Growing up, I was borderline anemic
2 weeks post op!
Having some "pinching" in my left boob but the doctor said that was normal to have. I can also feel that my left side is more "free" like I can move it a bit more and it's a bit softer than my right side, which I've heard can be because I'm right handed and using that side/muscle more, it'll take a little longer to drop and soften than the other.
Super super SUPER happy with them and my results so far and have been lucky to have a very level headed recovery. I've heard it's normal for women to have up and downs, negative thoughts and doubts about getting them done or size they got after/ during recovery but it's been peachy and easy - not sure if it's the doctor or the way the meds were divided and timed out or what, but super happy and can't wait to compare a 6 week or 3 month photo to my first!

Sizing, Consultation and Post-op
My doctor couldn't have been more helpful. He gave me a few sizers and we discussed what would be proportionate (since I want to keep natural but I also wanted a "happier" set after breastfeeding two years in a row).
We decided on about 220-240cc of the "gummy bear" implants because those are specifically made for those who have very little tissue (which after these babies was near nothing). Having a certain amount of days between my sizer try ons and surgery, of course I did the crazy thing and went all over the internet and wondered if I should be doing 350 or more... not taking into consideration that I am more petite and small framed. I am 5'2 108lbs. I measure about 26.5" around my ribs and 25" around my waist. We got to surgery day and I told him whatever he decides, I have full trust and faith in what he thinks is best as he already knows what I'm going for, what I hope for, our end goal. I never showed "wish pics" as he really seemed to know exactly what I was looking for just from our discussions. Coming out of surgery, I just couldn't be happier. I am thrilled already and it's only day 2 of recovery. I feel like I'm capable to do more things but I was advised not to, and to keep my arms in and live the trex life for a little longer and it's honestly helping so much more. A lot less of the "extreme workout pain" and I'm just beyond ecstatic with the whole outcome.
