    I had mine done 10 years ago. It was the best decision I ever made. If you want it, do it!

    "Best decision I ever made" Wow. That must be one impressive boob job? :noway: :laugh: (Smileys make everything nonoffensive and just fun)

    Having a breast lift is one of my rewards for when I lose all of my weight. If it is what will make you happy, go for it. Do not listen to anyone but your self :smile:

    I love mine! I had them done in March. It was money well spent - worth every penny! I finished having kids and lost 50 pounds and considered it my reward. I give, give, give as a mom, a wife, and a nurse, and I deserved to do something for myself. It is amazing to feel sexy again!

    I second this. You look just fine the way you are.

    I hate breast implants, but only because they make my spectacular natural ones look less impressive.

    Do what makes you happy.

    I plan to get mine done one day, after they're all sad after having kids. If it makes you feel good, go for it! Just do a lot of research on your doctor...

    I thought about it seriously for a while. I am a small b after my 3 kids. And not a nice shape or perky at all.

    Then I realized! I can wear good padded bras, I look pretty athletic and the way clothes fit with smaller boobs is naturally slimming? Not many people see me in the naked way (if my husband wants to judge me for that he better hope I don't start critisizing back). My skinny dipping days ended long ago and....

    If I want to spend that kind of money I would buy myself a boat, or vacation, or truck, or better camper, or part of my kids college in a few years. So many ways to spend that money!

    I liked this response a lot. I'm currently dealing with breast deflation and it's taken a wicked bite out of my ego. The girls were a 32DD and are dropping now to a 32C. It's hard not to gain back the 10lbs I worked so hard for to have the boobs back.

    Thanks for making it seem less disastrous.

    I got a breast augmentation almost a year ago. I was never happy with what I had. I ended up going from a C to a full D. I am happy I did them. I went with silicone and under the muscle which is my opinion is the way to go. The scars are minimal, but the recovery was the hardest part for me. You can't do any strenous exercise for about 8 weeks, then you can do light exercise. Keep in mind that the implants are place high up and over a few months to a couple years, they have to drop into place. I had to be careful with running because the gravity could make them settle uneven. But now I run no problem. I say if it makes you happy, do it! Feel free to ask me any questions about it.

    Not sure how my opinion will be received, but I'm all about trying (at least for myself) to accept our bodies exactly as they are. I can't say I have achieved that and to be perfectly honest I would love a tummy tuck to remove the dangling flap left after the last kid. American culture emphasizes the erotic and fashion appeal of the female breast to the point where so many women have implants that it's hard to admire breasts because they're all fake! That said, if you are finished with their function for feeding babies and are really unsatisfied with their appearance, and have the means, change them. If you still have a need for them for what they are intended, I would hold off to preserve function. One thing that hasn't been said yet that you might want to consider, too, is whether or not the sensation of the nipple will be preserved. I've heard that there are procedures that leave the nipple alone so that's not a problem, but if you like the sensation you get from them when your partner stimulates them, think about what it would be like not to have that. Investigate carefully what the different procedures are, how they're done and what the possible undesirable consequences could be.

    I have a friend who is using herbs to make hers rounder, fuller, and perkier. She says it's working! The herbs are Saw Palmetto and Fenugreek. I think she's taking them in capsules but you could try tincture as well.

    Fenugreek does work. Just be careful if pregnant or nursing or trying to get pregnant.

    I always had D/DD until breastfeeding and taking up running. Dropped to a small C and hated the way i looked naked. I had a lift and small implants to replace the tissue taken out during the lift and what i had lost and I could not be happier with the results. They are back to looking like they did when I was 14. Do your research, make sure you get a board certified doctor with a lot of experience. Go to at least three consults and join one of the many thriving communities online for support. I love the women I've met through justbreastimplants.com/forum !

    I wonder what would happen if I took that :smokin:

    it works somewhat. but it is stinky and any gains you see will be lost as soon as you stop taking it.

    Best thing I have ever done for myself!

    ^^This.

    Just remember they do not last forever, they will need to be replaced after about 10 years.

    If they aren't "perky" implants won't lift them, you may have to consider a lift as well, if they are only deflated (at the top of the breast) they will fill that area up and look natural. Do your research, see before/after photos and call past clients if you can.

    That is a myth. (per my PS) They don't need to be replaced every 10 years. I have friends with very old implnats and that look and feel great. Almost better now than in the beginning!

    I think a guys opintion counts for a lot.
    I've always wanted better "girls" but don't have the money to spend, thought too much about what others think of me (being petty or self-absorbed), my hubby doesn't like fake - he likes to see them moooovve, & realized that I'm having a hard enough time getting rid of the extra weight on me...I don't want more!! :)
    With that said, I think if it helps your self-esteem & you want to do it, go for it!!! It's your body & I give all you ladies props for going through with it :)

    I think if it will help you feel better about yourself, then do that. There are options too. You could get just a lift, or implants or both. But remember, once the surgery is done, it's done. Be sure that it is what you want. Can a push up make you feel just as sexy? Think on it, and don't let anyone else make the choice for you. Good luck either way! :)

    I respectfully disagree. Women cannot know what it is like for a man to want his penis a certain way to make him feel better and more confident, so how can a man know what a woman needs to be feel confident and sexy about her breasts? You need to do this for YOU. So really, nobody can tell you if you should do it or not. Hope I am making sense.

    I'm enjoying mine for as long as I can. Mom had breast cancer at 55. I'm 47 now.

    Victoria Secret has some great bras I like

    I'm also now forever fearful of surgery of any kind. My hubby went in for a simple shoulder scope at 37 and never woke up. oxygen problems, 1/2 his brain was killed. He is not and never will be the same. All surgery can be dangerous and/or deadly.

    Good luck with whatever way you go.

    I definitely do not need implants (I am DD at the moment); however, I do have a little excess skin from massive weight loss (100 lbs so far). Has anyone had a little excess skin removed and reshaping done (reshaping, NOT reduction)? Is it as expensive as getting implants?

    Go for it! Best decision of my life!...and as someone suggested justbreastimplants.com/forum has some great information and support. =) I learned a whole lot before ever getting my breast augmentation just by visiting this site. Breast Augmentation has become such a simple surgery and recovery is relatively simple. Good luck with your decision!
