Doing great. Most pain is completely resolved. Started massages last week. Right is starting to drop. I'm very happy with the appearance. The size is perfect for me. I realize I could have gone bigger but I don't have the desire for huge breasts when I've always been very thin. These results are very natural for me. So far they have gone unnoticed at work. Well at least consciously. I have been checked out more but I don't think anyone has been able to place what's different. Mainly because I always wore a padded push up bra. Anyway. It's perfect for me. My clothes still fit - just better. Most of my bathing suits as well. I'm very excited for bathing suit season. :) I'm starting on the elliptical today - gently. We will see!

Hey - we have almost the same stats and started with an almost identical before pic! You look great! I almost went to 325cc but I chickened out and went with 300cc. I'd love if you would post an update now that you're 9 months post op! Because I'm so curious as to what to expect with time - I'm just shy of 3 weeks post op now. It's so hard to find women our height who go with smaller implants!

What a week!

So I went back to work the day after surgery - luckily it was just class for a test I have coming up. I require Percocet only at night until Sunday night and went back to work work on Monday. The pain was tolerable. I was tired but I made it through! I progressively got better through the week. I had to cancel my second post op but I'll be able to make it next Wednesday. My PS seemed to think I could start massages then. The right looks a lot different from the left but besides that I am really really happy with them. I love the size. The swelling is starting to go down. I'm glad I didn't go bigger. For my body they are perfect. Anyway I have pictures from the day of surgery to yesterday I'm going to try to load. So glad the pain on the right when I use my arm is much better today. It was like an electric sharp pain the radiated through my arm to my nipple. But that's better. Anyway more later

Hello...

firekfire
So I made it through surgery. Last minute decided on the 325 cc and I really really believe that was the best decision for me. Surgery went well. I only have needed the Percocet at night. I've had bowel movements thanks to Miralax and senna and Colace. My post op visit went well. Steri strips in place. I'm a little assymetrical but he didn't seem concerned. I'm to wear a sports bra and see him in a week when I'll get some massages to do. Last night the pain was particularly bad but I was able to sleep it off. They have been swollen and itchy but pretty much numb. The right is a little more so than the left and the nipple is down turning. This assymetry really bothers me. I really hope it settles out. The swelling makes the 34 c vs sports bra tight so every hour I've been letting them breathe for a minute when I go to the bathroom. Part of me wants to buy a larger sports bra but then again the swelling will go down and that won't fit. Maybe I'll get out to a store to find something as back up. I look forward to the swelling going down and them softening. I'm pretty sure the size will be perfect. I know I need to be patient. Pictures to come...
