I added progress photos labeled how far PO they are.I recently found out my surgeon is not a board certified PS but a CS! This has me worried he could have overdissected my pockets. He says as they d&f I will have a gap but I don't trust his answer. I've started wearing a thong bra 24/7 at 3wpo did I get it soon enough?
