Finally told the family!

Have finally told my family about my breast enlargement & they were suprisingly fine about it! Soooo relieved cus i’ve been having nightmares about it!

My dad knew far too much about cohesive gel implants for my liking though!

My friend told me not to say anything as they might not notice, but wanted to be honest

Did anyone have problems telling their family? xxx

Told my mum – she was not impressed so I said I wouldn’t tell her when I was getting it done. Had op on tues, went for lunch with her today and she didn’t even notice! Will tell her its done once I’m all healed – if she doesn’t notice before! Lol x

Oh dear! My mum wasn’t impressed, but she’s known a while. Think mothers expect u to come home looking like a porn star!

What size did u have? xx

I had 505cc mlp’s. I always wore padded bra so in certain clothes you can’t really tell! Defo think she thinks all boob jobs are to make you look like Pamela Anderson! Lol! She said ‘who’s going to see you anyway? And what does Dave (my hubby) think?’. Couldn’t exactly tell her that he was well excited about getting first grope of my new boobies! xx

Isnt it surprising at how fine they can b about it, i panicked for weeks about telling my mum and she was so supportive..she said rather it b boobs than a baby haha had a bbq yesterday n the whole family was there, like 30 of us n im only 4 days post op n was worried wt they wud all say but they were all so supportive… Cracked a few jokes bout it tho lol i half showed my boyf my boobs b he was like oh is that it… Think he was worried id end up like jordan or summert lol

ull feel such a weight off your shoulders now they know

lol! My mum said that too, who’s going to see them? like everyone who has their boobs done walks around topless or something! My hubbie is excited too, but not something u wanna tell ure parents ha ha!

I was so suprised, apart from being called silicone sally(!), they were all really fine about it! I already feel a big weight off my shoulders, now everyone knows I can also talk about it as much as I want!!

How are you ladies healing? I am starting to cack myself a bit now it’s all booked! xx

Whens it booked for… I had a bad first 4 days but really starting to feel much better. Want time to go faster so i can start to enjoy them hehe def worth it all though

Hi Katiejo, l am 17 days post op and still have not told my mum and dad, they live 4hrs from me but l feel crap cause everyone knows inc inlaws. My mum 5 years ago lectured me when l was thinking about it and said why do u want that foreign object in ur body??

Its harder now cause both my mum and mum inlaw suffered from breast cancer 1 year ago so the subject about boobs is bit more sensitive although they are both fine and recovered. l feel guilty that l am having more but in, when they had theres removed if u know what l mean. (mum in law been fine with me)

Anyhow l wll pay them a surprise visit and see how they react dont know about ur parents they seem to think my hubby leads my decisions all the time whch frustrates me big time.

Just easier overall not to say anything lol

Finally plucked up the courage to tell my Dad yesterday and he was fine!!! So relieved, he just said ‘if it makes you happy, I’m happy’ …pheweeee!

Told my Mum, sisters and my friends a few weeks ago and they were ok, on the whole! yippeeee…all over with so can concentrate on getting even MORE excited now lol xxx

I haven’t told anyone yet. I think I’ll do it a month before. x

OMG my mum was slightly hysterical… she came out with ‘By the time you’ve finished you’re not going to look like my daughter’ to which I said very calmly ‘and how is that then mum?’. Her response was ‘Well, you straighten your hair now and dye it blonde and now you’re having silicone put inside you. What happens when it leaks???’. Again I calmly explained to her that she was being slightly (!) ridiculous and about the advances of silicone implants since ‘her day’ and she promptly shut up. Now she just keeps saying, let me know how ‘it’ goes. The day of my op (Tuesday) is also her 25th wedding anniversary with my stepdad, lol. Quality timing me thinks!! xx

I think the whole world knows about my BA lol, my mum supported me from day 1 but her main worry was the operation going wrong and me “turning into a tart!” i am now 12 days post op and i have not turned into a tart so she hasnt mentioned that since. My dad still doesn’t like the fact iv had it done as he said it will attract men! A few of my aunts were horrified when they found out and couldnt understand why anyone would want to get it done! iv yet to go back into work which i am actually dreading! it will be like “oh hi amanda did you have a busy 2 weeks off work” … “erm yes i just thought id get a boob job, you know how it is ….”

hahaha same here with work, i work in a clothes shop so loads of people i know come in all the time. and only a few of the girls there know ive had it done so when i go back everyone else is gona be like… so you have a good 2 weeks off, what did you do..erm… nothing ( . )( . ) haha

Lool see i work in an office so im dreading having meetings and stuff!! only a few of the woman know there cos i had to tell them to take the time off! if anyone says “ohh i notice your boobs have got bigger” i might have to say “i grew these babies over night with the little help of a surgeon ” hehe

God, I feel so sorry for those of you having to go back to work! I was always bad enough walking into work with a new haircut, let alone new boobs lol!

Think it’s a generation thing, where parents seem to think women only get their boobs done to attract men(I’m married with 2 kids, but think my mum still presumes this lol).

Can’t believe some of u haven’t said anything, don’t think I’d have the willpower to keep it a secret, so excited! xx

Ha ha love this post! I was dreading telling my dad as I lost my mum to breast cancer when she was just 39 but luckily he said “go for it, you’ve got to be happy, you only live once” so that made me book my consultation!

The mother in law thinks it’s ridiculous but then she’s old school and my hubby is so excited all the time, he’s like a kid at Christmas! Still 9 weeks to go yet xx
