$13,000
I've been wanting a some new "betties" for 12 years now. I never thought I would actually get them though!!! So excited and nervous! Mom of 4 kids (his, mine, ours). BF 2.
I've had my (one and only) consultation as well as my preop appt and am scheduled for surgery on April 28th. Originally scheduled for May 16th but hubby will be in New Orleans during that time. And ain't no way I'm doing this without his help! Also makes me nervous that I had to push out my surgery date because we are going to Cancun mid June!
I was originally scheduled to get a lift and implants then changed to just a implants at my preop. Well I will be scheduling another meeting with my PS next week to most likely add the lift back in there.
I have pseudoptosis or glandular sagging. I was really worried about the scarring that come with a lift and was thinking I could get away without having one. But, after I posted some pics on the doctors forum asking what they thought it came down to this.....I can either have large saggy breasts or perky ones with some scars. The whole point for my getting new "jugs" is to not have to wear those uncomfortable padded, push-up bras anymore and be able to wear all the clothes that I can't now. So perky and scarred it is!
I just need to trust my PS that he knows what he's doing and will give me the look I'm going for. I picked one of the top rated in my state for a reason! :)
I'm currently a saggy, deflated 34C/D in a padded push-up bra. Going with 420cc Silicone under the muscle with a full lift.
I think what I'm most nervous about now is if my hubby will be able to take good care of me during my recovery. :/ I think I'd rather stay in a hospital for a week with a nurse than at home with my hubs, lol. Might have to recruit some of my girlfriends to pop over for a few hours a day to help out.

We have Lift off! Or more like back on! ;)
Talked to my PS today via phone and I'm terrible at talking to people in person or on the phone. One of those awesome introvert traits I guess. But, hey look at me I can type away like nobody's business! Okay back to my post....so I'm defnitely getting the lift. It's all scheduled and back on. I'm so thankful for this site. I just needed some reassurance that I wouldn't look like frankenboob all scarred up and ugly from the lift. Most pics online show ladies scars shortly after surgery. Not many a year or so out. Also I took my NOT introvert friend with me to my preopp because me darn hubby just doesn't have the time or see why he needs to be there....anyways. And I know that friend had some influence on my choices I made in the office that day as well as cost. But, I would rather pay it all at once now and get it done then have another surgery down the road. :)

We are very similar!! I'm 36 also, but just have one daughter that I BF. We're doing some outside bikini stuff in June so we'll see how that goes! I'm a little more introverted too and I'm a little worried about my husband taking care of me! He just had shoulder surgery in Feb and I took good care of him so hopefully he'll pay it forward. He's actually really good, he's tough though and always wants me to be tough. I know he'll be helpful with meds, changing dressings, etc. I'm worried about 1. Him seeing frankenboobs and being turned off forever and 2. The foods he'll try to give me (and that I'll be tempted to eat). I'm planning on stocking the fridge beforehand with stuff I can eat or at least have all the ingredients so that if I tell him something he can make it. I haven't told him I want him to go with me to my pre-op yet, we'll see how that goes. He's supportive of the surgery, so that's good. He just said he'd take a week off work, I was like, um no. Surgery is a Thursday so just that day should be fine! Anyway, I'm really excited for you and can't wait to hear how it goes!

Oh I just love you already! Sounds like my hubby too! He's a strong silent type. Sweet as heck but kind of clueless when it comes to women and our needs. Lol I'm sure our guys will do ok though. My surgery is on a Monday and he's taking the week off. Which I'm really surprised about. It's usually so hard to get him to take a day off. I'm having a couple of my girlfriends stop by during the week to check on me. I only have 17 days till i get my new girls! My hubby didn't go to my consult or pre-op. Do you have help at home after your surgery? You're gonna need it! When's your surgery date?

I know, when I saw your post I had to comment! Oh yeah, my hubs knows nothing about women, but he thinks he does, which is worse! He has 3 brothers and his mom isn't the girly type. I'm not sure if I'd call my husband silent, haha! He speaks his mind for sure but he's very strong and tough. And stubborn! The only reason he let me help him after his surgery is because he really had no choice. He got some kidney stones AND pneumonia that knocked him on his ass. So we did the whole setting the alarm for pain meds all night thing for a few nights. My surgery is on a Thursday and I figured I'd be ok if he worked Friday? Then I'd have him all weekend. Maybe I'm underestimating how much I'll need him? I have a friend who lives nearby (within 10-15 mins) who's retired and home most of the day and a lady in my neighborhood that I know would help if needed. Our daughters have school and soccer together (my daughter doesn't really care for the girl though) and the mom is a Nosy Rosy. Don't really want the whole soccer team and 5th grade class to know I got my boobs done. I'm telling those on a need to know basis that I'm getting a reduction, which is 1/3 of the truth. So I just read one of BethH's links about breast Aug terminology and I saw that frankenboob has a different meaning than I meant. I meant all cut-up, bruised, and bloody. How old are all the kids? Do "his" live with you full time? My daughter is 10 :)

By the way, I'm not a doctor but I think you'd be a lot happier with a lift. From what I've seen on here the scars aren't that bad. And it's not like you're a dancer making $ off of them being perfect (I hope not anyway or I may have offended you). They'll be covered, and will look awesome, and the only people seeing the scars will be you and your husband. And if both of you are ok with them...Check out some pics of implants only that really needed a lift. Awful. I can't wait to see how they turn out!! Your wish boobs are my wish boobs too :). Only I can't see myself ever wearing something like that to show em off! But a little more weight off me and a nice rack and I guess you never know!

No, I'm not a dancer so we're good there lol. My darn laptop just deleted my whole reply to you arrrrg. But, anyways....Our kids are 13,12,10 and 5. We only have his daughters every other weekend. We have my son and our daughter full time. I wonder how I'll dress when i get my new girls! I'm pretty conservative for the most part. Very little cleavage. But, excited about the possibilities of what I will be able to wear that I haven't been able to yet. :) 15 days and counting!!!
Here is a list of helpful recovery supplies you may want to have on hand prior to your surgery. Great idea on having your girlfriends drop in, although I think your hubby will be able to swing it!
Keep us posted!
