$7,200
I've always been flat chested. Then after breastfeeding three babies for the first year of their lives, what little I had got worse. I absolutely loved nursing my babies and the convenience of always having their meal ready and the bonding times with them. But after they weaned I missed having boobs! My youngest is 9 years old and I don't plan on having anymore babies.
This is something I've thought about doing since my second child was weaned 16 years ago. My boyfriend is supportive of my decision. Some of you reading this will understand that's important. I would still be doing this even if he wasn't on board but I'm glad he is.
As you can see in my pictures (yikes! Can't believe I'm putting these online and yikes! Can you see why with two previous marriages and my current relationship I rarely take my shirt off during sex and only if the lights are off. As for showering with my boyfriend.... It's not as good as it could be if I wasn't always cringing at the thought of him seeing these shriveled things on my chest.
Had my consultation on May 4th. It went pretty well. Haven't talked about size yet. Only decision so far is: mentor, silicone, round, smooth. Under the muscle (obviously because of my lack of breast tissue and boney looking chest). Had a rude reality check before leaving his office. At that point I was a smoker. About a pack a day... Ugh. Anyway he plainly stated that he refuses to complete surgery unless the patient is nicotine free for minimum 6 weeks. So the night of May 4th, before bed, I smoked my last cigarette. Freaked out in the morning, snapped at anyone and anything in my line of sight, ended up crying for awhile. Then went and bought a vapor mod system with three bottles of 0 mg juice. Still dealt with nic withdrawals but it's gotten easier. Thank goodness for the placebo effect of blowing out vapor. I haven't smoked a cigarette since that night and I plan on remaining smoke free for the rest of my life. Who knew a boob job would be my deciding factor and motivator to finally quit?!
OK, wrapping this up... I'm able to only take 8 days off work. I hope that's enough. I'm a CNA. Yeah, I know, this could be a problem with lifting restriction. I work with great coworkers so it should be OK till restrictions are lifted. So my pre-op is scheduled for June 8th. That's when size will be discussed, measurements taken, lab work done, check written, etc. I'm sharing pics of my current reality and some wish boobs too.

Getting items ready and trying to not count the days
Yeah. Trying to not count the days. Would be like trying to not breathe. 6 days till pre-op and 20 days till surgery.
I have ice packs ready. I found Thera Pearl breast packs in the baby section at Walmart. I bought two sets. I also got two of the rectangle shaped sports packs of that same brand. I'll post site pics of these products.
I bought zip front sports bras and a few hook n eye front closure sports bras as well. I have to admit I've already tried a few on over my most heavily padded bra. I like how it looks!
I also picked up some Bromelain and Arnica. I've read about these supplements on here. Not 100% sure I'm going to be using them and if I do I need to read up on them some more first. If any of you ladies want to give me some input that would be great!
