I am all booked for my BA on Nov. 8th!! I cant believe it!! Some days I am so excited, some days I feel like I should cancel & some days I just don't think about it...almost like its not real!! What an emotional roller coaster!! This site has helped me so much!! I have learned a lot & I have a better idea of what to expect with the recovery etc...

I am 33, 122lbs, 5'5" & a mother of 2. After breastfeeding I am totally deflated, not that I had much more than a handful to begin with!! But now I am SO flat! When I go to the gym I wonder why I wear a sports bra!! I feel like I have the chest of a boy!! LOL When I went for my consult I told the PS I wanted to be a full B/small C. He recommended 255cc Silicone unders.
When I went I had not done much research yet & didn't really think I would go through with it. Then I booked it!! Now I'm nervous about the size etc...not sure if I should go 275cc or 235cc...I feel like I cant remember what the sizers looked like!! But I live in the islands & cant just go see my PS when I want without a flight, hotel, rented car etc...gets expensive!! Freaks me out a bit!! I am meeting with PS the day before but nervous that he may not have different sizes in stock if I change my mind (hubby didn't come to consult but will be there next one) Aaaahhhhh!!!

Can I recommend 275? With your height you need a slightly bigger implant. I have 225 overs but with unders you will lose ccs and you do not want to regret going with your smaller choice, for sure, unless you just want a small change. It's a lot of money for a small change --which is why boob greed rears its ugly head after surgery

Starting to freak out!!

OK so I went for my pre-op appointment on Monday. I am more confused now than before. I brought my concerns to him about me being worried that 255cc was too big but somehow after trying more sizers on & more measurements he recommended 300cc mod+!! Now I am really freaking out!! He had concluded that we switch to mod + for less width which I agree. I liked how the sizers looked etc but I just cant seem to wrap my head around this!! Tonight I am making rice sizers to see AGAIN..I am about a week out & feel so confused! I think I should go with 275 mod + for my 5'4" 120 lb frame. Any thoughts??

You have to be confident in your decision. I didn't know what I wanted , but knew I wanted to have cleavage. I went to my PS and said pretend I'm your wife and make me look hot, without looking fake. Time will tell if theyre too big after they drop, but I'm confident that they will look great. Its hard not to get boobie greed when yourespending all that money !

If your PS says 300, go with that, for sure. You have the height for it. The difference between 275 and 300 is extremely small, especially with mods. Do it!! You will not regret it; I'm telling you. You cannot easily change them if they are too small. And 300 is not a big implant.

I have the same surgery date as you! I totally understand your concern for size at this point cuz it's so close and SOOO permanent lol! I would say go with your gut when you see yourself in the mirror with sizers. My preop is Tuesday (tomorrow!!!!) and I'm nervous about what size to go with without looking enormous or sagging after dropping.

I hope your surgery went well! I'm home now after my surgery and feeling good just lots of pressure. How are you holding up?
November 8, 2013
Yay!! I'm home too & all went well! I feel fine...almost too fine so I'm not sure if the worst is yet to come?!? I'm in my recliner about to put a movie on!! Glad to know we are doing well!! My PS nurse said today would be good 2mrw would be a bit worse & then day 3 could be the worst then expect an upswing from there...all dependent on our personal pain tolerance though!! Right now I'm all smiles!! :)
