Hey ladies, I just wanted to post and say I am feeling much better about my boobs. Being on my cycle makes me really emotional sometimes and I think that played a big part on why I was feeling so down earlier in the week. Now I have to be honest another part of why I feel so much better is because I finally let a man see them. I finally "indulged" as our good friend gobigtallgirl likes to say. I was so nervous about letting my friend see my breast because I knew he would have questions. When I took my shirt off he kept asking what did I do to my breast. I never answered directly because really it was obvious. Lol But he loved how my breast looked and kept telling me how hot I was. Which helped a lot because y'all know how I have been feeling about the girls. The kicker was he said "they were soft as [RS bleep]". That put a huge smile on my face because I have been worried about the right one being so firm.

Sorry if this is over sharing but it has helped me feel a lot better. Oh before I forget I am still kinda numb on both breasts so the sensitivity isn't still a 100% but it made me wonder if that why I think my right breast is so firm. Maybe because my sensitivity is off and I am not really "feeling" like i should. I dont know if that makes sense. My PS said on Tuesday that both breast felt the same to her.*kanye shrug*

Thanks for listening and I hope I didn't offend anyone.
Oh and my right boob has dropped a little more. I guess slowly but surely.

Oh and I took the advice from some of the ladies and played dress up last night. There are a lot of real cute tops that I can't fit anymore but I expected that but I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE how I look in tank tops and wife beaters now. And I had this one dress that I can now fill out at the top that I have been dying to wear. I couldn't stop looking at myself. Excuse my moment of vanity ladies. Lol but I had been faking it so long with the Bombshell bra that it felt so good to see some fullness. I think I am finally falling in love with my girls :-)

I had my BA on 3/21/13, 425 R, 400 L. Left is still firmer and I massage every chance I get. I'm freaked out about getting capsular contracture. I have my down days but this forum has helped me a lot. I'm African American and I hope my scars heal well. I just can't wait for the final results :)

Hey Missy! What are you using on your scars? I am using biocorneum and my scars are healing nicely so far. I agree this forum is very helpful. Especially when you are feeling down everyone is so encouraging. We just have to be patient ( easier said than done).

Not using anything on my scars yet. I still have the steri strips and that will come off at my 4 wk appt this Tuesday. Then my PS will put fresh ones on and I have to keep those on for another 2 weeks. I was told the longer I keep them on the smoother my scars will be since black people keloid more and I don't want that. I did buy scar away sheets at CVS so I'll be using that in 2 weeks. I have the patience of a 2 yr old :)
April 13, 2013
Oh ok. I didn't have steri strips. I have been using the biocorneum for about 4 weeks now and my scars are healing pretty good. I hope yours heal good as well.

Hey Wish how are you I wanted to see how things were on Your end are. I hope all is well
May 8, 2013
Hey Bossy! Thanks for checking up on me. Things are well for the most part. No major pains. Just some shooting pains every once in awhile that I think are the nerves reattaching. I am hoping so because I still don't have full sensitivity in my breast yet. I still can't wear a bra which can be a challenge at times. I tried to find a bra without underwire. Looking for that in a size 34D is like going on a treasure hunt. Lol I could only find ones that look like what my grandma wears. Uh no thanks. Lol how have you been? I hope all is well.
May 9, 2013
Lol did you get sized yet? Try The genie bras for now or the Hilly Hicks bralettes. I've had that shooting pain in my right boob omg that hurts happens at night mostly .
May 9, 2013
Yes, I went to Victoria's Secret and got sized. They said I am between a 34 and 36 D. I have a genie bra now but it kinda fits like a sports bra(the cut) but I am really not supposed to wear one unless its absolutely necessary and if I wear one it needs to be loose with no underwire. But I will try to find the other bras you recommended. How are things with you and your bra search?

Try Maiden Form. Their bras are very comfortable and well priced. They even sell DD bras.

We'll it's been one year from last month that I had my breast aug done. I'm one of those ladies that once they settled, wish I went bigger. So I'm going back in December for an upgrade and tummy tuck. I had Lipo done in 2012 and it didn't make much of a difference so I think it's time to just do both at the same time. I'll keep you guys posted.

Hey Wish I wanted to check in and see how you were doing. I hope all is well

Hello Ladies! It has been awhile since I have updated my profile.
Today I went for my six week post op appointment. My PS checked me out and said the girls look good and they are coming together nicely. Well except my right boob which is still riding kinda high. The right side is the one with the larger implant and the smaller breast so I guess it's still trying to accommodate the implant. *sigh*. Because of this I keep the girls covered up.
Thankfully they are softening and the left one has a little movement. The right one is still a little firmer. In fact the physician's assistant that I saw today was a little concerned that I may be developing CC but thankfully my PS ruled that out. So, I feel much better about that. I still cannot wear a bra but got some nipple covers called DIMR's. I thought the name was pretty funny since lately I have been flashing everyone at work with my high beams. Lol and smh I was also told I needed to massage more frequently and a little more aggressively. So, I will start that tonight.
I did share with my PS today that I feel like my breast are too large for me. She was pretty surprised and said they rarely hear that in her office. Lol. I wasn't surprised to hear that. Lol I guess I am feeling kinda iffy ladies. In fact I was close to tears today during my appt. I think a larger part of my emotional reaction is hormones because I am currently on my cycle. My PS hugged me and told me to give it some time but if I was still unhappy when I came back for my 6 month check up we could discuss a revision.
Sorry to sound negative ladies. Overall my experience has been good and my PS has been wonderful. I think I just need to give it more time.
Thanks for listening. I posted some new pics from my office visit today

April 11, 2013
Hey hun! I am feeling better today. I think I was "just in my feelings" yesterday. I have been massaging like crazy since I got home. Lol. And my girls have never been the same size but wasn't as noticeable when they were itty bitties. Lol I'll play dress up tomorrow and see if that helps. Thanks for the advice girl!
