My boobies finally blossomed!!!

[Sparkles2303]

well, i did it! it was quite an adventure getting to this point, but i had my surgery wed and so far am pretty happy. i got 450cc's in the right and 420cc's in the left. i think the size is perfect...def wouldn't want any bigger and of course not smaller. When i look down they dont look all that big but in the mirror they look gigantic. everytime i go to the bathroom i peek at them

well tues night i went to leave for my dr' office (almost 3 hrs away). most of you know i did not tell my mom. well the surgery center called and left a msg on when to be there on my home phone. so after work i raced home and deleted it so she didnt hear it. that was nerve wracking. then the closer we got to rochester the more sick i felt.

all night tues night i was sweating and shaking and crying. i didnt think i could do it and go through with it. i even called the ps wed morning and told him what happened all night and said i didnt think i could do this. he told me to come down and get my vitals checked out.

so i did. he was wonderful. he held my hands and was likejust tell me why you're scared, etc. i cried right up until the iv, i was just so worried about everything. saying goodbye to my bf before was really hard. that sent me over the edge. next thing i know i am waking up with boobie!

i felt pretty good wed. ok yesterday but i think i over did it. not so good today. kinda queezy today and my tummy hurts. going to lay back down now. just wanted to post a little.

Whew! What a journey for you! But you made it!!! WOOHOOOO!

This ba business can be awfully emotional. It sounds like you picked the perfect ps though! Glad to hear you're happy with your size so far. It only gets BETTER!!

You rest up and take good care of yourself. Post some more when you're up to it.

i feel a little better today. moving doesn't hurt as much but my tummy hurts a lot. must be the pain meds and everything. is it normal to cry during recovery ?? cuz i sure did last night. i was just so frustrated that i need help getting up and moving. and i feel so bad for my bf. he hasn't left my side but he must be so bored out of his mind. he has been watching gilmore girls with me all day, and coloring lol. i cried last night cuz i just want to be able to do stuff. i thought this is the worst idea i've ever had. he was good though he said i'm doing a good job with everything and its just gonna get better from here. and i'm gonna be so happy.

i didn;t post too much about my surgery last night so now i can. wed morning like i said, i did not think i could do this. after talking to my ps i took a shower and went down there. said goodbye to my bf for like twenty mins lol, then went in. they checked my vitals and i wouldn't let them start an iv or anything until i talked with my dr. he was doing a surgery so i had to wait a little bit. when he came out we talked for a while. then i let the nurse put the iv in. it didn't hurt as much as i thought it would but it wasn't pleasant, thats for sure.

then the anesthesiologist came in and asked me a bunch of questions. and i asked him a bunch of questions. then he put like 4 different shots into my iv. i started to feel a little loopy from that.

from that point, i feel like i remember a mask being put on my face and switching beds, but i'm not really sure lol. i do emember them saying julie, wake up we're all done. i went in at 10 and was out by 11, in the car at noon. so pretty quick. they called my bf when i went in and came out, and he got really worried that it was so quick. he was going to get me flowers while i was in there but he didn't have any time lol. i woke up very sore, but my chest wasn't as tight as i thought it was going to be. i was expecting to feel like something was sitting on it, but it wasn't. i was not nauseous at all, and was very happy about that!!! i was thirsty, so the nurse gave me water and crackers and some very gross liquid pain meds. that tasted awful, but worked well.

about 20 mins later i went to the bathroom then sat in a wheel chair. she helped me get dressed and then i was home. i got home and ate and took my antibiotic and vit c pill. layed in bed and dozed off all day long wed. i was not nauseous or anything for the rest of the day. i was really worried about that so yay!!

thurs i saw my dr real quick before heading home. he said everything looked pretty good, swollen but not bad. i have an app.t next thurs with him again. thurs we went and walked around a mall while we were waitng for check in time at our hotel, but i think i over did it. i thought i felt ok but yesterday i did not feel ok at all. too much walking i think.

yesterday i slept a lot of the day, then we went for a ride. we went to the drive in last night cuz the car is actually pretty comfortable. and aside from my crying, had on ok day yesterday. today all i've done is watch gilmore girls and sit around. i get up every once and a while to walk around , but not like i did on thurs.

i have that breathing machine to use and i've been using that but it hasn't been getting very high.

i took pics on day 1. if i can figure out how to post them i will!! i am allowed to shower today so my mom is going to help me with that now. a little nervous about that...its gonna be weird washing my boobs lol!

thanks for reading

Glad to hear you made it through and doing well!!! Yah, how did your mom take it? Seriously, been there girl, I was TERRIFIED to tell my mom b/c she is so against doing things to your body that she things is unnecessary etc (maybe it's an Asian thing too b/c I freakin scared of my mama and I'm 34 with 3 kids of my own lol)...but she has been super supportive through it all and has been a wonderful help with my kids while i'm recovering!!!
