Second thought..CAN'T DECIDE

I have had 2 consultations with Dr. H and have picked out an implant and it's all I've been thinking about, been so excited and set I wanted to do, etc.. and made a surgery date. I have changed the date twice now and I was told on the phone today I need to make my $500 deposit by tomorrow...

I am still not 100% sure I want to do it. I mean, I REALLY want bigger boobs and have since I was a teenager. I am 28 now and have never been fully comfortable with my body. I have big hips and a booty and have always felt out of proportion. I am just so scared I am not going to like the way they look and regret it, I'm scared they will be oddly shaped and hard. I am scared I will lose nipple sensation and I am scared if/when I have kids, they will get buggered up. My boobs are a really nice shape and perky, but just tiny and when I wear tight dresses or bikinis I always feel self conscious. Oh my god.. I don't know what to do..if I don't do it I will always wonder..

If this is what you really want then go for it! Have you settled on a date now? If you are all prepared for it, have the money and the time is good then I think you will be very disappointed if you don't go through with it. With what you have said, the 315 size sounds good, it's not too big and will help proportion you. And by the sounds of other girls on here, you have chosen a very good surgeon who will do the best for you!

Good luck with whatever you decide! :)

Well I think it's what I really want! Yeah, since I have a few parties and things (nice excuses!&!) in September, the next date they have is the 12th October. I almost have enough, and will by then. They want me to give the deposit by tomorrow..I don't want to tell too many people, or my family til after, so I don't have many people to talk to about it...

It's such a personal choice Pixievibes. Before kids, I had very small boobs but they were perky and perfect and if there was some way to get them back I would!! I did feel self conscious about them sometimes, but not enough to do anything about it. Now after breastfeeding three kids (I was a 12F with the twins), because of the sag I need a refill so they'll have to be a bit bigger than what is natural for me.

Don't pressure yourself to make a decision - whether you do it this month, next month or next year isn't important. What's important is that you're happy with your decision xx

Good luck - we're all here if you need advice :)

I wonder how much having kids in the future would stuff up the job. Thing is I am single at the moment, so it could be a long time til that happens! Although, I just turned 28, so If it's going to happen it better in the next 5 years. I know you can breast feed with implants, but I hope they would still look good after.

Your breasts will change with pregnancy and breast feeding. With one of mine they were noticeably bigger and the other they did not change too much, but they are different now than before I had kids. Most women who have had implants prior to kids will probably have them re done when they have finished having children. It is hard to tell though, everyone is different.

Do you mind waiting until you have kids to have them first done? Or since you don't know when that will be, are you happy to get them now and have them re done in say 10 years time? Which is also when surgeons say you could possibly need new ones anyway.

I agree with what everyone has said..... I have never seen anybody say they wish they'd never done it!! (except if they've had problems) I'm 31 & haven't had kids (who knows, I may never have any...?) but I'm sure glad I did it!! :D I know if I didn't go through with it, I would've been very disappointed with myself!

But like Platinum said, more than likely you will need a revision at some point in your lifetime anyway...

Oh, just report those stupid posts & admin will ban the user, more than likely just an automated posting anyway.... Recently saw a post about cars on here? Lol We've had a few lately, they get a bit annoying! :)

I think everyone has second thoughts, as you always think you may be the woman who ends up with the bad boob job! Just have to trust your doctor, and I have found this forum has given me great confidence that I have made the right decision in the doctor (Dr Harwood) I have selected.. As the photos and comments on here are from real women, not just doctors websites. Best luck in making your decision, BW xxx

Thank you guys. I am pretty confident (after reading everyone's posts) that it would be a good job, and on the most part, recovery doesn't sound that painful. Yeah.. it's just the baby thing. He was very honest about it and said he wouldn't want me coming back in a few years wanting them re-done after breast feeding...but who knows when that will happen!! I need a man first! lol.

I'm also worried about loosing sensitivity of my nipples.. that would totally suck because I like them being sensitive. A few times tonight I have seriously said in my head 'yep, just cancel tomorrow...' Then a bit later after looking at pictures and comments, I change my mind. OH MY GODDD

Good luck with whatever you decide to do. I think that getting them done now will be good for you and a confidance boost. You have time to find a man and have kids and then you have to wait a year after you stop breast feeding the last child before you can have surgery for implants too, so you will have many years with these ones before you might get them re done. Let us know what you decide and if you end up paying your deposit today or not.

Good luck!! :)

The baby thing was something Dr H and I talked about quite a bit. I am 21 and dont plan to have kids for a number of years yet - but do plan to in the future. The conclusion Dr H and i came to was - might as well enjoy them now!!

With the prospect of having to get them redone a couple of times in my lifetime anyway this wasnt such a huge deal in the end for me - If i was planning to have kids in the next 2years or so it may have been a different story though.

Depending on how much your breasts change during pregnancy will determine how different the implants will look after. I spose you can get them now, enjoy them and possibly have to redo them after babies, or you can wait and have them after, in which case you will probably dislike them even more after if you breastfeed.

Its a difficult decision but definitely a personal one. weigh up your options but i agree - dont push yourself to make the decision! Maybe talk to Dr H about it all again?

Good luck hun xx
