Pre op is scheduled for Monday Nov 26th. Nervous and excited. Doctor Robbins wants me to go larger since I have a broader chest area. Going back and forth between silicone and saline. Currently my thoughts are 500cc silicone. I work out daily doing hot yoga and will miss it terribly. How am I not going to practice for over a month!

I am also going to Dr Robbins for a MM. My pre op is 12/11. I am excited for you!! I plan to go with silicone, but no idea on cc yet...I was thinking around 375. Totally have no clue tho! I also need the loft due to breastfeeding. Erin said he always goes u fee the muscle and provides a pain/medicine ball for direct comfort the first 3 days. Looking forward to hearing about your experience and results!

Pre Op

So I had my pre op appt today and I have to say I am more than excited! Dr Robbins vectra imaging had been updated since my last appt and they were able to show me what I COULD look like with the lift and implant. I was amazed and it took all the guess work out! The newer silicone implant is what we decided to go with, it's filled more than the older one to give me a rounder shape on top but more natural than the saline implant. I was really happy with the appearance and feel. I got my prescriptions and all of my to dos and not to dos.
Only 15 days to go and I will look (on top) like a new woman! Oh we decided to go with round high profile 485cc silicone.
The super high was a little bit too out there for my liking. My measurement across was 13inches if that makes sense to anyone following me.
We talked about lifting my toddler and he said if I have too, to use my biceps only and not my chest. Also no working out for one month but I can start leasurly walking after a week. No alcohol or NSAIDs from now until at least three days after surgery and to start taking a multivitamin to help with healing. Hope this info helps anyone else out there.

I'm getting 500 hp and a lift on the 13th wish you luck. The only thing I'm worried about is I guess I have a lot of muscle that may only get me to a 250cc or so. I'm excited nervous good luck

I had surgery yesterday mid morning. Everything went just great. Don't remember much of the ride home at all nor the post op.
It feels great to be in my own bed but wow the pain can be intense if your not taking your meds as scheduled. Hopefully today I am brave enough to shower and I'll try to get some picture updates.
