Not Happy
Work was done poorly. Double bubble on right breast shortly after and CC as well. PS did not give me enough information on my expectations and overall general profiles of BA. The card that was given to me after surgery said a different size than it originally was. I found out after my second BA recently from my plastic surgeon. Maybe, experience was not great because it was done through 3rd party clinic (Beverly Hills Physicians).

Day 17 Post op
Hello ladies. I haven't updated in awhile, since I haven't seen any major changes. I'm almost back to myself 80%, I would say. I returned back to work last week (Day 9 Post op). It was hard! Especially my back. My tummy (stomach virus) is almost back to normal as well. I had my stitches removed this last Tuesday (2 days ago). My doc gave me the okay to start massaging. He was really proud of his work when he saw my girls. Lol! Anyway, here are a few pics.

They are looking so good!! I'm glad to hear your stomach is feeling better. How are you liking the size? I think they look perfect on you.

Thank you! At first I thought they looked too small. Lol. I felt like my wide chest ate all the cc's. But as the days go by they are looking better and are getting rounder, which is what I wanted. I do think the size is perfect. I think of they were any bigger I would probably look like a football player, lol. How are your girls doing? Have you seen any more changes?
November 21, 2015
They really look great! My girls are doing good. Not too many changes really at 6 1/2 months post. Except they are softening soo much! They feel amazing! I really love them!

Silly me! My reply posted above. I'm glad your loving yours, they look wonderful! Did you massage yours alot?
November 22, 2015
I massaged mine more in the beginning, several times a day. I couldn't tell you how many times a day because I feel like I was always touching them and moving them around lol. Now I massage at least once a day, sometimes 2 or 3 times if I think about it.
November 23, 2015
Oh ok. I am not massaging as much as I should, I really don't want them to drop too much, lol. I know every PS is different. I read here on RS that many PS don't recommend massage since they say that the implant falls on its own in the pocket. Who knows!
November 23, 2015
Yeah, I have noticed each plastic surgeon has their own recommendations. My PS wanted me to move them up once and then down once 3 times a day just to keep the pocket open during healing. For a long time I only moved them up and down, though I did it more than 3 times a day because I was paranoid. Then after about the 4-6 week post point I started moving them around more. Now I think it is more just me absent mindedly moving them around out of habit and I call it massaging them lol. I move them up and down and out to the sides a bit. I tend to do it more often when I am about to start my period because I have noticed over the months they get a bit more firm and tender in the days leading up to it and I worry something is going wrong. But then I remember my breasts have always gotten swollen and sore before my period so that's what is going on. I have never thought about my boobs so much in my whole life! lol :)

That's amazing for day 17! They look great too :)
November 22, 2015
I'm happy you love yours because they do look wonderful! Did you massage yours alot?
November 24, 2015
I think I've been moving them more as well, rather than really massaging them. I get really sore boobs too before my period, ugh! Specially the nipples! Lol
November 24, 2015
Yes! My nipples get so sore!! Have you had any numbness on your breasts since going larger?

4&5 Day post op
The pic above was actually one day post. I am feeling better better, nausea is almost gone. I did try to eat solids on day 2 post open and boy did it give my tummy the worst cramps. What I haven't mentioned to you ladies is that before surgery I came down with a stomach virus. I had it for 2 weeks prior to surgery, so I was only able to eat soup, rice and a little chicken. I was also on antibiotics for five days. My stomach started feeling a little better three days before surgery so I thought my body was ready but now I think it's back, I'm a little lightheaded and can't take solids very well without my stomach hurting. I am planning on going back to my general doc on Monday and see what she can do. I think it might be some bad food I ate at some point and it's still stuck on my stomach wall or something. Oh and my lovely period decided to come as well. So I'm also dealing with cramps! Ugh! Anyway I took some pics for you ladies. I have my first post op appt tomorrow. Oh can you ladies also tell me if it's safe to wet the incision stripes? I really need to wash my hair! Thanks you girls and happy healing to you all.

I am so sorry your stomach is reacting to something. Try to take lots of acidophilus to replace the good flora lost from antibiotics and stomach virus. On a great note though your twins have awesome upper pole and the cleavage in pic 5 is spectaular,:))
November 7, 2015
Thank you! I just Google it, is it the probiotic supplement any brand in particular that you recommended?
November 7, 2015
They look fantastic! I'm sorry you are still not feeling well, but I second NewDr.VathFan with the acidophilus! I hope you feel better soon!
