2 month mark!

Hey all! I just reached the two month mark a few days ago and wanted to post an update! Yesterday was my first day back at the gym and although I feel great, I was a bit scared to do much. Thankfully my trainer also has implants so she guided me through and provided some alternative exercises to not put too much stress on my chest.
I have yet to get sized but I believe I am a 34 C (going off an old bra I was conned into buying once but was never able to wear lol) The plan is to go this weekend and try on a few different sizes.
Overall I feel back to normal! I feel great but I will say, those few days where the muscle was stretching and accommodating the implant were rough. I freaked out a bit but once that sensation went away, the girls started to feel like part of me. I have been diligent with the scar gel and I swear by it! My scars are barely noticeable! I’m glad I decided on the areola now. Let’s see if there are any more changes to their look going forward!

1 Week PO

Hey everyone! Yesterday was my week-iversary with the new ladies. I went in for my follow up today and the doctor said everything is looking great. I only took painkillers the first two days and after that just Advil or Tylenol sporadically when I felt I needed it. Most of the swelling has gone down so I think this is their size, I just can’t wait until they “drop & fluff” as they say since the goal is for them to look as natural as possible. I will say, after the swelling initially went down, I felt a little bit of the boob greed everyone refers to but now that they’ve been consistent for several days, I think the size is just right! I have been feeling some extra tightness the past two days, especially on the left boob (my dominant side) but the doctor said that’s all normal. Drove a little bit for the first time today to treat myself to some chick-fil-A and get out of the house for a bit lol. I do feel a bit useless at times and really miss the gym but patience is key for the best results!

Day 1 Post Op, 310CCs

Good morning everyone! I had my BA Thursday 10/8. Let me tell you, the night before the surgery was an absolute whirlwind. I suffer from generalized anxiety so the irrational fears and thoughts were taking over! Thankfully I have some of the best family and friends surrounding me and they helped me get through it! Morning of, I was feeling good but the moment I got on the table and they put the IV in, I was ready to rip it out and run away! As far as sizing, I was in between 310CCs and 330ccs, ultimately we decided on 310 as the doc said 330 would put me at like a D cup which I think is too unnatural for my frame. I figured if I want them to look bigger at any point, that’s what Victoria’s Secret is for lol.
I cannot tell you how glad I am that I was brave and did not quit. Dr. G and his staff were absolutely exceptional from beginning to end. I felt like family by the time the surgery was over. I’m uploading some progress pics, I still cannot believe they look this good already the day after surgery, it can only get better from here! Today is day 2 post op and I’m feeling a bit more pain around the rib cage/where the bruising is but nothing I can’t manage. I’m a stomach/side sleeper so I’m counting down the days until I don’t have to sleep upright! Other than that, I am so happy!
I will continue my updates in hopes that my journey with BA while suffering from anxiety can help anyone out! Stay tuned!
