In loooove with having breasts!! They still have some progress to be made, they still have the insisions and some remaining glue that I'm terrified to remove in fear of opening healing skin. I haven't been able to wear any femeninity tops or bras as I'm still in surgery bras and sports bras and the wide straps and bandages don't allow any showy tops. Regardless, I love having them. 86.6 lbs.

Day 10 post op Breast Augmentation
I did have to get on a double strength antibiotic last time I saw the Dr. I had some VERY tender skin at the insisions more on one side than the other. I was given a 2nd surgery bra and the nurse showed me how to put the padding in to better protect the insisions. It is simply using a total of 4 5x9 pads (2 on each side. One gets laid down lengthwise over the incision so that a small amount of the pad hangs under the bottom of the bra and the second pad is opened up and laid overlapping that so that it's covering the nipple and adding a second layer to pad the incision. The new bra also fit more comfortably than the 1st one. Driving is becoming easier. I have driven with the chest strap behind myself and only the waist one on. Skin is really acting up on my face from the meds? (I assume) new sensations are tightness at the stitching under breasts that initially were just at the insisions and then from the insision to the nipple area or up the lower poll, but the top hasn't been sore or painful at all. Initially very firm, and gradually, without massage, they have been softening. I did an awfully idiotic thing the other day. My husband had dropped a bale of hay in with the goats and pig and they used it to get on and jump out onto the back patio and then front yard, so I went checking fences to see how they'd escaped and found the hay bale by the patio, so I stepped down into it to move it away from where they could get out and they hopped down in with me. At that point I realized that was their stairway, but it had been mine too and now I had a porch that's about 4 feet off the ground and no stairs to get back up and surgery is only just over a week old at this point. So... I put one leg up on the patio which requires a tippitoed stretch and then try to control the kick off with the grounded leg so that I hoist/ catch and bear weight on my arms as little as possible. Sooo dumb. It didn't hurt, and thankfully I'm light, but it was really scary. Sleeping at night has been becoming more uncomfortable and I'm sleeping very lightly. I'm not in pain. I'm just not comfortable. Getting out of bed is still a challenge physically trying not to use my arms, but it's becoming easier. I've just been cleared to start sleeping flat so that may make it harder again. We shall see!!

I am SOO grateful for this doctor!! I'd readily recommend him ! The drive is incredibly long for me, but the care is unparalleled. Professional, knowledgable, KIND (which is huge in this industry) readily responds to questions and concerns. I'm only just one week post op but very confident in his choices and surgical artistry.
