Surgery Scheduled!

I have my breast augmentation scheduled for 5/29. So excited! I have had two children. I'm 5'7" and 145lb and I've wanted to do this for several years after basically "deflating" after breast feeding and postpartum weight loss. I'm very active and love to lift weights so this will be a challenge to take a break from that.
I'm going over the muscle with soft touch 450cc silicone implants. My surgeon and I decided on over the muscle due to my activity and weightlifting and also a speedier recovery
I'd love to hear from some women with similar builds and also would love some recommendations on supportive sports bras and things you thought was important to have post op that I may not know :) My pre op is tomorrow . Getting more excited every day! *look over the sunburn. Pool day with the kids got me!*

I’m excited for you! So my must haves were laxatives, the meds you will take post surgery will make painfully uncomfortable so trust me on the laxatives. Bendy straws, a breast band especially since you are going above the muscle it will help your breast drop. Plenty of button up shirts. (You can’t lift your arms for weeks. My dr said 4 but listen to yours) compression socks, order nice ones from amazon. The only the dr gives you aren’t comfortable and you will need to wear them a few weeks so just order a pak. I got 3 I believe. A travel pillow (not necessary but did help me) if you don’t have a recliner and plan on sleeping in bed. That’s all I can thank of at the top of my head. Good luck!! Keep us posted.

Day 1 Post Op

Day1 post breast augmentation! Everything went great! The pain has been tolerable. Mostly soreness and very tight. My left breast and under my arm is much more sore than my right and has more bruising underneath. The incisions look great but No one warned me how bad taking the tegaderms off in the shower would hurt! Ouchhhh! But felt great to shower and applied my ointment. Been resting a lot. Definitely in love with my new boobs and it's been totally worth it!
