Reductions 32G to 32D/DD
I am 2 weeks before my breast reduction from a 32G to a 32D/DD. I’ve decided not to go smaller than that as I’ve had big boobs my whole life (well - substantial part of it!) and feel I won’t look balanced any smaller. I’ve never had pain or felt they’ve been in the way, more just getting clothes and swimwear to fit and be be comfortable.
Has anyone tips on what I should have in the house for when I get home in terms of bra, bed support etc? Or just any advice in general!

2 days to go!
It’s 2 days before I go in for my reduction, the hospital admissions rang today and the nurse will apparently call tomorrow for a chat. The only drawback is having to be there at 630am! And without even a coffee to wake me up!
I’ll post some more more photos when I can as I’ve found they’ve been really helpful in my research.

Similar to me, only I had to arrive for 7.30am. PS didn’t turn up until 8.30 apparently stuck in traffic, but by 9am I was in the anaesthetic room drifting off. Wishing all the best. Good luck. See you on the other side x

Well it’s done and dusted! The surgery went very well and I had the drains taken out today and am now ready to go home! No pain not even when the drains were removed. The nurse changed the large bandages over to some strips so I got to see my new and improved boobs! High and firm but I’m sure they’ll soften and drop, not complaining wouldn’t mind them staying up here! I’d say I’m a generous D maybe DD and very happy. Will post some photos in the next day or two.

Home and comfortable
I came home after one night in hospital despite being able to stay 2 nights. I was getting a new room
mate (no private room available!) so decided I would sleep better at home.
I haven’t had any pain that can’t be helped with a couple of standard panadol. Sleeping is easy with my wedge pillows and husband in the guest room!
I’m very happy with the result, so far no bruising and they look extremely perky! Can’t stop looking through swimsuit websites for summer!
I would highly recommend getting the surgery done, I know it’s only early days but I couldn’t be happier.

It's always nice to be at home! Update through the process, pics and how your feeling.

Hello Dh1979 & LD MamaBear thanks for your comments, have you had a reduction yet or are you thinking about it? Highly recommend having it done, it’s literally a load off your chest!
Not sure how much was removed but will ask the doctor on Friday, I know I weighed 2kg less after a night in hospital but maybe that wasn’t all boob loss!
I just have to try and stop doing everything around the house!

Fab news. They look a great shape and size on you. They actually look like 32D/DD, this is great early sign. I still think mine will end up an F or G.

How are you recovering now?
August 19, 2018
Hi! Sorry I went AWOL as so much going on.
Recovery has been great, I didn’t have any pain only annoying thing is the sleeping on back but that was fine after a couple of nights while I got used to the wedge pillow under my legs. Now it’s so comfy I can’t give it up.
I went back for my first appointment after a week and was really impressed with the scars, they were very thin and healing nicely.
Now it’s almost 4 weeks and I’ve just been changing the tapes myself each week, the only “funny” bit is on the right side where it looks a bit like a skin tag but with my arm down you can’t see it. I’ll ask the doctor when I go back on the 11th.
I didn’t he any trouble driving after 10 days not any problem with household jobs. I did get a clever d now think I’ll keep them on, I went to the hairdresser once a week for a wash and blow dry but that’s t Aly now just laziness!
So all good!!
