Telling work/pregnancy

Jessica wrote:Hey, I have another question. Well 2 actually. (I'm sure I'll have loads more!)

1) How much time do you need off work? (I'm a bit worried as I work in an office environment and I don't want people knowing my personal business, but even though I want them to look very natural, I'm pretty sure someone is going to notice! If any of you do work in that type of gossipy environment, how did you approach the issue - were you completely open about it, or were you more like "mind your business!" PS I work with women and men.
This totally depends on the individual but a week should be fine, some go back within days others will take longer but providing you have rested and there has been no complications a week i would say, when back at work remember it is none of their business what you do and a BA is alot easier to disguise than you imagine it to be, soon your news will be yesterdays news and they'll find something else to gossip about, be proud and ignore if i were you.

2) Have any of you gone on to have children after having a BA, and if so, did pregnancy change your breasts again requiring more surgery? That is something I have always wondered.
i waited until after i'd had mine but it was only then i had an issue

Sorry for all the questions lol
Just a tip, post your questions individually with new topics and they will get more viewing then hun

And also start wearing looser clothing before if you are used to wear tight shirts - so you don't suddenly change your fashion style after the op when you will want to wear loose clothes for a while for comfort and also because you will feel a bit self conscious at first. This way people will get used to see you with bigger breasts and they won't notice a difference afterwards, they may think you have gained weight but who cares. Just act natural and they won't know. And if someone does notice, well, as you say, it's none of their business, keep them wondering.

I cannot answer the children question as I haven't had any (pre or post op!). it is possible that your breast will change after pregnancy as it would happen with normal breast. obviouly the implant won't shrink like real breasts do! But you may have loose skin that may require uplifting or filling up with a bigger implant. It is a very individual thing though, everyone's body recovers differently after pregnancy, so you might need no further surgery at all - but you will not know until it happens I am afraid!!!!

Good luck xxxx
