Deflated breastfeeding A cup to 400 cc journey

I had my consultation with Dr. Waldrop in I believe in September 2022. I have wanted a breast augmentation for a long time, since teenage years and I am 31 now. After breast-feeding two kids, my self-confidence in my chest, only seemed to get worse. I am 5'7 & on average what about 100 and 115 pounds. Most of my life I was smaller than that & I've just never felt womanly or desirable. At the consultation, both the nurses and the doctor were very kind to me, and never made me feel insecure, just very professional, which I very much respect. By all means I like to goof off and joke around but it was a great mix because I'm not looking for a friend. I'm looking for a surgeon and someone who can lead me in the right direction.

Originally, when I went in for the consultation, I went and saying I wanted something natural looking . But I found out fairly quickly that I didn't want a natural look by a doctor's perspective because with the width of my chest ( 10.5 cm )and with a high profile it was only suggesting roughly around 225 cc which just wasn't my desired look.

After the consultation, I knew I was sold on doing it, and proceeded to figure out a date and get started.

My surgery went perfect, it was a very quick process and I left the doctors office actually feeling pretty good. Just some tightness in my chest.I went home and basically laid around all day and walked every two hours around the house. I enjoyed getting up and walking around. I thought it felt best, and even though I have yet to learn the massaging techniques, I have found that I like massaging my breast because it does feel a lot better when I do that.One thing I wasn't aware of is that sometimes you can have a little bubbles by your implants/pockets as things are moving around and getting adjusted. I read that this is normal and should go away during the fluffing process but it was definitely something I did not know before hand and somewhat startled me. I can also make little fart noises when you move. Haha that part scared me.I don't know how people are sleeping. Ever since surgery I slept a total of six hours and it is now the morning of day two. It's not necessarily that I'm in pain. It's more or less just a lot of discomfort and tightness in my breast. Right now I'm just trying to be extremely gentle and follow everything they tell me to do to hopefully get the best possible outcome.Overall, I would say I'm surprised that I'm not feeling miserable just not comfortable. From what I'm able to see so far I think I'm really gonna like my results. From what I can see right now, I do feel like I could have went bigger, based on preference, but I have a pretty active lifestyle so I'm thinking this is gonna work out exactly how it was supposed to. I'm just happy to feel so much more confident..

Went to my post op appt. Yesterday. Everything seems to be healing as it should. My stitches in my left breast have a lot of bruising (I actually got 350 cc in this breast due to unevenness ) & my sternum but surprisingly it's not causing much pain, just swelling. I alternative the pain meds & Tylenol every 6 hours. I'm actually sleeping a lot now, & I was able to take a shower today which helped with pain in my back from im guessing the added weight. Overall continue to be happy.
