1 month post op!

WORTH IT$10,000
Hey ladies,
I am currently one month post op and I already feel like they are apart of me. I have returned to all normal activities like running, working out, lifting, etc. (I am still not doing pull ups as that just scares me).
They still sit quite high but I see changes every once in a while. Can't wait for them to be lower. They definitely feel A LOT softer and more natural now.
I still sleep with lots of pillows and can wake up with a bit of morning boob every now and again.
My scars seem to be healing great but I haven't noticed any significant changes since the last update.
Overall, I'm very happy! So worth it!!!

Thanks for the update. You look great! seriously! I can't believe how much you can squeeze them now! I'm a few days behind you, and I sure can't do that yet. I hope I'm healing okay. I can move them, but not alot. You look great in your new bikini too!

Thanks!!! You look pretty great yourself :) they have gotten really soft in the last week or so. Coincidentally that is when I started back at the gym and working out my upper body again. Not sure if it is related. Thanks for the support! Shopping is much more fun now :)

oops, i am a dummy. ;) i see you started using the scar strips a little bit ago!!! pleeeeeeeeese keep us posted on how they work!!!
May 29, 2013
Thanks, yeah I've been using them for about 3 weeks or so. They have been working well. I feel like I am healing well but it's hard because I don't have any comparison. I go for my 6 week post op appointment next week so I guess I have to wait until my PS tells me how they are doing :)

Finally have a big girl bra!!!!

ExcitedForNewMe
Hey ladies, just a quick note to say I finally decided to break down and buy my very first real big girl bra! It was again a toss up between a 32D or a 32DD. I went with a 32D because I felt more support although the sales women tried to talk me into the 32DD because she said it fit better. I'm happy with the bra! I don't feel like a 32D but until the settle down, that's where I am. I was hoping for a full C and I think that will happen once these babies drop fully. Overall I LOVE them! They are so much fun to have and I do not regret it for one moment! Hope everyone has an amazing weekend :)

You look great! A side not about the bra...you mentioned you want to be a C and not the D that you're measuring right now. Did you happen to be measured at Victoria Secret? If so, they do "vanity sizing," and their bras run 1 size small. If you were measured there, you likely are a true C. Regardless of your cup size, you look picked the perfect implant size to compliment your body :-)

Oh and I forgot to mention...go to a site called A sophisticated pair. The bra size calculator on that site is supposed to be the newest and best way to measure. Often, your band size should be smaller than what you're wearing and your cup size larger to give proper support. Your measurements will likely change over the next couple of months as you continue to drop, but it's a fun little tool to use!

You look great! I also went shopping for a new bra. Its strange to look for one that doesn't have any padding or push up.....:) I wanted just a lace bra, I was looking at them wondering if I would still be a small, or maybe a medium. the Lady came over, she said to try a large!! What! me a large???? wow. I figure I'm a 36C, but she was right, the large fit comfortably. Th medium fit, but it was snug. I still feel like I need some give....ahhh bra shopping, such an adventure.

I'm almost three weeks post and feeling wonderful....

I'm almost three weeks post and feeling wonderful. I've been pretty active without any direct upper body work outs and everything seems to be healing nicely. I've been using my scar strips at night and scar cream 4-5 times a day. Still having a difficult time sleeping comfortably because I am typically a stomach sleeper but I'm getting used to the new position. I love them! They are perfect and it was worth it :D I still have some dropping to do but overall I'm happy with where things are so far!

Hi,, I'm so glad you are feeling better! Getting that infection must have been aweful for you. I'm curious about the silicone scar strips you mentioned and cream. I have to take my steri strips off today, but I don't have any other strips. Where do you get that? I wonder why my ps didn't suggest that also for me...? Anyway, you look great and Im glad you are happy! I am gradually feeling better about my new look. I will be happy when they soften up and I can wear a real bra. It would be so nice to sleep a whole night too......:) take care!

I would ask your doctor if he carries any scar treatment, I'm not sure where else you would buy them except online. My doctor told me that simple scar treatments from a drug store are not strong enough to really help heal surgical scars. The strips I bought were $30 each and the cream was $40. But the research I've done on scars, I seem to be ahead of the typical healing so I have to just assume that's because of the strips and cream. I've seen a huge change since I started using them and each scar has shrunk about a quarter inch so far. They are not sore, puffy, red either. Even the scar tissue under neath the skin from the sutures is much softer. I definitely recommend it for sure!

you look awesome!! they really compliment you. ummm, thanks A LOT....now i am wondering about the gummy bears!!! lol!! ;) i was soooo sure i wanted round!! hmmmmmm......

Thank you! You will love them no matter which ones you get! Just listen to your doctor. My doctor chose mine because I was sooo tiny up top with little to no breast tissue. It is pretty amazing to go through this process :) I wish you lots of luck!!!
