Yesterday was my pre-op appt. I have to say I am extremely anxious and quite nervous about the pain. Brad went with me to this appointment to help listen in and just be supportive. He’s going to be taking care of me post surgery, so it’s probably good that he hears most of this first hand. Of course they drew blood and for those who didn’t know, I’m hemophobic. I know, lame. Anyway, I was already nervous and that made it even worse. The took all the Before pictures, we tried on the implants again and I decided to go with 450cc’s. They gave me all of my prescriptions so I could fill them before hand. I apparently can no longer get supplements in my smoothies-no more trimbek and powerbek! Bummer. I have no idea how I am going to get through these next ten days. I am totally anxious!

History
I made peace with being a small-breasted woman at the age of 19. I never had any qualms with my size, and never gave augmentation a thought. Of course, then I had children, and my perky small B’s skyrocketed to small D’s. This was quite the change for me and I’m still astonished at how quickly it happened. Nevertheless, all good things must come to an end. Shortly after I finished breastfeeding my second daughter, my breasts returned to their previous size. In addition to what I had before, I now had all the extra skin to hold those small D’s. That was when I first started to research breast implants. I’ve learned a lot about breast implants over the years, and I’m here to tell you I know all the risks and definitely know what I’m getting into. This is definitely something for me! I’m not going to say my boyfriend won’t benefit, that would be silly, but I will tell you that my decision was made based on the way I feel and Brad loves me the way I am regardless of my breast size.
Doctors Appts
I went to two doctors. I know, it doesn’t seem like a lot, but the second doctor my wonderful physician Dr. Brett recommended. I was very comfortable with the doctor and his ideas when I met him and knew he would be a solid choice.
Dr. Sanders is charging me $6,900 for my augmentation. I am financing $5,900 and the rest is paid out of pocket. Some of you may remember the boob tree from my birthday! Your contributions were used well! I decided to go with a Dual Plane implant, Silicone, with an under-the-breast incision. I have also decided to go with 425cc’s. I know this sounds big, but it really isn’t! I tried on several sizes of breasts and these were the best ones for me.

You may wonder why the over abundance of information. I honestly just don’t want to get a lot of why’s? and how’s? This is my story and I’m sticking to it!
