Helloooo! Btw I am 5'3, 130 lbs, started at a 32A. I'm starting this late but I'm stuck in the house and finally feeling (almost?) a little normal again. I am 6 days post op. My left breast is a little more sore and slightly more swollen then the right. I think I was a little too productive yesterday. The experience for me wasn't super painful but definitely not easy. I had a HORRIBLE time coming off of my pain medication, felt like the worst hangover ever. But I'm off all meds entirely and feel a lot better. No significant pain at this point. My boobs still feel really heavy and sore, and walking around too much is not comfortable. I tried showering by myself yesterday and that turned out to be premature and I immediately got out after washing my hair. Anyway, I see a lot of women healed a lot faster and I'm not gonna lie, I'm bummed I'm still on the struggle bus. I'm trying to be patient with the process but I also hate being dependent on my boyfriend for cleaning up and feeding me, etc... Anywho! Sorry I'm late. I have my one week post-op in two days so hopefully those massage techniques will help these puppies drop and settle! Updated on 7 Oct 2020: Well, I’m definitely moving around with more ease. I still feel really uncomfortable taking showers and cooking but I’m not glued to the bed as I have been. My left boob has been giving me trouble. As you can see, it looks bigger and significantly lower than the right. Which freaks me out but I’m trying to be patient, and I did see another woman who has this issue so. I’m trying to take it easy. Although I was losing it in my apartment so I went for a little walk around the block. It was nice, but I think I’m done for the day lol. Anyway, my right boob has been doing great, not too sore, but this left pup over here, loss of sensation (unless it’s painful apparently) and I have to be real careful with my movements otherwise it hurts bad. I’ve been lazy about elevating myself enough but I’m whipping my ass back into shape. I’ve learned my lesson, boob gods. Hopefully they’ll balance out soon. I have my one week post op appointment Friday so I hope all goes well. Updated on 8 Oct 2020: I’ve been freaking out on and off again about this left boob. It gets shooting pains and is tender if I touch it. Yesterday my breasts started feeling really tight and firm after I got out of bed. Today they still feel really firm. I’m gonna call my doctors office. But I’m just so stressed. Updated on 9 Oct 2020: Hello all! Went to my one week post op today and got some clarity and reassurance that all my experiences are totally normal and not uncommon. I’m just a hypochondriac and freak out at basically everything regarding bodily functionality blah blah blah. I know. What a great candidate for cosmetic surgery lol. ANYWAY, Dr. Sohn and the nurse reassured everything looks and feels normal and I’m actually healing nicely despite my fears and concerns. They showed me the massages today and touching/pressing on my left boob during them only felt a little uncomfortable after the fact but felt good while I was massaging. So I’m feeling a lot better. I have to remember everyone heals differently, and I am just one of those people that need a little extra downtime and patience with my body. I’m so relieved. And coincidentally, the day of my one-week, my left boob felt a lot better. Also, my doctor said there is a theory that high consumption of caffeine can be related to firmness of breast...(I was like, YIKES I’m a coffee lady). Anyway, something to think about. Updated on 25 Oct 2020: Sorry I have been MIA. But good news is, these puppies have slowly been softening, dropping, and I basically don’t feel any pain in my left breast like before. It feels so good to be able to clean and move around like before and I’ll never take it for granted again. I have my 3 week post op tomorrow. I haven’t bought any bras yet. I’m thinking I am a full c or small d. I’m just so happy to feel normal. My left boob is still dropping faster than my right and looks a little bigger ? Not sure if this is because it’s dropping and fluffing faster. But to be frank, I couldn’t care less. It’s very slight and what boobs are perfectly symmetrical anyway? Also my scars are chill. I see some people worry about them. They are not prominent and they are healing nicely. I put jojoba oil on my boobs for possible stretch marks and scarring (doctor ok’d this after a week as long as I was real careful about my incisions). So stretch marks yet, even if there are eventually, whatever. I’m just happy I’m healthy and painless!
