I am scheduled to have my breast lift and...
I am scheduled to have my breast lift and augmentation next week Tuesday! I'm super scared, nervous and excited. I've read too many horror stories on this site and I always end up second guessing myself. Then I'll run into a really awesome review with amazing results and just pray that will be me too! I'm currently a 34D but super saggy. Breast fed 2 kids for 6 months each and I've gained/lost significant weight over the past 6 years. My goal is to be a real 34D, maximum 34DD, not a deflated D. I'm 5'1 and 145lbs and getting 335cc saline Ideal high profile implants under the muscle. I don't want to be huge on top, I'm already bottom heavy. ;) So, I'm hoping they look natural. I just want full perky boobs for once! I'm mostly dreading the lollipop lift incisions and am afraid of having the procedure done together, but I really just want to get it over with. Any helpful information anyone can provide will be greatly appreciated!
Day 1 Postoperative
I still can't believe I finally did it! So far so good. I don't have pain, but I am incredibly sore in/near the armpit and upper back areas. I have an ace bandage type wrap on and that with theach overall pressure makes it hard to take any deap breaths. I was in/out of it yesterday. Thankfully I never had to take any of the nausea medicine. I didn't have any issues with the anesthesia. All the ladies and Dr. Paresi were wonderful! I was nervous but 100% confident about the dr I selected. I managed to get a few things done around the house today, but it wore me out quickly so I'm back in bed. Sleeping was not bad for me, since I'm a back sleeper. Plus I can pretty much fall asleep anywhere. Lol
I ended up with a lollipop lift, 335 cc Ideal structured high profile under the muscle implants.

Day 3 post-op
I've survived the worst few days. My arms are still hard to move, especially my left arm. I don't have any pain just muscle soreness. I've also stopped taking all the meds because I haven't used the bathroom in day says! I look 5 months pregnant. Today I was able to take off my wrap and shower. I almost passed out. I don't do well with blood, cuts and bruising. I had to lay down for a bit before getting in the shower. I'm finally in a comfy bra instead of the tight wrap. So far I'm happy with the results!
