Hi Lu :). You look really good!! Everything you describe sounds like me and my aches and pains. The swelling is still there and will go down. Don't worry about one side being different just yet. You have swelling and it may take 6 months for things to even out. I'll be 6 months post next week. Are you happy with your ba?

Hi Ana313, thank you for your feedback. It helps to know that I am not "abnormal" in what I am experiencing.

Oh yes, I am sooooooo happy with the BA. If I knew what boost of confidence it would give me, I would've done this ages ago. I really enjoy seeing my clothes fit properly since ever and my silhouette also improved and helped with my self image. I am happy with my size too, although I first thought it's too much but now I see that it fits my body shape.

Hello all,

yesterday was my 6 week mark for PO TT and BA. My BA is healing so nice and I am very happy with the results. I hope the scarring wil fade too.
I had some up and downs with my TT. The wound teared and I had to get stitches as 5 weeks PO.Now I have some small tears all over my scar, which is healing but sore.
I am back at work for 2 weeks now and are extremely tired by about 4pm. I am swollen too and look a bit oblong as my one side is flatter and I have a more prominent hourglass on my left side. Has anyone experienced that?
I really enjoy my flat tummy and not having to feel embarresed anymore about looking 5 months pregnant. It's still winter here, so I cant wait for summer to put on my sexy clothes and parade around. *big smile*
I experience some odd pains and aches and if it's very cold during the nights I am sore in the morning and walk hunched over, but during the day I am 97% upright.
I will take some pics post them and would like to get some feedback from you all.

Enjoy your new bodies and happy healing to all.

Luluwan, you're still very early in terms of p.o. I think you look good. Give it time, and try to rest when you're not working. I think you'll be pleased. Happy healing !

Hi all, today was my first day back at work. After about 4 hours I was in so much pain and decided to go home about 2 hours later. Relaxing in front of my laptop now.
I am still very swollen and wish it would go away.
I got 15 stitches on Saturday after my scar teared - I was too busy. But no harm done luckily.
I am not sure if I am happy with my results.I still seem to be very big - big tummy! I am so down about it and crying as I think all this pain and money for nothing?
