Let me first start by saying I LOVE my body! It's grown 6 beautiful and amazing children and breastfed each and every one of them anywhere from 13 months to 2.5 years. I just did a gentle wean with my last baby who is now 20 months old. I exercise regularly but don't obsess, just try to stay active with my kids. I work part-time and I'm enrolled in school part-time (currently) and plan on becoming a full-time student in a couple years.
My breasts have always been small, but perky, like most of you I'm sure. When breastfeeding they were as big as a D in the first few months then leveled out to a nice full B. I'm amazed at how much volume is now gone. I've thought about a breast augmentation since the birth of number 4. I don't think I would ever have had the courage to do it until a close friend of mine had hers done back in November.
I met with my PS back in January and called to schedule the surgery a week later. I waited until June so I could breastfeed a little longer and so my husband could be home with me for a longer period of time after the surgery. When I met with my surgeon I had not done ANY research. He suggested round, high profile 300cc silicone. I've e-mailed him a few times since the consult and have decided I'm more comfortable with saline and possibly doing 350-400cc but nothing is final yet. I have my pre-op appt on May 27 and I'm hoping to try on the sizers again and see what his recommendation is for me. I'm also really worried about high profile, I do NOT want a lot of projection but I do want fullness and that nice slope natural breasts have. I mean I'm 36 not 18! I want to look like a woman that had 6 kids, if that makes any sense.
Anyway, I'll hopefully get the courage to post some pictures in the next couple weeks :)

Wow, with six kids, work and school, I don't know how you do it! Glad you're making some time to do something special for yourself. You might want to start by posting some wish boob pictures. These can also be helpful for your doctor. Wishing you the best on your journey!

I completely understand your wishes, fears, & that your someone's mom. I went through similar feelings & concerns. Wish pics and complete honesty with your PS about what you want is the key. I never even tried sizers. I gave her my wish pics, wore my favorite push up bra ( that is what I wanted to look like without a bra), & was clear about looking natural. I really felt like she "got me". She definitely delivered. If your confident in your PS they will deliver. Best wishes.

I'm going to start adding wish pics. I wasn't totally sure how to do it. So I'll add the pics with a caption thanking the realself member!

I definitely never thought I would be at this point. Some weeks felt like forever!! I've read a lot of posts about women being a month out and they seemed more prepared than me. Is there something I should be doing? No clue. Just waiting for my preop appt to go over everything with my PS for the last time. I'm not as concerned with size as I was when I first started researching. I think 325-375cc will be perfect. I am worried about profile! He suggested high profile but I don't want a ton of upper pole. Attaching my original wish pic, wish she posted more results!!
