Breast Augmentation, 36yo, 275 cc, Natrelle SSM, Moderate Profile, Caucasian, 5’7” 120lbs

Breast Augmentation, 275cc, Natrelle SSM, Moderate Profile, White Caucasian, Female, 5'7", 120lbs Small implants with perfect proportional results that fit my body and chest. Cording to the Natrelle sizing chart, my width (11.5cm) across my chest matched with the 275cc implant suggested.

Day 1: Feeling sore but not too bad. My surgeon gave me the numbing cream that goes inside of your breast pocket to help the initial soreness for the first 2 days. I've been alternating Valium to relax the muscles and Oxycodone for the pain.

Feeling: super excited and pleased. I thought they would be bigger, so like all the other women have said, I could've been just as happy at 300cc or 310cc. Than being said, I'm obsessed it's my new titties!

Day 1 - Surgery

* Was a bit nervous and kind of grumpy because my surgery didn’t start until 3. I couldn’t eat or drink all day. I went through 3 bags of saline in my IV - very dehydrated. Made me super puffy and bloated post surgery.

* I started to get a little nervous when I walked into the operating room but the anesthesiologist gave me the drugs almost immediately and I was out.

* I woke up in post op very groggy but kind of energetic.

* I dozed off and on for the next few hours and ate some soup, crackers and a popsicle in between.

I ate ramen and ate that around 8:30/9. I was definitely hungry after not eating all day. We went on a walk - just a block and then walked back.

* Felt sore and was a little surprised my boobs looked smaller than I thought. I’m hoping they settle and drop into a bigger shape and size. Otherwise, I may get bigger ones in the future.

* We went to bed and woke up 2 times for medicine and to move around. I ended up waking myself up to move around and meds around 4 am.

* Valium feels really nice and helps to relax my muscles. Oxycodone gives me some relief from the pain and soreness.

* Pain is maybe a 3 to 4 with a lot of soreness. Took Milk of Magnesia before going to bed. No BM

* Woke up around 5a and took some Oxy meds at 5:30a. So far I’m feeling very sore. There was a tiny bit of sharpness of pain in my back left around the outer boob but went away.
* Wedge pillow is key!
* It definitely hurts to open my arms up to the sides.
* I had lots of energy day 2.
* At my follow up appt today, Dr. Z, one of Dr. Deal’s fellows, did my follow up and she said that’s typical to have a lot of energy with all the drugs pumping through my body. Plus, since I went smaller, my recovery isn’t going to be as prolonged or painful as someone who went bigger. We shall see.
* I saw my boobs for the first time during my appt (had to keep my bra on until then) and loved them! They are sitting very high and look great and round and perfect (see photos) but definitely high upper poles and very firm right now. They need to drop and fluff. They are also a little oddly shaped but that’s to be expected.
* They feel super hard and firm. There is no bouncy movement. These girls are strapped in for the next few weeks until they feel ready to settle in to my breast pockets.
* I was on a pretty steady dose of Valium and Oxy, maybe a few 4 hour gaps in between during the afternoon and evening.
* My mom was in town, and my partner and I went to a friend’s birthday party for an hour and then dinner at Alleia. Leaving dinner, I was feeling really tired and sore. It may have been too much within the first 36 hours, but I was excited to these new fun bags out for a ride.
* I took Milk of Magnesia and Ducolax for constipation throughout the day. Had 1 BM and was very bloated but still had a decent appetite.
* Very sore from surgery but felt energetic.
*Took Valium and Oxycodon for the pain.
