Will be updating with pics and experience after surgery. Scheduled for 3/23/12. I'm 46 yrs old. 2 daughters in their 20's and 3 yr old grandson. I'm 5' weigh 130, 34 DD with lots of back and neck pain. I also have scoliosis with chronic low back pain. Hoping surgery will help with some of my issues. Excited and nervous.

2 days post op and feeling pretty good. Surgery went well but just had a bad reaction to anesthesia. I always get naseua and the gave me drugs to prevent it including emend but they did not work. The pain a naseua was terrible in the recovery room. Naseua continued until 9 pm, 12 hours. That was the worst of it. Stayed overnight and got the pain pump unhooked at 6:00 am. I was released at 3:00. Drive home was fine. I got settled in my moms room which was downstairs. Made it upstairs to my bed today. I used a step stool to get on the bed. That helped alot since I'm short and the bed is high. PS used glue for all my sutures except the belly button and drains. The drains hurt sometimes when i move a certain way. I am able to get around pretty good just need help getting in and out of bed. I saw my belly for the first time today. It looks amazing. I have not seen my breast yet but they are definitely alot smaller. We were going for a full B.

Took my first shower 2 days post op. Got my first view of the new breast. Wow they look amazing. Hubby likes them too. I was very tender around the breast area. I was careful not to rub too hard. Shower felt so good. Had the Hubby dry me off with the hair dryer on a low setting. Did the antibiotic ointment around my bellybutton and drains. All set. So far so good.

Hi st joseph1404. I was so nervous too. I'm 2 days post op and feeling pretty good. It is much less painful than my c-section and tubal. 1 day post op I was able to get up and pee without too much pain. I hope you do well. Once you see your tummy you'll feel so much better. Good luck.
