POD 26

WORTH IT$8,000
It definitely took me a solid 3 1/2 weeks before I felt 99% normal again. I have not yet started exercising but will be starting walking today/this week. My PS releases to film exercises at 3 weeks however my research on RS revealed slow transition is best so I waited purposefully until the 4th week. Also my breasts at the "stress points" are still healing. They are also at 95% I would say (pictures above). I have not yet started scar therapy. Worlds are still closing and I'm going to do a little bit of research on average start time. I'm sure it's when all wounds/scabs close an dim not there yet. I'm finally out of my surgical bra as of POD 25. I am using the under armor protégée DD (which I could only tolerate as of POD 25 and purchased playtex wireless comfort flex bras from target. I am wearing Hanes cozy all day bra to sleep. I am NOT yet sleeping on my stomach and tolerate side sleeping in short burts but long term pressure on my boobs including leaning on my elbows like over a counter or something causes muscle tightness that I'm not comfortable with so still avoiding chest pressure type positions while pushing my boundaries slowly.
Hi by has not yet played with them. It's not painful but it's not yet feeling good to squeeze in my opinion.
Nipples sooooooooooooooooooooooo sensitive. I HS the shooting nipple pains for a day or two POD 20 that resolved with Motrin but I definitely had to take Motrin those were killer.
Well still healing and mosying along. So glad to see the other AugustBoobs doing great!

Happy 1 month!

Gingoes, they are a lovely shape. Perhaps your PS was spot on with the size change? I'm looking to 400CC but reconsidering... May I ask what the brand and projection etc of your implants? I am assuming they are under the muscle?

Also I can not spot your height and weight. I find those stats really helpful when assessing size etc.

Please can you post photos of how the breast scar is looking now ? is it very obvious ?
I want to make the surgery but i am very afraid the scar can be obvious
Thanks dear

#WishBoobs... they look amazing. What size were you post surgery. Just asking because I'm having the same done. I'm a 34c doc says only to do 275cc's of saline at most. I wanted 300 tho.

My boobs definitely tell me when I overdo it. Last night I took a muscle relaxer and Motrin but still couldn't get comfortable on my usual
Four pillows so finally I took 1 away then 2 away then 3! And I had the best seep in 2 weeks. I still woke up with morning boobs lol but not as trick hard right. This has definitely been a journey that continues. Now I'm eager for the incisions to heal so I can start scar therapy. For those on the other side at how many PODs were u able to start scar therapy?

I haven't started scar therapy yet. I just had my stitches removed on Saturday so I'm gonna give it a few days before I apply anything just to let the little holes shut and prevent skin infection.
Every day gets better and better. I can't wait for my skin sensations to return to normal, my tight bands to go away in my arms and a few boobie tender spots... Then I'll be golden!

1 week POV

I was disappointed that I have some open areas along my incision but I was told and red that it is to be expected. I asked my PS why the unexpected change from our discussion to 350 ... He said that because the mentor impact is shaped that there is a conversion involved to get the same effect. Let me say that I am very happy with the size. It's the old me with my padded push up VS without the VS lol.

Pain is down but sleeping is still very uncomfortable. I normally slept comfortably flat with no pillows. I have fined from 4 pillows to 2 pillows but it's still a struggle to get comfortable. Tonight I'm actually thinking about not using a muscle relaxer. My Braxton Hicks of the boob has mellowed but it still occurs when I am moving around a lot. I'm still trying to actively drink a lot of water and I am still one he 30 day helpmeheal postop meds.

My next POV will be on 3 weeks. I'm hoping to look like some of your 2 week pictures. I'm very eager as I'm sure you can understand for my suture lines to fully heal and close. Now my fear is a skin infection :-(. The worst looking one is the 6 o clock on my right nipple it is shallow and it was cleansed with betadine and steristrip reapplied. It stung for the first time when I showers tonight so I removed the wet steristrips air dried dotted with and ointment and covered with steristrip. :-((

It looks like you are healing really well and they look great! I can see a big difference between day 1 and day 7.
