counting down everyday til next Fri 12/19. My big day is coming. Nervous n scared as the day is getting closer. I lost 3 pounds within 1 week. So I'm going to have high profile silicon gel, about 32C. I'll talk to my dr again on the surgery day about my size. The surgery will take to 2 hours. Hopefully everything will turns great. :)

Day 1 after my BA on Dec 19, 2014

I had a surgery yesterday at 11am and everything went fine. The nurse allowed me to go home around 3pm because i took extra pain relieve shot. Because my body type is so small so I could only get Moderate silicone implant on my creases 300cc on the left and 275cc on the right. LA traffic was really bad yesterday, so it took me an hour and a half to get home (Rosemead,CA). The first my boy friend did for me was wiping my whole body with baby wipes. Unlike others' people reviews on Realself, Dr.Rahban said no showering for a week, I could sponge bath except my chest area, no taking off the bandage after 48hours and no peeking at all. So I noticed that baby wipes was helpful. Moreover, the pain wasn't bad like I thought, it was more about soreness. I could walk on my own while having my bf help me to get in bed and out, and also sit down and up on the toilet. Whoever wants to have the surgery I'd recommend you guys do the squats, it doesn't just get you a nice- firm butts but it also helps your legs stronger. Why I said that? Because I've been walking in my knees on my bed as soon as my bf helps me sit up. It may sounds weird but Im sure it's less pain than having someone pick you up or drag you out of the bed.
Sleeping on the night was okay except the part when I woke up at 3am. I was barely able to get out of bed because I started feeling the pain after 5hours taking Vicodin-Pain relieve. I know sleeping while you're sitting up is really uncomfortably but it does help you get less pain when you try to get up. So hopefully my experience may get you some ideas or tips to help a little bit.

Damona35: I'm in pain more than last night so I take medications every 4-5 hours and it helps. I'm still be able to walk n use the restroom tho. You need to make sure try not to eat food that thinning out your blood. No dental work( cleaning, root canal,...) before n after the surgery.

I had my ba yesterday too and said the same thing! So happy I have been doing lots of squats and ab work, it would be really hard to move without that!! Hope you are feeling well!

I started stretching on day 3, it actually helped a lot so that my muscles won't get so stiff after all. Sneezing and coughing still hurt me a lot. My upper back also gets better because I've been able to sleep on my back since day 5. And I can do everything by myself except driving. I can't drive for a long distance. The steering wheel seems heavier than I thought. So hopefully I can drive soon.
P/s: here are some of my pics :-)

Please post pics! I am debating whether i should see this dr for a consultation. The fact that his consultation fee is $250 is setting me back.
Did you have a consultation fee when you visited him? Please post pics!
Good luck this Friday! Feel free to introduce yourself to a forum of members also getting their breast augmentation surgery this December 2014. We'll be anxiously awaiting your update!
