175... Moving on up!

Expansion number 3 was on Tuesday! Went just as well as the others. 50 more in bringing me to a total of 175 on each side! They are almost perfect! another 50 and they will be about the size they will be when I am done but we will overfill to about 300 to stretch the skin enough so that when they put the implants in that they sit in a more natural position. This time I was a teeny tiny bit sore the next morning for a couple hours but it went away pretty quick and was more than tolerable, not even tylenol worthy.

At my next fill (hopefully next week), we will most likely start to even things out. Although they have the same amount in them because of my pectus excavatum (bent up rib cage), the left one sits in about an inch further than the right so I will need two different sized implants in the end to make them appear to be the same size.

Do I dare say that the expansion process is going GREAT! And is almost enjoyable! I've never had boobs before and am quite enjoying not being flat! I even wore a cami with the stupid built in shelf bra today which I NEVER would have worn before without also wearing a padded underwire underneath it. It looked great (I had another shirt layered over it as well)! Regardless it is going well and my hope is that it continues to go well!

  1. So, so happy that things are going so well with this phase! Gives me hope that someday I'll be brave enough to follow suit. Yay for having the pain and stress behind you! Way to go, Jen!
