Annie - When do you go back to see your surgeon? My BMX path results were fine, so no one bothered to call me after the MX. I got them when I went in for my regular post-surgical check up. No calls is good news I think! Boring results don't require phone calls. I am hoping for no call, but for your own sanity you should have your husband call before the weekend. Take care. - Jean
Soft hugs to our Wednesday surgery sisters. Let us know how things went!
Best wishes to our Thursday surgery sisters - you will be fluffing before you know it!

Annie,
I would have started calling last Friday! I would have been sitting in the dr.'s waiting room by now waiting for the mail, or fax to come so I could get it myself!

wow I finally got caught up...
Lorraine 36DD way to go girlfriend : - )
Sue I hope you can buddy up with another gal from NE, we would love to have you join us
Sue thanks for sharing. Sisterhood is such a great thing
Hi Kristin/skippyrcis, wow your face is as beautiful as the rest of you if you don't mind me saying. When you are happy with your size I would suggest to get another fill of about 60-100 because it seems like we always end up smaller than the TE.
Sharon/Montanamom I'm 41 and I remember my parents having a party line when I was real little. Thanks for the happy memories. Yes silicone implants get very cool to the touch when it's cool out.
Jean ... boob warmers what a good idea
Deb sorry to hear about your cat and lap top
Bonnie/Bkokie after my exchange I was just super tired for 3 days from being knocked out. I only had to use the pain pills the 1st night. I'm a very active person and my PS asked me not to run or bike for about 4-6 weeks after my exchange. But I'm thrilled to say last night I was out for 40 miles in 75 degree weather. Give it time and you'll feel really good again. My last exchange was Dec 11 if someone is wondering. I think I had my surgery on Thur and went back to work Monday. I just tried not to lift more than 15 lbs for the 1st couple of weeks.
Lexi I hope you are starting to feel better.
Jaimieh I will try to check this out later: I have a double chamber Sientra 470 that is A- 14.2, b- 12.7 and C- 5.5 Does any of this make sense to anyone ??
Northstar depending on your rib cage size usually you get better projection with high profile implants
Kathie/sam1991 thanks for posting so soon. I'm happy to hear things are soft : - )

Ladies,
I haven't been on much -- my husband was admitted to the hospital Tuesday with what we thought might be a heart attack. He's been undergoing tests ever since, all of which have turned out just fine (no heart attack). Tomorrow is gallbladder test, and then if that's okay - we're just stumped. the days have been long (12 hours) - so I'm a little tired. Needing some sleep...
God bless all who are having/recovering from surgery.

I just thought I would post both the mentor & the Natrelle web site so we have them together to compare...

psalmist sorry to hear about your DH. One time I had a friend's husband who thought he was having a heart attack and realized it was a side effect from drinking too much caffine. I just thought I would mention that and hope it's something minor like that.

psalmist, so sorry to hear about your dear husband, prayers are with you both!! big hugs, hang in there sister!

Jaimieh I tried to find your expander on line but had no luck. But I did have time to look at the mentor web site and the mentor high profile 600cc is 14.0 by 5.6 which is close to your expander shape. So if you like your expander shape you should like this implant.

So sorry that your DH is in the hospital. I pray that the doctors will find what the problem is and that it will be an easy fix.... My DH was found to have acid reflux several years ago after spending time in the hospital. Keep in touch and let us know what you find out.....you and DH is in my thoughts and prayers.....
Sandy (grinder) you must have paper and pen in hand as you are reading the posts and are taking notes so that you can make your comments. That is what I would have to do because my brain would not remember everything that I just read......
Hope everyone who has had surgery this week are healing quickly and that you are feeling fine and some of you are very SOFT.....

psalmist - and this afternoon I was on these forums and usually run into your posts and so I was WONDERING where you were...I am going to pray for your husband tonight and pray for wisdom for the medical care providers and for something very benign to be the cause. My heart goes out to you....for having such a scare.
Hope all of the ta-ta sisters having surgery this week are doing well....praying for you gals!

Sharon I agree with Jean that I find that my expander gets cold quicker too. It seems like they are too close to the surface or something because they are insta-cold. Jax - my pecs seem to go into a spasm when the expanders get too cold too AND...today I had a scare and really jumped and my pec muscle was freaking out for a couple of hours...
Thanks for the kind words Jean! Do you know that I have a bra that I bought from a specialty bra store (mast bras, etc) and it has a thin lining with a little slot in the side where you can place a little "puff" if you need to even out your expanders. This would work perfect for a little fleece pad!! You are a genius...I'm going to cut up an old fleece scarf and see if it works!!! Too smart! Patent the idea for sure, but what to name them??? Furry Fooby Flaps? Toasty TaTa Toppers?
Deborah - I am so very sorry about the loss of your cat. A long time pet is another member of the family and the loss is just as hard. My computer crashed a few months ago and I thought all the pictures were lost too but I did some research and found that pictures can be recovered with the right software. It can cost a couple hundred dollars to have a tech do it but it was worth it to me. I had literally thousands of pictures on my hard drive and they were able to recover more than half of them.
Firstmate - Drains totally suck and I am sad that you will have to deal with them again.
Lexi - congrats on exchange! One more done
Northstar - It is wonderful that you have a date to look forward to.
Tracey - Yeah to clear scans!! One more answered prayer!
Annie - Praying for path report to come back clear. With all these amazing ladies praying it can't come back anything but good.
Kathie - Yeah! Thanks for posting so quickly! Great to hear that you are doing well.
Sharon - I too am old enough to know what a party line was. My number was 4 ring 1-2.
Psalmist - I am praying for your husband and hoping that nothing major shows up on his tests.
Does anybody else worry about forgetting someone in their nightly prayer routine? I lay there and try to think of each person by name and I am worried that I've missed someone. Then I pray to God to help my menopausal brain remember all the ladies I want to pray for!!!

What has happened to this topic and how it appears on my computer screen? or is it just my computer? All the posts seem to be too long on each line and I have to move the screen to the left in order to read each line. This is irritating to me. So is it a problem with my PC? I got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning LOL :-(

Linda, the same thing happens with this topic on my computer. It is very annoying and hard to read the posts if you have to scroll to the end of the line all the time.

I thought it was me. I was on my laptop last night when it happened but now I am on the computer downstairs. I thought I had somehow changed the screen view.

It's the links to the websites. They go long and don't "wrap" to the next line so we all end up moving side to side to see the posts.

Yvonne - Thanks, I needed a laugh this morning. "Toasty TaTa Toppers": I love it!
Kathie - I'm so glad you're soft and happy!
It's been two weeks now since I got my new girl, and she's nice and soft all over now. Still waiting for the flatness to go away, but overall I'm happy.
Best of luck to today's and tomorrow's ladies!

Linda - I totally agree. The strange wrapping on my PC started a couple of days ago, but I have no idea why. Hopefully our web site managers will be able to correct it. It does seem to be only this thread.
Dani - awb tells me that you had hoped to be able to join us for lunch Saturday, sorry to miss you this time. But next time let's try to find a way to get closer so that you can come too! I would love to finally meet one of my Exchange City sisters!
Sam1991 (Kathie) - Whoppee! We will certainly add completed to your name. Congratulations!
Yvonne - What a hoot. I have to share those suggestions w/ my husband. Our foob warmers now have a possible name - Furry Fooby Flaps? Toasty TaTa Toppers? Tough choice. I bet we can make a fortune on them!
Laura - Thanks for asking. Actually I am feeling pretty optimistic about my new business. It may just work out! I haven't earned any money yet, but we have sold our first job! It is fun to be completely my own boss these days. And the dog lovers her noontime walks!
Annie - No news yet?!? It has to be good, right?
Psalmist - I am so so sorry about your dh. What a scare that must be! I will be thinking of both of you and send healing cyber vibes your way. Please take care!
So we still need to hear from firstmate and how her revision surgery went yesterday. And today we have two sisters boyzbeebs, Desny in for their exchanges - I will be thinking of them today!
And tomorrow we have two more sisters getting bouncey, beautiful foobs Lisasayers and Whippetmom (Deborah). Best wishes ladies! You will be beautiful for the weekend!
Whew - I think I am caught up. Have a wonderful day ladies. - Jean

BTW: I just ran a short test. It looks like only page 48 is wide, page 49 and the pages prior to page 48 are all normal on this thread. So it is only temporary. That's good.

I asked my ps why the foobs seem so much cooler than my body. He said they don't have as much blood supply.
The exchange list is getting so long we won't be able to type!!! hehe

Linda I will admit that's what I used to do (take notes with paper & pen) but now I bring up word perfect and type my notes as I read than when I get to the last comment I just copy and paste it which I have found works out well.
