Why on earth would he try to talk you out of it?! You have a TINY frame and ENORMOUS boobs. You're one of the most ideal candidates I've seen on this forum! Good for you for being assertive. I hope you get your date soon.
Wow! I think you look great! I completely understand, though- I was sort of shocked in the couple days after my surgery. They looked SO small to me. It's funny, though, how quickly your body image can adjust. I'm less than two months post-op and some days I'm already looking in the mirror and feeling like they're too big again :) It's also amazing how much the size and shape can change, too. You really won't know the final result for at least a few more months. Best of luck in your healing process!
You are such a sweetheart.. thanks so much for thinking of me :) Yes, things are closing up, just soooo slowly. But the rest of the scars look great, so I can't complain. Wow- less than two month for you now- it's going to fly by!
Jeesh- You poor thing. Yes, I wish doctors were better about communicating what is and isn't normal after surgery because, you're right- there's a lot to freak out about! I had a DVT a couple years ago, so that was top-of-mind for me, too, after surgery... but I actually got a dosage of thinners to address that. The swelling was the WORST! I felt like the Michelin man for days after the surgery. Nobody told me that would happen either... Yes, thank goodness for this forum :)
Hey rh- it's too early to tell yet about swelling around my cycle- I'm only three weeks in (and, lucky me, I had my period DURING the surgery. Ugh). But I have been told that if you have issues with swelling prior to surgery, the reduction won't fix that. Good luck!
