Day 3
Ive been resting a lot so ill tell you a little about my surgery day.
Day of surgery: I woke up and cleansed with my clorhexidine wipes than began my hour drive. When I got there I met my nurse and changed into a gown and paper panties. She gave me some meds and took a few before pictures then my doctor came in and drew all over me. I then walked into the OR and laid down as they strapped me down and inserted my IV. I talked a little with my CRNA and then the next thing I knew I was in a wheelchair with my mom being taken to the car. It all happened really fast and at first it felt rushed but I was grateful to be home when the anesthesia started wearing off. I kept up a constant rotation of advil and tylenol and although it was extremely uncomfortable all day I never felt much pain until 2am when I took my first pain med.
Day 1: I woke up and couldn't sit up on my own. I took some advil then got up and got in the car to go to my first post op. My doctor took off the tape on my nipples and covered it with gauze and said everything looked fine! I went home and slept the rest of the day then took another pain med before bed that night.
Day 2: Things got a lot easier this day. I can sit up, use the bathroom, shower all on my own now with no pain. I still walked around holding my boobs as if they will fall out because they're SO heavy but no pain!!
Day 3: Still holding my boobs but I think I'm actually going to venture out of the house for the first time. Will probably go walk around the mall. Took advil early this morning but nothing since and i don't really feel like I need anything. Changing my dressings is rough because theres nothing covering my nipples and they don't look pleasant. I haven't even taken pics because i hate looking at my nips lol but my boobs look fantastic!

Three days away!!
Okay so I had my pre op on Wednesday and showed him my wish boob pictures. I asked him if it was even realistic with the tube boobs I'm starting with and he said that I can expect similar results which honestly anything would be better than what i have now. He is thinking 325cc & 350cc because I have a little asymmetry. Im getting textured anatomical shaped implants over the muscle and a lift as well. Ive been shopping around for a few zip up/button up tops and picked up all of my prescriptions today. Luckily I have my mom who is really supportive and will mostly be taking care of me. I'm not new to surgery (car accidents, appendicitis, etc.) so I'm not too worried about the pain, I just know Im going to get so restless that first week just sitting around most of the time. Ive made my friends promise to hang out with me though and I've got a few movies I've been wanting to see. I can't believe by the end of the week ill have boobs!
My boobs have also been my biggest insecurity. I...
My boobs have also been my biggest insecurity. I never thought they were cute but it wasn't until I read an article about tuberous breasts in cosmo that I realized I had an actual deformity. I brought it up to my obgyn and she agreed, I had tuberous breast deformity. This caused a lot of grief and anxiety for me and I was upset for a long time about it. I decided to start saving up to get it fixed.
Fast forward to today I've saved,, had my consultation, and scheduled my surgery for August 13! My surgeon has experience with my kind of boobs and he and his staff were so friendly and welcoming! We talked about shaped cohesive gel implants above the muscle with a periareolar lift (which will make my nipples smaller!!!). I don't want anything too big or obnoxious, I just want boobs that are finally shaped like boobs! I wear a 36 B right now but have never really been able to fill it out. Im hoping for a full C or a small D but nothing bigger than that. I'm pretty tall and have wide set shoulders so I think that shouldn't look too unnatural.
I go to my pre op appointment on Wednesday and I can't wait to show him my wish boobs and see what he says! 12 days left!!!
