Journey to NEW BOOBIES - Wilmington, DE

Hi everyone! my name is reese i am 21 years old, with 34DDD. Since i hit puberty (which was too soon) i have had big boobs. teachers from as early as 4th grade said i developed fast an didn't even realize i was a 4th grader (i was a new student that year and always got mistaken for a middle school-er). For years after i was very insecure about my body, til this day i don't take my shirt off anywhere public. when i was younger i got a lot of attention i didn't want and to add on to the stress i had back pains. i envied all my friends with small boobs. I finally took things seriously after a break-up. i decided i wanted to better myself and improve my insecurities and that is where i started getting serious about my BR. i went through PT first, that helped none, then i talked to a PS back in my hometown of Philadelphia (i live in Delaware now) I LOVED HIM! everyone in his practice was nice and highly educated and very informative about everything. It took a while for everything to kick off but once i got my approval letter from my insurance company i was stoked. they booked me for a January 10th appointment and since then i cannot stop watching you-tube videos and reading journey stories. NEW year NEW boobs and a NEW me. i'm nervous and excited and i'm praying time goes by fast. I will keep you posted.

Ok So yesterday 12/18/13. I went to sign forms with my surgeon. It was the last time i would see him before the big chop! i asked a lot of questions, like will i be getting a urine catheter (i hope i spelled that right) and how small could i go (i would love to be really small). He made me feel really comfortable. He warned me on the what could happen like, infections or a loss of a nipple (my eyes got really big when he said that, but he let me know that its like 1 in a million and has never happened to him.) he always told me that since i live an 1 hour away i may need to stay over night, i forgot to ask if someone could be with me over night. i dont like hospitals or the thought of being in them alone. i will be sad. do anyone know if they would let someone stay with me?
surgery is only 22 days away! YIKES!!!

Yesterday, 1/3/14 was my pre-op. I did not see my surgeon which was fine. They asked me about 100 questions about any illness or history of complications with anything. They also took about 5 tubes of blood. They told me things I could not do this week like take any ibuprofen only Tylenol and told me that after 12am the day of my surgery I cannot eat or drink ANYTHING. They also gave me these towels to use to clean myself the night before surgery and the morning of. They said I could not use a towel and I needed to air dry with a fan or blow dryer. Weird. Did this happen to anyone?
I will know what time I go in for surgery the day before.
I've been getting real nervous. My hearts beats really fast when I think about the room and me getting put to sleep. But everyone tells me the same thing. That it will be fine and it's going to be ok. I think just the waiting and thinking about it makes me nervous. I hope this week goes by fast so I can get it over with. I will post before pics sometime this week. :)
