to be very seriously considering a boob job?

Have recently been spending an unhealthy amount of time daydreaming about boob jobs. Have one DD and planning another baby soon but norks have shrunk to almost nothing already so heaven knows what they will look like after breastfeeding another little mite so thought I might start saving. Anyone had implants? Thinking of having them? Know a very good reason why not to have them? Know anyone who has had them and is pleased/displeased with the result?

I'd never really thought of them feeling cold, not that i've noticed but i am a person who feels the cold at the best of times.
I think they are fantastic and so does hubby ;-)

Excellent, Thanks for the feedback KDD!!

Hi Katie, I guess what I was asking was whether your dh finds them natural feeling. The impression, rightly or wrongly, is that implants feel hard - to the person touching them. That is probably in part due to the fact that the oversized ones look hard and gravity-defying.

The more expensive teardrop ones are very natural, not at all footballers wives type.
I think I paid £6,000 all in and I know some people who paid £2,000 so you have to shop around and compare but I also think you get what you pay for and I've sent three other people to my surgeon who've all been delighted.

Mine don't feel at all hard. Lovely and soft in fact! Like a young person's boobs.

Didn't have teardrops as didn't want risk of them moving round and as mine are so small the difference in look would have been neglibible.

Most people's perceptions of boob jobs (or plastic sugery/botox etc) is based on the ones you can 'see' which tend by defintion to be the bad ones - ie too big for the frame etc.

You'd probably be amazed how many peope have had them sdone and you wouldn't notice because they look natural.

Yes I agree with tonton - good plastic surgery should not look obvious.

I think that wrt how they feel, mine certainly feel harder than how they did naturally, but that isn't really a problem either for me or husband /boyfriends I've had. I had it done more for the shape than the size because mine had always been a bit empty at the top even before I had children. I had 345cc overs and that means I'm a 30F which is about the same as pre-children except the shape is better.

I think it would be fair to say that mine give my body a more 'commercial' look, which is something you should bear in mind. It does have an affect on the way men seem to see you ime - not in a bad way but people tend to look at my chest much more than they used to. Perhaps others will be able to comment on this?

Smiles - thanks I couldn't believe nobody had taken it tbh!
