Healing: What a LONG journey!!

Thank you hm331! Feeling much better now! Im almost a month post-op, so I think I'm in the clear, as far as pain is concerned. :)

Hey lady!! Doing great! FINALLY starting to feel normal again. Thanks so much for keeping up with me. :) Boobs have started to settle and feel like part of my body. They are the perfect size. Couldn't be happier!

Hi there & thanks for writing!! YOU look awesome!! How on earth did you keep SO fit after 5 kids? Guess they keep you busy & on your toes, huh? Wow, go girl! Thanks for asking about me - I'm doing much better now. Yeah, my 'crash' or difficulty has more to do with the labiaplasty than anything else - but I really think my breasts are coming along fine. I just have a bit more problems with my left boob than my right one. My left is very tight, almost uncomfortably so & it doesn't seem to have settled I to the breast pocket quite yet. I'm massaging everyday, so hopefully that will get better over time. If there's one lesson I've been forced to learn through this experience is patience! :)

Oh wow...the 'zingers'! That is a great description! They certainly do zing, like a shock or electric current, huh? And thanks for the compliments! Yes, I do love them. I'm starting to really enjoy this feeling of being 'fleshy' in all the right spots, now. Its so wonderful to fill out a beautiful lacy bra without padding to a strapless dress without a bra at all. Now I'm really looking forward to summer. Also, yours look perfect! You & I have the exact same implant - 375cc, mod plus! For me, I'm so so glad I didn't go any bigger. With this size, I know I'll still be able to run (albeit later in the future) and be active. I can even hide them under a sweater, say if I'm going to church, visiting family or picking up my kid from school. Thanks for the encouragement & keep us posted on your progress! :)

I have the exact same experience as you do - my left breast being more painful & feeling tighter than the other. I also have way more bruising on that IDE but I think it's bc that's the side of the bed I sleep on and I have hurt myself trying to get up & down in the middle of the night. I've been taking a lot of arnica montana & drinking a packet of Emergen-C everyday to help heal and get ride of the swelling. I think it has helped a lot. Also, I've been rubbing in some Arnica gel over each breast everyday, too. You can get this stuff from Wal-Mart & I'm convinced it's speeding up my healing process. Also, my PS told me that my right boob has already settled inside the breast pocket but the left has not - he recommended more massage to help it. What does your PS say about it? Hope you feel better soon! :)
