Keeping it private

Hi guys
My surgery isn’t until August time between then and now it has always been private and hopefully will continue to be as I’ve only told people who really needed to know, my parents know, boss (because I had to give a reason that I won’t be able to lift when back at work), two girls from work whom one has actually had a BA – but doesn’t care who knows (upto her, not judging anyone who tells the world either, FYI) and the other is a trusting friend who I wanted to confide in and can trust.
My head is just running away with it self that people will notice and find out and I really don’t want it to be common knowledge.
I’m probably overthinking and panicking. I don’t tell anyone, as it’s something that means a lot to me so why am I worrying?
Anyone else gone through these emotional stages?

I have stopped talking about it really to the people who know such as my parents and friend just to die it down a little bit.
My sisters don’t know but have always known that I wanted one, it’s kind of taking the excitement out of it because I’m worrying so much about it circling to other people.
Sending myself crazy – sorry to rant on

Hi skye, i understand EXACTLY what your going through. I got my boobs done yesterday and my parents and siblings didnt knowg anything about it! I definitely will tell them soon, just didnt wanna tell them before because i knew they wouldnt approve and would kick up such a fuss. Just told my friends and cousin about it and my friends came with me to the surgery and staying at my friends house while i recover. The truth is everyone would notice eventually so we’re gonna have to tell people sooner or later and be more open about it.

Hey, I struggled to tell my parents but they’re really supportive so I’m lucky. I personally don’t have a problem with people knowing now, at first I didn’t want anyone to know cos I didn’t wanna be judged as they thought they wouldn’t understand the reasons why I’m getting it done. My op is in 2 weeks and a lot of people know now lol and if I’m honest I’m so excited that I don’t care who know so cos I just can’t stop talking about it! Haha!
I wouldn’t worry if you don’t want to tell people, it’s your decision at the end of the day, and if they ask after it’s okay to admit it.
My advice would be tell who you want and enjoy the process 🙂 xxx

Thank you so much guys!
I thought other people must think the same as well or go through similar stages. My partner is coming with me to my surgery and is going to be there to look after me which I am glad about.
Im not ashamed to have it done at all. I can’t wait, I’m so excited and speak about it a lot to my partner.
It’s nice to have this forum cause we all have something in common and we all know what the journey is like, but people outside do not really.
My parents are really supportive, it’s just my privacy that it important to me 🙂
Thank you girls for reassuring me xxxx

Davies – I hope your healing well so far ???? Which hospital did you go to? Surgeon? My surgery is 15th August with Dr Andrea, so excited.
Almost can’t believe it’s happening though, it’s really surreal.

Jess – I bet you are so excited, wish mine was earlier but I’m sure it will come round quick 🙂
What CC’s are you going, profile, under or overs?
I’m either 275cc or 285cc High profile or Ultra haven’t decided yet still need to speak to my surgeon about these possibilities when I see him before my op!
My whole process has been since last year in summer, as I went without having a penny and have been saving up ever since so I have to have a clarification appointment before my preop xxxx

It’s a big operation really isn’t it, so theres no wonder you are sore in some places but I hope it eases soon for you. I can imagine you just wanting to enjoy them straight away, I know I will be ha!
I’m supposed to get partials too, how weird that he put them under instead. Let me know what he says 🙂
Yes I have another consultation just to clarify whats happening on the day and to ensure me and my surgeon are on the same page, I have that on the 10th April. My pre-op is still to be scheduled but is going to be the first week in July I’ve been told.
Seems ages away yet but like you say it should fly.
I saved up the money which I actually enjoyed weirdly for a girl ha! XX

Jess – I get nervous thinking about when I’ll actually go under and be having it done but I’m sure I’ll count down to 10 and I’ll wake up and be fine! Hahaha x

Hey i have told a few close friends/ work girls we are very close at work 1 because i was too excited and i am a bridesmaid for one of them so no dress shopping for a while she is fine and said we shall look after Christmas. I told them the day our other friend said she was pregnant. Happy day all round. I also told my 2 managers and they screamed with excitement. I wanted to know about taking time off at short notice and they they will have 2 staff who can’t lift :/ they are fine with it. My partner knows but i have not told my family its been a hard couple of years and i have had ops for medical reasons so dont want to worry them, its hard as i tell my auntie everything shes like a sister really. Its your businesses no one elses i refuse to tell the supervisor as we don’t get on she will find out after along with thw Dr’s i work with :/

Hi Louise, yes I know what you are saying sometimes you are so excited and you want to tell people but then I stop myself because I think if I don’t get the reaction I want from them I can’t take away the fact that I have just told them!
For instance my partners mum had one, I would like to tell her but sometimes she seems indifferent so that disappoints me as I think it would be a good bonding thing but oh well ha!
When are you having your surgery? What cc’s are you going and surgeon? X

I told my parents when I decided to go for it, they weren’t happy but have supported my decision and I told my close friends too, I know what you mean by the circling as it does happen no matter what eg friends telling their sisters/family overhearing conversations etc I got a little annoyed about this but in the end I’m not bothered.
I was leaving it to tell my 3 much older brothers as I thought I’d be shouted at so much but they all came home 9dpo for the entire weekend with their girlfriends and I had to tell them or I would’ve been pushed about and thrown upside down within the first 5mins of them being home lol so to protect my new boobs I told them but they all found it hilarious and joke about it a lot calling me Tits McGee and Michael booblé ! However if they hadn’t been around so early in the recovery process I think they may have never known (i only got 275)
You get worked up in your head about people’s reactions to it but most of the time it’s not half as bad as you’d imagine 🙂
And my mum does like them now I’ve had it done she says they suit me so much better than my old ones- you say you’re getting a boob job and everyone instantly thinks Katie price huge fake balls on your chest! X

Totally up to u, I told the world and his wife! But to be honest if I didn’t they prob wouldn’t have noticed unless I got them out. I wore big padded bras constantly so difference wasn’t massive

Thank you so much girls.
Made me feel more relaxed about it 🙂
Livvy you are so right! They never think you might have actual insecurities about it or anything just the Katie Price reference ha!
I’m sure everything will be fine really, I’m just so excited xx

I didn’t tell my Mum, Dad, brother, majority of friends and 6 weeks on they don’t know. Nor do more than a couple of close work friends/my best mate, boyfriend and sister. I had 425ccs but always wore padded bras so it’s hardly noticeable in clothes. I don’t really see the need to tell people if you don’t want to. I did it for me not anyone else so I don’t see that it really concerns anyone else xx
