30 Years Old, 2 Kids, 34aa, Hoping to Be a Full B - Wichita, KS

Pregnancy with pcos is totally possible, just takes some extra effort. :) I'll try to get some updated pics posted soon

Thank you! I've been meaning to post updated pics. It's amazing how real and natural they look. Congrats on your procedure too, great results! I am so comfortable in my own body now, a feeling that is very new to me. Makes it all worth it.

I'm happy to share! I ended up with 270cc sientra silicone textured implants. Moderate profile. Seems like a small implant size in comparison to most women but it fits my frame perfectly for the looki was going for, not too big, not too small. I'll try to post some more updated pics. They've settled nicely.

Sure, I'd love to see! And I only ended up with 213 cc silicone high profile. I haven't heard of anyone else receiving that "small" of an implant before, so it was a little bit of a shock when I heard that's what I ended up with. But, my surgeon said that he tried the larger size on me and that in order to be able to get the incision closed, the implants would have taken on a rectangular shape in my chest. Yikes, don't want rectangle boobs! I guess I have a very narrow chest cavity so I'm hoping that once things settle down, I'll be happy with the size. Thanks for sharing with me!!

Mine had a square shape in the beginning, but they have since rounded and dropped. Good luck with your recovery! Get lots of rest and take care of yourself!

My ps really didn't give me options but I'm happy with the scar placement. A lot of my post op pain was in my arm pit area (guessing from muscle soreness) so to have sutures there too wouldn't have been fun. Also shaving arm pits is a little more difficult because the implant hasn't fully dropped so it makes shaving a little more difficult. Throwing sutures into that I can imagine wouldn't have been fun either. Just my own general opinions.

I'm making more of an effort to relax but unfortunately I've been dealing with some other health issues unrelated to my surgery. Think I mentioned the stomach issues I was having, they have come back once, but I'm hoping it was related to pushing myself. Then Sunday night I had a bad allergic reaction to something (not sure what) and broke out in horrible hives everywhere. So right now I'm fighting that coming and going. On three different meds trying to keep it under control. Trying not to get down about it, but feel like I haven't really enjoyed my new additions because I'm wrapped up in trying to figure out what is going on with me. I don't have a history of stomach issues or allergies so this is all a mystery to me. Just ready to get back to a normal life.

I'm sorry you are having such a hard time. Do you think your allergic reaction was internal or external? I'm sure you have thought about all of this, but just in case, in your state of mind.............have you tried a new soap, detergent, lotion, new sheets, clothes, blankets? How about food/drink? Other than your meds, have you eaten or drank anything new? Could the stomach issues and allergic reaction be related?

I think it's internal. No new soap or detergent or clothes. We tried some new frozen hamburger patties Sunday night that were pre seasoned. Dr thinks it was that, plus cooking spices over a grill changes the chemistry make up making you more susceptible to a reaction (doctors words). The spices in the patties were not disclosed on the box, it just said "spices". Helpful. I'm not convinced that was the issue but I don't have any better ideas. I'm off all meds from surgery, haven't started or really on anything else. I feel fine otherwise, just the hives. Dr didn't think the stomach pain and this were related, and the pain I had is completely gone, even the tenderness that lingered. I'm really at a loss, and that frustrates me the most. I even looked up and asked my doctor if the implants could cause this and everything I hear or find says no. Trying to stay off of google searching symptoms because it's going to tell you horrific diseases. Last thing I need is to get freaked out. Doctor said it'll take at least a few days for the hives to go away and they put me on a round of prednisone which lasts 16 days. I'm supposed to call back if the hives are still around when the prednisone is over. I'm really praying this all passes by then. I'm going out of town for 5 days for work starting this Saturday so kind of nervous about that. I don't like leaving my family regardless, but to leave when I have weird things happening is scary.

I've been doing nothing but relaxing I'm so ready to get out of the house I might to to linch today with my girls

You should! Just don't over do it!

Hives are still coming back on a daily basis but not as severe as they were initially. I'm getting ready to leave town for work for 5 days so PRAYING that I don't have any other weird health things come up. As long as I stay on my meds the hives seem to be getting better. Hopefully they are gone completely by the time my meds are done.

I was totally in your spot, I over analyze everything! Just keep asking questions but also know where to cut yourself off and trust your decision and follow through with it. I'm happy to try to help with any questions you have. I love, love, love my size. Very natural looking even 3 weeks out and proportionate to my size. No regrets. I stayed away from any anti anxiety medicine, but I know lots of other ladies found it useful. Honestly once I got to about a week out, I got very calm about it. The steps were laid out, no more decisions, I just had to follow the plan at that point!

I would say take the meds they really help you relax. You'll also really need the pain meds after i missed mine by an hour and I woke up in so much pain. This is only day 4 for me but I've learned so much by asking questions and lots of them. It's also really important to have a support system in place you'll need lots of help. Best of luck if you have more questions just ask.
