New boobs!! 300cc smooth round moderate plus profile gel

WORTH IT$4,500
Ok this is my first time doing any sort of blogging! And about something so personal!! But I love reading everyone else's and I think I helps so much for someone who is thinking of getting breast implants. I'm at the beginning. I've had my consultation and already picked a date to get boobs! My consultation went really well. A lot less weird than I thought it would be. The doctor made me feel really at ease. My main problem was trying to decide a size. I'm very tall (almost 5'11") but I'm also very slender. Have no curves. I'm barely an A cup. On a good day:) so everything I tried on seemed big! I just kept picturing a stick figure with two huuggge melons!!! I had done my research and looked at a million pictures of boobs (weird to say - haha). So I went in thinking id be around 350 CCs. So when I liked the 250 CCs I was really confused! I don't want to get too big for sure. But I also don't want to wish I had gone bigger! So it took me a while to pick a surgery date because I wanted to feel more sure of a size before anything else happened! It's a huge decision and one you can't really go back on easily! So I called and asked if I could come back in just to try on sizes.

Before pics
I didn't know it was possible to think my boobs were any smaller. But after taking these pics...:( as you can see I'm not working with much! I went back to try sizes and feel pretty good about the 300s. I'm so excited to go bra shopping! And actually have a boobs to put in it! I've also told myself I'm not going to buy any new tops until after the surgery! I have a feeling I'll have to get rid of most of my tops in my closet!
I have a question for those of you who've already had the BA. How long did you take off work? My surgery is on Thursday morning and I took off thurs-mon. Is that enough? I sit at a computer all day.

Good luck! I went with 350 but feel I could have carried more. I'm shorter than you but have big hips and butt. I went bsck to my desk job 5 days po, so you may be okay

Do you wish you had gone bigger? I hear lots of girls say that. Glad to hear you went back with the same amount of time I've got off. Hoping that's enough!

I'm glad I didn't go bigger when I think of: added pain/recovery time, shopping for bras/swimming suits in an uncommon size (what I seem to be so far, 34D, isn't easy to find on the sale rack), jogging, sagging and my husband's preference.
I wish I would have gone bigger when I: come onto this site! when I want my girls to be noticed in normal clothes and they really are hidden, when I want my waist to look smaller in comparison, when I see other women with bigger girls than me.
My bwd (measurement of the breast) was only 11cm, so I got the biggest I could safely get without worrying extra about the implant folding or rippling, and didn't really want to go for Ultra HP just to get some more CCs. So how big I went was kind of out of my hands, which makes the decision a tad easier. I hope your recovery goes smoothly!

Hey my surgery is in April and I am taking a week off. I sit at a computer all day too. My surgeon said I will feel back to normal in 72 hours but I wanted to take the week off anyways. i'm excited to see your results!
February 23, 2014
My doctor said the same thing. Made it seem like no big deal! Having a hard time believing that:)

Hi,I'm very new to all this stuff,but have ready hundreds of posts over the last few weeks! I had mine done this morning 255cc under the muscle,so far pain wise I'm Ok more discomfort then anything else (&my back hurts from lying down all day) I should get to see them tomorrow,at the moment I just keep looking down ha ha! I'm sure back at work on Friday so how recovery goes smoothly-driving by then slightly concerns me!
February 23, 2014
Today?! How are you feeling? I hope they are just what you wanted! I'm sure I'll be looking at them nonstop too:) So you've got 6 days off? I took 5 - hoping that's good enough!
February 23, 2014
You should be fine with the time you are taking off. 350 sounds like a good size for you. Good luck to you!

New boobs are 2 weeks away!
I'm getting my BA two weeks from today! Everyday it freaks me out more and more. I really want boobs! But only if everything goes smoothly! Haha wish I could be sure of that going in. My pre-op appt is tomorrow and I'm pretty excited to get things finalized. Weird I'm excited about shelling out thousands of dollars?! :) one thing a friend just brought up (an overly-against-me-getting-a-BA-friend) is the anesthesia. When you're out do they stick a tube down your throat? I hadn't even thought about it and I don't see many postings about it! That freaks me out big time!
Also adding pics of my rice sizing fun:) I wanted to see how they looked compared to the sizers in the office. The office sizers seemed bigger but I can't reallllly tell! Considering the rice isn't quite the right shape:)
(I think I did 1.25 cups for around 300cc)

We were about the same size pre-op! I also joggeled with my size back and forth and I ended up telling my PS "you decided. No bigger than 350. No smaller than 275" and he went with 350cc, which I am soooo happy with. It makes me proportionate with my bubble butt and now I have a butt, little waste, and boobs! Haha
Honestly, you might want to just describe to your surgeon what look you are going for and be specific. I wanted the most natural size and look so I went with sientra anatomical shaped textured submuscular.
I didn't see in your review what type of implant you're going for...unless I missed it (reading on an iPhone is hard haha). Best of luck to you and definitely keep us updated!!!!

Also, I saw you asked about the endotracheal tube (tube down the throat). I didn't have that, they actually used a mask but it had an extension that reached into the back of my mouth but stopped at my soft palate. I can't remember what they called it. I would definitely ask your surgeon and see, because yes, entubation can be pretty irritating on your throat but a lot of places are starting to move away from it, in case of emergencies.
And as far as the anesthesia...if there is a board certified anesthesiologist (which I'm sure your surgeon has) you will be in good hands! Anesthesia these days is so safe, I work in veterinary medicine and even there it's extremely rare for anything bad to happen to a young healthy patient :) you'll do great!

Is it sad I don't even know what type of implants I'm getting? I don't remember any talk of anatomical though so. But I'm know I'm doing silicone and submuscular. I'm going to tell my doc the no bigger/smart than thing too. But I feel like mine will be 275-300. Haha not a big range there. But I'm pretty nervous about feeling they're too big. If i had a bubble buttt I'd probably be ok with bigger. But unfortunately I don't :) I'll be doing my squats daily now for sure!

I had the same fears of going too big too! I feel like if you trust your surgeon, which I did with mine, and you just tell him you want it to be natural looking and proportionate with your body, you'll get exactly what you want :) I had the mind set of "I don't care how big they are...just having something is going to be awesome!" Haha I know it's hard to choose, especially when you have sooo many people saying so many different things. My advice: I stopped asking anyone but my surgeon. Although we all have gone through and want to be there for each other, everyone's recovery, everyone's reactions and everyone's lifestyle is different from each other. Only your surgeon has been able to discuss everything with you, and make sure you write down any questions that pop in your head and ask him next time you see him! I literally had 85 questions written down to ask my PS and his nurse at my pre-op haha. So ask away, that's why they're there!!
