425cc Motiva Journey

starting to round, drop, and look a lot more normal. I go back and forth between liking them and wondering if I made a huge mistake. They look very big to me still and I really hope they won't look this big when they are done settling. But overall very glad they are starting to look more round! Will probably feel better about them once I can workout again and feel good in my skin. You can see in 3 week photo there's still quite a big of swelling on top and sides. It's still nearly impossible to shave under my arms.

Recovery has been hard mentally. Up until today (9th day) I had very little ability to do anything and arm movement is still very limited. It’s hard to need help with everything and I think the pain meds affected my mood and emotions. Overall I’m really happy with the size and how I think they’re going to look. I’m just super anxious about them dropping and settling properly and they’re hard to look at right now because they’re quite squarish and the right one is sitting a little bit higher. I’m trying to put that out of my mind but it is unsettling. Overall just trying to manage my anxiety about everything and just be patient. Pain has been minimal the last couple days, especially today. I walked over a mile and kept my heart rate below 103 so I’m hoping I didn’t overdo it. I just really needed to get out of the house and move around because of the post op blues as they call it. Finally feeling more like myself today, still can’t wash my own hair or brush it which has been massively annoying as my bf is confused by all of this and despite doing his best, can’t even manage to put my hair in a bun. Ugh. But it’s getting better each day and I have a post op appt in 6 days- really hoping for positive feedback on how things are looking.

Been applying lots of bio oil and impatient for drop and fluff. I think the size is good for my body and I’m feeling glad I went with round motiva for the upper pole fullness. Surgical bra is pretty tight and not comfortable but I’m trying to trust my surgeon and not wear one recommended from other places online.
