Monday will be 9 weeks post-op

Feeling great! Just went and got measured, and I am I 34D. So went up 1 cup size, back to my pre-babies bra size.(: Right nipple is still pretty numb, with some tingles here and there. So we shall see.(: doing scar cream once a day, always wearing a bra to sleep. Size wise, they are everything I asked for. I feel that they can look either pretty big, or fairly sporty depending on what I’m doing and what bra I wear. They fit my frame really well.

4 weeks 2 days post-op

The squish has improved.

I think week 4 has so far been the least eventful in the healing journey. I no longer sit and think about my new breasts constantly lol I remember before surgery, being nervous I would be able to “feel” the implants. Like if I was just living normal life, would I be able to notice that I had something put in. I can confirm- not at all. Which is why I am no longer thinking of them 24/7. I feel the best I’ve felt so far, and they truly don’t “feel” like anything. My right nipple is still doing it’s deal. A little sore, and raw, and some pinches and pokes here and there. I’ve done a poor job documenting the drop-and-fluff, because I haven’t taken the same photo/angle week after week. So it’s har to really say. I still look at the side profile and think they have some more dropping-and-fluffing to do. Incisions seem goods they are a little red and itchy. Some days I will have a fair amount of discomfort on a boob, in the cleavage area. I’m assuming from things shifting in there and making room? I’m at the point in recovery where I feel like I should be allowed to lift children, workout, yoga, run… lol but I then remind myself 2 more weeks! I’m just feeling almost completely back to normal, so it’s a mind game at this point, (and to be honest, the whole recovery lol) I am just not one to sit still. Feeling good, feeling thankful, and so happy I finally did this!
ALSO- ignore the zit patches lol… they are currently my best friends

Day 24 post op!

LOTS of feeling in my right nipple today. It’s uncomfortable for sure. It just feels very raw all the time, even just in my bra. Day 5 after surgery, my left nipple was so raw, I ended up putting a cotton pad in my bra to help relieve it. It did help, and this is staring to feel how that nipple felt. So all good news, I’m assuming. ALSO, holy cow, i literally just discovered new incisions yesterday! Hahaha i thought it was literally just the lollipop lift, but then last night I was investigating my under boob, and at first thought it was just a little crease, only to realize it was an incision I didn’t even know I had! I literally laughed about it. It’s so fine, it looks like a hair. And it hides so well (clearly) that I doubt I’ll ever see it. For anyone who’s thinking about Dr. Yates for a regular breast augmentation, I imagine this is the scar you would get! Healing seems to be going well. I did a think layer of scar ointment today, skipping around my nipples, just to be extra careful in letting them fully heal first. So happy. So thankful. Very excited to post the one-month-mark on Monday!!
