For anyone feeling nervous about your BA!

Hi guys!

Just thought I’d share my boob story coz I know how helpful it was to read these things before my op and I promised myself if I survived I would do one! So basically I had my BA on the 12th march (Wednesday) with mr Traynor in preston. I got 560cc over the muscle. Ever since deciding I wanted a boob job the only thing I had been scared of was the general anaesthetic, I’d never had it before and was convinced I wouldn’t wake up etc. Anyway after months of putting it off I finally sorted out my date. My admission time was 10.30am so I travelled down that day. When we (me and my mother) arrived we were taken to my room which had a TV and an en suite. Nurses came in to do health checks etc. I was 6th on the list that day so had quite a bit of waiting. At around one mr Traynor came in to draw on me the incisions etc. I thought I would be scared stiff as the op was getting closer but I was surprisingly calm, just watching crap daytime TV. At 2 the nurse came to take me to theatre, my mum walked me there and I kissed her goodbye. I was nervous but just kept thinking there’s no going back, you’ll be out in an hour and you will be fine. The nurse hooked me up to the monitors whilst talking bout uni etc to keep my mind off things. The anaesthetist came in and talked a bit to me whilst prepping me. The IV didn’t hurt but I’m good with pain, doesn’t really bother me, I just wanted to survive. He explained I would feel a cold chill up my arm and said that’s it bye as I was drifting off. I said please make sure I wake up just before I went to sleep and he said he would. Next thing I was waking up in recovery. The nurse asked if I could hear her I said yes. I was expecting to feel groggy and confused but I was perfectly aware of what was going on and just felt like I’d had a good sleep. I was taken back to my room and text my family and friends to tell them I was ok. The nurses came in every half an hour to do blood pressure checks etc until I was discharged at 6.30pm, about three hours after my op. Me and my mum checked into the nearest hotel, the ibis, then went to a nearby restaurant as I was starving! The next day I was fine, travelled home and rested. Yesterday I felt a bit tired and sick but I think that’s because I didn’t eat and I’m not sleeping perfectly ATM (sleeping sitting up is one of the worst things about it!) I’m not in much pain, just a pressure on my chest which is expected as I’ve just had two things shoved into my body! I’m a bit bloated from the meds but I read on the internet before that could happen so I’m just being patient. I haven’t felt sick of dizzy at all, just frustrating as I can’t dress myself ATM or lift my arms etc but obviously that will pass.

Today is my third day post op and I feel amazing! Boobs are looking good, can’t wait for them to drop but that will be a while. Definitely one of the best decisions I’ve ever made and can’t wait to see how they change in the next few weeks! I’m getting bored not working and not being able to go to the gym but it’s the perfect opportunity for me to catch up on all my reading and uni work which is what I’ll be doing the next few weeks. People say on day 3 the pain hits but this is my best day so far, less pain and bloating is starting to go down which is good coz yesterday I could of passed for six months pregnant!

I know this has been long winded but these really helped me when I was scared, I honestly didn’t think I would go through with it but I was so calm and so glad I have now it’s over! I would do it all again in a second! MYA are amazing and you know you are getting the best surgeons in the country and the best care possible! Traynor was so professional and so confident in his ability, I never doubted I would be pleased with the results! If this is something you really want do it and don’t look back. It will most definitely change your life. I was a size 36A (broad with no boob…literally) before, I’m wearing a 38F sports bra (which will go done after swelling). I know that sounds huge but it really isn’t, they look so proportional to my body and have already completely changed my figure! I’m quite curvy, 5ft 7 and a size 10/12 and I needed the boobs to go with it! Don’t let anyone lead you to believe you are doing anything wrong coz you’re not, it’s your body and your choice and I’m so glad I’ve done it!

I don’t usually do these types of things but just wanted to help anyone thinking of getting a BA or anyone who is getting one and is nervous! Good luck!

Sounds fabulous!! have you got any other things that you wish you would have taken to the hospital?? I have Dr Traynor on the 13th May, can i add you hun? i’m wanting 510CC xx

Sure add me! Do I have to do anything for you to add me? Haha I’m not used to these forum things! (I’m only 21 btw not a grandma haha). No all I took was my phone, iPad and some clothes for after etc. I just watched TV before and rang my friends and sister after (who was very worried I was gonna die so I had to put her mind at rest when I survived lol) to kelp me occupied. Then just went to the hotel, ate a ridic amount of food and watched eastenders on my iPad! Dr Traynor is amazing, he made jokes when I said I was scared I was gonna die, obvs coz he knew I would be fine, and he’s very good at what he does. Have you tried the implant sizes on at the clinic yet, or are you just thinking roughly 510cc? Xxx

Mind if I add you Lizzie? I roughly want that size xxxxx

Yeah add Hun. What size are you ATM?xxx

32C xxxxx

Oh cool. I was an A before so yours will end up bigger. In my opinion tho it’s not a massive implant, even though I thought it was xx

Lizzie you just accept it, i will add you now 😀 and yeah i’ve tried them on, that was the largest he offfered, but i’m going to speak again and show him pictures ect when I next go.. i’m booked for 13th May 😀 I’m only 20, 21 in Sept, what are you stats lizzie? yea he’s really nice when I met him and ye I had heard that he can be ‘cocky’ as such but he was perfect 😀 even when I told him i have 2 kids he was still nice to me which I was dreading… Just got to pay it all off now ! Going to be skint for 2 months but will so be worth it in the end . 😀 Xx

Add me again my iPad went weird and now the notifications gone lol. Yeah he’s not cocky just to the point. Just gets on with his job and wants to give the best results. I told him I didn’t wanna be massive and the biggest he offered was 615cc but they were a bit too big when I tried them on. I was gonn go for 415 cc originally but I tired them in again and they were defo too small. I’m 5 7, about 11st and size 10/12, so I needed a top half to fill out. If you liked how they looked when you tried them in go with it. Don’t be scared they’ll look too big coz they won’t! And you don’t wanna be disappointed! What size are you ATM? Xxx

Hope u dont mind the add. Im having 485cc high profile overs with dr traynor on the 26th march xx

I will add you again now hun, and yea its good that though rather than someone who tells you different. Yeah thats what i keep seeing that a lot of people measure up big but don’t look as big sometimes even 2 sizes smaller than they measure up. i’m a 32B atm and want to LOOK a DD xx

No i don’t mind the add Amy. What size you going for? And yeah I reckon you will look a DD with 510s, you would defo go up 2/3 cup sizes with that size. It’s quite a big Implant! Xx

Really helpful to read. I am getting nervous as I am going for my op on my own, but sounds like I will be in good hands.

Are you sure you’ll be ok alone? I still can’t dress myself or open heavy doors Etc. But don’t be nervous about the op. Who’s it with and what size? Xx

Im an overnight stay will hav my phone with me to contact family and friends and my mum and step dad are picking me up from the hospital the next day.

I am having 325cc with Mr Traynor hoping to go from AA/A to a C/D

Reading your storey has helped me loads! I’m booked in for 2 weeks 2day and I’m so nervous and I’m just like u were! Xx

Hi….I’ve been offered 525 (I think), 585 and 605cc’s! You’s are the first I’ve read that have had/are wanting over 500’s! I’m a 36c/d which sounds decent already but they’re v empty after b/feeding! Mr Traynor said to expect to be about an F which I’ve got used to! I went into my appt hoping for a DD! I’m just worried about them sagging quicker with being such heavy implants?! I’m hoping even if I measure an F I’ll look a DD! I’m 5,6 size 12 but hoping to be a 10 in few weeks!! Any advice would be appreciated as I’m driving myself mad thinking I’ve been offered too big although I know he knows better than me!!xx

Thanks for adding your story.. It helps loads reading things like this! Xxx
