I have natural 34DD breasta. Unfortunately they have always been hanging and sagging even in my teen years. I've always wanted to do something about that. Yesterday I did it! Cross your fingers for a smooth recovery for me! Day one after the surgery leaves me sore and tired but not overly so. Pain rates a 6 on the 10 scale.

Today was definitely a bad day for me. Luckily my nurse called and checked on me yesterday and prewarned me that I would be feeling a bit worse. I started a fever, slept most the day, and had the worst headache ever. I couldn't even begin to concentrate enough to watch tv or use my phone. By the late evening I took an Advil. I didn't want to take the pain meds and the Advil really helped kick my headache. BTW, You can't open pill bottles after surgery! I don't have the strength to do so. Having no kids I've left all pill bottles open for easy access.
I made myself eat some veggies then napped some more. I'm feeling SO much better now.
My breast still feel tight wit a dull pain where the stitches are. I think I'm scaring myself by looking at all of the bad lift stories though (so no more of that!) I'm incredibly swollen, even under my armpits. Pretty sure my belly is swollen as well. I'll post pictures tomorrow! Hopefully I'll feel as good as I do now in the morning.
Crossing my fingers that the worst has passed!

What size implants did you go with?
July 3, 2015
I was going to go with 375cc but I guess I had more natural left with my lift. The goal was to remain a DD. The doctor ended up using a 325cc and a 350cc (my right boob was slightly smaller). I'm glad that he made this call because even though im swollen I can't imagine it being ANY bigger!!

I go for sizing on the 14th. Can't wait to figure that part out. I'm thinking 350-375

You're like my boobie twin! I have natural 32DD that have sagged since I grew them back in middle school! They look very similar to yours and my left is ever so slightly bigger than my right (I can tell by how much pops out of the top of my bras) which I always have to just lift and tuck back into my bra! You look amazing so far and I'm hoping to get results like yours. I'm still unsure if I want to remain a DD or go for a small D larg C. I'm afraid of going too big. Did you get silicone? Under the muscle? High, moderate, low profile? :)

I got moderate silicone under the muscle. Anchor lift. I also didn't want to really have bigger breasts. My goal was to make it look as it usually does underneath clothing. I didn't want it to be obvious I got my breasts done but fortunately in a bra it was never obvious that my breasts hung as much as they did... Now that they are lifted and filled they are only a little bigger (wider)then they would normally look in a bra. I think my doctor got the size spot on.

My history is so similar... Wishing you all the healing vibes too! Your new girls look amazing. Congrats!

I'm sorry your 2nd day was so hard. Did your PS say you could take advil 48hrs post op? I hope u don't let the pain get out of control, there's definitely a reason for those pain pills(but if you're doing well without then yeah). Yes your tummy is swollen, it's pretty common after any medical procedure to have swelling even in your feet.
I agree about reading all of the negative reviews, it can really make you nervous about things you shouldn't worry about. I had a full anchor lift 7/14 with augmention 425cc Mod plus silicone under muscle & I ended up having a revision on my rt breast & that implant is 450cc Mod plus silicone on 7/6/15.
I'm hoping it will help with the projection, as well as evening me out.
It's definitely a journey & a lifetime commitment. I wish I had of found this sight sooner, I found it 48hrs before my 1st surgery. I would of gone with 500cc's HP...that's ok, I'll see what happens in the future. All my best & wishes for a speedy recovery xoxo

Images. Looks funny from the side view but I think when the swelling starts to go down and the impants drop it's going to look great.
