Bruising
Here is the bruising I was talking about. I can't wait for steristrips to come off where my nipples stop pointing down

I want to shop so bad but want to wait until they finish their thing.
Breast augmentation 2 week post op
Today marks two weeks since my surgery. Went like this.
Signed in and all the waivers, decided in the insurance. Paid the money. They called me back. Verified my size, method ect. Took photos. Dr. Hedden came in and talked with me then marked my chest. Asked me if I wanted my surgery on Snapchat. Absolutely! I wanted to see it. Started an iv. Gave me something in iv and walked me back. Held me tight me because the med works fast. I remember laying in table and telling the anesthesiologist that I was excited and have been up since 4am and have been praying for all of them since then. Went to recovery and they woke me up. I can't remember if they have me a pain shot prior to leaving but I remember wanting to ask for one. I was wheelchaired out to my spouse, loaded up in my vehicle. Went home and slept the entire day. My husband checking on me waking me to give medication around the clock as prescribed. I did still have my appetite and ate chicken noodle. The next morning my dad (husband had to work) took me to my follow up appointment. Everything checked out great. They were beautiful! Still out of it, my dad took me out in public for breakfast ???? didn't eat too much. Went home and slept. I slept for like three solid days. With two children (2&4) I probably just needed it. I took pain meds and muscle relaxers as scheduled from Wed-Sun. The Valium is amazing to help me relax my chest! But I had some lucid dreams ???? Kinda moved around quite a bit on the weekend. Went to work on Monday. Stopped all medication and didn't bring it with me. That was a bad idea. I felt bad and hurt. Ibuprofen and Tylenol didn't touch it. Went home and too some meds then went to sleep. Woke up and had a much better day. Had three pain pills total that day. Wednesday until yesterday I had one and it was at the end of the day at bed time.
Today is the first day I actually felt great. I was given a small white binder to wear while up and off when asleep to help them drop. I didn't wear it today and I felt like I could breathe. I have been wearing a shaped cup sports bra with high side support. Looser one throughout day to accommodate the band and my tighter one at night. The sides on the front part of my armpits are raw from band and sports bra 24/7 which makes me sore. I am right handed so the right side hurts worse. I had no medication at all today.
Today I can really tell a difference in the softening and them dropping. I did the nipple approach and I am so glad I went that way. I have not felt any sharp pains or anything. They are numb. With all the muscle pain I don't think I could have handled a knifing pain too. I did have three small bruises pop up recently under my breast that I have no idea how it happened.
It feels weird when I lean over and my right one also when I go to reposition myself.
