hey babydeer..surgery went well..but I am soo...swollen! just resting the pain is not to bad just really tight...
November 16, 2012
I can totally relate to the tight feeling. I keep thinking i should loosen it up some. I am three wks post op and still tight but not near as bad. I swelled a lot too. Lemon tea helped with swelling. I also took bromolean (sp?) And arnica (tablets and cream). Happy healing.

ok so I am now three dayss post-op..and everything happen so fast it felt like a dream! long story short.. I got to surgery center checked me in,paper work, got dressed and etc.. I was so nervous I got teary eyed eveythime someone ask me a simple question..lol! my doctor came in we talked about size..etc.. and next thing I know I was rolled back to the operating room! I was giggling nonstop while having aconversation with the nurse..We were talking about all the cute shirts and stuff I was going to be able to wear after surgery..then I was out! lol.. I woke up in recovery it was all done! and I agree with the other girls the anticipation is way worse then the actual procedure. Dont get me wrong it was uncomfortable ,some slight pain, and sharp pains.. but I am happy with the outcome so far! Just trying to make it through healing.I took a real shower today and it felt like heaven on earth! lol! I feel so much lighter! I can not wait to see the end result! will keep you guys updated.. but right now Im icthing like crazy! does anyone know of something good to use??.... oh yeah and dont know my size cause I m still really swollen.. but the doc said I was about a d we will see :)

November 16, 2012
yay!!! I'm glad to hear that you are doing well! congratulations***** I know you are excited. I had you in my prayers. I am itching really bad where my incisions were hahahah and I don't know what people do about that lmao! I just lightly scratch it.
November 16, 2012
thank you! and this itching is crazy! ugh... lol.. did you have a problem with swelling ?? my left is a lil bigger than the other side:(
November 17, 2012
No, I didn't have a problem with swelling. I feel like my chest is still really tight. They look boxy at first then in 2weeks they will not look as boxy and will drop just a little. My left one is bigger than my right too. It wasn't like that before the surgery. But it is now. So I'm just going to wait and see how it looks in 2mths. It takes a long time to develop the actual size. Your breast looks amazing!!!! I love it!! The final outcome is going to be even better ! I"m still wear my zip up in front sports bra, but I hope to go bra shopping maybe next week.
November 17, 2012
it looks like you are going to heel fast!! When I was heeling for those two weeks post, I was packed up like a piece of meat lmao! and I had to have those drains. But yours look like its going to heel pretty fast.
November 17, 2012
Thanks.....I think he did a good job! but of course they feel so small compare to what i had before! lol...but I cant wait to go bra shopping! and you look great dont look boxy.. you are are going to have so much fun next week shopping!
November 16, 2012
