2 weeks post op, couldn't be happier!

I had my 2 week post opp today, finally got the tapes removed of my incisions.. So so happy with how things are progressing, have seen a fair bit of change in the last week and can feel my tissue and skin getting firmer by the day.
My incisions look so good, they actually look like they will be smaller then the original ones and sit on my crease so far which is great. My surgeon has advised to massage the incision twice a day with bio oil so I have started that today.
Recovery has been pretty good so far, I barely feel anything, it's only really if I do sharp movements or lift my arms too high that I can feel a bit of pain,
I have been taking things pretty easy though, I still haven't lifted my son out of his bed so it's been pretty hard in that respect as I've had to have help with caring for him up until now. My surgeon thinks I should still give it another week before lifting him or anything heavy so while my husband is at work I will stay with my parents for another week, I feel like I could def lift him but I figure I've been so careful until now so what's another week, better to be safe then sorry!
I bought some cute sportsbras this week (have been back to gym- just lower body for the first time yesterday, I took it really easy, just feels so good to actually do some sort of exercise!) and I know it's way to early to buy a proper bra but I did try a wonder bra on just to see and I was pleasantly surprised at how it looked on!
Big boobs are so over rated, so glad I did this!!!
I'll post some pics of the sports bras and bra I tried and will take some more pics of incision etc tomorrow to post.
Still wearing the compression garment and will continue to for a few more weeks.

Little boobies everywhere

My best friend dropped into visit today and brought me done trashy mags to read, was do appropriate, flat beautiful woman everywhere!

Grateful to be on the other side!!

It feels amazing to finally be on the other side!! A weight has well literally been lifted of my chest, a whole 470cc's worth! How did I carry those things around with me for so long??
My surgery went really well. It was a long day though as I had to fast from 7am- I had to be at hospital at 1pm, unfortunately my surgeon was running behind time and I didn't actually go into surgery until about 4:30pm... I'm grateful my husband spent the day waiting with me and keeping me calm!
I freaked out and wanted to run out of there when they finally came to take me to theatre, once I got there and after a few tears I was fine and ready to kiss the girls goodbuy.
I woke up from surgery feeling great. My surgeon removed the implant only as my capsules were only thin, he told me that one implant ruptured on removal as it was in very tight. He said they were becoming worn and thin and were definately ready to be out of my body which reinforces the fact that I've made the right decision.
I'm very small and a little tender, especially on the incisions but I can honestly say that when I looked down and in the mirror and felt my very own tiny breasts again I felt nothing but refreshed and relieved to be little old me again! I was truely terrified that I would freak out and hate my reflection but it's the complete opposite. I'm so glad I did this!
I'm still resting up in hospital, I'm getting very well looked after by the nursing staff and chose to stay an extra night as I have a young son at home and the extra rest away will do my recovery the world of good.
I pray that I'm mentally this strong when I actually get home and face the world. I need to remember head high, shoulders back and be proud of my body and not to care about what any body else thinks or says.
I'm to wear my post opp garment for 4-6 weeks, it's going to be tough to dress nicely over this thing- they are very tight and just flatten the little tissue I'm left with but it's just got to be done!
Will take done more pics and update again when I get home!
