Awaiting Surgery! 1/4/2012 - Richmond, CA

Hey so I'm a 38'ddd and I had that feeling also but my ps told me that even though my cup size wasn't too big, I had really dense breasts. So just because they aren't so big doesn't mean that they aren't the culprit of some issues.dont feel bad, everyone deserves to feel great!

Hey guys !! My surgery is the 4th and I'm soooooo worried because I have an itchy dry cough. No congestion or fever or anything like that but will the reschedule if it's still here on Wednesday????

I have been trying to put off shopping for as long as i can because i dont want to get too excited too soon. But i do have a list of things that a lot of people have recomended..

antibacterial soap
extra bandages/gauze
gold bond ointment
ace bandages
a couple sports bras
comfortable slippers
an eye mask (to help you sleep during the day)
comfortable hair bands/ties since you cant do your hair
button up pjs and shirts

and just overall make sure that you have everything you need for entertainment and to make the spot that you will be staying comfortable. I say this just because i feel like it would suck to have to come and either hurt yourself trying to do it or asking someone else to do it. Ill be staying with my mom and im super happy about it but at the same time i feel kind of weird and dont want to ask her for everything, you know?

But i think in general you could probably just see what you need when the time comes. and if the doctor didnt tell you anything about gauze or sports bras, they might be supplying that for you.

Enjoy your last day with the girls!

I have seen a lot of people say that they can be sort of misshapen, but like i said after a couple weeks you just have to massage them and take good care of the wounds so as to help the tissue mend back together well. It is a whole bunch of tissue being taken out so you have to give it time to mend back together. I have heard that it can take up to a year for them to go to their actual size and shape so don't freak out if they look a little wierd at first.

I agree with you about the stitches and stuff but i think that the best thing you can do is go into it with an open mind and dont focus too much on the temporary things. Just be focused on how amazing you will feel after its all said and done!

Im so thankful for this site and i love that were in the same situation! I hope you come on here and update how you're doing. Ill keep you in my thoughts. :)

Haha! :D Thats exactly what i do now. When i have free time and start thinking about it all i do is research and watch videos and look at pictures. My boyfriend and mom think im crazy because i keep on telling them new info like every day! But thats the only way i can occupy myself or else i might just freak out! i cannot wait.. im so happy for you! Dont freak out! Just be super excited! Do you have everything you're going to need?
