1 YEAR POST-OP

Sorry I haven't been on here for, literally, months, or responded to anyone. I was reminded that today was my 1-year surgiversary haha so I thought I post some more recent pics and let everyone know how I am doing.

I was a 32d/36c for a while, but I've lost some weight and also done a lot of strength training so I think I went down in size a bit more. I'm a pretty solid 34C right now but depending on the bra I still wear 32D.

I don't even notice my implants unless I am doing push ups or something that really engages my chest. Even then, there is no pain, but sometimes my left implant area is a little sore after (left side was where I had to have the incision opened back up right after surgery. I do think there might be a little scar tissue because my left implant never quite made it to drop as low as my right, but only I notice that haha. Whenever I get a little sore, which I think it's mostly just nerve sensitivity (read that the nerves get irritated from the implants), I just take 1 IBprofen and I'm fine.

I should mention that I have absolutely no stretch marks from the stretching of my skin and my incision scars have healed up very nicely. You can't even see them.

I'm actually in graduate school right now and doing ROTC, so it's nice to know I can have my implants and still be physically active in the military.

If anyone has any questions or concerns or even comments, I promise I will respond from now on!!

I still can't believe it has been a year since the surgery. Time has gone by so quickly and I could not be happier with my results.

6 months post-op

So it's been a really long time since I've posted on here, but I'm about 6 months post op and in love my boobies and my body. It doesn't even feel like I have implants, they feel so natural and a part of me. I can do everything I was able to do before surgery and have had no complications since the first few weeks. I'm about a 34c in some bras and 34d in others. I have no stretch marks or sagging...they're as perky and perfect as ever. Ill post a couple of pictures tomorrow, I just wanted to post this tonight.

Hey everyone! So I know I haven't been updating as...

Hey everyone! So I know I haven't been updating as much anymore, but that is because there hasn't been much change. I was 5 weeks post op yesterday, but only 2 weeks post the surgical draining of my hematoma, so my left incision is still healing. I'm waiting until next Friday for my final post op appt with my PS, to clear me to resume all activity. Because of the complications before, he won't let me exercise yet or lift anything, or take any NSAIDs. I am totally okay with that since I want to heal completely this time. From what I can tell, my incision is still healing...I hope it will change a lot in the next week though because my hubby and I are moving to CO and I won't be able to see my PS anymore after this. I'm praying that there is no infection and that the incision is healed. My right side has really dropped and I can start to feel my natural breast tissue again already. My left is still right because he made it that way when he stitched me back up...I think. It still had a little ways to drop and fluff out a bit. However, I am SO thrilled with my boobs. They look amazing finally and I don't notice them as much anymore. The great part about that is that I know they will only get better from here. I have yet to get "officially" sized. I was waiting until my 6 week appt since mine have taken longer to drop. After that I will be getting a new bikini too. I can't wait!! I might even go to the gym the same day if he says its okay too haha. I need to for my own sanity! I will keep you all updated on my final appt and will post pics of anything I buy :).

I hope you are all having a boobiful weekend! For my buddies, you're all looking even more amazing than me. For the girls who just had their BA, be patient, you will love them!!

Thank you for all of the support...I don't know what I would have done without this website and all of you beautiful ladies. :)

PS: I posted a couple more pics.

I actually found Dr. T through RealSelf and I really liked the work I saw on his website. His explanations for how he operated were very thorough as well. As soon as I had my first consultation with him, I knew he was the one. He is extremely knowledgable and very understanding and caring. I did not feel as though he rushed me at all, and took the time to let me try on many sizers, ask a million questions, and explain as much as he could. And his consultation was free too!! He called me several times before I had my surgery to make sure all of my questions were answered and I felt comfortable about the procedure. He wasn't just another PS looking for money...he wanted to make sure my implants would be proportionate to the curves of my body more so than what the cup size was. Oh and have I mentioned Pei? She is the best patient coordinator ever!! She seriously emails you or calls you back within minutes! I constantly had questions and was surprised at how quickly she got back to me. She was so friendly and helpful, and made the overall experience that much better. I would recommend Dr. Tattelbaum to anyone on the MD/DC/VA area...or even anyone further away. I know he has a lot of "out-of-towners". He offers a military discount too which was helpful for me. He did an amazing job and listened to everything I wanted. I have little to no bruising or inflammation...they are healing perfectly!! Although I'm moving in May, I would certainly go back to Dr. T if I ever needed anything else. He's the best!
