Getting It Right
I have mixed felling about my procedure. Sometimes I am happy and sometimes scared cause you don't really know what they will look like and how your healing will be but one thing I do know is that I am going to leave it in God's hands. My husband was very supportive of my decision but he said he really didn't mine the size of my breast.

Hi there :) Congratulations on making such a big decision! If you have a history of pain or discomfort from your breasts your going to be over the moon at the change in weight afterwards. Also be strong in your faith that all will heal and look well. Stressing or worry can hinder your healing and isn't healthy for you. Take comfort in this site like i did and try not to be frightened by other people experiences in life unfortunately despite all the good the bad things stand out simply because they 'seem' bigger. 5this is not so. :) My partner was impartial to my reduction and said he was happy for me but still liked my old breasts which upset me slightly because i felt he didnt care for my change because he wasnt reacting as excitedly as i was but truthfully he is male and loves me and is simply just happy that im happy. Later he admitted that my breasts now look better in a different way because they are up were they should be but said that he never previously disliked my size. Its an emotional roller coaster with lots of insecure feelings and small defining moments you feel really accomplished and proud. Enjoy it is my advice and love every minute because its wonderful. :) Goodluck!

I'm so happy to see and hear that I am not the only one struggling about a breast reduced. I currently struggle with heavy breast and constant attention, which I hope will become limited once the procedure is completed. Don't worry your feelings are normal and you are not in this along. Please keep me posted.
