It's time! Surgery is booked for 7/21/16 and I'm excited.

I've never been happy with the size of my breasts, but didn't think I'd actually do anything about it. Two kids later, the story has changed. I LOVED the size I had while breastfeeding, and I felt so confident! My clothes fit so well, and I felt sexy (except for the leaking boobs and nursing bras, but I digress). I want that size back!

So, I haven't finalized all the details with my surgeon yet, but I'm leaning toward 350cc smooth round silicone, moderate plus, submuscular. I think that will get me back to the size I had while breastfeeding, without being large and obvious. (I wish I had taken photos of my boobs back then!)

I'm excited to have it done, but I'm nervous about the recovery! My kids are 1 and 3.

Dr. Bruno and his staff have been truly wonderful, from start to finish. He is very thorough and professional, and he patiently answered all my questions during the pre-op phase. I am only five days post-op now, but I'm already quite pleased with the results and I have been pleasantly surprised by the relatively easy recovery. Overall, I'm just tickled with the outcome and I'd do it all over again.

My surgery is the same day but you're a lot younger than me, I'm 51. My kids are grown so only my hubby and I know. I'm excited and nervous too. Hope I love them but can conceal them when I need to! Good luck. I am getting the same size and type as well, incision through the nipple. I am worried about waking up in pain and sick to my stomach, but my surgeon does amazing work.

Thanks, me too! I sometimes think I'm being ridiculous and my boobs are fine but the before pics I took today help me realize I want the surgery.

I understand. I was just having a moment of "this is ridiculous. Why am I doing this?" But it's something I've wanted for a long time, and I think it will make a big difference in my body image, over all.

Mainly, I start to feel guilty that my husband will have to handle both kids by himself while I'm recovering - on top of helping me with basic self care for a couple of days. But, hey, I went through labor and birth, so this is his chance to pitch in, right? (Only half serious. He's a wonderful dad, and very helpful.)

Trying the 350cc rice sizers in a nursing bra that used to fit. I love this size.

Being 5'9" as well I thought I should mention - your waist will look TINY after you get implants! Just another perk haha! Can't wait to see your post op pics!
