Breast lift recovery; is it possible to hide the fact that I had surgery from my teenagers?

I tend to agree with my colleague below!  A breast lift is significant surgery, with a few days of postop tenderness, swelling, and the need to really be off your feet.Teenagers are quite attentive and astute when it comes to noticing something is up with Mom.  I would be surprised if you were able to pull off completely hiding the fact that you had surgery from them.  That being said, it is your decision and a private one at that, so if you feel strongly about it, there is nothing wrong with not telling them.You should certainly have a plan if you are going to try to keep it from them.  You certainly don't want any of them horsing around with you and inadvertently hitting your chest.  Best of luck with your surgery!
