Nope! I've had two reductions (one in high school and another this year [in my late 30s]) and didn't miss them either time! In high school, I believe I went from a 36DDD to a 36 full-C. (I remember being disappointed that I wasn't smaller post-surgery.) After 3 babies and breastfeeding, plus some weight gain, I was a 38G. Post reduction and weight loss (30 pounds post-reduction), I'm a 36A/B. I *love* my new size. And I've even started RUNNING, which was impossible before. If I need a little more fullness, I'll buy a padded bra. But IMO, size isn't as important as shape. My shape is perky and perfect.
I've not been on here in a while. With summer break in full swing and three kids in activities, I'm barely on the computer at all these days. :o) (We have an almost 3 year old, too! She turns 3 mid-July.)
Anyhoo... you may have written it somewhere, but what size did you end up being?! I'm a 36 small C! (WOO HOO!) I'm losing weight and inching closer to a 34 band, so we'll see if I stay in a C. Much better than my previous 38G. ;o)
Thanks, Iowa! I'm FINALLY feeling 100% again (in the head - LOL). My right side underarm seems, at the moment at least, to be evening out. The right has been the side to give me fits since the beginning, so maybe that side is retaining some swelling.
Thanks, Kate! I have a question for you, since you are my 'surgery sister'... When should we stop taping and move to BioOil for scar reduction? I've started putting BioOil on my drain scars and I love it. It doesn't seem like it's time to stop taping yet, but I'm just thinking ahead. :o)
