Hey ladies thanks for the comments. I'm doing pretty good. The pain isn't as bad as I thought it would be. But I will tell you this I'm itching like crazy. I think I'm getting a cold. Yesterday was shower day it didn't go as planned my bandages were held down with sterile strip tape. My mom was a nervous wreck trying to help me but she tried. I think I called my doctor a few times yesterday, everything seems good so far. I did wake up this morning with bad neck pain for sleeping with my head on one side.I'm so ready for these drains to come out. Ladies I've been to nervous to go with out the bra later I will take pictures

Hope that you are still feeling well. I am 42I and I want a reduction so badly. I have ever since I was a D in 9th grade. Three kids and each time they got larger. How small will they take them? My dream is a B, but I have had people tell me that a surgeon wouldn't take them that small.

Suzlee01 the doctors will only make them proportionate to your body mass ect. ... I'm not sure what size I'am yet, But I think I'm a 34 c

Oh, and have you seen the list from the "Q&A" questions on here? They have a list on the right side of sizes, etc.

Surgeon has to consider the size of the base of the breast to keep it looking as natural as possible and keep good blood supply. I'm 200lbs and was a 40i and my base would never fit a B cup. I think once my swelling goes down I will be a D-DD cup. Which if you think about it is 7-8 cup sizes down. I'll take it! Trust me going from that big to a d cup is like having tiny boobs! Check out my review. I've had some ups and downs but nothing that would change my mind!

My apologies to you IBTC. I didn't have you in my bookmark list. But, you're there now. And yours is definitely one of the most informative reviews on here. Extremely helpful. You and peediewife are the two I go to most.

If you are itching badly at only 3 days post op you may well be allergic to the dressings and tape

It is best to get off all pain meds as soon as possible, I was fine without after 28 hrs. Antibiotics can be nasty though.

Peediwife I'm off the pain meds. .. they didn't give me no antibiotics the surgery went well only thing I don't like is that there is no communication between the doctors. Only thing I knew to really do drain I think is crazy
