Did your nipples move up as your breast settled, or stay the same?

You do look like me. I am 6 weeks post op and the swelling did go down some. Yesterday I was swollen again due to traveling all day. I can still feel it today and see it. Wonder what does her them so upset about car rides and flight that they swelling again. Your swelling will go down quite a bit more. Mine did the biggest jump between 5-6 weeks if it comes to swelling. I will just to hang in there some more. Good luck
February 23, 2014
Ok, Thanks!

When I'm driving I use a small blanket across my chest / seat belt to help with the tenderness in my breast. I try to go slow over bumps in the road or avoid them all together to ease the discomfort. I haven't been doing anything other than work, maybe go to the store or a restaurant to eat then back home. I'm still trying to take it very easy!

Thanks! But if u ask me they are too perky and firm! Lol!
February 17, 2014
They will soften and drop a bit in the next few weeks. That is when they start feeling/looking a bit more natural.

The first week it is like you are wearing a push-up bra, without wearing any bra - I was sort of disappointed when mine softened and dropped some :) You look fantastic. Good luck with your recovery :)
February 17, 2014
Thanks, same to you. How Long did it take for yours to drop?
User Avatar
February 18, 2014
Well, I am only at 4 1/2 weeks, so I assume they haven't finished dropping, but I would say that around 2 weeks there was a noticeable difference from the height they had immediately post-op.
