41 yo Mom to four fixing what nature forgot

Two months post op. Feeling good, they are settling in and feel like me! I've discovered I like bra shopping now, because I have choices I never had before. Dr. Smith was awesome. He listened to what I wanted and I now have the breasts mother nature forgot to provide. Went with Allergan Inspira 485 cc SRM

I have been asked to share my recovery story. The first day I felt a lot of pressure, like when my breasts were engorged after having my kids. I had tenderness across my chest (my implants are under the muscle) and my incisions hurt (in the crease). My boobs looked really high and I was worried they would stay that way even though I had been told/read they would not. I also had thoughts that I went to big, and might have made a mistake. Sort of "post surgery blues" that lasted a couple days. As I began to feel better, I felt better about my decision.
After a couple days the pressure and soreness eased, but I definitely felt the stretching of the muscle where it attached to my sternum (bone in center of chest). I was frustrated because I have a very physical job and hated having to be patient and wait for healing before I could lift. Day 3 was probably my worst day as far as pain went. Sleeping in an inclined position made my back hurt. I ended up in the recliner for several days. I also discovered "morning boob" is real and ice packs are your friends. My first checkup with the doctor went well, and I have healed nicely. My scars are now smooth and pain free. They are still red-ish pink, but I'm told they will fade with time.
I no longer have pain, but do notice my muscle tighten over my implants when I pull the overhead chain to open the dock doors at work. It doesn't hurt, but its a weird sensation.

When I was sharing my recovery story, I forgot to add a picture. I can't figure out how to add it afterwards, so I will post it here. I do not have a before picture to share. Here are photos from one month and two months post.
