    Hi girls

    I’m 4 days post op & haven’t told my family about my BA

    I always used to wear very padded bras so I’m hoping they dont notice, plus they never see me naked so dont think it will be that noticable!

    What do u reckon? should I just tell them.

    I just dont think they would approve?!

    Iv gone fromm 32A to currently wearing a 36C sports bra due to swelling, had 300 unders.

    I’m 25 but just dont think my parents would approve & would say its a waste of money! just cant stand the hassle of them knowing & not agreeing with what I’ve done. x

    yeah i know what u mean, so long as ur happy n u dnt fink they will find out, cz it prob b worse if ther hear it off sum1 else. anyway, whatever u decide good luck :-) xx

    Hi emma, I havent told my family either – I know my mum will get a heartattack and not approve of it. My dad might be a bit more open minded but still. I hope they will not notice and if they dont ask me I will not tell them either.

    I will tell my sister about it after the BA cos she just worries too much and thats not what I need b4hand lol xxx

    @ Luna – think im the same, Y say if u dont have to.

    I’m hoping I end up a C/D cup when swellings gone so shouldnt be that noticeable as I’ve read they look smaller than they measure anyway, its difficult for me to judge how much bigger they look cus at min their all strapped up with bandages/tape.

    Thanks girls xx

    Hi hun

    When i had my first one at 19 i told my parents but my brother and rest of family didnt know and not many of my friends either.

    I was always in padded bras before too and had 300cc overs and i got away with it for 8 years no one noticed.

    Menu

    hey emma, i told ppl but i really did NOT need to lol. i wore such padded bras before that when i had them done everyone was like: oh they arent big lol xx

    Hi Emma, i didnt tell my ex husband (because he,d moan). I saw him 4 times b4 he said anything, everytime i saw him i ended up with backache trying to minimise the size of my boobs by stooping lol! also thort he wudnt notice as thort the sports bras made u look smaller, but they dont. (+ i wore black loose tops when knew wud b seeing him). He said the other day- why didnt u just say ude had ur boobs done again? u carnt hide em u know u can tell a mile off..haha oh well it was worth a try :roll:..its up 2u if u tell ur fam babe but some1 will notice sooner or later and they mite be hurt that u didnt tell them, maybe start with confiding ur mum? she mite put ur mind at ease and tell u every1 will be happy 4u…do undastand u not wanting every1 2 know tho, i,m a bit the same..good luck darl :wink:xXx

    i had mine done yesterday and only my 2 close friends and boyf know, but i have a 14 yr old son who i didnt want to find out due to him going through his “teenage” phase of me been embarrassing and his his friends fancing me (which i find pathetic) but i didnt want to bring him any problems or have his friends commenting on it, so i decided not to tell him, but i dont think im going to get away with it forever, they are MASSIVE!!! hoping the swelling will go down a lot and i can cover them to an extend with scarves ect.. but i think when we are on holiday or he catches me getting changed i might have some explaining to do!! ha opps bad mum!! hope he will be ok and be mature about it!

    at the end of the day its your body and your money, people will get over it faster than you think, xxxxx

    I didn’t tell anyone apart from a couple of friends that live near me and they didn’t believe I was going through with in. My husband new cos her paid for it ha! I have a 17 year old Daughter that threatened never to be able to love me properly again which really hurt. None of my family know they all live at least 100 miles away but we are all really close and they would have worried to must which adds more pressure. I did it and the day after send all my family and friends I text to tell them asking them not to judge me. I rang my mum and dad to wish them happy anniversary and them just came out with in. They all said that if it makes me happy and I am ok then that is all the mattered. My Daughter was in tears that I had gone through with in. But was soon as i came home and she said me she was fine I think she would I was going to go massive. Niki I think you will have a job hiding them!! I have the same problem with my daughters boy mates but if your sons mates are anything like my daughters friends they will have been calling you a milf !! Before so the boobs will make no difference. I am 8 days post op and have no regrets, in fact I feel like I want to tell the world as I am proud I have done it and proud of them ha x

    hi im the same i just had mine done yesterday and only told my sister and boyfriend. i have worn padded bra’s and chicken fillets for years and just wanted a very slight increase. im kinda feeling like ive gone too big! they look really really noticable wish id gone with the smaller size. i now feel like i wont be able to wear any of my clothes as people will notice straight away! wish id never done it now or wish id just gone with the smaller implant. maybe its cos im only 1 day post op and they are really really swollen and sore and just look stupid! really gutted with myself today x

    yasmin – yeah i didnt tell my parents like. im sure it wont go wrong if u get the size right. thats the hardest thing i think! the whole experience was fine i would do it all over again tomorrow. couldnt fault it. but just wish id got the other size thats my only regret.

    sara – i was a 34a maybe even 34aa (completely flat) you’ll probs think im silly but ive had 230cc and now i wish id had 190cc. i only wanted to go up to a B cup. now im worred im gonna be a full on C – which i think is gonna make me really self consious again!!! i really do hope they go down in size a lot. my surgeon told me this morning that they should go down by either half a cup or a full cup. im praying for the full cup. and pray im gonna be a B! x

    yeah i was the same i spent months looking on the internet at before and after pics. and 9 times out of 10 people who had 230cc ended up a B cup. but they just look huge on my frame and in comparison to what i had before. yeah id defo say i didnt fill an A cup bra unless i had padding or fillets in. think im just freaking out a bit. maybe cos im just home from hospital and sitting at home on my own. keep thinking i wont be able to wear any of the clothes ive got cos its gonna look so noticable now …

    have u booked to get yours done yet or are u still thinking about it? x

    Hi girls

    I had 300 unders from very small 32A & currently now only wearing a 34C sports bra, also feeling happier & think I maybe able to get away with keeping it from everyone as they now look the size I did before with really padded bras & fillets.

    Strapping comes off tomorrow, will see if I’m still happy with the size then when the bad boys r unleashed!

    Thanks everyone for there help, advise & support xxxxx

    I am 1 week post op tomorrow. I have strapping & sports bra on at moment until tomorrow.

    I’m so pleased the swelling seems to be going down & they r getting smaller! -(stange I know as most ppl want theirs bigger).

    I really was regretting size choice earlier in week when I started this post but think I’m adjusting too it.

    I really wanted a natural looking C cup no bigger. as I’m size 10, quiet tall @ 5ft 7″ & 9stone 6ish.

    they just seemed massive & regretted have BA.

    I Hope they remain this size with strapping off.

    sounds like u feel the same as me. ive been crying a lot today since i got home. im so angry with myself for not going with the 190cc. i think the 230cc just look too big on me. i know im gonna end up hiding them. oh well. too late now isnt it. you’ll have to let me know how u get on tomorrow. im getting my bandages off next wed. if im still not happy think i’ll be asking about another op to get these out and the 190 in! why i didnt just do that yesterday i’ll never know. just felt pressure off everyone saying id regret the 190 … x

    Cazza – before my BA id read lots about girls saying to go for biggest your offered & that they regret not going bigger but I didnt feel like that.

    good thing is dont at the moment regret my size.

    I think being in pain makes u feel abit like that.

    I thought iv just blown 4000 to feel like this & to have something there that now I do no want. What we like ay?

    Im sure when the swelling goes down & the pain starts to subside u wil feel alot better about them, I do. just takes time to get used to them.

    even tried some of my old clothes on with them today & TBH u wouldn’t no I’d had them done they look more or less how they did with padded bra & fillets perhaps alittle smaller but only difference is they are all mine – No padding!

    will let u know what happens when tape comes off tomorrow hun & I hope your feeling better about them soon, The girls on here are great & we will all help if ever u need to talk xxxxx

    yeah ive read that loads as well about going for the biggest size your offered etc. but when i had my first consultation i went in and said i want to be 1 cup size bigger and thats it. i know people think u should get your moneys worth but thats not what is about is it. its about feeling comfortable in yourself. and i just wanted to look how i did with the padding/fillets but without actually using them if u know what i mean. now i feel ive gone slightly too big, bigger than what i wanted. i know its hard to judge as im only 1 day post op. but feelin really depressed about it and annoyed with myself for doing it. im dreading tryin on my low cut tops/dresses cos i just know i’ll hate what i see n think they look really obvious … thank u for listening. just finding it really hard today and finding it hard to accept what ive gone and done to myself! xxx

    I felt exactly the same hun & still do at times, as I have air in one boob & it gives me strange sensations at times.

    1 day post op. I’m sure alot of it is swelling as I was more than filling my sports bra 2 days ago and now & its abit baggy.

    I didnt mind not getting my moneys worth either I just wanted slight increase in size as I thought any slight increase was better than what I had.

    I’m sure in a few days u will be feeling alot better about them, u need time to get used to them aswell.

    I have said to my partner today tho when I buy new underwear I will not be buying anything padded as I dont want them looking even bigger.

    that gives me some hope then, lets hope they decrease rapidly! i could kick myself! i was the same kept thinking i was so flat anyway even the 230 wouldnt look that big but think i was wrong. i think if i had of got the 190 at least i could of worn a padded bra to make them look bigger as and when i wanted to. i know that may sound stupid as it defeats the purpose but at least it would have given me the option. feel now like i’ll be trying to make them look smaller! yeah i wont be buying any padded underwear! i phoned my boyfriend before told him i want these out asap. suppose i need to give it a few weeks and see how i feel. do u know how soon u can go back and get them re-done??? xx
