Hi all! So it's been 6 weeks now with the girls and I absolutely love them. I've been to my PO appt and all is well except from some assymetry which was already present prior to the surgery and was expected. Had to start doing carpet squashes per my PS and was worried about lying on a floor on my chest at first but it has been fine. I actually feel better after doing them as it keeps the capsule open and to me makes them feel softer. Ive started weight watchers to get the 15 lbs ive gained the past year off and i feel great! It's still freezing cold in SC so I'm wishing for some warmer weather to get these babies in some cute clothes.

They look so, so good!!!! Very natural! :)

You look great! My PS still just has me squishing them together several times day. I have some asymmetry too, but like you, I had it before. I already started buying cute bikini tops and finally bought a push up bra. Wow, that makes a big difference!

I know! I just left VS. my PS said regular bras are ok now but no wires yet. They do make cute ones without wires too!

Do you know way size you're measuring now? You look great!

It depends on the bra. I can do VS 34d or 36c. I have put on a 36b and it fit and even a 36d. But most I have tried are 36c and 34d. :) very happy and really glad I didn't go bigger.

Tomorrow will make Three weeks. I am loving them and rarely having any pain now. So happy that my sensations are back since I have a nipple incision. I still have the Steri-Strips on per doctors orders he wants them to stay home until late fall off Or until my next check up. Feeling a little bit of boob greed but I know he couldn't really go any bigger because I had no extra tissue or skin. But I am definitely happy with what I have now. Good luck to all of you ladies out there with your booby days coming up.

I'm glad u are feeling better. It has been 8 weeks post-op my BA and Im just now able to sleep on my side. As being a nurse also, please don't push, pull, or lift too soon. You may not realize it, but we use our pecs muscle doing those nursing duties. My PS told me no more than 10 lbs for 6-8 weeks.

I know. Who knew spiking a bag of fluid could make me hurt like that. I do try to get help with pushing pulling etc. I feel bad still telling my 3 yr old I can't pick her up because I hurt my back. But I have a thick lil girl and she is 50+ lbs. :) shaped just like me.

So last night I was able to sleep on my side the entire night. Went from one side to the other without any problems. Started back walking again today and feel great. Today was the first day they really felt part of me and not foreign. I had been having pains bending and turning. None today. They feel real, and normal to me. Loving them. They are softer and def have dropped. Will upload pics.

Yay!!! I'm only able to side sleep for short periods of time. I have been walking for about a week and start with light weights today. I wouldn't say they feel normal yet. Glad to hear you are healing so well.
