Telling your mum

How did you tell your family/mum?
I don’t know how mind will react!

My mum is really supportive, she’s helping in every way possible she knows how much it means too me but she’s known i’ve always wanted one (I’m 20). My brother is coming nearly 300 miles to help look after my two daughters for 2 weeks (op is in 5/6 weeks) and my other brother and 3 sisters are all supportive. everyone in my family knows apart from my dad which I plan to tell when we’re alone together , I’m just gonna come straight out with it. if he doesn’t like it tough look.. my money and my body! If anything i’m mostly worried about when those people you hardly know realize or are told, like those people you see on a daily basis ect… I know a lot of people at uni but haven’t told them, they will probs be like wtf lol… I’d tell those people that are important, it’s a massive thing and if they know how much it means to you i’m sure they will be really supportive. if it wasn’t for my mum i couldn’t get there and back from the hospital and it’s nice knowing she approves.. good luck hun xx

Thats so nice everyones really supportive!
I wish my mum would be! Whenever i’ve tried to bring it up she like puts a block on the convo and says not to mess with nature etc.
how are you paying for it if you don’t mind me asking?

I plan on telling her at a spa day which will probs be a few days before the op! aha yeah I’m not telling anyone apart from my mum and boyfriend. If my brother and dad find out then thats cool but apart from that then no -one.

what size were you/you going for? thanks 🙂

Just keep bringing it up, so she gets used to the idea, and tell her the reasons your going too. if she keeps ignoring it maybe be adamant you have to discuss it cause it’s important she understands your reasons behind it and that she comes round to the idea? and also how it’s important you have her support? and maybe suggest her coming to appointments so she knows you are going with a good company? just a few suggestions that may help?
I’ve paid my deposit 3 weeks ago and paying the rest in full in late April 🙂 i’m booked for 13th may, have my pre-op on 15th April… when are you booked in?
I’m a 32B & at surgeon consultation chose 510CC but gonna discuss everything proper with him again at pre-op. I’m hoping i can get overs! 😀
what are you/ are you getting and whats your stats? xx

My mum was likes yours at first, she would change the subject every time I talked about it and didn’t ask about it until I just said im having the op on 9th April since then she’s being asking about it and cant wait to take me shopping 🙂 x

Yeah thats a good idea! Im gonna maybe write her a letter then she has to read it? oh thats cool! I have my consultation monday and hoping to book in end of may!
I’m like a 32AAA / 34A and I’m 5ft 9.5 and 8 stone 5

what surgeon did you have?
i think I’m gonna be offered unders as there is basically nothing on me boob wise. and definitely round as tear drops won’t do much i don’t think.
oh thats good! how old are you alex?

im 21. id love my mum to take me shopping for it and get excited about it! but i doubt thats gonna happen!

My mam, step dad and sister are all really supportive:) as for my other sister and auntie, they’ve hardly said a word, but I don’t care its my body and not theres!!

Im 27 Lizzie so she couldn’t of said much anyway when Im a married woman with 2 kids!
Im sure they are just worrying about us but it will make me so much happier and ive alway wanted it done as ive never had boobs except from when ive been pregnant! Lol im getting 440cc from 32a im 9st and 5ft 5 x

yeah good point Laura!

Alex, thanks for your response! True, see I’m only 21 and still a student..
Just want her to approve and come with me!
who are you having?
you having it done in brum?

No problem 🙂 im sure she will come round to the idea in the end even if she doesn’t agree with it im sure she will support you, can you not ask her to go to the consultation with you?
Well to be honest im going elsewhere but I find this forum really helpful for advice so ive hijacked it!! Lol x

mhm I’m hoping so! i don’t plan on telling her till a couple days before the op is booked as thats the only time we’re gonna have time alone together and i cant imagine telling her over the phone is the best option..
where are you going? what made you go with that company?

Still not told my family yet and had them done a week :-s too nervous!!! Xx

haha really? how old are you? how did you pay for it? have you got pics up?

I text my mum, all she said was “Wow very good i’ll come with you xxxxxxxx” :’) expecting a major blow-out! X

OH WOW. id love that!

I’m 19 and my family have known its something i’ve wanted for years, when i got a date for surgery I asked for permission and my parents said yes without hesitation (unexpected reaction). They both took me to the hospital and have been so helpful and supportive, I especially didn’t expect it of my dad.
Just tell them and let them know how important it is, i’m sure they will be the same 🙂 xx

i hope so! have no idea though :/

Im going with hospital group. I know 2 people that have had surgery with my surgeon and felt at ease with him and wasn’t pressured into going with them x
