WORTH IT$5,470
So I am about 2 1/2 weeks post op now. Healing has been going great! My girls are starting to settle and soften up and I am getting much more comfortable with them! However, my left breast seems to get this nerve pain I believe it is, or at least thats what it feels like.....like around the nipple area and it only seems to hurt when I walk at a fast pace. This is my only means of exercising right now so I dont want to STOP lol just curious if anyone else has felt this??? Could is be a nerve being pressed on from the implant? Im not bruising or inflaming at all so im not worried about having a hematoma.

Well tomorrow I will be 2 weeks post op. I went for my post op appointment on Sat and had my stitches removed. They also told me I will have to start massaging, and its not very comfortable doing lol but wow within the first 2 days my breasts have softened up alot and dropped some. They feel MUCH better!!! I feel like I am almost back to 100% :) Im still a little sore under my armpits where I had my incisions and my breasts feel slightly tender but other than that, im feeling great! I got myself to buy a new bikini and wear it for a couple hours at the beach. I know thats a NO NO since im only 2 weeks post op but they felt supported nonetheless. I was instructed to not wear underwire for 6 months but I have to stay in this ridiculous granny looking surgical bra for another 4 weeks lol. I am so happy with my results as days pass. Last week I had the boobie blues and was starting to wish I didnt go through with the surgery, then I was thinking I went too big and all sorts of negativity was flowing out of me.....however...it has passed, as I read it will. Now that they are starting to settle and soften up, I think I chose the PERFECT size for my frame and goals. I was terrified they would be too big and in the way when I exercised. But I put on an actual sports bra yesterday, a compression one and I was just SO pleased as how they felt in it, looked in it and I threw on my gym clothes and got super excited that they ARENT as big as I thought, and thats what I wanted lol.

I will show you me after my surgery, I just hope I look as good as you!!! I am a little concerned about my Lyme disease and the boobs though! I keep reading the whole no active infection stuff and I freak!!! If you and anybody who reads this could send me blessings and stuff through may til my surgery that would be great!!! I am a little scared how my body is going to react! But, again I am so happy for you!!! Sorry to go off on a tangent! Lol

Aw your so sweet thank you so much :) Oh wow I do send prayers your way hun, im sure thats a bit scary, does the Lyme disease weaken your immune system or something? How can if affect your implants and or surgery?

Awe thanks girl, that helps a bunch!!! Yeah it weakens it so I guess when they put them in me in particular my body is going totally go into attack mode and get sick from fighting to much and from the inflammation and trauma of the surgery! I just hope that my body doesn't react as bad as we are all thinking it will lol!!! But thank you babe... In may, if the Lyme doc says it is okay I am gonna need all the prayers I can get lol!!! Not to get to serious! ( ;

Okey doke!!! I will tell my doc that cause I am doing saline too, and I love yours!!!! I am ordering at least my bikini bottoms and my button up nightie tonight from vs! Yay! It is real hard for me to find a good bottom cause I got a big o booty lol, and I saw at the actual store the one I had wanted just not the color, and well obviously the button up nightie for the ease of getting it on w help after surgery! Then I am going to order the matching triangle top! You got me more excited about swimmy suits, yahoo! Is it okay if I show my doc your pic?

So today I am 1 week post op. Tell ya the truth I REALLY thought Id be feeling 90% by now lol but still at about 70% Guess thats not bad anyway. I know we all heal at our own paces. I went submuscular and through the armpit so moving certain ways still sends a sharp shooting pain underneath my left breast and I cant fully extend my arms straight up yet, but getting there. I have stopped my pain meds 2 days ago and not taking anything besides my antibiotics. I had my fold lowered as I have read many women on here will be doing or has done....and it looks as if I might have that "double bubble" under my right breast. Now, its almost not even noticeable but I kind of see it when I turn to the side. I wont let it really bother me since the only person really seeing my bobos bare is me and my fiance and man oh man is he more than happy with them, and that makes me feel good :) However im scared that once they drop more into place that the "double bubble" might be more noticeable??? Well I have a question. have any of you ladies heard of Arnica??? Its supposed to be for brusing and inflammating and or skin irritation stuff like that. I dont need it for my breasts, but I had lipo and want to use it on my belly....but I dont know if I should rub it on my belly and just place my compression garment over and get it all over my garment? And there a difference in the gel and the oral solution? Ill be posting new pics soon. I just havnt really had the chance to try anything on since ive been so sore from BOTH procedures. But im dying to see what they look like in a sexy bra and bikini already ahhhhhh. Ive been in nothing but surgical bras and loose ugly shirts. lol

Maybe you could use a heating pad for your back pain. I get minor back pain when I'm standing or doing something for a long period of time and the heating pad always helps. My back isnt quite used to my new boobs yet :)

The boobs look great! What did your PS tell you about working out and lifting? I'm a workout freak and I'm getting mine done 4-5-13. My PS said I can no longer do push-ups, flies and bench press (which is fine with me) otherwise after 6 weeks I can go back to lifting depending on how I feel

March 12, 2013
Same thing. I have to wait 6 weeks to do any kind.of weights but no more.chest workouts....which ill also be fine with ;) I'm moreof an.ab and.leg girl anyway lol

I used arnica pills and gel for my boobs. I just let it air dry after I rub it on. I then rub emu oil on to help with stretch marks. I love taking the bra and strap off, lol... The gel feels awesome after keeping the girls all couped up. Favorite part of the day! I'd imagine that your tummy would be the same. Just stay away from the incisions.

March 13, 2013
Did those seem to work for you? I just bought the gel....I applied a thin layer, let it dry for 2 minutes then put my wrap back on, im also taking Bromelain.

bromelain is for the swelling...arnica is for bruising....i had lipo too and u have to wear the garment to keep swealling down....but dont worry about that....with lipo is. looong process you will continue to see results month after month... I only had one problem....i didnt maintain a healthy diet and now my weight gain has gone into my arms...so stay healthy! am now getting back to a healthier diet and working out hard at the gym for my new BA!!!

Has your never pain subsided a bit? I remember holding my breasts going down stairs for several months post op due to nerve pain.
