Here’s my journey! 42DDD goin to a B+ cup

Recovery has been up and down. Im healing pretty well however returning to work this week has set me back. I do a lot of repetitive upper body movements at my job and that has caused a lot of pain. I went into the doc today because I have been in pain and started feeling a hard lump on the side of my left boob. She said I was fluid trapped and suggested I put some warm compresses on it. She also limited my movements this coming week for work. I was excited because she took the tape off and I finally got a glimpse of my new boobs!! I’m so happy I went through with this!!

Recovery has been way better then I expected! I’ve been off pain meds for almost 4 days now and just taking Tylenol! Saw my doctor yesterday he gave me the ok to resume all activities as long as they don’t hurt. I’m so happy I can finally pick up my little one again! I’ve missed all of her cuddles! I finally got to shower and man was that amazing! I’m in love with how my boobs look now! I can’t wait to get in the gym and work off the belly my boobs have been hiding all of these years! I can’t believe the before and after transformation it’s amazing to me! I have another check up in 2 weeks if all of the tape isn’t off by then they will remove it! I’m kind of nervous to see my boobs when the tape comes off!

Little update! I’m 3 Days post OP and I’m feeling great! The pain is much more manageable then I anticipated! I’m down to only one pain pill here and there, not every 4 hours like the first 2 days. Drainage has been pretty much been gone. I do not have drainage tubes so I’ve been having to change my pads in the bra. All of the drainage in the pictures is from the first 2 days. I go for a check up on Wednesday and my surgeon will take the bra off for the first time! I’m so excited to see my new boobs! So far I love them I’m hoping I’m not super swollen still because I really like the size they are a the moment so I’m hoping they don’t get too much smaller. I’m having some tingling in my hands like my pinky on both hands feels like its asleep all the time. Definitely something I’ll talk with my doc about. The hardest part so far has been not being able to take care of my daughter and pick her up like I want to. Other then that it’s going good!!
