WORTH IT
No pics this time, i was stuck in the hospital for 4 days....i had also lost weight. Which is dangerous for me, and now there are intermittent pains in my breasts. I'm worried it's that whole capsular contracture thing, I've sent a message to the surgeon/doc whom did the surgery for me.

Given the accidental weight loss from the bout with an illness (not covid), I'm scared about the implants and my breasts; so I'm gonna try to get an appointment with the surgeon/doc. Hopefully she'll be able to let me know if the weight loss or bout with the illness might have affected the implants or breasts. Because i was not able to do my massages or stretches during my stay in the hospital.

Even if it turns out i'm worrying for nothing, I want the doc to examine them either way.

My boobs are a lot softer now, they jiggle more and the incisions sites are healing quite nicely. Still using that tape the doc gave me, which helps doing the stretches a little easier. I'm doing massages twice a day, for about 5 mins; and always before my stretches. I use a cocoa butter stick, it goes on nice and smooth. The brand is called cocoa beauty, and it smells like chocolate; a different brand i bought...smelled like coconut scented shampoo (blech).

If you don't mind me asking, what is the stretching you are doing?

12 day post op update

Around day 9, the swelling started going down and my breasts started getting softer.

around day 10, I noticed my boobs starting to drop into a more natural position; though it'll be sometime before they assume their final post op positions.

Today being day 12, I went in for a post op appointment. They removed the stitches, gave me 3m scar tape and then took post op pics I uploaded. Doctor Ueno said I can stop wearing a support bra at night, and that "if" i can...may try to sleep on my side. So I'll give it a go tonight, and try sleeping on my back if being on my side is to uncomfortable. Doctor Ueno wants me to step on my massages, and to start using lotion during said massages; thankfully I have dermasil...but I may get cocoa butter cause I've heard numerous times about using it regarding breast augmentation.

I still love the results of my surgery, even the nurse who took the post op pics complimented me on them; turns out she herself has undergone breast augmentation and was thrilled from the results of my surgery. I'm gonna look into sports bra, with a zipper in the front; still have trouble reaching things behind my back post surgery.

The implants have done wonders for my self esteem, and I'm glad i have bigger boobs finally.
