Aaaawwww Honey, I'm so sorry you are feeling down right now. We are here for you and support you no matter what you choose to do. If I can just give you one more word of encouragement... like the girls have said.... please dont make the decision to remove them while you are in such an emotional state. You did your research and went through with it because you wanted them so bad. I'd hate to see you lose them too soon because you made a hasty decision in a time when you were in a bad place and not emotionally strong. The boobie blues, like the baby blues, can leave us feeling confused and emotionally drained. Try to get some good sleep, take your pain meds so you feel more comfy, and be good to yourself. You look amazing in your pic!! <<<<HUGS>>>> BTW... your post was VERY helpful to me personally, so I want to thank you for being so brave. I havent had my BA yet and havent really thought about how this could affect me emotionally, and your post opened my eyes to what could happen, so THANK YOU!! You are in my prayers.

Hi Aria,

I hope you will be feeling better about everything soon. I too went through this....still am sometimes depending on my mood ---I feel like mine are a little big also. I sometimes think i should have gone about 75cc's smaller. I wanted a more subtle look, but as you know figuring out the size to pick is not like an exact science...even when we try hard to imagine our new look with the sizers.

I like you am not completely comfortable...and hoping that they do not get any larger, but i have decided to wait it out.

Strangely, I feel like i look a lot better naked now....and yet am not thrilled with how I look in clothes. Cannot wear the same kinds of clothes as before. And this is the reverse of how I used to feel --> used to feel good in clothes, but not not so confident naked.

Just keep in mind what the other ladies have already mentioned...they look nice and natural to us ladies at JBI...and they should look natural to the casual onlooker. But they will take some time to get used to. And with time they should feel more jiggly and squishy...and that has to be a factor in feeling like they are a part of you.

So i would say, give it at least 3 or 4 months (unless you have ongoing pain)....And I going to try to do the same.

Im glad you are doing well, you had a lot more to go through than I did, it really turned me around.
The pain was really adding to my emotional state I think in a way that I didn't understand till now. The pain is lessened and that really has helped my emotions too. I was totally shocked at the size, i really thought they'd be a LOT smaller. But I'm getting used to it, and I hope in a few months when the swelling goes down the size will get a LOT smaller and hopefully not be so high, which is part of the problem too.
Hope you are feeling ok too.
hugs

Sounds like post op depression to me. It does get better. Don't rush the implant removal thing until you are sure that is what you really want. You need to give it some time to get over the blues and see how you really feel about them. I think you look great, and when they are all settled, you'll feel great too.
Hugs,
