Yes Def no peeking. Remember they keep forming and softening up as the weeks go on. I actually am starting to like how mine are forming now 6 Weeks later. So that Being said - if you like them now you will love them more as time goes on. ... keep us posted

Yay your on the other side... now just heal up quickly and enjoy your new perky boobies...

Congrats!! Can't wait to hear how you are doing!

Best of luck to you! It's going to be fine!!! I wish my surgery was today!! Lucky girl ;) hope you are feeling well!

Hope everything is going well for you today!

Hi Sharon, I am scheduled for my BA at 2PM today. So it looks like we're bosom buddies! It's interesting that I've received some of the same negative responses from my family and some friends as well. I traveled to Miami to have this procedure done, and my "best friend" who originally planned to go with me, backed out at the last minute. Less than a week before departure. Ah well. I'm not sure if I missed it in your post, but did you decide where the incision site will be?

On top of these suggestions I have also heard bendy straws are helpful. I can see why then you don't have to sit up to drink.

Good luck Sharon. I'm 5 weeks post op lift and augmentation 500cc silicone and I'm in love with them. Good luck. I Just needed lots of pillows to prop myself up, my pain meds, liquids and my ipad... You will do great I best of luck. ..

Hey there Sharon.....there are a few things you should have before hand and preparations in your home before your BA. If you type in " things I need before my breast augmentation" on this site in the search window....various blogs from others will come up. I purchased some extra pillows, had arnica for swelling and Bromelain for bruising which you can get at any whole foods store or order online. Your doctor may give you some or tell you where you can get some. I purchased alcohol and also scarguard for my incisions and some alcohol and cotton wipes so I could clean the area as needed once the strips came off. You will need to make sure you have your meds in a bag or a pill container because you will not be able to open up your med tops...and have them by your bed so you can easily reach them. If you have a recliner, you will most likely feel more comfy sleeping there instead of propped up in your bed. I didnt realize that until the 4th day and boy did the recliner make a difference. You wil also need frozen peas that you can use for the swelling on your babies....i didnt really do it as much in the beginning but I was not in much pain. I did it to help with the morning boob. Umm let me think... its been almost 4 months since my BA...Oh yes have something to read or occupy your time when youre not sleeping ...books, whatever right next to the bed. Hopefully you will have some help. And get your home in order, try and clean up as much as possibel beforehand because you wont have the strength to do it after. You will need your rest....sleep as much as you can...and take your meds on time and you will be just fine. If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact me. Oh yeah on the way home... you might want to hold your babies...the bumps in the road will be annoying. So I just placed my arms around my babies so any bumps would not make them move too much.. So excited for you and cant wait to see your results. Youre gonna look fabulous!!!!!
