Hi just wondering if anyone else had children and what u told them. i have a 5 year old girl and she is so aware of everything she is going to stay with her dad for the weekend have mine done but im unsure whether to tell her where im going b4 i have them done or just wait till she gets back and explain!!! lol i know it sounds strange but i dont want her worrying while im away if she knows im in “hospital”!!!! any advise?? xx
i told my 5 and 2 yr old i was having a sleepover with grandma, when i got home my eldest asked if i’d grown, i said everyone grows when they get bigger and thats it, i also mentioned i had tummy ache ton explain not been able to do much, 13day po and shes forgotten xx
i have a 6 year old and ive just told him that mummy needs to go into hospital so that the doctors can fix me, hes worried bout me getting put to sleep tho but ive told him that its just like going to bed at night and goin to sleep. he seems happy enough with that for the moment and once im all done i will explain that the doctors needed to fix mummys chest, only when he asks tho x
Hey, i have a 5 yr old girl too…. im just gonna just be honest & say mummy is having a little operation on her tummy cause I will be at my mums for a few days & I will be fine….could you imagine telling them really what we are doing & them telling their teachers… ha I would be so embarassed…. hope you manage to sort out your dilema
My 9yr old son told hes bunch of mates yesterday my moms had new boobs lmao i couid of died xx
Hi I know a lass where who had a BA before me and her daughter spread it around school! Little lass was only five but guess it was really embarrassing for her… So I thought what am gonna tell my girl. I told my 5 year old I have an operation on my shoulder that’s why I couldnt lift anything and thats why she had to help me with my 12 month old son that time. She never asked any questions afterwards. If she would ask Id tell her that everyone grows by eating their vegetables:) that would definitely work with my little girl lol xxx
I think,when i first had mine done,They was that big and swollen i couidnt hide it xx
I will tell my little boy, I don’t like to keep anything from him. He is goin to his Daddy’s, however he goesbthere during school holidays anyways, he will just notice afterwards…cos I’m having a TT as well. Xx
Yep mel,its best to be honest an save the shock! xx
shes not my daughter but i live with my 7 year old sister and theres no way she wouldnt notice shes 7 going on 18 seriously haha im gona leave it another week then ill be a week pre op and then ill sit down and tell her, no point in lying about it ill just be honest with her. shes old enough to understand and ill drill it into her head its a secret and not to go shouting it about like she did when i got veneers on my teeth
plus she’ll prob love being my nurse for a few week haha xx
I said,my boobies was very unhappy but a good man was goin to help them! but they wouid hurt after so he wouidnt be able to dive on me an elbow me! and bless him,he didnt
xx
I was thinking the other day about how to go about this with my two kids. I’m going with the shoulder op… cheers, luna! 😉
My 15 year old son didn’t speak to me for two days when i told him i was having my boobs done lol!!! His exact words were “you’re pathetic” haha! He’s ok about it now, think he was more embarrased then anything…My 12 year old took it on the chin on the other hand and he was really excited for me lol xx
I have a 4 year old girl and I was very honest with her, as I was worried she would squish my boobs, or do her normal trick elbow in them when trying to snuggle me. She was really good about it, and is facinated by ‘mummy’s big boobies’ now. On the flipside – she did happily tell all her preschool leaders and my ex husbands family,…lol Oh great joy!!
x
haha tweetie bird!! luna thats a good idea about the shoulder op…..
Ahh mines almost 11 so no point not telling her…..said I’ve lost all the weight I wanted through diet and exercise but my boobs just won’t behave! She thinks I’m insane and ‘having a senior moment’…..ffs I’m 28!! However she’s a star and has said whatever makes you happy, I ignored the comment she made about my bum, apparently that should be my main focus….kids!!! Xx
I told my little boy, he’s only 3 but was quite aware anyway, he sees me naked/in underwear and there was no chance I’d be hiding the tapes I had to wear..
..all he’s said is ‘oooh sexy boobies’ and my niece said ‘looks like my Mummy now’.. who was already gifted in that department lol, we’re not a shy family in that way x
@ zombiegirl your welcome
my daughter understood that she had to be careful with shoulder and upper body part so it was fine xxx
My daughter is 11 and she asked me today was I having an op and when.. I told her.. she started calling me boobie lady, and she said she wouldnt tell anyone because its none of their business.. arrh.. thats my girl! was worried about her feelings towards BA’s and didnt want her to think it was something taken lightly.. it took me fourteen if not more yrs to decide.. Eldest boy, laughs at me when I am on the site.. and my youngest is a boob freak at four, beast fed him too too long I think.. So I ve got to watch he doesnt knock me or jump on me.. OOh help.. X 😯
I have a 12 yr boy and 14 yr old girl. My boy was emabarrased about it, i dont think he has told anyone, but he was obsessed with texting me the 2 days i was away, wanted to know when i went to theatre when i came out. Then the day i come home, he come home from school early ill.!!! lol. he must have been so worried.
My daughter has special needs and took it all in her stride, Just asked what they done when i got home, and had been fab with me since i come home. bless her. xx
Aww you kids sound good as gold shazzy! It’s amazing how much they worry about us isn’t it?! For all my daughters cockyness I caught her researching it over the weekend, she’s one of those that needs to know everything for her to be ae to relax!! Xx
Its good to be honest Jen, make them feel all grown up, And not left out.
Love the comment about the bum haha. Typical 11 year old girl haha. xx
so i just told my 7 year old sister as i live with her and she needs to know i need peace after the op. its 2 weeks to my op and i wanted to give her abit of warning to get her head around it instead of telling her the day before.
it went well just explained when your a child u have no boobs but when your older u have boobs but sumtimes u want them abit bigger so you look nice in bikinis haha i showed her an implant as she was curious and was easier to explain. she cried at one point sayin she didnt want the op when she was older
so had to explain its through choice and not sumthing you need. shes aware of exactly what happens and i said the doctor told me i need lots of rest so ill be in bed all week and may have abit of stinging lol she was fine about it all and i think she understood it all, she also pinky promised she’ll never tell any1 (we’ll see) lol xxx
