Well, it has been 3 weeks since my BA/BL! Things are going great as far as my breasts and tummy are going. I went to my PO today and my PS was great as usual, took the tape off the breast incisions and boy did it make them sensitive! My feeling is coming back around all of my incisions and in my nipples which I am so happy for. I don't have to wear the CG unless I want to, which is awesome, but I have to say I have grown accustomed to it at night. My hubby and I tried to follow the directions on the Victorias Secret online bra size measurements and kept coming up with 38 A, LOL! Pretty sure we aren't doing something right since my 38D sports bra is a perfect fit! LOL My oldest boys have been amazing, they told me what a great mom I have been, how lucky they are and how they were proud of me for doing this for myself and the best compliment of all was them telling me how Amazing I look... Yep... I shed a tear or two! I have enjoyed shopping with my oldest daughter (14yrs old) who is a definite fashion diva, and my 2nd son looked at the pic and thought it was my daughter, which of course made me smile big! I am so pleased with my results and have not had one single regret thus far. Although I do have to admit that I have wondered about the breasts being big enough now that most of the swelling has gone down and they aren't as big as they were even a week ago. My hubby reassures me that they are perfect :0) Well, off to bed... Good Luck to all of those who will be going on soon and Happy Healings to all of you who have already went!

Feeling pretty good today. Breasts are less painful and bruising is going down, I can actually touch them and not wince. Nipples are still numb but I am told this is normal for the first few weeks, will be glad when things soften up a little. The wickedest thing is when I move just right and they make noises, my PS said to expect this as there is always some air and fluid in the pocket and moving them around can cause them to make weird noises.
The L-breast looks bad because when I had to go back in to have the R-breast drained they had to betadyne the entire area and they didnt want to disturb the stitches on the L-breast.
I will try to get some new pics of my TT on here soon.
Happy Healing ladies and good luck to all of those going in soon.

Glad to hear that your still doing well! It takes several weeks for them to start dropping and soften up. Mine are finally where I wanted them to be at PO 6 weeks. The next few weeks they will start feeling much better. Continue healing well! :) Your going to look amazing!!!

Thank you! They are feeling better every day and getting the feeling back a little at a time. I think I will end p with a full D, possibly DD. No complaints!! I will update soon, its been so busy with Lent and Church that I haven't had a lot of extra time on my hands this past week. Hope all is well in your world!

Looks great! Question, will the noises stop after you heal? :) just curious as I'd like to know what to expect

Rach,
Im so glad that everything well well for you. :) That must have been a bit scary to have to be put back under to fix your Rt boob,but at least now its over with. Yeah!! Now the healing can begin. I think you are going to love your 550s.(I know your dh will too!!!) My 600s are starting to feel like part of my body. Im so happy with the size and yes- my dh is LOVING them too!!!! lol You are going to have so much fun on your shopping spree in April!! That alone will help you get through the next few weeks of healing. God definitely hears all our prayers and will help you through all of this. As for my TT- at 3-5 weeks PO I developed a big seroma (sac of fluid) that wasnt going away, even with having it drained. I had a fever and the ps was worried about infection. The muscles werent growing back together like theyre supposed to. Thats why she opened me back up, drained it , did a bunch of other gross stuff,,,lol and put drains back in. It now feels much better, is flat again and seems to be healing better. I hated going back under but now Im over the worst of it and just looking forward to healing completely. Yeah for flat tummys, big boobies, great husbands, and shopping spress!!!! Take care and rest! :) Hugs!!

Well it is good to hear that you are healing nicely again. I had my post-op today and everything went well. My PS said that they will be perfect when the swelling goes down and they soften up. Although, he doesnt use drains and I dont really think it has made my recovery worse or more painful than it is for anyone else who does use the drains. I put on my sweatshirt and you couldnt even tell I have boobs now, I was actually worried and thinking "crap maybe the 500's werent big enough", my hubby about died when I said that. LOL but seeing them naked is a whole ither story, they are definitely bif enough, they should be a full D when the swelling has gone down, hubby and PS say closer to DD+, so we will see :0). Happy healing!
