Loving my body more than ever!

It's actually been 37 days since my surgery and life is good! My boobs are finally starting to feel squishy and more like they're a part of my body. I still sleep on my back just because it feels a little weird to sleep on my side like I used to. I also wear a bra 24/7 because I don't want to get stretch marks or have them sag more than they should. I've received nothing but positivity from people who saw me before and some didn't even notice I had anything done when I wear certain outfits. My right incision has healed well and my left is slowly catching up. My left is 10 days behind since we had to re-open the incision, but I got the stitches out last week and ever since then it has been healing nicely. I still massage my chest every day and I've noticed my right is dropping fast than my left, but only by a little bit. I was cleared to do lower body workouts so I've done basic squats and lunges but I haven't added any weight yet. I've also been making sure to wear sun screen on my chest since the skin is still a little tight.

I added photos and so far I love them!

Yesterday I went to the office to have my 2 week follow-up appointment. I absolutely love the size of my boobs but I noticed that the my left incision wasn't healing as fast as my right. In fact, it looked a little weird like some of the flesh was peeking through! Luckily Dr. Kerr easily diagnosed that I needed to have it re-stitched because it will not heal properly on it's own. I couldn't help but feel guilty, like may I overexerted myself or didn't follow his instructions but he insisted that this just happens sometimes and it is an easy fix.

He asked if I was free to come back in about an hour to do the stitches and of course I wanted to take care of them! That was just enough time for my boyfriend and I to have a delicious lunch at Hopdoddy then head back to the office. Dr. Kerr numbed the area around my left incision with a Lidocaine shot, then cut open all of my existing sutures. I didn't feel any pain but I did feel small tugging at my skin which was a little weird. He did the internal sutures then added external stitches which I will have to get removed within a week or two. Also, he noticed small bumps around my incision which was a sign that I was allergic to the Bacitracin cream I'd been putting on to keep it clean. He's amazing! I never would have known. Dr. Kerr prescribed me a different cream and 10 days of antibiotics (no more happy hours) but I'm really glad he fixed everything so quickly. I have a follow-up at the sister location in South Austin next week, but until then I'm going to rest and stay in the air-conditioning to make sure this time it heals perfectly :)
