but Ive been reading that it doesn't set at quickly and I need them to set as I'm in a wedding party for aug. I'm also worried about healing and not having as much mobility with my arms as I would if I went under the fold or at the nipples. I really don't want it under the fold, I will ask to see dr jugenburg's other patience who have had the incision at their areola.

So that's is my useless rant. I'm not sure if I'm nervous or anxious or just plain scaredx not so much for the surgery itself but for the recovery. If anyone has any tips and pointers please let me know. Anyone with younger kids who have had this done.. Serious, how hard was it?

Hi! You should get all you need accomplished at consult. Take them lots of pics of what you want to look like. You may not need a surgical bra but they all do things different. You will need comfy sport bras. A colonies bra is one I bought and also some cheap ones at Walmart. There is a website called healmenow.com where I did buy 2 surgical bras that come with ice packs (I have pic on my profile) but was told after I didn't need the bras, but I think they are comfortable so do wear them. Good luck! Keep us posted!

Hey doll! I went with Dr. J, loving the results. I have to small kids as well...4 yr old and my daughter was 6months when i got my BA.

Your results look amazing! I had my consultation with Kim and were thinking 540. I am 5'3 and 140lb. Didmy lose that baby fat :( you on the other hand look amazing! I'm jealous. I actually want to go a tad bigger but I'll be seeing dr j this coming week see get his input. I wanted to go with silicone but Kim said to just save my money because I have a lot of good fat and usable tissue in my chest that you wouldn't be able to tell the difference. Also my breasts are wide so I need a bigger size to fill them. I didn't know they provide you with a post op bra. Can I ask what meds they prescribed you? I havnt picked mine up yet. How was it to have your kids back at home after the third day? I'm so worried about the incision placement.. I originally wanted it at my arm pit but I'm scared I won't have as much mobility...

Ahhh i wish i went in the 500 range! Lol Honestly, i saved the extra $2K and got saline and have no problems or issues with it at all. Mine breasts dont look any different from silicone boobies & I havent had any rippling whatsoever. I dont remember all that was prescribed. It was a lot. Dont be a afraid when you pick up your meds by the amount...you take majority of the pills before surgery. T3's and perocets are prescribed for pain and a antibotic to be taken every 6hrs i believe after surgery. I had my mother in law stay with me for almost 3 weeks. I didnt carry my little one till i hit week 2. Before then i would just let prop up a pillow beside me, let her head rest on that and id lay her body on me and would feed her and play with her like that just so i had some contact and time with her. But no lifting or picking her up. Dr. J & Kim were adamant on that. My boy was older and understood mommy had a "boo boo" lol

Oh no don't tell me that lol I was planning in cheating and picking up.m the little one. I will have to lift him up and move him around.. I won't have anyone staying. Dad can only take a week off. I'm really anxious to hear what dr j thinks of me going a tad bigger. Thank for all the info girl

3 weeks away! :O

My surgery day is in three weeks and I havnt even decided on the size yet. My consultation was great. A bit awkward and annoyed that I had to bring my whole family! My husband wanted to come and hear what they had to say and also feel the different implants so we had to being the two little ones as well. Kim was in love lol anyways at the consultation with Kim I originally went in there wanted silicone but she seen my breasts and said to go with saline becUse I have a lot of good fat(which I don't consider a good thing lol) that you won't even me able to tell or feel the dis serene. She says to save my money. we sort of decided on 540cc. It looked ok but it was on top of my breasts under the sports bra. And I've honestly read way too many stories about you beautiful ladies regretting not going bigger! This is scary I wish we were able to see what they'll look like BEFORE the surgery.

I feel so in prepared I have three weeks till the big day and I havnt done a thing! I've tried cleaning and organizing but that lasts for about a day before it looks like a hurricane hit my place. I havnt gotten my prescriptions, havnt bought a thing, I don't know what size post op bra or sports bra to buy. I havnt paid in full, havnt packed for the overnight stay. My 2 year old and 7 month old will be staying at moms for the day of surgery and the day after.. My surgery is scheduled for 8:15 am but I'm asked to be there for 6. You're asked to shower and shave before coming in so it looks like I won't be sleeping at all that night! I also have to pack the kids things, I have a mountain of laundry to do. I didn't realize how much needed to be done until I started writing omg I'm feeling really over whelmed.

I'm trying to lose some weight before I go in for surgery. My arms are disgustingly fat. I gained 63lbs with my last pregnancy!! I'm already top heavy so I don't want the twins to make it look even worst. I'm just ranting about nothing now. I'm really worried I'll regret the size so to take care if that I'll go a size up. I know when I first see them I'll burst into years of regret because if the way they look and how high they are, I already know that and I can't stop it from happening, I hope they settle in quickly and nicely. I have a wedding in aug, the brides paid dresses have already been ordered, I hope the new girls will still fit into them! Before my pregnancy I was a 34a. I went up to a 36d now I'm a 36c but all that's left is skin. If I were to wear a double push up bra it would just be pushing up skin.

I'm going to rush this now and stop rambling because I hear someone tossing and turning. Anyone in Toronto that's gotten BA if you can please tell me where you got your post op bra, the ones with the zipper/hooks in the front that would be great!! I can't beleive it's only three weeks away!! Im feeling pretty numb. No emotions not as excited as u was expecting to be, or nervous.. I guess more axiohs if anything. Here I am rambling again....

Beat wishes to the ladies who are about to go under and happy healing to all the lucky ladies who've already gone! Oh! And happy Mother's Day!!!!! Xox

Oh one more thing, between my breasts I don't really have a gap and the skin is sort of thick I can't really explain and you can't see it in pictures it's something you would have to feel. So I'm going to post a pic of what I'm scared could happen. I did bring it up at the consultation and was told that dr j would be able to sew that down.

Hi. Glad you got in earlier!! Waiting is the hard part. I had my implants put in through my armpits and it was a piece of cake...... But I followed the instructions religiously. I have 2 Children, my youngest is 4. No lifting anything the first week, then 10 pounds the second, 20 the third...ect. I know people who got into trouble because they didn't listen. Can you get someone else to help?? Regardless of where the incision is you will need time before you can pick the baby up. I still get sore after doing light chores. I get to go back to the gym Wednesday but still only super light weights.

It was actually a horrible consultation lol I had to bring my 2 year old with me and she wasn't allowed in the room with me so she was crying out side in the waiting area with a bunch Of strangers. Their dad will be taking the week off of work, but that's about it :( my mom can always help on weekends. Im really glad I was able to book the surgery aonth after my first consultation because if it were any longer, the waiting game would be the death of me. Thanks for the advice I will try to keep the lifting at a minimal. Xx

I'm starting to get really anxious! I'm on this site religiously! Loving all the stories and all the progress :) makes me so much more excited! I still havnt done a thing. I sort of know what to expect but I don't think anyone can prepare themselves for the pain. I DID have two kids naturally with no drugs and that was pretty bad.. If the pain is like having a contraction in your breasts I just might kill myself lol anyways I hope everyone is doing well, time needs to hurry up and fly by so I can start posting progress pictures! I will be doing all my shopping sometime this week.

Xox happy healing ladies!
