3 months & In love!
WORTH IT
It's almost been 3 months since my surgery. I'm feeling great the recovery has been easy and I'm in love with the size.
I'm down to massaging once a day, usually when I get out of the shower. I'm regaining sensation at the bottom portion of my breast (near and above scar area). Regaining this sensation has been since the surgery date. It felt like novocaine when it wears off. I could touch the area, I knew something was pushing on it, but I couldn't feel slighted sensations like my nail touching it. It's coming back slowly, I'm not 100% yet, but I know it will get there. I've not had really any "zing-ing sensations others have mentioned.
I wear non padded, no wire bras or little camisoles with the built in self bra.
The weather is getting nicer, so I've been slowly introducing them to the world. It's been very strange for me to get compliments on my breast. I recently attended a black tie wedding. My gown was really beautiful and complimented my new breasts perfectly. The bride came over multiple times throughout the night to compliment my breasts (She's unaware I had surgery). We met last winter when I was able to hide my very small chest under uber padded bras, big sweaters and chunky knit scarves! I'm looking forward to my first beach day! ????

Boob selfies are way more difficult than I imagined...
Feeling great. Tomorrow will be one week post-op. Only taking an ibuprofen if needed. I think I'm doing too much, as today I was a bit sore. I think they are starting to drop. They're becoming softer. I am in love with my look and very happy with my choice to go with 550cc and 600cc HP. I was having doubts the night before surgery. I kept telling myself to go 500cc MP because I'd always been so small I felt less nervous of going too big...if that make any sense.

You're looking awesome! I just had mine done with Dr. Seckel yesterday. I'm sort of worried I went too big, too. I'm an impatient person and want them to look normal NOW, haha. I'm interested to see how you progress.
Thanks so much.
It was my first thought too. I had been going back and forth between 500/550 and 550/600 and decided on the bigger of the two. Being so small to begin with I thought I wouldn't be too upset if they were too small but I'd be almost in shock if they were too big. I am certain I made the right decision. They are looking and feeling great. I just had my two week follow up Wednesday and got the green light.
Hope you're feeling better too!!
Just had my surgery as well. Boob selfies are way harder than I thought they would be! Hopefully gets a little easier!
Right!! I totally need a selfi stick lol hope you're on the mend and loving them!!

Feeling great. Trying to stay quiet and not do too much. I've been walking a lot which feels great. My husband takes our dogs and we walk briskly. I keep my hands in my pockets to reduce arm movements. I feel best when I don't wear a bra. It feel less constricted. My surgeon said I could continue to wear the surgical bra or go without whatever felt best. They encourage going braless if it agrees with you.
