Feeling better

I'm 12 days post-op and it's amazing how much my boobs have changed comparing pics from week 1 to week 2. They are dropping more and taking shape but still very stiff and not squishy yet. Stopped my pain meds on day 8 and had my first night of sleep without waking up once with pain. I'm still experiencing a lot of tightness in my chest and swelling around the incision site. I called my PS today because I have a hard lump under each incision that is visibly raised. No pain just discomfort. I'm waiting to hear back from him. I'm also retaining a lot of water especially in my abdomen since the surgery. Not sure if this is common but it's so annoying to feel my skin jiggle every time I walk.

I'm not wearing a bra at all per doctor's orders since any type of compression even the stretchy sports bra was making the swelling worse. Just wearing pasties to cover my nipples. The pasties help with my nipple sensitivity which by the way has been so intense. Even just the touch of my shirt on my nipples is painful without some type of barrier. Band aids would probably work too.
Other than that just trying to be patient waiting for them to look and feel like real boobs. Right now they feel like two rocks on my chest.

Feeling depressed and upset

I seriously want to cry right now. I feel like my boobs look the same as they did before surgery. My husband says they look way different but when I look down I don't notice any difference except that they look swollen. I feel so distraught I don't know what to do. Has anyone else experienced this? Is this a normal part of the process? Wondering if anyone looked similar to me post op with good results 1-3 months post op. Do I just need to be patient? I need some reassurance.
