3 week drop and fluff progress
3 week up date! Everything feels more comfortable, boobs are softening all the time, the pain and lumpiness on one scar is easing too. Incision sites are looking good, I've been using stratderm gel twice a day which is helping!
Right (dominant) side seems to be dropping quicker than the left! Wearing my surgical bra day and night

2 week post op update after 375cc motiva ergonomix
2 weeks in and they are starting to look/feel better. They have started to soften, I don't take pain killers anymore. The first week was intense and I underestimated the recovery but I'm doing much better now. Slept sort of flat on my back last for the first time! I sleep with many many pillows and it's absolutely the key to finding a comfy spot to sleep in. I'm talking like 6 or 7 pillows, hard and soft and u-shaped! They have made it So much easier to get comfortable when I'm usually a side sleeper.
I still feel the size of implant, or more specifically the projection, is more than I intended. Perhaps that will change as the drop and fluff happens. I can feel them starting to soften up already and I can see in the front facing photo that they are filling out a bit already!
One of my scars has 2 hard lumps underneath it, I took the bandages off yesterday and started to use strataderm silicone gel but I'm not sure how much pressure to apply? The lumps don't feel like collagen and there's not way collagen could grow that size in 2weeks anyway. It's like it's something inside that's been tethered down and stitched into place. I also have pain and discomfort this side only, like something internally is being stretched and pulled, specifically above the scar, not a general pain, it's hard to describe.
Otherwise I am starting to like them, I love how they look in clothes and how they fill out clothes. I've gained 3 inches around my bust since before and after my surgery. Not sure where il end up in bra sizing. Have a spa day coming up in a month and not sure how I can hide these from my family though! Let's see how things settle though.
Those big emotions in the first week post op are very real!! I wish the clinic warns you about them more!

Feel like breast implants are too big
I'm 5days post op, abdominal swelling and discomfort has settled, some firmness starting to go away from the breast area which is a relief as they were hard as rocks. Tapering down on my pain meds. Things are getting easier.
Having a little freak out moment. I know they're high and perky and pointy and I'm good with all that, I know that they'll settle over the next 6months or more. What's getting to me is the volume size. I know there's swelling but is there really THAT much swelling? Everyone tells you they drop and fluff and get BIGGER with the fluff process. I can't handle any bigger, I want them smaller, like maybe 30% smaller! What do I believe? That they're swollen and will get smaller or that they have to settle and fluff so will get bigger? All the drop and fluff photos look like the breasts are bigger in the end up! Less upper volume yes, but as a whole they always seem larger due to the bottom dropping and fluffing out more. How can something fluff and get smaller?
Has anyone had implants and spent the first few months thinking they were huge but then after the settled in they became less volumous?? Or is it that you just got used to them?
Just having a little freak out, all help welcomed!
