    Default Got my BA date set!  Woohoo!!!

    Yep, after much much MUCH thought, debate and research, I've chosen a doc and set my date - April 23, 2003! I can't wait! I'm sooooo excited! The doc says he's gonna go with something in the 625-700 range since I already have alot of breast and my frame can carry it - bigger than I thought but hey I can deal with that! That should put me over a DD! Can't wait can't wait can't wait! I'll be sure to post before and after pics and progress reports so anyone interested in this procedure can follow....

    Can't wait!!!

    Are you going to get overs or unders?

    Thanks for the well-wishes I'm very nervous, but so excited I can't wait. I've been thinking about this for two, almost three years!

    To answer Adina: I'm getting overs since I already have alot of breast and a little sag. If I got unders it would look ridiculous.

    Maybe sharing my experience can help some of you who are thinking about it but also too nervous to take the plunge

    all right Bridgette! Keep us posted. Also be sure to remind your doctor right before your surgery to overfill your implants at least 15% over their cc rating ( 20% is better if he'll do it), so that you'll get that nice perky look and a much lower chance of implant bag ripples showing through your skin which can look really funky when doing "floor work" on stage.

    PS Velvet, re-do surgery is an absolute piece of cake compared to the first time, since the "pockets" are already there. I was actually RUNNING through Atlanta airport one day postop after my last re-do (holding onto my boobs of course!). Also I can tell you from personal experience that when I traded in my 500cc implants for overfilled 850cc's my club earnings went up substantially - the "first impression" factor I guess.

    Yay! Only nine weeks now!

    Mel: My doctor has already said that he always overfills, usually from 575 to 625, or 625 to 700. He said he would have both sets available for me, and will make the final determination on which to use in surgery. With those numbers, seems like maybe I should ask him to fill them a little more? Like maybe 575 to 675 or 625 to 750? What do you think?

    These weeks sure do seem to go slow all of a sudden

    Well, aggieed, I've had PLENTY of pre-op personal examinations of Bridgette's breasts and I'll have PLENTY of post-op examinations when she's back

    well Bridgette, I'm a firm believer that going with a higher percentage of overfill works better for dancers. Check out for my old set of 850cc rated Mcghans filled to 1350cc. The plastic surgeons are usually concerned that housewives want natural looking boobs. But for dancers, implant bag wrinkles can be a double negative. First, we're constantly using our upper body muscles on stage. As the pec muscles expand and contract and as we turn our upper bodies, any folds in the implant bags can rub against each other contributing to an early bag failure (i.e. flat tire!). Second, folds showing through the skin while doing floor work or private dances can weird out customers. Going with more overfill does make the implants rounder and a bit firmer, but I'd take that over folds in the implant bag any day. Ultimately, silicone filled implants are probably a better choice for dancers IMHO but that involves a whole lot of extra complications and extra cost too. I vote 625 rated implants filled to 750cc. The only issue that your doctor may bring up is potentially voiding the warrantee by overfilling beyond the manufacturer's recommendations. Basically, who cares about a warrantee, I'd want great looking boobs that will last a long time. And when it comes right down to it, no implant company is even going to ask about overfill if an implant fails. They're just going to ship out a new one for free and you'll wind up paying a discount surgical and anesthesia fee to have it put in.

    I don't know what's wrong, but I'm not able to open your link. I keep getting 'page cannot be displayed'. Tried refresh several times, no luck

    Anyway, I will talk to my doc about the extra fill. The last thing I want is that horrible rippling I've seen on some girls. He knows I'm a dancer so I don't think he'll have a problem with that. Plus, he is the one that suggested I go bigger than what I initially thought, since I have alot of tissue already. He is definitely on the 'more is more' side of that fence

    Ok ladies, just a little update since I'm so excited counting the days! 5 weeks to go! I guess I'm gonna have to get some pics taken so I can put up some before and after shots. I'm getting my post-op blood test this week (check for anemia). Hope that goes ok :-/
