Today is better than yesterday. I feel like I can actually stand and my incisions aren't going to explode open. My back is hurting- probably from the pressure while lying down.
Still not moving around too much. If I don't have to, I'm not going to. There is literally no other time in my life when I am required to do as little as possible so I'm taking advantage.
Still taking pain meds, and don't plan on stopping today.
Laxatives are a must, but I was able to avoid zofran.

Took some bikini pics, and fell in love. Can't stop thanking my husband for supporting me through this.

They look so perfect right now, and I wonder what they will look like in a few weeks. I didn't have to wear a binder or anything because, as my nurse said, "Dr. Saltz makes her pockets very precisely" meaning they won't move around a lot. I think I like that. They do move to the side and down when I stand or lay, but they're not sitting too high on my chest. I am so happy.

Woke up in less pain

I was taking half of a Percocet to manage pain. Thinking I'm some sort of tough girl :) missed a dosing and had woken up in immense pain. Now I'm just taking the full dose at the correct time. Like I'm supposed to! Haha. But I'm not weird or groggy and that's what I wanted to avoid.

Anyway. I'm very nervous to take the bra off, but I want to see them so bad! From what I can see now they look how hey looked when I was nursing which is great. They don't look foreign.

Thank you! I had bad experiences with Percocet so I am apprehensive. Not trying to tough it out- just scared. Haven't had anything bad happen now though! And thank you. I am so happy with my body (for the first time!)

I didn't need my pain Meds except for riding home in the car the first w days. But my husband encouraged me to take them just to stay on top of the pain, so I did for the first 2 days. Very seldom though. About every 8 hrs. I downloaded a pill reminder app for my Meds. Also I took the muscle relaxer mainly for sleep because I have insomnia.

I had been taking half a Percocet because I'm not a fan of meds (I don't like feeling dizzy) so when I went to sleep and missed a dose, I woke up in far too much pain. Now I'm taking a full dose ever 6 hours and feeling fine. Not groggy. I'm hoping that it's for two days or so like you described. Thank you!

Pain meds are a necessary evil I'm afraid! My PS advised me to take pain meds every 4 hours even if I felt okay. Told me women skipped taking them because they felt ok then the pain hit them hard & they gobbled too many meds to make it stop. I found the pain was at it's worst the first 5-6 days.
