So today I had to go to the doctor for a infection not fun. But I did find out that once this infection is cleared up in about two weeks my doctor will give me a referral to the plastic surgeon for a breast reduction.
Most who know me know this is something that I have wanted since high school. It will be so nice to be able to buy cute bras, not have to go to a special store to even hope I can find a bra that fits. I will be able to wear button up shirts again. I will no longer have back and neck pain. Heck maybe I can have a conversation with some guys and they will look at me and not my chest. Yes I know there are a lot of women out there who wish they were more blessed in the chest, but for me I'm way to blessed.
I was really hoping that after I was done nursing my daughter that I would get a little smaller than I was before, well if anything I think I'm a little bigger than I was before. I know that they will probably want me to lose at least 10% of my body weight which is fine with me since I'm already trying to lose weight. This will just help motivate me even more to lose the weight and then keep it off afterwords so that they don't grow again.
This could all take awhile to complete, since I will have to be approved by my insurance. Please pray that they will approve me for this. If I do not get approval from Kaiser then I have no clue when I will be able to have this done. I know that this surgery is not cheap. I also do not go into this lightly. But for me the benefits out way the risks by a lot for me.
My husband, well he is standing me hind me. Does he wish I would stay the same size I am now, sure but what man wouldn't. He does understand why I want this so much and because of that he is supporting me 100%. Though I did tell him just the other day that he needs to be prepared to take time off of work to help me afterwords. He looked at me and said why. Ugh sometimes I just want to smack him.
Um hello hunny your wife will be having major surgery and not be able to do very much for a while that's why. He has had surgery in the past and should remember how much I had to do for him afterwords. You would think that since what I'm having done is way more invasive that he ever had that he would get it, but oh well I guess not.
So please pray that Kaiser will approve me for this so that they will pay for the surgery for me. If not then please pray that I will come up with a way to pay for it myself someday in the near future.
