So many unanswered questions
Hi Ladies,
Last Monday I went for my 1st appointment with my doctor since the surgery. The other times I've just met with the nurse and she has changed bandages on my incisions and removed stitches but that is alll. I was pretty excited about the appointment since I had several questions and really needed some guidance. I drive 1 hour there and 1 hour home just to these SHORT appointments. When I got in I was very rushed.... He had several people he was working with at the same time, i guess. He asked to see my breasts and then gave each a good squeeze and rambled off a list of things... I had a rash around my nipples that I was putting hydrocortisone cream on and he told me it was a yeast infection and to start using vagasil and then if that didn't work he gave me a prescription. Next he told me he was prescribing this other stuff to help make my breasts softer. I've looked it up and it is used to treat asthma... I can't remember the name right this second but have seen that women use it for capsular contracture's. That kind of freaked me out. He just told me to take it... Didn't say he was worried about that or why specifically or anything.. He then runs out of the room to write prescriptions for those 2 items tells me to get dressed and i am finished.
I had to almost tackle him to ask a few questions that I had and then forgot 1/2 of them and got half- ass answers on the others.
1. Can I wear a REAL bra now? He tells me why would you want to? blah, blah, blah... I will tell you why I want to... Because I have a professional job where i don't want my nipples poking peoples eyes out. So they pretty much didn't answer that one. I went ahead and went to Victoria's Secret where i can happily announce i purchased 3- 34DD bra's! Are any of you girls 4 weeks post op wearing real bra's now or not???
2. Can I tan? He did answer that and said yes just not my boobs. Is anyone tanning that is at 4 weeks post op? I am dying to!!! I would love to go to the tanning bed and just lay a towel across the girls if I can.
3. Can I work out? This question I totally forgot to ask because he escaped so quick? Anyone working out yet? I know to obviously not work out chest or use my chest muscles at all. But what about running?
I've attached some updated pictures. They are feeling great and looking great (besides the rash that is going away). They are not really dropping a lot anymore. Maybe they will after i take this month's worth of asthma meds he gave me.
Hope everyone is healing and happy!!

Finally feeling like they are MINE
I am really getting used to by new assets. They are not hurting or bothering me hardly at all now. Now i am just ready to start working out and being able to tan.... I am the whitest person that lives in Florida right now!! I've been doing my massages with no pain whatsoever and am noticing that i am dropping and fluffing. I feel there are small variations between the two- one is a little higher, one is a little larger. Hoping that will all even out.
I am dying to wear a real bra and tired of the sports bras and no lift bra's. I've actually not been wearing a bra most of the time. Because i wore such padded bras before i am feeling like i am the same size- just all me and not padding anymore...
I took my last bandages off my nipples today and was surprised at how well they are healing. I've ordered some scar cream called Scar Guard and will start using that as soon as i get it. I've heard that it works very well!
I have the biggest pile of clothes to donate right now because they do fit anymore. Gives me an excuse to keep shopping!! Hope everyone is healing well!!

Out last night
So I had my first outing last night with my new ladies :) bought a new dress to show off the boobs and felt so hot!! I felt like I turned a few extra heads but most importantly I just felt like I had more confidence. I'm so happy with my results. I was questioning the size the other day and thinking I should've went bigger but after looking at my pictures from last night I realize I went just the right size!
