Well here I am a little over 3 months after surgery and I am still swelling like crazy. I've had multiple stitches come out along my incision line, and let me say that those freaking hurt. I hate all the swelling, but I'm not going to worry too much about that just yet..I have to keep telling myself to be patient! My boobs are doing pretty good, they change all the time and they are still sore. I still have soreness on my flanks from the lipo too. My tummy is still numb over the majority of it. I am still not doing any chest exercises and I go very light on the abs. So far I'm pretty happy, just can't wait for the swelling to subside, but in due time I know!

I had my 8 week check up yesterday and everything went great. Dr said everything looks really good, he even thought my toes and my ring were cute..hehe.
I'm all cleared for everything, there are no longer any restrictions. Although that happened at 6 weeks. I'm still taking it easy on my abs and I'm not doing any chest, I'm listening to my body and it says those aren't ready yet. I'll try to get some pictures posted soon, it's been awhile since I've taken any.
I went all day without my spanx, to work and to the gym. I haven't swollen nearly as bad as I thought that I would. I am still going to wear my binder to bed, I just like how it feels. I have finally been buying some clothes, and I must say, I really like the way I am fitting into clothes, it's so nice not having the excess stomach hanging out anymore.

You Look amazing!! I was wondering have both your breast dropped down? I had mine done 4 days ago and my left one is still way higher than the right. Also about how many cc's did you put in? I went with 550cc's hoping to be between a D and a DD but I think I will just fit into a D at VS.....btw Idont think from the pics your inner thighs need anything done they look nice!

Thank you! They have dropped a little, but they still have a long way to go. They look really good in bra's and bikini tops, but naked, they still need to drop alot. The doctor told me 15-17 weeks normally, but they can take up to 6 months to a year for them to get to where they are going to be. As far as the cc's I'm pretty sure the right one had 300 and the left one 350. The left one still has a lot of stretching to do, it was an entire cup size different from the right. So that one is higher and it sticks out more than the right one, so right now they still look like different sizes, but when I cup them both in my hands they seem like they are the same size, just shaped differently at this point. I'm pretty sure that I am a full D now.
Congrats on getting your's done! How are you feeling being 4 days post op? And thanks about the thighs!:) I hope that you heal up nice and fast! I'm sure your going to love the new you!!

I sure hope that it I don't drop anymore, I like where they are!! LOL. I have been told that it can take a long time for them to drop into place specially if one implant is larger thats more muscle that needs to relax. I also hear that the hand that it dominate, that muscle takes longer to allow for it to drop. It hasn't been that long so I am sure they will look as amazing when your naked as they do in the pics with your bikini top!!
Wow, you only had to put 300-350 into get into a full D...your lucky!
Being a few days out I feel pretty amazing. I think the first day and the first two nights were pretty uncomfortable. I couldn't sleep the first day which was horrible! I sleep on my side and the fact that I over did it the second day was probably the reason I couldn't sleep. The day after I drove to the store with my girls and went to get a new sports bra and ended up shopping for 3hrs. I was sooo sore when I drove home. My two year old had been really cranky and pushing her was hard on my boobs. I feel almost back to normal though!!
We look like some pretty hot moms!! Congrats and thats so much

Nice to hear from you! Glad your loving your boobies! Sorry to hear about the stitches coming out...that is crazy. I am 4 months out and still can't feel my tummy but I think I am getting use to it... So you are still swelling some huh? Sometimes I feel like I do but not sure. Are you back to a normal exercise routine? I just started ab exercises and it feels really weird!
