So I'm 6 weeks PO and still in love the girls. They look and feel exactly like I wanted. My husband says they feel completely real and can't believe he doesn't even feel any type of implant and trust me he he has tried LOL!! My incisions are healing great. I had a nurse friend of mine say she was surprised at how fast I heal cause they look great. So that's good news. My next Dr's appt is on the 22nd of Feb. to make sure my incisions are healing nicely I'm hoping he is going to tell me I don't have to tape anymore. I still get irritated if I wear it to long. My left breast is still bigger than the right but it's alot better than before. At least they both fit in the same size bra :) My PS said he couldn't fix it perfectly without the lift and I am completely okay with that. No lift scars for alittle bit of assymetry is worth it to me. I have experienced a little boob envy. Which is crazy cause I'm a DD now. But you know how the mind works we always want bigger and better. Ridiculous. As women we are so critical of ourselves. So I just look at my before and then afters and I that sets my mind straight. Thankful for how great they turned out. Hope everyone is healing good. New Pics posted

Welcome to the DD family. They look wonderful. The moderate profile really gives the babies a natural look. My bf says the same they feel and look so natural. I went and bought a new swimsuit yesterday and was amazed how great it looked. The bikini I bought in Italy, the size was like a 40 so it fits me nicely although I wear 36. So when I tried on XL swimsuit for a Vegas trip I was like damn summer is going to be "off da chain". Today I'm going to try a 36DDD bra to see how the girls fit. Congrats again and welcome to the D's club!!

Thanks it's a pretty great CLUB to belong too. :) Just bought a swimsuit from target and the XL just barely covered these babies. I'm ecstatic and couldn't be happier. Your Vegas trip ought to be alot of fun too. It just feels good to be able to where the clothes we want and fill them out in a womanly way. Hope you have fun in Vegas. Takes Pics of the girls why your there so we can see how great the look all dressed up.

I am 4 weeks PO and doing great. I had my appt with the PS this week and everything is looking good. I got out of the "TRAINING BRA" as my husband calls it.LOL ! I am now able to wear sports bras and the fancy bras on a limited basis but not all day because of incisons. I am loving my results. What I had envisioned in my mind is now what I see when i look in the mirror. Love it. Can excercise without alot of upper body stuff and not alot of bouncing of the breast mostly because of incision healing. PS doesn't want alot of pressure put on them. Love this site so much useful and reassuring info. When I have a question I come here and can always find someone who has the answer. Will keep updating as I progress. Don't stop posting girls it's what gets us thru the process. Posted new pics.

Looking good girl! It is amazing how ccs work on different people .. I went with 457 ccs and you look bigger than me. What is your final cup size? I just passed the 4 week mark too. ;) xoxo
January 27, 2013
Thanks I am in a VS 34dd but really fill them out. I'm pretty amazed at my size also. Very important to have a PS who knows what he is doing.

Congrats Suzie! Everyone heals differently. I am such a perfectionist and see imperfections in my boobs and it drives me crazy but I will wait until the 3 month mark before I do anything about what I see. ;) xoxoxo
January 27, 2013
I think you look fantastic. I think we get obsessive looking at all these boobies!! LOL!! Cause sometimes I think well the left is still alittle bigger than the right and it bothers me but then I go back and look at my before and think Nope I'm thrilled!! I think most of the time what we see no one else will. That purple bikini is HOT on you!!
January 27, 2013
Just looked at your pics and you look awesome!! The waiting part is the hardest!! But they really do get better everday!! And if your ever in doubt just go back and look at before pics that sets your mind straight again!! Happy healing to you.

Red1 you look marvelous. So natural is right on. The moderate profile is nice and gives you that lower fullness and beautiful cleavage. I have the same and 7 weeks out so happy. One minute they can be disguised with a comfy sweater or peeking out at you with a form fitting top. Congrats on your babies. I wish you many boobiful days.
January 27, 2013
Thanks so much and so do you!! Mod. Profiles are great!! You won't know I have big double DD's unless I want you to and that's fantastic. How are your incisions doing? My are still red and raised and it worries me. Hoping it's a time thing and I just need to be patient. Happy healing!

Incisions are all healed up nicely. Mine were on the top if my areola so they closed. How tall are you red1? I'm sure your hubby is loving the babies as well. My bf sure does.
January 28, 2013
I'm 5"3. Small framed. wt was 120 before surgery but since then I've been about 128. Hoping that changes soon. Not being able to work out and trying to take it easy sure sucks. But I'm back at it tomorrow with the cardio. I took another look at your pics and yeah I can't even see your incisions.. That's great. I hope mine heals up nice being fair skinned and a redhead goes against me alittle. But the PS said he would laser them if the redness lingers. So not to worried. I won't lie we made it 4 days before being intimate and have been pretty active since then. We were just real careful. Got released last week for most activity that did not put alot of strain on the incisions. So now my hubby really can't leave them alone. LOL!!! I have to say I love them as much as he does. It's been great!! He told me he loved them before but he was sorry he wasn't more supportive about me getting them years ago. LOL!! The whole surgery thing really scared him. But he sure won't doubt me in the future if I want other stuff done.

That wonderful. I'm glad things are good. I made it only two days but we were def careful. I had to keep telling myself slow down keep heart rate down, slow down, keep heart rate down. My bf was telling me too. We've always had an amazing sex life so after two days I was long overdue. After the six weeks I was like Yes!!!! No heart rate restraints!!! Lol

3 weeks post op today and I'm feeling and looking great. I love them more everyday. I am ready to start working out and getting my groove on. Hopefully at my next DR's appt he will clear me for more activity. I am alittle worried about my incisions. They are raised but not red I'm hoping they flatten out. I've read it both ways that it's normal and that I should start massaging them. I will wait to see what the Dr says. It's crazy how obsessed you become over every little thing. LOL but I guess we finally get them and we now want to take very good care of them. Anyone else with permanently hard Nipples? Any advice on the scars would be appreciated also. Posting a couple of updated photos.
Good Wishes For Good Healing

Wow looking great. I love the swimsuit and the bra. Very sexy. Looks like you got the Natrelle style 15 I think like me. I've been massaging more now and they are feeling softer every day. I will be following your progress.

Yes I love them. I'm a stickler for the cocoa butter all over too. Just helps your skin and gives it a glow. Helps with stretch marks and with the cold weather now you really need to keep skin moisturized.

They look GREAT!! Congratulations!! Super suprising he only used 360 and 385cc's!! Good to hear you didnt have any complications and havent been too sore!! Hope my surgery is like that :)

Looks great and extremely natural. I love when docs can produce natural looking results. I am extremely surprised on the size you had implanted. They look bigger, but just goes to show that every dress looks different on everybody ;) Happy healing!!
January 27, 2013
Thanks! I couldn't believe it either about the implanted cc's. I am so glad I had such a good PS cause I was thinking 450's and I would have been ridiculously huge. NOT at all what I would want. Love them just the way they are. I am a full DD. I can't wait to see you after. Keep us posted. Good luck!!
