I’m 3 weeks pre BA and am feeling a bit over the place. I’ve wanted a BA for as long as I can remember but could never afford it, but I’ve come into some money and am now booked in for 3 weeks time, after numerous consultations. I used to have lovely, full boobs but since having my 3 children, breastfeeding them all, losing weight and toning up I can honestly say I hate my boobs. Having battled for years with eating disorders and body dismorphia I’m finally happy with my body, except for my boobs. I have seen 4 different consultations over the past 7-10 years, and have decided to pick the PS I felt most comfortable with. I’ve had a few convos with him about what I want the outcome to be and the size I want but I can’t really confirm a size and so am going with pictures a the rice test to determine size, I’ve yet to do the rice test but have until 16th March to do this, we have looked at 375cc and have had simulation pics taken with this size. I’ve found this site to be so helpful and so am hoping I can share my journey and thoughts on her, hopefully to help others and as a safe place to talk about my feelings. X Updated on 16 Apr 2018: My initial op date was cancelled a week before I was due to go in, finally have a new date, which is next Thursday. Am getting really nervous now....and really worrying about recovery ???? Updated on 25 Apr 2018: One day before my op and am feeling super anxious and nervous! I also feel quite lonely as none of my family nor my partner are supporting me on this journey, and I have 3 children to look after. Thankfully I have some amazing friends. I also haven’t told my work yet, I have the weekend and 2 days to recover before I go back to work, i have and office job and so hope this will be ok! Does anyone have any helpful hints or tips for when I pack my bag tonight! Updated on 28 Apr 2018: 2 days post op and I’m still in hospital, feeling quite emotional! My surgery took longer than expected and so I have stayed in an extra night! Still very sore and quite swollen, particularly my ribs and stomach, did anyone else have this? Willa upload photos later when I’ve taken some Updated on 1 May 2018: So, five days post op and I’m feeling ok, I’m still a bit stiff and my abdomen is very bruised but other than that I’m doing ok! Was supposed to be going back to work tomorrow but am going to work from home for the rest of the week and do reduced hours! Think I’m just paranoid that something is going to go wrong ???? Updated on 1 May 2018: Updated on 8 May 2018: So today is the first day back in the office since I had my op, I worked from home for 3 days last week and then had a long weekend so have had quite a while to relax. Since getting home however I’ve been having shooting pains in both my breasts and my nipples are feeling sensitive around where the incisions where made, am hoping this is normal?? I have my first post op check up on Friday so not too many days to wait but will all my PS tomorrow to double check. Just feeling w little concerned now ???? Updated on 16 May 2018: I’m 3 weeks post op, had my dressings removed a week ago. I’ve been healing really well until last night when I noticed a slight yellow weeping on my right breast, is this normal? I’m feeling ok in myself but clearly just worrying now. I’ve emailed my PS and so hopefully he gets back to me today. Pics are of last night and then this morning.
