Getting back to myself!
Just had my last post-op a few days ago. Doc said that everything looks good and I can FINALLY get back to normal physical activity...I won't lie...taking 5 weeks off exercise was a bummer.
He also said that I should expect them to really drop and fluff over the next couple weeks in particular, with the size/shape setting at around 4 months.
I'm super happy with the size. So glad I didn't get greedy (I was tempted!). After trying on some bra sizes I think I'm either a 34 B or 32 C...but sizes are so inconsistent it's hard to tell. Regardless, I definitely feel like I've got plenty of boob! They're so much softer than they were a couple weeks ago...So glad to be past feeling constantly paranoid that they were going to turn out weird or some other physical catastrophe was going to befall me. And so liberating to have full use of my body without worrying about the incisions opening or muscles tearing!
This site (though frustrating at times due to its technical difficulties) has been so helpful with hearing other women's experiences and watching progress. This journey would have been much more frightening without the community support.
Thanks everyone who's commented/been in touch!! Love at ya!!

Softening and dropping! Loving my results. Less than 1 week till I can go no-bra...couldn't come sooner. I caved and took off my tape at 2 weeks and SO regret it. I had a small opening maybe a quarter of an inch wide along an incision and it freaked me out. Luckily it appears to be superficial and has been healing nicely with topical wound care...this hasn't stopped me from being nonstop paraniod about infection and crazy worst-case scenarios. This site does have some pretty horrific breast-augmentation-gone-wrong stories and photos! I would not recommend exploring those!
Also I've been wanting to mention that I do have mondors cords...also freaked me the hell out because I had no idea what they were at first..but apparently they're no big deal and should clear up on their own. Phew!! All in all it's been a bit of a rollercoaster, but I look forward to stabilizing healing-wise over the next few weeks.

Boobin'
Just over 2 weeks into recovery. Very little discomfort other than the tape itself pulling on my skin if I try to arch my back. I can lift my arms over my head comfortably and sleep on my side...though I'm a little paranoid to do so (thinking that the implants will just sink on down to the side in the night-probably silly, but still!). I do have some nipple/areola sensitivity, but from what I've read that's normal for the first 4-6 weeks. I'm not supposed to take the stupid tape off until I'm 4 weeks in...it's so hard! But my PS tells me this is to prevent a raised scar as well as keep the wound from reopening. It's weird to be getting used to having boobs! Really hoping they'll drop quite a bit more in the next couple weeks here...from what everyone on here says they will but it's hard not to be paranoid about these things. I'm sure people can relate to that. :) And man, I cannot wait to not wear a bra!! I'm supposed to wear one nonstop the first 4 weeks. Is that the same with everyone else?
