Anxiously Awaiting 1/20/12 - Idaho

I ordered a new cg from makemeheal.com it is supposed to be here today. I am po day 24 and I am afraid what I have been wearing hasn't been tight enough. It is what they put me in at the surgery center. It is a large though...it hasn't been uncomfortable at all which sounds good, unless it isn't doing what it should to help contour my lipoed hips and thighs. I am still wearing my binder also. My question is, once I get my new cg and if it is as tight as I am expecting should I still have to wear my binder on top? Are all of you still wearing your binder? I will be 4 weeks on Friday. It would be so nice not to wear it...clothes would fit better I'm sure. Anyway, just curious.

Hey everyone...I haven't been on here in awile, just wanted to check in. I am back to work this week as of po day 18 today is po day 21. I feel pretty good. I do hair and I have scheduled lots of breaks between each client, and it seems to be a good way of easing into normalcy. I'm still taking tylenol and I do have some swelling.I am just happy that things have gone as smoothly as they have. I can't wait to ditch the binder and wear real clothes! I will post pictures soon hopefully. My scar is nice and low and thin so I'm glad about that. Anyway...hope you are all doing well!

No Sassy, I don't have any blisters where the steri strips are. Just where the bb is there was just guaze there. I don't think it is an allergy. I probably just need to chill and wait for them to go away. It seems like I always have to have something to obsess over.lol

PO day 5 and feeling pretty good. My back hurts when I'm up walking from being hunched over, but other than that I feel ok. My tummy looks nice and flat. I have some strange blistering around my bb area and that kinda bothers me. The PS saw a couple of them on Monday when I had my follow up visit. He didn't seem to concerned. When I got home and showered I noticed a bigger long blister directly under my bb too. It doesn't hurt because my tummy is numb. Has anyone else experienced anything like this?

I just read this after I read your private message. Sorry for asking you questions you already answered. That is good you are not draining much. Maybe you will have your drains removed soon.
