So happy with my results! I’m sharing so I can look back and remember where I started.

7 days ago I had my breast augmentation surgery. I already knew I get nauseous with anesthesia so I told my doctor. I was given a anti nausea patch behind my ear the night before. Then when I got to the surgical center they gave me a anti nausea pill as well. I woke up from surgery without nausea or tears, like I usually do. (YAY) the first day I was very stiff and I couldn’t move on my own very much. My husband alway helped me to the restroom (and wiped he’s a trooper), fed me, held my water while I drank ect. The pain wasn’t too bad probably because I slept most of the day. The second day was pretty miserable. Was still unable to sit up or feed myself, but I kept taking my Valium and oxy so I was still in and out of sleep. The third day was my worst day. I would scream out in pain a lot and spent a lot of the day crying. The third, fourth, and fifth day I would wake up in the middle of the night with level 8 pain behind my left shoulder. I would scream and cry. By day 6 and 7 I am alternating between ibuprofen and Tylenol. I still get pain when I accidentally do something that uses my pec muscles. (Of course) and I’ll randomly get sharp pains but they are like a level 4 or 3. The biggest annoyance is sleeping at night. I usually sleep on my tummy or side and without taking pain pills or Valium before bed it’s hard to sleep or get comfortable. I am looking forward to the day I can sleep on my side! As of day 7 my breasts still have some dropping/fluffing to do but I’m happy with the progress! I also love that I can show off my breasts if I want by wearing a tight or low cut shirt. When I wear my normal clothes they look about the same as before!

They look great! What size were you before? I'm an A cup and so nervous because they suggested 445cc high profile cohesive gel (gummy), but I don't want to be in pain from them stretching so much (going too big).

Thank you so much! My surgeon said I was a C before. I would look at your doctors previous work and see if you like the results! If so I would trust the size they suggest(: Good luck and let me know if you have any questions! I’ll follow you to keep up with your results!

Yes I actually looked at the photo gallery he has, but the results vary depending on the breast tissue/size they started with. I guess my fear, aside from the pain, is them looking super fake since I'm so tiny and have very little breast tissue. My surgery is in May so I still have some time to decide. Also my DR. Injects the breast during surgery with something called Exparel for pain. Have you heard of that? Do you know if they did that for your surgery?

I don’t think my doctor injected Exparel, but I’m not positive! I had a good amount of skin when I pulled on it before my BA, but I was still so sore after 450! My pain tolerance is SO low though. I would look at people on this app starting at an A cup and who go about 445 so you can see what your results will be similar to! I’m sure your results will be beautiful (:
