Healing well
I'm healing well, trying to take pictures evenly but it's hard. Mainly due to my scoliosis but I am so happy with them. People talk about boob greed but I'm happy I trusted my surgeon with the slight lift and 339ccs silicone. They are already softening up. My breasts were harder from BFing. They are perfect and finally some of my bloat is going away. I looked seven months pregnant after surgery. Not sure if it was air from anesthesia or what. But glad it is over!!
Past few days a blur. But quick update.
Honestly don't remember Wednesday. Took my first shower last night and had lots of help thank god. The Vicodin doesn't do anything, it was the Valium that helped. When I took the gauze off the right side where I got the periareolar lift there wAs like a blood clot. Threw it out, wiped things up, now just relaxing. Will post pics in a little bit. So far so good. No wide gaps or anything.
So it's finally done!
Went in this morning at 6:30 AM and was scheduled for 8. Everyone was extremely nice. Got my gown on, was given a robe , talked to the anesthesiologist, got my iv, etc. then Dr. Bucky came in around 8. He marked me up and he was with one of his residents. They discussed a few things to do with the scar on my chest from the car accident in about 6-12 months when everything heals. Afterwards the nurse anesthetist walked me in the OR and set me up, gave me some relaxing meds, then put a mask on me and before I knew it I was in recovery.
In recovery I was in serious pain. I even regretted getting it done for a minute. They kept giving me pain meds but nothing really helped. (I have a really strong tolerance since I had been on painkillers for a few years after my car accident). Finally the Valium kicked in and it helped more than the pain meds actually. I got home but my mom had to leave for a doc appt of her own. You don't realize how much you use your chest muscles for things. Opening a bottle of meds was excruciating. Took a Vicodin, two Valium, and 800 mg of Motrin. Throughout the day it's gotten better. Again, the Motrin and Valium are lifesavers. Trying to get comfy in bed took per twenty minutes because again, you don't realize how much of those muscles you use. Quite honestly I can't wait to get home to my bed lol I have an adjustable base bed that I can raise the back, feet, and lower it closer to the ground.
I didn't take my bra off, just peeked. Tried taking a picture but again, the raising the arms was not easy lol so far so good. They aren't super high, don't seem far apart, seem a bit small but I think the 339ccs natrelle were a good choice. I know about boob greed but honestly all I wanted was to look like I do in a Victoria's Secret bombshell bra without having to wear one. I feel like there are so many meds and vitamins to take but will worry about it tomorrow. Right now I'm happy with how things went and can't wait to see when I can take the bra off.
Thank you for reading, I'll update tomorrow and hopefully be feeling a lot better.
