September Buddies

Thanks Princess. See I'm still LOOKING at boobies! I am determined that I will feel as excited as I did pre BA xxx

Thanks Mrsg I pm'd you xx

Princess

WOW. WOW. WOW. WOW.  

You were NOT kidding. Babygirl I can see just by your strut poses how proud of those babies you are, I am so happy for you, I really am made up for you. They look shamazeballs they really do.  

 

AND they are only gonna get better babe. Congratulations xxxx

Yep checking my temperature. ... I'm ok I think ... Maybe if there was a scab I've picked off or something... Nothing serious its just scary haha every little thing!!! 
Sounds like we are all doing ok though even though we are having a few down moments... :) xx

Could I have a peek princess? :) xx

Awwwwwww sassy, this is unlike you babe. Im sure come Tuesday you will feel differently. Perhaps you got a bit of booby blues...... It's probably not helping with all strapping on..... Bless ya...... Chin up babe....

Jen, I'm sure you be o.k Hunni and no infection. Think I'm getting the old piriton in for the itching..... I'm starting to scratch thinking about scratching......... Oh dear............ 

Well girls I've done my e.mail of complaint, made it a good one. Just got to wait and see. I've said that I should be compensated for loss of earnings, I don't hold much hope but if you don't ask you don't get....... We will see.... Keep you all posted.......
Me and hubby thought as we got a day off tomorrow ( not going there) we would go and have lil drive to the queen Elizabeth hospital and have a look around. Get our bearings
And see if we can have a look around where I will be. It's such a huge hospital. Never been there..... Don't know if it will take my mind off things but its a drive out.............xxxx

Good bizzy,make sure you stress the impact changing the date has had on your home life, work life, and overall emotional well-being. Go here crossed!!

Glad we've managed to perk you up a little sassy, and THANK YOU so much for your kind words, I'm so so happy with them, but it's nice to hear someone else confirm the results....I had to be so so brave to post the before pic, but I needed to to show how incredible  my surgeon is!!  

I've messages you Jen!! 

Xx

Aww wow pinkprincess they are looking great already! Your surgeon has done a great job :) and the fact that they will grow is amazing! When's your first top up?! Xx

4days!! Can't wait, he said he will fill up about 40cc depending on what he thinks my body can take yet, so I'm very excited, wonder how much visual difference that 40cc will make?! 

Thank you Jen, he really did have his work cut out, but he has done an awesome job!!! 

Xx

Didn't know if you had seen ny reply in your "bonding"  post sassy, so thought I'd put it here too....


First of all, I applaud your honesty...it's not all rainbows an unicorns (although we all would like it to be-and glitter, lots of glitter, and cute babies, and Prince charming on white stallions, and and and ok I'm getting giddy!) But yeah, it's not an easy straight forward process,having a ba and then suddenly booom you're in love with your new body. 

Regardless of whether you're strapped or not, the first few months are full of changes, looking at pics on Google of before and after stages just show that (I sound like a wise owl, with a wealth of experience, but I'm only 10days post op....but I HAVE done a lifetime of research,  both medical and emotional. Also I have spent a shockingly large portion of my time on her before and since I got my Bristols (as in cities..ya know t*tties!) And since, like to the extent that I think I may have a problem....) 

Anyway up until yesterday, mine still felt very alien to me, I didn't really look at them, and had them hidden under lots of clothes since my ba, but yesterday I just had some time on my own, so I turned the lights down lo---nah, not really, just kidding but I did had a good look, from every angle, set up a pic trail (for myself at first but decided I would share--was feeling brave!!)   Looked at the before pics, and cos I was feeling more mobile in my arms (bye bye t-rex arms!!) I tried some tops I wasn't comfortable in before, and I fell in love. Just like that. It's like Shakespeare really, if you think about it. No? Ok but seriously, give yourself time, right now they may feel too big,but they are going to change shape, the swelling go down, and the shape (even if the size doesn't change) can make a big difference. Once you get to the bra wearing stage you can go by yourself and find some things that will make you feel more confident, even if it's just for yourself! 

I really hope that's helped...or at the very least made you smile chin up, boobs out, that's the way! 


Xx

xxxxx Thanks Princess xxxxx thats really sweet of you. I'm sure I'll pick up. I really am trying not to let it get to me and remember how excited I was before the op.  I'm back to looking at pic's of Scarlett Johannson (the boobie pics I gave to my surgeon whilst exclaiming 'I want what she has!!!!! Make me Scarlett!!!!') Mr Frati is famous for getting girls the look they want so I'm sure its just the boobie blues. I hope.

Hey are you awake for the next fill??? Do actually see the next 40cc's go in???

Bizzy let us know how the complaint comes along, I can't believe how much **naughty word** luck you've had honey but like I said before, when it finally happens you'll have the smoothest run of us all - deservedly!!! xxxx

I'm not sure either! I think it will make a difference...

I was choosing between 410 and 460 so a 50cc difference and when I looked at all of the measurements I found that the projection was 1cm difference and that the width of the 410 was 11.8 and the 460 was 12.3 so I do think you will see a difference everytime :D xx

Good luck bizzy! Fingers crossed for you, it's worth trying!! Xx

Well the surgeon I'm sure said the width of my implant is 13cm....but after looking on line that doesn't really add up to the volume he said....it would make my implant a maximum 480cc fill (they can be overfilled safely though) and I'm sure he said my implant will be maximum 320cc (but again safely can be overfilled) so I don't know maybe he decided on a bigger implant....I will get it all cleared up on Thursday, I want the brand written down (there are 2 brand of expandables) and the size obviously batch number etc.....will deffo take some before and after pics to see the difference, if any!!!

Xx

But are you awake for the fill....??????!!!!!! xxx

Sorry didn't see your post sassy (and your welcome!!) Yup, awake, he just access a the port under my skin with a needles, like getting a vein, then the saline solution goes in this special device which means it transfers throughout to the needles from the bottle without touching the air keeping it absolutely sterile and eliminating any contamination risks at all, so I just lie there, he finds the ports, and pumps me up!! Easy!! (I hope it's all as plane sailing as that!!) 

Xx

Ok if you can stand his over Americanism, there's a video of the procedure on you tube...( he's NOT my surgeon btw!! How anyone would trust him is beyond me, but each to their own!!)

If you can see that properly the link is here

expandable implant video!!

Strange but apparently painless....I will be the judge of that on Thursday though!!

Xx

Wow they looks great lol... Just like having an injection!! Xx

I know!! Nothing to be nervous of, just excited to watch how they change over the coming months, cos obviously to ME at least they feel big already, and I'm already head over heels in luuurrrvvveee with them. My amazing man loved me before and loves me still, he had a propped look this morning (wink wink) and I concluded that he loves them too...ALOT!! I feel so much more confident already!! 

Xx

*proper

Aww that's great :D my boyfriend keeps laughing to himself when he looks at them thinking he's really lucky!! I just managed to wash my hair over the tub by myself! I wore two sports bras lol... Mum was there on hand to help but after drying it I'm worn out haha... Having a lay down xx

Thats really cool Princess xx

Glad you've managed to wash your hair Jen, was gonna have my neighbour do mine the other day just havent felt up to it. Maybe tomorrow xx

Sassy big hugs... I can see your feeling down, it's sooo emotional this journey... Yesterday day 6 was the first time I felt the need to do anything really, all I can say is ride through the down times because you won't feel like this for long I promise you xxxxxxxxxx

Pink princess, thankyou Hunni for kind words. I have made sure I got every point across. It was rather long e.mail. I am writing to them too to express my points..... So glad you are happy with yours, and they will just get better and better......

Sassy, will keep you posted on everything, my bad luck got to be on way out now surely........ I've had my lil share. Onwards and upwards and start looking forward to the next date......
I think when the strapping comes off that will be your turnaround point. I'm sure you will be very happy then..... Every day makes a difference though. I really hope you feel better soon.xxx

Bizzy were already half way through September! With our birthdays to look forward to (I'm sure it was you who had a bday this month ... If not ignore this part haha!) it will be you really soon!! Hope everything's going ok for you xxxx

Just wanted to add a big:thanks: to all the September buddies who have picked me back up again. I think I turned into a vile person Friday. I had to doña staff meeting on Friday and those poor girls, I think I started to spit venom and my head started to spin...... Like a woman possessed. Poor hubby too, jeeze bet he couldn't get out the door quick enough Saturday. 
Mind you I had a bouquet of flowers at work, also when I got home a tedmund bear was sat on my bedside with a card...... Bless him.......
Anyway thanks to you all, you are great. Xx
