28 Yrs Old, 325cc/350cc, Mentor Mod+ Silicone

So after a bit of dropping, I've posted an update. They definitely don't look any smaller, but they feel smaller? I added some photos with a sports bra on because without something on, the camera makes them look smaller than how they are in real life. They feel gigantic to me, like I have to use a whole hand to grab one. lol keep in mind I used to be able to just use my palm only, so this honestly takes adjusting to. One of my FAVE sports bras to hang out in when I'm not sleeping in my Under Armour Protegee is the Under Armour Plunge sports bra! I just got it in a small and it fits perfectly. SO comfy with very light covers so that your nips don't surprise everyone.

Nothing new has really happened. Week 3 felt the same as week 2 but I still have a slight bit of morning boob in lefty. Not sure why the right one doesn't considering it is the bigger implant.

In week 3.5, you'll see in the photo that it's obvious the right one is dropping slower. I admit I freaked out a little and massaged it much more but then you can see in week 4, both are at the same level. I suppose since I'm right handed it's easier for me to absent mindedly massage the left one more.

I have to admit that I ended up with the case of the booby blues and was super worried I had gone too big. I knew it would take time, but obviously growing up without boobs and then having them the next day is just ridiculously hard to adjust to. Thank you for letting me rant & fret to you ladies!

With that in mind, I realized as the swelling went down, my fears diminished and I am as happy as ever with my new boobs. I've decided to post photos because it gave me so much comfort to be able to read other people's journeys here on RS. I've posted my post op, week, 1 and week 2 photos. Those long wires are NOT my nipple hairs! lol it's the suture that I was able to take out yesterday. The swelling definitely went down on the side boob area and I think that's what is making me happier. I just felt so wide, but now that I look at the photos, the boobs really are proportional to what I was looking for.. still could've gone down 25-50cc's but we'll see what happens in week 3! My right boob is the one with the 350cc and the lefty is the one with the bruise next to the nipple at 325 cc. The right one is dropping a little slower than the left.

Week 2: Boobs are definitely softer but I now get those zings and am a bit more tender as the nerves come in. Not much more to add.

Hi Ladies! Days 4-8 were somewhat of a blur. I went back to work on day 7 and everything was fine. I have more of a sit-at-your-desk job where the most I have to do is run in and out of meetings. The heaviest thing I have to lift is my laptop which is only 3 lbs. I've reduced everything in my work bag to necessities so that it all weighs under 5lbs (including laptop). I do carry everything with 2 hands. Outside of work, I only carry my cellphone, keys, and wallet in a super light clutch. Here's a quick run down of my stats:

Height: 5'3"
Weight: 110 lbs
Initial Cup Size: 34 AA (32A size at Victoria Secret)
Implants: Mentor MemoryGel 350cc (R) 325cc (L)
Implant Diameter: 12.5 cm (R) 12.3 cm (L)
Implant Projection: 3.9 cm (R) 3.8 cm (L)

I put in the diameter and projection because it's important to understand that every implant brand has a varying measurement. For example, if you're looking at a RS review and Sientra or Naturelle implants were used, they will have a different projection and diameter at the same CC as mine.

I'm getting happier everyday that the swelling goes down. I have to admit when I first saw them, I wasn't so happy because I thought they were too big. I'm still hoping they go down in size further because I am into the leaner look. I probably should've emphasized a smaller C-Cup but only had a couple of seconds with Dr. Kim beforehand. Either way his work is gorgeous and I won't get stuck on their current size because I know they still have to F&D. It's best to go into these surgeries without freaking out a week or two after. When you do your research and pick a board certified physician with post-op results that you're in love with, trust that it only takes time to get there.

Days 4-8: Waking up with morning-boob sucks. Walking still hurts after about 1-2 hours and then I get tired and want to lay in bed. I finished my antibiotics on day 7. Pro-tip: Write down the times you took the antibiotic on a piece of paper so you properly space out times, otherwise you're going to forget when to take the next one. Dr. Kim had me start to massage them on day 4 so i started off light and researched online what kind of massages to do. At one week, I started to get more aggressive. I saw Dr. Kim for a quick one-week check in and everything looks great. He told me I could start light exercise with lower body at 2-3 weeks. I can't wait to go back to high-intensity work outs! So tired of not being able to go to the gym.

Things I actually did use that I bought pre-surgery:
Metamucil - Fiber :)
Straws - I stopped after day 3 though
Dried Fruit Snacks - Just to pass the time and honestly, snacking is just fun

Useless items that now clutter*:
CVS "Peas" cold packs - Never had a need to ice
Heating pads for back - Did not need this, my back wasn't sore at all from sleeping with high pillows
*I'm starting to think my pain tolerance is very high though, so do take this with a grain of salt.

Still not comfortable showing photos online, but when I took a body photo, my boobs are definitely in proportion to my body and very much like the wish boobs I brought to him. Ladies going to Dr. Kim - make sure the wish boobs you bring him on surgery day are an exact want! He'll deliver as close to possible in relation to your body shape :)
