Three weeks update

Here are some pictures from tonight. I feel fine most of the time except when I forget I have limitations and pick up something without thinking... I feel it like five minutes later. Now that I'm not afraid to touch my incisions with the silicone gel covers, I feel these little tight strings under the skin. They are sore. I read on real self that those are likely something called mondors disease. It's not a disease and seems harmless. I guess it swelling of veins after surgery but goes away on its own with time. I had quite the panic about it but real self forums came to the rescue. Bruising is gone. The right breast is really starting to soften and drop. The left one is not having it. Seems like my muscle is holding on tight to that one.I'm right handed but maybe I have been using the left more and massaging the right more. Not sure. Righty is starting to feel really nice tho. Still not in its pocket tho and there is this groove look on the bottom that I don't like. I try to massage them down but it doesn't feel like it's don anything anymore. The table massage does seem like it works but I can only do those in the evening at home. Tried at work and almost got caught. I might have actually been caught but I'm sure that guy just wanted to pretend he never saw a thing and I'm not a big weirdo. The measuring tape is reassuring. It really shows the change in upper pole and the swelling from my chest. I still wear the strap at night but I think I have overused it to wear I will probably have to wrap it around twice to feel the hold. I did go out to find a new sports bra and couldn't fit in a 34d but not sure how accurate that was. Didn't buy one tho. What else... they look big only in pictures and when naled. Other than that, no one has noticed and I can wear my regular clothes. None of my clothes really show off cleavage so that could be why. I'm not ashamed that I got them done tho. I look at them and touch them all the time and think yessssssss they're still there. It's such an amazing feeling. Next doc appt will be at 6 week post but I am going to try to post every week on a Wednesday. I notice a lot of people progress at the 4 week mark so fingers crossed. They are super pointy right now so hopefully they round out. I'm happy with the size even without the swelling. My partner said I would have been safe with 500 cc but I don't have any boob envy.. at least for right now?

More 2 weeks pictures just because. .

Having a little fun/OCD with them. Decided to take pictures of my measurements to really track how they are moving if that's possible. Currently my ribs are 32 inches around, although I wear 34 bras. And the new Boobs are at 37.5 inches around the nipple. Last week they were 38 inches so some reduction in the swelling. I wonder if I measured them in the morning when I had bad morning boob to the evenings if there would have been a difference.

2 weeks post op.. finally saw the incisions! !

Saw dr. Hardesty today for my 2 week post op. He removed the tape from surgery and showed me my incisions. So clean looking. He then added brownish tape and said I can start the scar treatment. I have the new gel silicone scar patches that I am going to use in the morning. He went over the massages again so I can bring them down. I don't have to wear the strap all day, just at bed and around the house. Although I hate it and it gives me what feels like an Indian burn on my back fat, I'll do whatever it takes for them to drop. My Boobs look so pointy from the sides. I hope they really round out or I won't feel better off than where I started. They haven't softened so I know I just need to have patience. It's just so hard. I also got doc ok to go to Disneyland this weekend. He didn't seem too concerned about it so that's a relief. I should have asked about drinking cuz work has been kicking my butt lately. Taking a few days off cost me more than the surgery. So much stuff to do. That's all for now..

I would recommend my family and friends. I really liked the free underarm laser. Best results I have ever had with that. Will go back again for more services.
