RQ,
I don't have first-hand knowledge about breast augmentation, but I can say -as a smaller-chested woman- that I've felt like you do. Once I'd fully developed and realized I wasn't going to get any bigger in the chest (though I did go up a measly size when pregnant, woo hoo!
), I swore I'd get implants.
And then I realized that I'd be walking around with packets of silicone *inside* my body. Packets that could rupture. Seriously, just thinking about it squicks me out. Never, ever, ever.
One of my mom's good friends had breast cancer and had both of her breasts removed. The doctors reconstructed new breasts with her own fat from her stomach. I don't know much about it or if it's even available to women who just want larger breasts, but if it is, that's the way I'd go. My mother's friend said that when she ate a lot, her BREASTS got bigger because they were made from fat cells from her stomach. Anyway, just a thought. If this ever becomes available for everyone (and it might be, I've done no research), I'd be pretty tempted. But silicone? No freakin' way.
