day 2 and 3
I woke up feeling less tight on upper chest. The hourly gentle stretches instructed by dr such as arm raiser, shoulder pull back shrug and raising angled elbows help greatly. I read many on internet advising against lifting of arms within first week of surgery but it has greatly help me and instantly I feel the tightness lessen. Went back to dr for dressing check and showed how I did my stretches. As a yogi I incorporated some gentle chest and shoulder stretch. By this stage I can lift my arms straight up above my head and even join them in prayer hands. I went for short walk by the beach taking care not to sweat in my dressing. Sleeping is not too good as I woke up a few times and had to reach for another dose of pain killers.
Day 3
I woke feeling the tightness on upper chest are gone and now feeling mostly on lower chest and incision wounds. Feeling energetic went for a short walk again with my dog, made choc chip cookies with kids and grocery shopping. Napped in between but hard to with noisy children. I thought I was doing well but I felt a wall of fatigue hits me in evening. I realized I am on my period as well and my body is on overdrive mode. So early rest for sure.
I continue with gentle stretches and at times I do wonder if I can over stretch to hurt the stitches but I know my body will tell me where to stop. It sure helps to reduce swelling and tightness.

I just completed my BA 2 days ago. It had been something I wanted so long and planned this surgery for 2 years. I am 53kg 165cm really flat no boobs at all. I was never really big boobs girl after breast feeding it has gone even flatter !
I was introduced to motiva by my surgeon and I was given 2 choices of 360 or 425cc. I went for 425cc
I am an advance yogi practitioner my greatest fear is losing my strength and flexibility after years of hard work. I was assured that it will return to me sooner.
Along with surgery I had infra brow and face thread lift 16 threads.
I was super nervous as u can imagine with so many things done together.
After the surgery when I work up my chest felt so tight like collapsing in me. I was told to stretch and I struggled in state of semi unconsciousness I need 5 gentle stretching of chest and immediately felt relieved !
There is a lot of pain and day 1 was spent just taking pain killers and sleep.
