			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>well well where do i begin......<br />
it only seemed like yest when i joined this site...<br />
now my new girls are like two months old..<br />
<br />
i left melb airport on the 16th of oct its a nine hour flight so im already so so nervous... the flight went suprisingly quick though must of been all the excitement... at the airport i was given a map to where my agent would be waiting for me after 30mins trying to find them i finially see a sign a tiny one mind you.... the girl holding it would have been no more than 16 yo it was quite scary.. anyway they led me out the big doulble doors at bangkok airport and the heat wave was so overwhelming i almost fainted... we waited bout 10mins then a black van pulled up and i was instructed to hop in....<br />
<br />
About an hour later we arrived a Yanhee hospital and the staff were all so friendly in helping me with my bags.. i walked into what looked like an emergency dep over here however all the nurses were so beautiful it was beginning to feel strange not one single ugly nurse in site and there uniforms were immacute pastel purple suits with the littlest skirts so so hot..<br />
i signed a few papers and they took my blood pressure then i was of to my room....<br />
<br />
my room was so so big with a tele,little bar fridge coffee and tea making facilities and my own balcony and bathroom... they even handed you a toiletry bag with everything you need in it....<br />
My op was the next day so i settlled in to bed by the time i fell asleep it was already 2 in the morning..<br />
in morning i was due to see my plastic surgeon at 11.00 so i was sick with butterflies till then..<br />
My app with the surgeon was a expirence he didnt really speak much english so that was an effort in itself..<br />
he explained that overs with 380ccs would be the best options and with showing me the pics i agreed..<br />
It was about 2.00 when i was wheeled of to sugery and it was about this time that the nerves started to kick in....the nurse wheeled me in to a very clean room with 10 people standing there staring at me.... i was then put on a bed with my arms strapped either side so scary but that was the last i remembered the next is when i was waking up in my room looking straight down at my chest and thinking wow i finally did it i have boobies.....:wave:part two coming soon xxxxx</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Hooray, I'm finally here! Today was my day! OK this is long, because I'm loooopy from the meds!<br />
<br />
So I got to Dr L's private clinic at 9:30am. They led me to a private room with a TV and a bed. Think old folks home, lol. But it was a nice place to wait. DH and I sat there for about an hour. He tried to keep things light by saying things like, &quot;let's make out. Or let's *do* it!&quot; Ha, can you imagine the nurse walking in to THAT! Ha, what a goof. <br />
<br />
I spoke with Dr K, the anaesthesiologist, then Dr. L and his nurse came in to lead me to the room. He explained a few things, which all pretty much went right over my head. Thankfully DH was there. <br />
<br />
They led me into the theatre, where there was the requisite bed, machines, and massive lights. I was soooo nervous, so I pretended not to be, which helped. I've had surgeries before, and walking in to your own surgical room is always a trip. I was asked to sit up on the bed. Dr K tried to distract me by asking me when my birthday was (apparently that's his go-to question), as Dr L came in and drew all over my breasts. <br />
<br />
Then they asked me to lie down and lay my arms out. Dr L continued to draw on my chest, as Dr K explained how he was just pricking my hand with some anaesthesia before putting in the IV. The nurses were busying themselves setting up the tables, etc. <br />
<br />
It was so surreal, all this action going on around me as I lay there. I laughed a bit, and asked, &quot;Omg, what am I DOING!&quot; (referring to the surgery itself). Dr K said, &quot;oh, everyone says that! Ha ha.&quot; Then I said, &quot;well, I gave birth, no drugs, to an almost 11-lb baby. I guess I can pretty much do anything, right?&quot; The nurse gasped, &quot;what?! Where did you PUT a baby that size?&quot; &quot;Oh, you know, I'm like one of those great cars --roomy on the inside!&quot; Hm, think I deal with nervous situations with attempts at humour or what? <br />
<br />
Dr L finished drawing, and apologized. I said, &quot;sorry for what?&quot; &quot;Oh, for drawing on you while you're exposed etc&quot; I laughed. &quot;oh, I don't care about that! I'm kinda distracted here.&quot; Plus, by then the happy juice was flowing through the IV and I felt great!<br />
<br />
Then Dr K said, &quot;you're going to feel it sting up your arm now, and here comes an oxygen mask.&quot; I closed my eyes, and breathed deeply through the burning stinging feeling. It went up my arm, and into my head.....<br />
<br />
...then...<br />
<br />
...I woke up in the recovery room with a nice warm blanket on me! It was all over! And aack, my chest hurt! It felt like someone kicked me in the sternum. Every breath hurt. I tried to breathe into my diaphragm/stomach instead.<br />
<br />
I snoozed, the nurse gave me some T3's at about 1pm, then in another hour they dressed me and DH took me home! I cannot believe I didn't feel like puking. Usually I do! Such a relief. Then again, I haven't stood up much.<br />
<br />
I slept off and on for the rest of the day. I watched part of House Bunny, which is a ridiculous movie, but all doped-up I sure laughed out loud! Which hurt a bit. Ah well. The T-3's take the edge off, and the pain, all-in-all, is leaning way more towards soreness/discomfort than *pain* pain.<br />
<br />
I have been drinking gatorate, and had some rice cakes, but it's time I had some fiber, lol. I think I know what's coming! (or, rather, isn't coming  :tmi:? Ha.) <br />
<br />
For all you moms out there, my kids came into the bed with me at bedtime (but weren't allowed to touch me. Uh, mommy has a sore back?) and I read them stories. I didn't have to banish them all day, as I had feared!<br />
<br />
So, that's my T-3 induced rambling BA story! I'm way better than I thought I would be. I am bracing myself for a tough day 2 and 3. But all in all...it was a positive experience, as far as surgeries go. <br />
<br />
The boobs are high and tight and kinda flat with pointy numb nipples (took me a second to figure out what those squooshy things were. Oh. nipples. NO feeling at all) but there is definite projection, and I think when they D&amp;F I'll love them.<br />
<br />
Thanks for reading! :)</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Hello everyone got my ba November 5th @ 7:15 a.m.I live two hours away so i had to leave my house at 4:45 a.m.My boyfriend and my friend came with me so one could help me with what ever on the way home.We ended up getting there an hour and fifteen minutes early.Starbucks was down the street so i got to sit there and watch them enjoy a nice cup of joe while i sat there freaking out about my ba.Finally at 7:00 we headed over to the plastic surgeon so i could fill out any last paper work.I signed one paper and they took me back to a room where the plastic surgeon came in and took pictures and drew on me.A couple minutes later the anathesiologist came in and asked a couple of questions.Then the nurse said say good-bye its time to get your boobs.I lied down on the padded table and they hooked me up to some monitors and they put in my I.V.I remember the nurse said do you feel anything?I said i think so and then the next thing i know i was in recovery.I was in pain i asked for pain medicine and a drink of water.I could smell something burning and a zapping noise coming from the other room.It was another woman getting her ba i was a little freaked out.The nurse brought me my water and said it was time for me to go home.She got me dressed ,sat me up,and put me in a wheel chair and wheeled me to the car.The ride home sucked my friend held me in my seat all the way home.I live in the mountains so there were a lot of turns.Anyway im post op 12 days the first couple of days were very painful mostly in the morning.Im still in some pain and can't do anything because im afraid to hurt myself.But every day gets a little bit better i just can't wait to be back to myself.I miss being able to clean or drive my car i still can't drive my left arm and boob hurt.Well hope you enjoy my story ill post more when i have more to say.THANK YOU!!!:wave:</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Omg...i can't believe i'm on here although i had my ba done this morning....haha...but i wanted everyone to know how it went today...since some of you guys were curious...<br />
<br />
Here it goes...<br />
<br />
My driver was suppose to pick me up at 7am but he got to my place 40 mins. Late.  By the time i got to the surgical center, it was 8a.m.  They called me in a few minutes later for a urine sample and had me wait in the waiting room again.  Then, another 10 minutes later, i was off.  <br />
<br />
The nurse looked for a vein on my hand to insert the iv and my anethesiologist as me a couple of question regarding past medical history and allergy related stuff.  My doctor came in and marked me up and asked me if i had any last comments/preferences regarding my ba.  This was the question i had been dreading the most.  I didn't know whether i should tell him to aim for the 500 or 550cc's....i was too scared to say 550cc's...so all i said was...&quot;doc..if you put the 550's in and they do happen to fit and they don't look as big as one of the pix i gave you, go for it...if it looks disproportionate to my body, please go with the 500's.<br />
<br />
Finally, we were off, while they were wheeling me a way.  I looked at the time and it was 9:15..the anethesiologist stuck something in to my iv...and all i remember was thinking...&quot;hey...it's not working yet...not sleepy at all...&quot;<br />
<br />
after that i woke up all cranky and painful....all i wanted was for everyone to leave me alone and let me sleep.  When i looked at the time it was 10:30....and i guess i looked cranky and annoyed as hell..so the doc told the nurses to let me pass out a lil bit more....the next time i woke up, it was 12:30....it took me forever to get out of the bed and wear my clothes.  When the nursed wheeled me out to the car, i though i was gonna puke..and every lump i passed i was in great pain....<br />
<br />
I felt as if a huge elephant was standing on my chest....<br />
When i got home...grandma tried getting me something to eat..but i took two spoons and couldn't do it....all i wanted to do was sleep.  I took my prescriptions and passed out for about 3 hrs...i woke up cuz i had to use the bathroom but it took me 20 mins for me to get up on my own....noone was home then....<br />
I slowly made it to the bathroom and thought i was gonna die of pain...so i came back and took another valium and other prescriptions....<br />
<br />
All i did today was bitch and moan, sleep, and take the medications.  Hopefully tomorrow will be a less painful day, ppppleeeeassee!<br />
<br />
I posted some pics, so take a look.  I think im happy my doc went with the 550's =)<br />
<br />
will update more...getting sleeping....again.....</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Ok so pretty much growing up I always knew I was going to get breast implants.  How honestly I have no idea it's hats to imagine a 14 girl wanting breast implants.  Growing up I was the early developer.  I had the biggest and the only breast.  Maybe that's what got to my head.  Through the years my weight would bounce but never over 130 which was still large for my 5'4 frame.  And it seemed all my weight was in my breasts.  So as I got older and began to lose the bBt fat I found the  had to buy the padded bras so it wasn't so obvious that I had lost one of the things I was well known for.  By the time I turned 23 I knew I was ready for my ba.  I  had lst my mother and nearly all my good curves.  I started secretly searching  and found my now doc.  I read all night unroll I knew I was ready.  So finally I &quot;came out&quot; to my family.  They were actually way more supportive than I'd expected. I made my aunt who is now pretty much my mother now go with me to my consult, and when I saw how excited she was as well I knew he was my doc and soon to be hers lol.  I scheduled my surgery 7 weeks out which gave me plenty of time to obsess night and day.  I'm one of those people when I decided to do something I do it and even I questioned if this was the right decision for me.  But I made it and I couldn't be happier.  I'm 3 days post op so I'm taking my vacation watching movies and reading.  Thanks fr listening xoxo</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Yes, that is what my BF has named them.  Rita is the right one and Lucy is the left.  Don’t ask where he came up with the names.  He just woke up one morning and decided he wanted to name them.  Silly boy.  <br />
Anyway, here is my BA story start to present.<br />
<br />
11-13-09: Got to plastic surgeon office around 2:15.  Didn’t actually see the doctor until 3 and boy was I antsy.  I was jumping around, playing with the model implants, and just being crazy.  Finally my plastic surgeon came in and drew on me.  I then proceeded to do a few model moves with my sexy permanent marker.  haha  The CRNA came in about 15 minutes later to talk to me about the anesthesia.  I told him to definitely give me something for nausea just in case.  Then I said goodbye to my BF and off to the OR I went.  Once I got in there and was on the table I started freaking out a bit.  It all became real to me.  There were 4 nurses in there and they were all very nice.  The one nurse was putting the compression things on my legs and the anesthesiologist was starting my double IV.  They were talking to me about being from MI and living in Chicago for a few years and what brought me to the east coast.  The last thing I remember is them asking me when I was getting married and me telling them I chose boobs over a ring.  Haha. <br />
Next thing I can remember is being in my BF’s truck and talking on the phone to my mom.  I guess I kept telling everyone that I had big boobs.  Which I do, of course!  I talked to my mom and my BF’s mom and my best friend.  Don’t really remember much of the conversations as I was still pretty out of it.  <br />
Once we got home it was straight to the couch for me.  My wonderful BF had ice on me every 15 minutes and I was able to take a pain pill and eat a few crackers.  Then it was sleepy time.  But not before taking a few pictures and sending them to friends and family :-)  My lovely BF iced me all night and I vaguely remember him waking me up to take more meds.  All in all I didn’t feel any pain.  I was just very very tired.  Each time I woke up to take more meds I did 5 reps of lifting my arms up over my head and back down.<br />
<br />
11-14-09: Day after – went to see plastic surgeon for my post op appointment.  Him and the nurse were blown away at how alert I was and how I could move my arms so much.  plastic surgeon said I had pretty minimal swelling and a small amount of bruising around the incision.  Cleared me to start taking Advil for inflammation but to keep on the muscle relaxers and antibiotic.  Also showed me how to start massaging them.  We left the plastic surgeon office and went out to breakfast.  Still feeling great!  I took a little nap on the drive home since we live about an hour away from my surgeon.  Got home, took a quick nap on the couch, took some more pain meds and off we went again.  BF’s sister and brother in law were in town for a wedding so we went to visit with them at their hotel.  Hung out with them for a few hours and then we came back home.  I was still feeling sleepy so I pretty much dozed on the couch for the remainder of the evening.  Around 10pm I took a pain pill and got into bed.  Woke up at 3am to take my meds and made the mistake of not eating anything and just going back to sleep.  <br />
<br />
11-15-09: I paid for my not eating with meds mistake.  Got sick just once but it sure did take a lot out of me.  I stopped taking pain meds and switched to just Tylenol but was asleep on the couch almost the entire day.  I finally got up around 4ish and went grocery shopping with the BF.  Then we came home and made dinner.  After we ate I made cookies, cleaned the apartment a bit, did some laundry and watched TV.  I did take my pain meds last night to help me sleep but I don’t think I needed them.  <br />
<br />
11-16-09: Today – still feeling great!  I’m back at work and have no pain at all.  Just a lot of tightness.  It seems to go away if I move my arms so I am trying to keep them going.  I took my B12 this morning so I’m not feeling too sleepy.  But if I had a couch to lay on I’m sure I would fall asleep.  I am still amazed at how much better I feel each day.  I didn’t think I was feeling too bad to begin with but today I feel completely like myself.  <br />
<br />
Thanks again to all the JBI girls that gave me so much knowledge throughout this process.  I would be so lost if I didn’t have you girls.<br />
<br />
Hope everyone else is recovering as smoothly as I have been!<br />
<br />
I posted pics of the last 3 days and will continue to post.  I love seeing the changes they make!</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Two years ago I was blessed with a beautiful daughter, and unfortunately saggy and stretched out boobs. I was a C cup before I got pregnant, swelled up to a DD and then went back to a C, just not perky and firm like before. After extensive research I decided to go to Dr. Peterson in Honolulu Hawaii, because I liked the friendliness and professional attitude of his staff and office. He is also the chief of plastic surgery in Kapiolani Hospital there, so I felt safe. <br />
<br />
Pre-OP<br />
     I couldn't decide between a 330 and 350 but he Dr. Peterson decided I would look best with 350cc's under the muscle. I filled out a bunch of paperwork and took some pictures.<br />
<br />
Day of Surgery<br />
     I woke up really early, took my celebrex and washed myself with that weird smelling antibacterial wash that looked like blood LOL. I have major anxiety and I kept freaking out about complications and anesthesia reactions. Luckily I kept pretty calm as my mom drove me to the hospital. I changed into a gown, checked that I was getting textured, anatomical, under the muscle 350 cc saline implants. The anesthesiologist came in and she really calmed my fears. She was so sweet and nice I felt like I was in good hands. My doctor came in and made some markings and then off I went! I went to the bathroom and them walked into the OR. My heart was beating what felt like 1000 times a minute, I was so nervous. I have really thin veins with big valves so it always takes awhile to get my IV's in. Once she got the IV in I saw her inject a shot of something and then a couple seconds later I started feeling a funny feeling in my chest and my head felt fuzzy. I remember saying &quot;this stuff is really good&quot; and slurring my words, and the last thing I remember is staring at the ceiling trying to remember what I was going to say next. I actually woke up for a couple of seconds during my surgery but I was so out of it I just felt some pulling and then I fell asleep again. When I woke up I felt awful. The room was dark and I felt nauseated and my chest hurt so bad. I saw a before and after picture on the wall of my boobs, but my eyes couldn't focus on it and I kept asking the nurse for valium or a painkiller. She gave me some water and I went to the bathroom by myself before she wheeled me outside to my moms car. For some reason I couldn't sleep on the way home and felt every bump and pebble. I took a valium and a vicodin as soon as I got home and slept for a couple of hours. I could barely move the rest of the day. The vicodin did NOTHING for the pain, all it did was make me really nauseated. I started only taking Tylenol on the 3rd day. <br />
<br />
Recovery<br />
    Very painful! I am 5 days post op and just have started being able to get up and walk around the house a little. It feels like I bench pressed 1000 pounds and whenever I laugh or cough it feels like my stitches are ripping open. Sitting up is the worst!!! Oddly enough, my boobs don't feel weird or fake on my at all. It feels like they are really engorged like when I was breastfeeding. I can't wait for them to drop because they are really high, swollen and big. My fiance keeps looking at them with a kind of scared look which is sort of discouraging : ( even though I keep reminding him that they look weird at the beginning. He didn't really want me to get them in the first place so hopefully they'll grow on him. LOL I think I have what they call &quot;Ugly Boob Syndrome&quot; LOL because I am not really happy with what they look like yet and although my stretch marks are filled out, they are still visible :( so spray tan for me now! I can't believe when I hear girls up and about the day after, I must have a really low pain tolerance, or a really bad prescription of vicodin hahah Hopefully I can start wearing some cute bras soon! Hope you enjoyed!</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Surgery 11-12-09 <br />
Had to be at surgical center at 10. We live an hour away so we left home at 8:30. Got there and all checked in. I was put in the preop room where there was a nice floor heater to keep me toasty. The nurse came in and gave me antinausea medicine to keep me from getting sick after the anesthesia. EVERYONE at his office was very caring and sweet. I could not have asked for a better group. I know I made the right choice in that practice.<br />
<br />
About 45 minutes later Dr Morea came in and I went to get marked up and pictures taken. He informed me that he knew I wanted to be a D ( actually had just asked the nurse to see if I could be a DD) but I would probably come out a Big C little D due to the lift. He explained that too much weight would reduce the effectiveness of the lift. I was a little bummed but ok. He is the DR and knows best. I trust him so I agreed. <br />
<br />
It wasnt but a few minutes the nurse and Nurse anesthesis(sp?) came in to take me to the OR. I kissed my DH bye... <br />
<br />
The operating room was cold, but they gave me a nice warm blanket and strapped some blood circulation cuffs on my feet that felt very relaxing. We started talking and the next thing I know I was in the recovery room with the nurse asking if I was ok. I didnt have much pressure and was expecting to be in alot more pain. <br />
She said I did great and I was gonna love my Boobs! She stated I had received 420 in the left and 400 in the right. My implants are Mentor 375 smooth round moderate profile. They brought my husband back and the nurse told him she was gonna make me comfortable since I had such a long ride home. She gave me morphine, took me to the bathroom to pee and get dressed. Gave DH instructions about medications and recovery noted. I slept the whole way home, pain free. <br />
<br />
DH was very sweet and caring. He got me settled in the recliner, even helped me log in to JBI so I could make sure you all knew I was ok. He sent texts out to everyone when my surgery was finished. I could not have asked for a better partner or nurse. He went to the store to get me chicken noodle soup and applesauce. Came back and even fed it to me in my sleepy slumber. Dr Morea called to check on me and make sure I was doing ok. I woke up and he was making a little bed on the couch beside me..( awww) So I told him I would try to get in the bed so he didnt have to sleep there. He went and stacked pillows up to elevate my head and even found one for under my knees.  Set his alarm for every 4 hours and woke up to give me meds. ( One time I even disputed that I had just taken one and he turned the light on and counted the pills twice to make sure) :oops:  It seems with every dose of meds I had to pee.<br />
<br />
Woke up around 6 in a little worse pain. Laid there till my next dose of happiness at 7. DH helped me get up and get some breakfast and then helped me get my shower. We redressed my bandages and now I am tucked back in the recliner. DH has gone to exchange one of my sports bras that I got ( I took 2 different sizes) and get tires put on my car ( the day before surgery he discovered I had a screw in my tire). <br />
<br />
Thanks to everyone who shared their stories and support during my process. You all made it so much easier but letting me be informed. I came to this board thinking implants were a one choice surgery- Silicone or saline- huhhh boy was I wrong. There were many decisions to make and it was a HUGE emotional roller coaster. <br />
<br />
I wish I could have gone bigger- but am not going to be disappointed! Dr Morea did what he knew was best and they will be ALOT better than the saggy deflated B's I had. <br />
<br />
I will add more to this as I progress. Going back to lala land now!</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Hi Ladies! <br />
<br />
I thought I would share my story so far as I have quite a but of time on my hands :)<br />
<br />
For those who don't already know, my name is Sammie! I have just turned 41 I am originally from the UK but now live in S. Florida... I lost my husband just over a year ago :( he was my soul mate for over 19 years and after he passed I decided to fufill my lifelong ambition of getting a BA! <br />
My lopsided boobies always bothered me, and it got worse after breast feeding my now 13 yr old daughter, then after I lost weight... forget it! My wrinkles dropped out of my face every time I took my bra off!<br />
My hobby is Jetskiing (I have a Yami fx sho) and really wanted my own personal built in flotation devices for zipping around the S. Florida waterways!<br />
The mini TT I wanted to have as my tummy had been stretched so badly by 5 pregnancies (one live birth) but I didn't think I could afford it, however when Dr. Revis gave me the total for everything I was blown away!cheaper than I expected!  I COULD afford it! YAY!<br />
<br />
My family were non too thrilled with the idea, when I ran it by them...So I just kept it to myself! My daughter knew, a few close friends... but thats it! <br />
After tons of research I decided on Dr. Revis to do my surgery... He had impeccable references, good bedside manner, and LISTENED to what I wanted, he didnt talk over me nor dismiss my fears, and didnt get upset when I landed in his office 3 times before booking my surgery either!<br />
<br />
On my last visit to his office I took the plunge and booked myself in... paid in full... There was no turning back now!<br />
I shook as I left the plastic surgeon office...OMG! I sat in the car clutching a handful of prescriptions and looked at myself in the rear veiw mirror.<br />
This girl had grown a set of b***s and did something without the family approval.<br />
<br />
The Surgery was just over 2 weeks away, I blocked it out of my mind. Every now and again I would surf JBI late at night but thats about it.<br />
<br />
1 week to go...I sorted out car pool for my daughter (I used to do the pick up) a friend is an RN, so I booked her services for a few days after surgery... Cleaned the house from top to bottom, and shopped till I dropped for freezer food etc.<br />
<br />
2 days to go, still only told a few friends, I was just about to break my resolve and tell the family when I decided against it.<br />
<br />
1 day to go.... I feel sick... nerves... started with the &quot;What if's&quot; , I was also petrified of not waking up from anesthesia, I was a mess! <br />
Then I saw it... a single white feather on my bed. My DH always said that I would know when he is around, he would leave me a white feather. I am not ashamed to say I cried like a baby. <br />
I didn't sleep much that night, my surgery was not scheduled till noon the next day, I did what most of you all have done! Stayed on JBI reading a researching! The fear that I had however had vanished.<br />
<br />
B-Day!<br />
Sweatpants, zip up top, ID, and cell phone were all that I wore/ took with me. My friend came with me to the hospital, she had already had a BA a few years ago and knew the drill :) We checked in, waited to be called and not long after was shown through to a cubicle to get changed into a gown, the smell of breakfast wafted through at the same time and I remember wanting to eat! <br />
The previous patient's surgery had ran over so mine was pushed forward to 1pm.... More waiting! <br />
Finally Dr. Revis comes in, all smiles and says &quot;Are you ready!?&quot; Am I ever! So  I dropped my gown and the drawing began... He made me laugh when he told me I would have to remove my Hello Kitty undies that I accidently left on!<br />
After that there was a steady stream of people in and out of my room, Pre-meds, anti sickness pill, questions, and light hearted banter from the nurses. There was no time for the nerves to return, I was wheeled into theatre and was chatting away to the Surgical team, then the mask came down and poof! I was out!<br />
<br />
I opened my eyes - Where the heck was that truck that just hit me! A voice asked if I was in pain.... I am a complete and utter Wuus! I dont handle pain well at all. &quot;yes&quot; I croaked... Gee I sounded like Bonnie Tyler! I snuggled back down into the bed, SAMANTHA! Please open your eyes.... Why? I asked they are blue if you need to know! Another voice said &quot;No more Morphine for her!&quot; LOL I dont know how much time passed, but I finally woke up and looked down. Two huge globes stared back at me :) I did it! I touched under my chin where I had the lipo for the Turkey neck... OW! I then felt my tummy, it was flat and had drains coming out. I smiled to myself, I was proud to say I had entered boobyville!<br />
<br />
My friend the nurse picked me up and took me home, settled me in bed and made me something light to eat. It took me an hour to finish it, she lined up the meds and got her own med sheet out and passed each one to me carefully marking down dosage and time. When she got to the pain meds she gave me half a tablet, I didnt think much of it, but later on realized I was supposed to have a dose every 4 hours, she was giving me half a dose every 2 hours. It kept me out of pain. Me the scaredy cat that cant stand ANY sort of pain! It wasn't as bad as I expected! It also helped that I had overs and a mini TT versus a FTT. <br />
<br />
So here I am 5 days later typing out this story, lying in bed with a kitty cat fast asleep at my feet and my daughter loving the fact that she can do something for me for a change. She has been an angel! She loves my new boobies!<br />
I still have not told the family... but am thinking of posting it on facebook get them all in one go! HAHA! My friends have been amazing, my bedroom looks like a florists shop! One of them is always popping in to see if I need anything! As for the pain? Still kept at bay with my half dose every couple of hours! <br />
I have put a few pictures up if you would like to see them, Just send FR!</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>SO after waiting almost 6 months for boobies, yesterday finally came.  I woke up at 4:30 am to take my last shower- dial soap of course.  My mom picked my BF and I up at 5:15 and we were headed off to the hospital.  Arrived at the hospital around 6 am for check-in.  I sat in the waiting room for not even 10 minutes when I was called back.  I was taken to a room where I had to put on the surgical robe, and have my vitals taken.  Then the best thing in the world:  I had to wear these white knee high stockings with holes in the balls of your feet.  They wrapped those in these blue velcro wraps that had plastic tubes at the bottom of them.  (In the OR they hooked up the tubes to a machine that alternatively put pressure on each leg, kind of like a blood pressure cuff.  They were supposed to prevent blood clots,  but were like a wonderful massage!)<br />
<br />
I was also given two hot wet wipes to wash off each breast.  My nurse put in my IV, and got me going on a mineral water solution.  They wheeled me into the surgical holding area where my surgeon visited with me and put purple marks all over me.  The anesthesiologist came in to discuss my allergies and put two small syringes onto my IV.  One was an antibiotic, the other something to just make me relax.  They also put a small anti-nausea patch behind my right ear.  As I was wheeled into the OR he pushed slowly on the one syringe and I became instantly drowsy- to the point that when they asked me to go onto the operating table, I couldn't move and just laughed.  Seeing the bright lights was the last thing I remember.<br />
<br />
Next thing I knew I was back in the surgical waiting area.  I had a oxygen mask on- and had to take deep breaths- then they moved me to an oxygen hose under my nose.  I nurse brought me hot blankets since I was so cold.  I drifted in and out of sleep for around 2 hours in that room- anytime I was asked my pain level 1-10, it was around a 4 or 5- and I was given another pain syringe. *Wonderful* My nurse gave me some ice chips that were nice too.<br />
<br />
I was wheeled back into the recovery room, where my mom and bf were allowed to come and see me.  My new nurse there gave me a total of 3 vicodin over the span of 1 1/2 hours, gave me some gingerale and we just waited until I was able to leave.  The worst part of all was how dry my mouth was, no matter how much ginger ale or ice I ate, it was soooo dry.<br />
<br />
We were put in a room with a recliner, and I waited to be wheeled outside.  I really wanted soup and ginger ale for my house so we stopped at the grocery store-  I was able to go in a wheelchair and was fine in the store.<br />
<br />
We picked up pizza for my mom and bf, I crept into my house passed my dogs, who were so upset that they knew i was home and couldn't see me.  :(<br />
<br />
I slept in and out the entire day, and watched bits and pieces of the Steelers game, but passed out.<br />
<br />
I woke up at 5 am to take my antibiotic and pain meds, and just woke up now for another pain pill at 9:30.  My throat is sore and my voice is a little horse from the breathing tube that was there during surgery, and there is no way I can use my arms for much.  Getting out of bed I just swing my legs over the bed and don't use my arms at all.  I took a sneak peek last night and so far so good!<br />
<br />
Going back to sleep, write more soon!:wave:</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>I decided I would post the beginning of my surgery since I am only two days out. Especially since I need something to do to keep my mind off of being uncomfortable! <br />
I have had small breasts my whole life since I am half asian and mostly take after that side. I remember when I was younger bring embarassed that I didn't need a bra in sixth grade or so when my friends did. When I was older and I would mention to my mom that I would consider one later, she said she always would have done it. This encouraged me. Once I was in high school I had at least filled out to a full A, which was better than the nothing before. Being a 32A was not fun because they always seem to only have the plain colored bras in that size. Then I had my first child, my son, and after breastfeeding dropped to a small A. They were still perky although small so I tried to convince myself I was lucky they didn't sag or get stretch marks. Plus I wanted more kids. Then five years later I had my daughter. I breast fed her longer for about six months and this dropped me down to a 32AA! All of my A bras were too big. And working out in a sports bra i had the chest of a boy! So when I finished breast feeding my husband and I decided to start going to consultations to learn more. My first consult was a pusher for big breasts and silicone, and being small I wasn't comfortable with that. My second was a woman who was very friendly and I considered booking, but she only did saline. Then I went to my third consult on the recommendation of a friend and he was the one. He said he wouldn't go too big for my frame and was very professional. Plus he gave me choices. Even though he wasn't as bubbly as the woman, I felt someone doing my surgery should be more down to business. <br />
He was booked out for a month or so, and I decided to pick one a little further out since I was so nervous. <br />
Well November 6th came so quickly! Surprisingly I was not nervous from two weeks out on because I tried not to think about it. Even as we arrived at the hospital and did the IV, I was calmer than I expected it was surreal. It helped they numbed my hand first. I also didn't like that I had to be completely undressed (I've heard some girls saying they could at least keep on their bottoms) The whole staff was great, I worried some might judge me. My doctor marked me up and I was given the beginning of the anesthesia and wheeled back to the OR. (which was freezing by the way). Last I remembered they were strapping down my legs and laying out my arms. <br />
When I woke up I was by the nurse's station and the room was fluttering. I remember being in pain and the nurse gave me medicine but said it would still hurt. I felt like a wimp! She mentioned she was taking me back to a recovery room to see my husband. I must have conked out again and next thing I know its after 1! My surgery was at 730 and we were supposed to be out before 12 but I guess the anesthesia hit me hard. Taking so long to wake up made everyone nervous waiting to hear the outcome. Well after eating some crackers and going to the bathroom (which was difficult) I was able to leave. The doctor came by and said everything was great, but my chest wall was tight so there will be more pain. Also he was only able to fit in 300ccs, 325 looked too big. He showed me a peek but I honestly can't remember what they look like. <br />
I got home that afternoon and my husband was such a big help. He had to help me sit down, stand up, go to the bathroom, brush my teeth, and fetch everything! I felt so helpless. After a long nap, that evening I felt better. It didn't hurt if I didn't move. Even if I did it was just a lot of pressure and discomfort. I didn't sleep too well that night because I probably slept too much already. Plus I kept worrying I'd miss my antibiotic. I was trying to sleep in the recliner, but it didn't work out as well as I'd hoped. Ice packs and lying still was the best.<br />
By day two, my chest was less tender but my back was and still is killing me! I did feel better. I tried to walk every so often. I just couldn't eat yet. Nothing sounded good and you can only eat so many crackers and jello! That afternoon I started to feel nauseated. I was so disappointed because I still had the patch behind my ear and I did ok the day before. I got sick once and thankfully it didn't hurt too bad even though it was an empty stomach. I felt better after that but still not up to eating. I was also afraid to take any more pain meds, but I had to force down the antibiotic. Tonight I am lying in my bed with pillows and an ice pack on my back. Feels better and I hope tomorrow will be even better. I would love a make do shower! I guess my biggest complaint is how bad my back hurts, I wasn't expecting this. Its worse than my chest. I am not sure if its from my previous back injury or its common. Anwyway I am back in for my checkup on Thursday. I'll post more later!</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>I'm a 33 yr old mother of 4. The Boobie Fairy passed me by as a teenager. For as long as I could remember I've always wanted my boobs done. I felt like something was missing from me as a woman. With each birth my breast shrunk more and more. About 5 years ago I decided to start looking into have breast augmentation. I went on a few consults but didnmt go through with it. It wasn't until Oct 3rd that I decided that I would finally persue my dreams of having big boobs.<br />
<br />
I booked a consult for Oct 8th. At my first consult the Dr. made me feel really comfortable. He gave me info on his background, told me which complications he's come across, explained the risk, measured me and than had me try on sizers. I knew that I liked him but I wanted to meet other Dr's before making my decision. A week later I went on my 2nd consult. The Dr. was ok very straight forward. He didnt really ask what I wanted but &quot;told me he would determine size after I'm under once he sits me up&quot;. NOT!!!!..I decided to go with the first Dr. and went the following day to place a deposit.<br />
<br />
It's less than 4 weeks until my surgery and as I'm doing more research I find this wonderful site JBI...The anticipation is building from reading everyone's stories and I cant wait to be in Boobieville too. A week before my surgery I find out that I would not be recieving the bonus money from my job. At that point I felt like my world was about to come crashing down. That money was my final payment for my surgery. I didnt want to post pone my surgery for 2 weeks. Needless to say my boss felt so bad about messing up on my bonus that he wrote me a check for $500 and I took out a loan for the remainder.<br />
So as planned I made the final payment and the surgery was still on.<br />
<br />
Day of surgery Nov 4th I had to be at the surgery center at 7:00am. I arrived at 6:50am and by 7:30 they were calling me to the back. I was instructed to tinkle in a cup and get dressed in their lovely gown, slippers, and hair net. I was than taken to a room where I meet the anesthesiologist. She asked tons of questions before starting my IV...Than my Dr. came in to talk with me and to take my before pics. The anesthesiolgist than came back in to give me my happy juice and walked me to O.R. As we were walking she's asking me are you dizzy yet and I'm like no..no wait yes I feel it. I look at the table in the O.R and thats the last thing that I remember. I woke up and felt sooo drained, I couldnt keep my eyes open I just wanted to sleep. The nurse dressed me and wheeled me out to my waiting mother. I dont remember the ride home because I was out of it. Got home and went to bed. Later my son made me cup o noodles. My kids were GREAT!!!..They attended to me like I was queen..I love them soo much...Ok back to the story at 6 I took my meds n off to sleep I went again. So far I've only taken 1 vicodine:)<br />
<br />
Day 2 I go to see the Dr. He's not there yet so the nurse ask if she can see my boobs. She starts to talk to me than BAM she squeezes them together. OUCH!!! She than tells me that I have to do these massages every day at least 5 times a day to avoid cc. Dr. finally comes in and takes a look and again he massages them all while lecturing me about how important it is to do this. Tells me he'll see me in a week, and to stay in my gorgeous surgical bra:)<br />
I fell good no pain at all. I still havent taken but 1 vicodine. The only meds I'm taken are my antibiodics, arnica, and bromelain. I go out to eat with my mom. By 11 pm I woke to PAIN where the HELL is my vicodine!<br />
<br />
Day 3 I feel more tightness and I'm stiff. I realize that I need to rest a little more and its ok to take my vicodine more. I have no brusises and the swelling isn't that bad. I think thats because of the Arnica and the Bromelain. I bruise really bad, All I have to do is bump something and I have a bruise the next day. I woke last night and felt tightness so I started to massage and the tightness went away. I am a little disappointed with my 500's. I thought that they would be bigger, I'm guessing I'll end up with a C at best..Redo here I come:)</div>

<br />
So the week before BA I was a nervous wreck :eek:!! I was so excited but so dang scared I could not enjoy my excitement! The night before BA I felt good not nervous at all? woke up still not nervous? drove to pick up my daughter and then off to surgery center, still not nervous? pulled into parking lot and gulp, gulp freaked out :scared:<br />
<br />
I looked down at my boobies then over at my daughter and said &quot;you know they really aren't that bad&quot; haha..She said ma it is too late we are going in!!<br />
<br />
I go into the surgery center and check in the receptionist ask me a billion question I am doing good until she says &quot;If something should go wrong would you be willing to have a blood transfusion?&quot; :wideeyed: uh yes, then she says &quot;do you have a living will?&quot; holy smokes my mind starts thinking the worst. like no I do not but do you have a piece of tissue maybe I should write one real fast lol.....<br />
<br />
I wait, and wait, and wait..............the nurse comes out and calls me back! we go back she has me pee in a cup and then gives me a gown tells me to change and meet her at the bed at the end of the hall. As I am changing I am thinking omg...do I really want to do this. I change meet her down the hall she says have you ever had surgery before and that was it I start crying She said oh honey it will be ok what are you here for? She looks at the chart and says oh you are gonna be fine and come out looking like a barbie doll..I smiled and felt alittle better.<br />
<br />
 They start my IV and bring my daughter back I take one look at her and start crying again..Then I stop and the &quot;bartender&quot; comes in and I start to cry again ,holy jeeze already! Dr. comes in yep you guessed it crying some more. He marks me and calls &quot;happy&quot; Dr. back. He comes in gives me a little happy juice and says I will give you more when we get to the OR and you will go to sleep and wake up I promise. I smiled...they take me to the OR I look up and see big lights they have me move from the one bed to the other put my arms out to  my side and that is the last thing I remember. I have no idea what the heck happened but I was gone!!!! Woke up in recovery feeling super sore! <br />
<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>So I figured since I posted my two month post-op pics, I should share my story also...<br />
Growing up, I got really sick when I was younger (6 years old) and as a result, I was stunted. My family is all 5'7+ and pretty well shaped. Me? 5'4, bigger bum, tiny tiny bones, and a small chest. My momma took me at a pretty young age to see about getting implants, but at that time I just wasn't sure if I was ready for it. After waiting a few more years, I came to terms that there was never going to be some miracle delayed growth for me, and I talked to my mom about it, and went back to the plastic surgeon. He has done some work with cancer related surgeries for other members of my family (he got all the cancer out of my beloved sis!). He didn't seem very personal, didn't give me a choice between mod/mod+/hp, never took my bwd, and told me that 300cc would give me the size I wanted (a bigger 32b or smaller to mid c). I didn't want big boobs, I just wanted to look proportionate. I booked my surgery for the end of the summer.<br />
End of August- big day comes! Take time off from my two jobs, clean my apartment, try and get sleep. My mom came to pick me up the day of (my surgery wasn't till 5:30 pm!) and we drove to the place. While waiting she watched a movie in the private waiting for with me, then I went in for my surgery. While being put asleep on the table the anestiesiologist(sp??) made a remark about how tiny I was, and I was immediately filled with worry about how my new chest would look!<br />
When I woke up, there was only one thing on my mind, I was so hungry!! I hadn't eaten since midnight the night before. I asked the nurse if she had told my mom I was ok, and she said she had, then I asked her to get my mom to bring me food. haha. She said it wasn't a good idea since I had a 2 hour drive home. So I waited... got realized. Got home, ate like a pig! I slept and ate my way through the next week. Since I got under the muscle, my chest wall was sooo sore wen I tried to move or st up. On the bright side, my surgeon's way of doing things seems kinda unique. I had full bandages over my chest (I also had them put in through the nipple fyi) going from below my chest up to almost my neck. On top of those I wore a sports bra, so that kinda kept the swelling down, and gave them a somewhat natural shape right away. I was SO itchy. and so swollen! One night I looked in the mirror and saw how big they were, I panicked! I googled like a mad woman, and found this site, and read my little heart out about other people's sizes and stories. This calmed me down. I spent the remainder of my time at home playing with my dog and watching t.v with my mom.<br />
After a week I got my bandages off, I was measuring a 32d, but I bought 34c wireless bras from Victoria secret (they didnt have the wireless in 32d). The ladies were up at my chin, but they were pretty nicely shaped. I went back to work at my two jobs, and a week later, I started back into college (well, university to those canadians out there).<br />
The past two months.. they have definitely dropped but I have seen no fluffing, which I'm happy about. My chest is definitely larger than I wanted, but there's nothing I can do about it so I might as well smile and suck it up!<br />
Occasionally they ache, more than occasionally my side boob aches. The skin there is definitely still stretching. I can't wait for them to become more bouncy/soft, they aren't bad right now, but they could for sure be better! My left boob is a bit bigger than my right, but it always had been, and I think that makes them look more natural. <br />
Overall, I am happy with my experience, it could've been better, but it could've also been a TON worse. To those ladies who answered my first desperate worried post about having gone to big way back in August, thank you so much! To anyone considering implants, follow your gut instincts. All the nurses in the plastic surgeon's office told me to go to 325 or 350cc, and that I would regret only getting 300cc, but I knew I wouldn't, and I am so happy I trusted myself!<br />
Thanks JBI ladies for helping me get through the first few months of new boobs, because there really isn't anywhere else you can find info or get help like this. Sorry my story isn't that detailed, but I have tests to cram for and breast massages to be done!</div>
