21 days PO today. I went bra shopping yesterday...
WORTH IT$14,500
21 days PO today. I went bra shopping yesterday and it was so fun. It was the first time I didnt have to shop in the preteen section. LOL I went to VS and the girls are measuring in at a 34DD. Sounds bigger than they look.
As of today I am 100% back to my normal routine. My stomach is swollen this evening but I dont feel terrible. I dont have any pain but still feel pulling when I move a certain way or lift something. The recovery was a bit longer than I would have liked but still soooo worth it!

Went to PS today and I dont have to go back for six more weeks. He says I am doing great. I have dinner plans this Friday night and I was really hoping I would be standing up straight by then. I am pretty much back to my normal routine. Today is the first day I drove and had to put my little guy in and out of his car seat. That was not fun. I can still feel some pulling when I lift my arms overhead. Its not painful, just uncomfortable. One thing I have learned over this experience is that I need to let go of the scale. I weighed myself the day of surgery and I was 140.2. I now weigh 142.2. Each of my boobs is over 13 ounces so almost two pounds of this weight gain is boobs and probably the rest is due to swelling. My point here is that I look totally different. I actually weigh more but my total appearance has changed. I have a flat tummy (in the morning) and I have my waist back. I have realized that what the scale says isnt that important. :)

Jac that's a good learning. I haven't even attempted to get on the scale. Wow boobies gave me two pounds?? I was doing good ore surgery I weighed 131. Im not getting back on the s she until probably 2 months. Are you gonna post pictures?

Jac dont let the scale control you!! You are full if fluid and you will lose weight eventually when things settle, you are fitting in your jeans that is a good sign, we need pics!!

I will post pix as soon as some of the swelling in my back goes down. Maybe tomorrow morning before the swelling gets to bad.

Getting better every day. I am still not standing...
Getting better every day. I am still not standing up straight but it is getting better. My help bailed out on me on Wednesday so my husband and I have been working it out taking care of my little guy. I probably have been pushing myself harder than I should but my little guy was really acting out when I was not able to care for him.
I can honestly say that I love, love, love my new boobies! The swelling has gone down and I am getting a better look at them. I am going to wait till I hit the one month mark and then go bra shopping. I got a gift certificate for VS so I am anxious to use it.

Jac- sorry the back is so painful, I got a walker from a friend at your suggestion to be prepared. Good luck keep it up I am sure not being on pain meds is a big help!

Hey, when you say you are 100% back to normal...does this mean you are lifting your 15 month old baby? In and out of crib only or are you carrying him around as well.
THanks for the update. I am so happy for you. I am still really struggling but hoping this will all be worth it in the end. :)
