Any1 ever regretted getting their BS..honestly??x

by Susan13x 4th February 2011, 1:25 pm

I have paid my deposit and just waiting now on my date being confirmed..n the doubts have started to kick in big time..ive wanted this for so long n after breastfeeding my baby its so needed but im so worried incase i get it n then regret getting it done..after spending all this money on it (think im feeling selfish coz the money could be spent on my home/family) n im so scared incase something goes wrong getting the GA or afterwards n i leave my baby without a mum (i know the risks are so low but im still so worried).

Has any1 ever gone through with their BA n regretted having it done honestly? Or has all the doubts n worries etc just gone away as soon as you see your new boobs?

Maybe im just stressing coz it feels so real now that ive paid my deposit xxx

no ive never regretted it, but tbh i cant say i was really worried either.
It needed doing (like you, pregnancy and breastfeeding ravaged my boobs) so i got it done and am very glad i did

Best thing I ever did for myself (and I think OH would agree!) dance

Hey sweetie,
I worried a little bit before, mainly because of the money and like you i have a family and could think of a lot of things i could do with it instead of my body, but i knew inside it was what i wanted , i'd wanted it for so long.
Now it's done i'm so glad, even only being 8 days post op i'm so happy within myself and with my body, it's amazing the change in my opinion of how i look already, i can feel the lost confidence all coming back.
And as for the money, my kids have everything they need and never go without ( spoilt in fact ). But you can't buy your own happiness and confidence sweetie.

No I've not regretted it at all. I didn't need it but really wanted it as I'd never had boobs and wanted some so I'd feel like a woman. I'm so happy with them. Yes the money could have been spent on other things. New boobs cost me £3495 but feeling like a woman is priceless, I'd have spent anything.

I have never regretted it at all, it's the best thing I ever did for myself. I didn't get the pre op nerves that most people seem to get but it is very common.

At the end of the day, you deserve to do what makes you happy, and your kids deserve a happy mummy.

I had a lot of doubts after I paid my deposit before my surgery. Thinking the same things you are now about being selfish and that I could use the money on other things. However it has been a little over a month and I am so happy that I went through with it. My sister reminded me that those other things will always be there, why not do something special for yourself.

by Carrie 4th February 2011, 4:51 pm

I understand exactly how you're feeling hun, I was the same Hug

I'm only 2 weeks post op and although still in the healing stages I have no regrets whatsover. Today I stood naked to my waist in front of my surgeon, a nurse and a mirror (my worst critic) - I felt confident and couldn't stop smiling at my reflection!!

by angbabyxx 4th February 2011, 5:01 pm

I never regretted it hun, but it can be quite scarey once the date is confirmed. It's perfectly normal to be feeling like this, I'm sure we all had doubts and concerns, certainly about the op itself. My hubby was so scared I wouldn't come round after the GA, he was more nervous than I was but it all turned out fine and now I am a very happy bunny....hubby too!!!

Good luck hunnie, you'll be fine, honest..... Hug

by carol_s 4th February 2011, 5:13 pm

No, absolutely no regrets about having it done. You can spend that much on a really nice holiday and that lasts just 2 or 3 weeks and who feels guilty about going away on holiday.
No need to feel guilty hunnie and once you are on the other side, the change in how you feel about yourself is, as misf1 said, priceless.

I don't have any regrets either. I was nervous before hand but that is normal and once I had my new boobs I have never looked back. x

by Zzz1981 4th February 2011, 5:22 pm

Hiya babes, I can honestly say although you pay all that money the way you feel afterwards you don't even think of the costs! Were not selfish being half a woman or not feeling womanly is torture! You can't put a price tag on how your going to feel.......it's priceless x x

The best descision I have ever made x

by lilibet 4th February 2011, 6:41 pm

Hi - I have never regretted a minute - was v nervous pre op but once you are the other side, everything is different.

I am generally a confident person but my new boobs make me feel much more womanly which given an inner confidence.

Nerves before hand are very natural- just take a deep breath & remember how long you have wanted it. It's a very common procedure so you will be fine & you will love the new you - without a doubt xx

I think once you've paid the deposit you feel that this has gotten to serious stage. It can be daunting. You wonder if you are doing the right thing. Fantasising about it or even saving for it doesn't feel so doom-some as paying for the deposit. It feels like you're getting to the point of no return. I remember thinking: 'oh my gosh I'm actually paying for this. I'm actually doing it. Is this what I really want?' And the answer is yes because of all the work I put into it. If I hadn't done it I would still be dreaming and wishing for it.

I think when you've dreamed about something so long your idea gets so big and expectant that it can intimidate you once you start making it real. You wonder if you'll end up disappointed. But you can't live like that really can you? Or you'd never get what you ever wanted.

by hazleyez2201 4th February 2011, 9:30 pm

You took the words right out of my mouth? I still haven't had mine yet. I am scheduled for the end of this month. I have been saving/planning for four years now. I did do a deposit two years ago but got too scared two weeks before. I ended up using some of the money on my house so it was a good thing I didn't do it at that time. I feel bad because I am using all of my savings but in the end I beleive it will be worth it.

by Susan13x 4th February 2011, 9:59 pm

Thanks girls i know youz are all right n when im on the other side i will forget all my worries n guilt n will just be so glad that ive woke up n that I have my new boobs!

I cant wait to look at myself in the mirror n like what i see n be able to go bra shopping without getting depressed coz nothing fits me nice.

..deff know my OH will love it too :-) he has been helping me pick the boobs i want out of mags (think hes been enjoying this part a bit as well lol)

It deff does make it feel so much more real when that deposit is paid..got a bit of time before my date is confirmed n to get my nerves together n then once its confirmed i will prob have a whole new set of nerves kick in lol Need to just keep on telling myself that its normal n this is something ive wanted for SO long xxx

by NurseSophie89 4th February 2011, 10:02 pm

Totally natural to have worries like this hun but I can honestly say having my BA was the best choice i ever made and i dont regret it for a second. Im a totally different person now, much happier and comfortable in my own skin xx

by hattie260 4th February 2011, 10:07 pm

I had to have a re-op recently as one of mine didn't drop properly. There were times when I regretted it when i had wonky boobs but ow they are even i have no regrets whatsoever!. My figure is normal and in proportion now and although it has taken a while, I now LOVE my boobies xx

by Crystal 4th February 2011, 10:12 pm

Hi HUn ,

What you are feeling is a normal.........im a mum of 4 little ones & felt the same about the G.A but I was healthy & the risk was very,very small but still didnt make it any easyer for me.

I also put my op off 5 years ago for that very reason & my nerves got the better of me! & I regreted it the moment I spent my money :doh:

But I cant say it was the best thing personally I have ever done for myself & my family............Im no longer self conscious, I can take the kids swimming ( you would NEVER get me in a swimsuit with out me being totally stressed & ruining the day!) I can wear clothes with confidence & feel like women so to me there was so many ++ which made it worth doing.

Youll be fine hun..... Hug

Hey Girls,

I have to just say how much everyones words are helping me. Just reading all the comments are great because I feel the same way. I am going to meet my surgeon tomorrow and pay the deposit. My date will be in March - it's booked for the 30th now but i may move it sooner. I have been wanting this for 12 years. My worries are somewhat regarding the fact I have not had children yet but I feel like I can't keep putting this off.

Reading everyone's advice helps give me confidence that these are jitters and I'm on the right path.

Thanks again

I am a mom too and I had all the same worries as you Pre op. I felt sick about it leading up to it thinking about the possible problems and feeling selfish,

But now... I do not have any regrets, it has been one of the best things I have ever done... The whole process went quicker and easier than I could have guessed, and I feel great. We moms have the hardest job in the world and we deserve to make ourselves happy too!

Don't worry Hun u will b fine and you deserve this!

by clareyd 5th February 2011, 10:02 am

Noooo absolutely no regrets for me either!!! the first time i saw my new boobs properly (a few days after the op) i couldnt believe it! i was literally in shock at what was lookin back at me in mirror! i was literally grinning from ear to ear and i didnt want to put my support bra back on!!!!!! haha... my boyfriend immediately was like omg ur so happy arent u...and immediatley i had so much confidence, i could sit in the bath proud in front of my boyfriend, and walk about without covering my self!! something ive never been able to do and i've been with him 4 years!!!
honestly the money is so worth it!!! :-) xxxxxxxxx
