    Tali, did the dr tell you how much he thought you had in your boobies? I want to get 450ml, but DH won't let me.

    Sorry TD, i didn't word it right. I mean im not sure how i would be with them in there? It's really hard to explain! It's not the fact that they are fake, more like it's something there that wasn't there before, KWIM? I would honestly love to get them though.

    I am not to sure of the size i want but i would love to fit into a C cup.

    As for the maitenace side of things, a male freind told me im silly, as you need to replace them in 10 years?? i asked the secretary of the surgeon and she said that ladies have had them in for 20+ years with no problams.

    And i know what you mean about being embarressed TD, i took the plunge the other day with a new man, and he keep telling me how nice my boobies were( without seeing them) and i told him ita all in the bra chicken fillets..so i was so horrified when the bra came off, it was like he was ripped off

    i thank you all for your input, its great there is such supportive girls out there, as i thought most people would just say DONT DO IT.

    appointment in 2 weeks

    just had a look though all my old paper work and it doesnt say, I didnt have ANYTHING I was flater than a 2 year old male child I have to go out to kindy but when I get back I will find the photos I took of before and after ( with swimmers on )and post them for you so you and anyone else can get some kind of idea...

    I know when I was getting them the doctor thought I wanted DD as I was getting 450 I was like NO WAY then when he looked at my chest he said I now I see you really dont have anything there do you ! Nice bedside manner there ...

    thanks Tali. I'm just trying to vision it If you had nothing and had 450mls implants and went to a big B-small C, then my 420mls with the already 200mls, = 620mls, so that should even be a small D. OMG. That is great. But i'm still gonna push for 450mls. If the dr agrees, that's another story.

    I hear you about how the dr's approach your boobies at the consult. Mine was very anxious about touching them at all. He just lifted them slightly and said "my, you do have some sagginess", and i thought "no sh*t, really?" They are very subtle about the subject aren't they

    Cougs - i think boobies = womanly. I had to argue with my DH in getting them. I told them if tranny's can get them, then i am entitled to them as i am a female. I also argued the point to him that YOUR kids made my boobies this damn ugly. They were small, yes, but were perky at least. You have to let me know how your appt goes.

    Hi,
    I had implants put in 5 years ago when i was 23. Mine are silicone gel and are placed behind the chest muscle as i am only a thin build. My incision is in the fold of the breast underneath and my scars are quite thin. I went from struggling to fit an a cup to a nice c cup. The best thing i ever did in my life. I had them done at Adelaide Plastic Surgery Association by Dr Peter Syladis. I took in pictures off the internet of before and afters of other people to show him what size i wanted. Afterwards i had a bad reaction to the anaestetic and some stinging but got by on just panadol and nurophen. I had to have someone help me lay down and get up from bed for the first week and a half. I was told that unless you have a car accident or fall down stair or something similar they should last for 20 years. I have had no complicationa st all over the past 5 years.

    Mine were quite firm to start with but now they are softer. Not as soft as natural breast tissue. When i lay down they feel harder than when upright. When i lay in bed now they ever run away a little like normal breasts. If i didnt tell people they wouldnt be able to tell by looking. My dh loves them.

    I had mine done nearly 6 years ago.

    Well worth every cent!

    Cost me about $9,000 at the time. The surgeon I went to based the type of implants on your body type and he also gave 3 sizes of recommendations to try in your bra to get rough idea of what you'd like. Personal I'd recommend going for the biggest cause pretty much anyone I know thats had it done has and even then alot say they'd like to be bigger.

    I stayed one night in hospital, had drains in both breasts overnight. Pain wise wasn't overally bad cause alot meds make me nasueted I pretty much just took panadol and an anti-inflamotry drug. Pain was mainly an ache when I'd get up in the morn, very hard to do to til you get used to them. Also you have to sleep elevated so that makes a good night sleep very hard.

    If I had $$$ I would so get more stuff done, join you girls on flatter tummy, maybe suck bit out my ass and thighs.

    Oh and you can claim on your tax return under medical expenses part, not sure what the threshold is now but anything after that you can claim 20% back.

    Hey Shel,

    so i guess you had silicone implants, if you had the drains in them.

    What size were you and what did you become? Which plastic surgeon did you see?

    Personal I'd recommend going for the biggest cause pretty much anyone I know thats had it done has and even then alot say they'd like to be bigger.
    That is what i'm scared of. Getting them done and then thinking "sh*t, i should've had them bigger"

    They're actually the silicone ones. I went and saw Mr Rubestein at Epworth, he was really nice.
    I went from A cup to D, and now that I've put on weight I think oh I need bigger, lol, at the time I was about 9kg lighter. You will so love them. I used to get depressed buying bras and tops now love it. When I first got them I was constantly checking myself out, lol.
    I will look tomor for what size and type I got I have it in my draw upstairs but can't wake bubs looking for it.

    I've heard of him. My friend is wanting to get a tummy tuck through him and then i told her that she could have it for half the price through my doc and now she's going to see my doc.

    Geez, A to D. They must look lovely.

    Did you play with them when you first got them? i can't wait to play with mine

    i know you have to massage for a few weeks, but doesn't it hurt initially when you do do the massage?

    How long did you have to wear the special bra for?
