Post op Day 6
WORTH IT$6,518
Feeling much better today after a decent night of sleep. Other than a pretty constant tightness in my left breast at the top left, feeling somewhat normal finally! Tried on a few old bathing suits today and loved how they fill the tops now with no padding at all. Such a crazy feeling. Feeling great about how they are looking. Can’t wait for first post op appt on Friday to see what I am clearer to do. Getting antsy being home.

Wow!!!! You look amazing!!!! It looks like you've had them longer than only one week! I'm hoping mine will drop into place more soon. At two weeks mine are still pretty high

Thank you so much! I think yours look AMAZING! Today was the first time I actually wished I’d gone a bit larger! Maybe I’m just getting used to having them already… I also removed all padding from my sports bras, so maybe it’s just not that big of a difference of what I used to pad in there, you know ;)
How are you feeling?? Sleeping well?

Day 5 Post Op
Am totally off the heavy duty pain meds (oxy) and just on Tylenol for the last 24 hours. Sleeping was tough… called doc to see if I can maybe just get a few nights of sleeps meds to help for now. During the day I’m fine. Struggling not to exercise at all, as my mental health relies on it. Hoping to at least be able to walk a few miles a day soon. Will have to wait until my first followup this Friday.
Tried on a few dresses and tops without padding today and LOVE the feeling and look.

Day 3 post op
Was nauseous the majority of the day yesterday, which was awful. I think I may have done too much the previous day w laundry and dishes - hard not to do anything w 4 kiddos!
Still didn’t sleep well - waking for meds every 4-6 hours.
Showered and was able to wash my hair for first time since surgery and that felt amazing. Made it to church w the family and to our family Sunday dinner - chose a sweater that hid everything well and no one noticed at all. I haven’t told many people at all - including close family.
However, replacing all the padding I was using w the implants isn’t that big of a difference w a baggy shirt/sweater on, which I love.
I was going for a natural look like I had before breast feeding the kids, and I’m so happy about the results thus far!

So when I called the doc to talk about sleep meds, they just automatically called in a refill on the oxy and didn’t bother to call me back :( so The last 2 nights I’ve been taking one just before bed. Helps a bit until I wake about 3am - so I take a Tylenol then.
I have my post op tomorrow, so if I don’t sleep well again tonight I will ask about sleep meds. What has helped you the most w sleeping??
