What you are feeling is so normal. No one really talks about it ahead of time, but so many of us went through the same thing. I spent the first week fighting feelings of regret - I didn't dare voice them (especially to my dh!) after having just gone through so much to get the freaking things, but I was just sure that at some point, I was going to have them taken out. And, now that I post/read on the post-op board, I've discovered that a TON of people feel that way immediately after. It took me a good two weeks to really get used to them and not wonder (several times a day), "WHAT HAVE I DONE?!" However, like everyone has said, after a couple of weeks, I've gotten used to them . . . and they look so much better than they did the first 8-10 days. (((BIG HUGS))) HTH!

mom2dkl · 07-16-2008, 11:49 PM

It's pretty common for surgery of any sort to mess with your head a bit. Our bodies can withstand only so much trauma. It only makes sense. Please give yourself some time before you make any rash decissions about this. In a couple of weeks if you feel the same way then maybe you could discuss it with your PS. Your pictures look so beautiful. Just try to give yourself some time to physicaly and emotionaly adjust to the changes you've just been through. You owe that to yourself. Good luck. I know that whatever you decide to do, you will make the right decission for you. xoxo

ah, sweetie, I'm so sorry you are feeling this way. Be assured, it is normal. I've read many posts on here just like yours but now they are happy. Please don't make any quick decisions while feeling this way. Take it a day at a time. You look great!! And I'm not just saying that, you really do.

I will certainly be prayng for you. Sending much peace and love your way!

Oh I am so sorry, but I know exactly how you feel. I felt the exact same way and I called my PS bawling after a week and asked if they would take them out. I felt guilty because of religion and finances. And I was scared because I knew that this was something I would have to deal with the rest my life. Future risks and complications. Just so you know, my PS said he could take them out in 2 weeks just under a local anesthetic in the office. BUT He wanted me to wait two weeks though to make sure thats what I really wanted. He said that it wouldnt be fair to me to take them out immediatly cuz I might regret it later. He was right. I wanted him to do it right then cuz I knew that if I had to wait 2 more weeks I might change my mind and I wanted them OUT! I thought I couldnt bear having them in me for 2 weeks, but everyday after that got a little better. Even a month later, I have my moments where I feel too big, or get scared, but I decided to stick with them and just enjoy them while trying not to worry. Would I do it again??? I dont know if I would do it all over again, but since I already did it, paid for it, and went through pain for them...I am going to enjoy them! I never thought I would be happy again, seriously the worst depression of my life, BUT I promise...........it will get better, it will, it will, it will. I think just knowing I had a choice to go back if I wanted to made it easier for me. YOU have a choice too, but I would def give it time like everyone else says. You will be happy again, and everything will be OK

MMLynn · 07-17-2008, 12:40 AM

Aww I feel bad you hate them so much.

You look really good and not too big at all in my opinion. Wait a month and make sure you really want them out first! I wanted mine out too, I told my DH to rip them out of me. I could do nothing but cry a few days out. It will get better, I promise. :-(

Aria_cavatina · 07-17-2008, 02:44 AM

I just read all of the kind replies. It means so much to me to hear each and every one of your stories and words of support. I felt like I was going nuts, and it sounds like so many of you have felt like I have felt.
It makes me feel a lot better, i feel like i can breathe again.
I worked myself up so much I had to step back, I went and took my son to the park and to see an outside movie.
We snuggled and hugged and I stepped back, I was able to breathe. I think I can make it to 2 weeks.
I don't know what will happen then, but I'm going to go to disneyland with my son next week, and I bought myself some large tshirts and things so I don't feel like i'm so obvious. I feel better.

I really want to believe that they will look fine soon. I'm getting a new job soon and I guess my biggest fear is that the boobs would cause some trouble with that, some how mess that up. Like if there were complications, or if people thought of me a particular way noticing how huge and high and unnatural they look now. I dunno.

But I do know that I feel so much better and I feel the prayers and kind thoughts you sent to me, I've felt like I wasn't alone in this today, and that is because of you kind ladies.

Thank you.

Alaria · 07-17-2008, 01:46 PM

Glad your feeling better. I did pray for you again last night and prayed you would feel His presence. I think you look very natural and I don't think it will cause you problems at work. I dress differently for work than I do to go out or hang out. In work clothes you can barely tell I even did anything. You will be fine. Enjoy your son and time with him.

MASONS GIRL · 07-17-2008, 04:37 PM

So happy to hear you're feeling better. Now you're going to the happiest place on earth so it can only get better! = ) Have a great time with your son and try not to worry about anything. You look absolutely beautiful!

bluegrassbabe · 07-17-2008, 06:16 PM

Hello! I just want to tell you that your pictures look so pretty! Your PS did a great job with you!

I do understand what you are going through, as I am one week post-op and I am wigging out because my right side looks sooo different than my left. My left is still so swollen and so high, it makes my right one look droopy although I know it is not droopy by any means.

My ps nurse presribed me an anti anxiety (klonopin) and that has helped me a whole lot in feeling better and feeling calmer about everything! I am now just trying to be patient as being patient is not very easy for me to do at all!

But it is your body and only you know what is best for your body.

I will pray for you!

Hang in there girl!

Mommy2J3 · 07-17-2008, 06:34 PM

Wow really? Seriously "yours" have stood out in my mind as really among the best looking I've seen. Still thats not to say that your feelings aren't real or don't matter. I just wanted you to know that how great you do look. And every single one of the ladies comments thus far are true. Count me among the many who will keep you in thoughts and prayers. It is major surgery and you have already been through the hardest part. Hang in there a little longer. (Hugs)

JJ1979 · 07-17-2008, 06:42 PM

Bless your heart! You look amazing first of all...your boobs fit your frame perfect!

I wouldn't have stopped the pain meds so soon, personally. What you're experiencing is the boobie blues and VERY VERY VERY normal. Please don't make any hasty decisions this soon..give yourself time to heal and adjust!

You're in my t's and p's!

Tiger · 07-17-2008, 08:18 PM

First of all, you do look fantastic already, and it will only get better. I can tell you, having had the same PS, his work is impecable - what you look like now is NOT what you will look like in a few weeks. We are our own worst critics. I'm sending you hugs, and I know you are going to feel better each and every day.

SUNSEEKERS · 07-17-2008, 08:32 PM

Poor thing... Are you sleeping ok?? It is so hard to get comfy for me & I find that if I don't sleep well, my mind plays with me.... My PS gave me info in my packet about going through an emotional roller coaster. I worry about you going through another surgical procedure so soon. It is hard on the body & mind to do it once. Hopefully you will feel 100% comfy with the choice you make. WHatever that choice is. You look so natural already & as all the girls on here have posted it will just continue to do so. THey are beautiful & don't look unnatural at all.... Best Wishes on your decision making... All of this will soon pass for you.... Take care of yourself....

MissPriss · 07-17-2008, 08:39 PM

I hve to say that you look spectaclar. Sometimes we dont see things for what they really are, especially after BA. Its an emotional rollercoaster that can put you on the brink of insanity at times! I dont know how soon they would do a removal, i guess it would be up to your ps. IMO, i relly think you should give yourself a little time to see if you get accustomed to them. The swelling will go down and i bet you will love them. Dont jump the gun and do something you will regret later down the road! Hang in there, you really do look great!

virus · 07-17-2008, 09:26 PM

aaww. i was in the same boat and i've tried to post comment on how i felt abouthem also. but i still can't figure out how to do it mine are 2 months old and i felt the same way as you did. i was so sad and fallen into depression, actually what really helped me out the most was this site, reading everyone post and nowing that there are people who feel the same way as i do too, these people on this site help me get through this feeling of wanting to go to my kitchen and cut them out.
before i was a cup now i'm a d cup, this was soo over whelming for me and sometimes i still feel like upset b-c i'm not sure what i did to myself, i find that at night when i have time i go on this site and it makes me feel better because i'm not the only one that went big there are other girls who went even bigger than me and they look so good and they love them, it just make you appericate them more.
BY THE WAY I WENT 457 CC. huge lol. i hope you feel better
p.s i think your chest looks hot

bcullen · 07-17-2008, 10:51 PM

girl i am sorry your feeling soo bad.. but i think that you look amazing! i dont have mine yet, so i dont know how i will feel after, but from what i have heard from the other ladies, is that you will learn to adore them. i think that you should give it some time and just try be patient. you are beautiful! and i
