6 weeks! When can I get a massage?!
WORTH IT$6,240
My boobies are six weeks old today! I don't think there have been any huge changes in the last week. It does seems like the swelling in the upper area has gone down.
My right nipple is still lower and I really don't feel like there has been any change in the firmness. I have not been great with my massages this week so all that's probably my fault.
I am adding a scar pic. I think they look okay...not really sure :/ they are laying really nicely in the crease so you can't see them unless I lift up my breast. You can see the asymmetry in the nipples in the pic.
I am dying for a massage! I usually go at least a couple times a month so I am missing it big time. I forgot to ask my PS at my last appointment but I wonder if anyone can tell me when they went after their BA? I'm not sure when we are allowed to lay on our stomach.

I will be interested to find out about the massages because I go pretty often too and that's been something I've wondered. I can ask at my pre-op next week but I'd be curious to hear more than one opinion. Let me know what your surgeon's office says if you ask!
My next appointment is the beginning of next month, I will let you know!
Do you have a before and after pic comparison? Also, what were your measurements before? Do you have a recent photo? I am getting mine done in a week and we have similar stats! So excited! :) Hope you are happy with your results!

Bra size!
I had a post-op appointment yesterday. My PS says everything looks great, I just need to get more vigorous with my massages to help bring my right implant down more. He also confirmed I do still have swelling and he expects things to still change quite a bit. I will go back in a month.
I couldn't help myself and today I went into Victoria's Secret! I a measured as a 34DD! It seems insane that I was an A before. I bought 4 bras, of course I can't wear any of them for a week, but I was just way too excited :) I love the way they look in bras and how my shirts fit with a bra. I am just feeling really happy today (finally lol)! :D

Love all the bras--especially the lightly lined plunge!
I also need to start vigorous massages... but I feel like I already forgot his examples of how to do it. So I am basically just squeezing and pushing them all over! lol
Congrats on the fun new bras. I haven't gone into VS yet, but I think I will have to head in there pretty soon.

That's basically what my massages are...push them up, push them down, squeeze them together :)
Thanks! It's so fun trying on bras now.

I can't wait to go bra shopping yours look amazing!
My PS said to wait until 3 months... Gutted. But I guess the wait will be worth it x

I'm not actually certain that I'm allowed to wear them yet...some paperwork said 6 weeks that my PS gave me but so far everything on that sheet has been incorrect so I will definitely check before I do. I don't want to risk doing any damage and I feel like there are different rules for UHP...

4 weeks and feeling impatient
My random boob related thoughts today....
*When are they going to drop?! I know I have UHP so they won't drop as much as others but there still seems to be some swelling which gives me weird cleavage.
*I am also concerned about how bras will fit. I am hoping they are going to soften up much more and that will help but they just seem so firm in shape and like they won't mold to a bra easily.
*My right was always the tighter one but the last week I have noticed my right had softened up a great deal and my left is firmer! I know massage helps but I just wish I could speed this part up and get to my end result!
*My incision tape came off today. The scar length is shorter then I expected which is great but they are kind of red, raised a bit, and still hurt. I put on scar away strips just because it felt weird not to have anything on them. I hope they improve.
I tried on a 36c bra today from my old breast feeding days. I've since lost 30lbs, which was partially why I had no boobs, so I am actually a 32 band now so I figured this was equivelant to a 32DD. It fit ok...not sure if I will end up needing a DD or DDD. I will find out in two more weeks!

Im 4 weeks along with my UHPs too and mine are still pretty firm. They've dropped a lot but still have a little way to go. My incisions are also raised and lumpy. Seems like all of this stuff is totally normal. I know exactly how you feel so just know that you are not alone. The next couple of weeks seem to be a big turning point judging by other reviews so you wont have to be patient for too much longer now.
Your side boob looks amazing! you definitely have more definition on the sides than i do at the mo :-) x

Thank you! It's definitely nice to know I'm not alone :)
I love finding others with UHP that are further along than I am (currently 2.5 weeks post op) I am having a hard time being patient for them to drop and fluff and glad to hear this is normal! Don't you wish we could time travel into the future a few months!? :) I will be following your progress. You are looking good.
Me too or any UHP review! I would love to fast forward through this part but it's definitely nice to know I'm not alone :) I will follow your progress too and thank you!
Lovely flattering size on you and great side boobage! :-)
I had UHPs 15 weeks ago, love them! Theres not many uhp reviews on here so it's nice to see yours :-)

Thank you! :) I am so glad to see your review, it's so hard to find anyone with UHP.
Yours look amazing!

Hope you're enjoying your new figure, I look forward to seeing your progress.
And thank you :-) the first 6 weeks fairly dragged as I was looking for changes every time I passed the mirror ;-) but now times flying!

I think your scar looks really good! It's flat, great placement and super straight. Once redness goes away a little more you'll never notice it!
I haven't heard anything about massages -- I was told I am free to sleep on my stomach but that isn't the same as someone pressing down on your back while you lay on stomach. I'll be interested to hear what you find out!
