Surgery is booked for May 2018. Super excited , but also very nervous . I will start by saying that I have wanted this surgery for such. Long time . Because I was never in the situation to be able to afford new boobies, this was only a dream.
I was 16yrs old when I had my first baby(a baby myself) I had my 2nd at 21,3rd by 23 and when I was 29, gave birth to my 4th baby. All babies were breast fed and 3/4 were full time breast fed with no formula for min 8-10mths.
I was very fortunate to get minimal stretch marks and to lose my baby weight.(each child was a different weight gain , 23lbs- 45lbs. All of my children were born to term and 7-9lbs each.
Having the ability to do this for myself is a huge step to being more confident in myself. I am only doing this surgery for myself and no one or anything else.

First day went ok , second day post op has been the absolute worst pain I’ve ever experienced (I’ve had 4 children )
I can’t get comfortable, I haven’t been able to open doors or get in and out of bed on my own. The muscles in my back and upper chest are killing me .
I finally switched off the OxyContin to just the antibiotics and now the muscle relaxers, hoping to find some relief soon

Feeling great today. Seen the doctor , he said everything looks great ! I’m starting to finally have relief from the pain and able to sleep . Still very swollen , and left Brest needs to drop more to catch up to right.

Time sure does fly! Can’t believe it’s already been 17 days . Left breast still is very high and I keep getting muscle contractions in my breasts , not painful but enough to make you notice them.
I haven’t been on any pain pills since 7days Po, I’m sleeping ok at night but I’m aside sleeper and this Laying on the back stuff sucks! Scars are healing nicely , but very sensitive !
