op tomorrow and just told my mum…

well girls it’s my turn (and mhowie’s!) tomorrow to join the boobie club! and i wasn’t going to tell my mum at all as i knew she would be totally against it and the money it costs but i started thinking today what if something happens to me. so i called her just now and she was chatting away and i just kind of blurted it out (tact has never been my strong point!) she went quite mad although not as mad as expected however someone came to the door so i am expecting an angry call later when it sinks in! she was more concerned about the money it’s costing as she does help me out financially sometimes and so thinks i’m being selfish, which i totally get but i’ve used all my own money and literally haven’t bought anything in months – i can’t wait to buy a new pair of shoes!! and i am 27! anyway it’s done now and hopefully she will come round a bit. i’m still going alone tomorrow but i’m sure she will call which will be good as i’ll be freaking out! and my brother is coming to pick me up on wednesday

soooo… any last minute tips/advice?? i’m not nervous yet which is worrying me but i’ve been so busy i’m expecting the nerves to properly kick in later! and i still have to decide between 385 and 415 overs!!

thanks everyone for all your help and advice so far, this forum has been so helpful xxx

Your mum loves you regardless, expect her to call you back soon

oh and enjoy your special day tomorrow xx

Good luck for tomorrow, I’m sure you’ll love yor new boobs! Look forward to hearing your story. xx

Loved reading this your brave lol best of luck hun, I got up for a walk round and met a couple of girls there that had the same op and that was it then we were in the same room chatting for hours it was so nice (Highgate hosital London) it made the time there amazing you will be fine best of luck and when your mum notices a difference in your happyness after im sure she will come round xx

aww thanks gtikay definitely not brave!! glad you had such a lovely experience hun xxx

My mum took time to come round to the idea as she didnt see the need for me to do it. Dont worry she’ll get there eventually. My mum gets it now maybe you just need to explain how you feel and she’ll see it from your point of view. Chin up, your getting new boobies in the morning!! Im getting mine 1 month today with Ben to so let me know how you get on. xx

well she just called me back and while she’s clearly not happy about it she did say love you and phone me tomorrow when she rung off! phew!

thanks emm, ben and karen have been great so far, i’ll let you know more after tomorrow! (still feels weird saying that!) xx

The hospital experience was brilliant but the aftercare im having issues with but dont let that put you off make sure you have a good PC and surgeon you trust just enjoy your own experience keep us updated best of luck xx

im five weeks post op and my mum still doesnt know, well very limited family know, as far as i know, im sure she would have been on the phone complaining to me otherwise. she will come round, mums always do, they have every right to care, i know i care more about my little man, more then i could ever show xx
