WORTH IT
5 weeks post-op and I'm still super happy with my results :)
Boobs are feeling nice, soft and squishy - still not 100% but getting there.
I went running for the first time yesterday and wore two sports bras lol
No pain and not much jiggle as I had two on :P
I've been sleeping on my side for a week or two now with a pillow under my boob for support. I still have a wedge under my pillow so I'm a bit propped up.
I'm still not allowed to wear wired bras but bought this cute black one. I just couldn't resist! Size is a 34D/75D.

Boonies looks good in the bra. I haven't went purchased any bras I brought my bras before surgery and the reason why is because I stayed at a 36dd all I wanted was a lift and the implants. The pic of me in the red bra I had it for a yr. When the swelling went down it was the first bra I tried on and I loved the way it looks on me. The first time I tried it on I didn't like the way it looked on me. But I'm not really big on bras I just wear sports bra now

Your 34Ds look better than my 34Ds! :D LoL Although I guess we tend to admire other people's results more than our own. Your results look fantastic and totally natural. Your boobs will definitely get your PS more work!! :D
July 6, 2016
Hahaha very true! We tend to be more critical on ourselves. How's your recovery going now? Still nipple sensitivity? Did you try the silicone nipple cover things?
July 6, 2016
Angry nipples are gone! Thank goodness. I can really "feel" these boobs settling and dropping now. Starting to soften a bit, but still very firm. I think I'll love them at 6 months post op when they really feel like a part of me. Enjoying them now, but they still seem foreign.
July 6, 2016
Yay! Glad to hear angry nipples are gone lol and great that they are softening now. Mine feel kinda soft everywhere else except in the bottom/lower part close to crease. I can't wait till they feel 100%soft and part of me :)

I think the Natrelle implants are softer than the Mentor ones. Wish my PS had them. I think mine are still so firm because I went as big as I could on these implants and it's going to take them longer. You went back to what you had already been at one point, which I think gives the best and most natural looking results. :)
June 29, 2016
They look great!!! So natural looking already!
July 6, 2016
Thank you :) they pretty much feel like a part of me now which is great!

You look so great and I have been following your feed. I am
Mother of two awesome children, 15 and 10 about your height and weight exactly. 42 years old. I just got my BA yesterday. 375 mentor moderate plus. I wasn't sure what size would be final. I thought of you and checked out all your pictures again last night and I am so excited. So far I love mine and I really love yours and excited we share same body type! You look amazing keep me posted on how you feel. We have a mini vacation to Portland in two weeks. My PS said I should be fine and I am going back to work on Monday.

First Bra! 23 days post op
375ccGummyBearGirlJune 24, 2016
Since my PS' nurses said that my swelling has gone down and have settled I went and bought my FIRST bra pos-op! I got a Chantelle intimates irresistible wireless plunge bra in 34D. Kinda looks like I'm wearing a push-up even if it isn't a push-up bra lol
Boobs are feeling softer each day and squishier. They are still a little tender on the sides but feel pretty normal otherwise. They even jiggle a little hahaa :D
Still using the scar gel once a day after I shower and using the silicon strips pretty much 24h per day. I can feel that I have some stitches on the side poking out a little which havent dissolved yet. They said last time that if they start bothering me I can just go anytime to get them trimmed shorter they don't really need removing as they are dissolvable however they won't dissolve on the outside only the ones inside will if that makes sense?
Still really pleased with how they look. I've been quite conscious about them though and been hiding them a little bit in fear that people will notice (I haven't told anyone except hubby + 1 close friend) and I think because of that I've thought on some days that I should have gone bigger but then when I look at them in a bra or in a tight top I'm 100% they are the perfect size. I think I need to be more confident and start wearing normal tighter things opposed to the loose fit type tops I've been wearing the last couple weeks.
Here's pics of my first proper bra purchased post-op :)

I agree! We do these procedures for many reasons and for me personally confidence is right around the top of my list of reasons. We didn't go through all this to hide them all the time (well, I'm still living in early odd boob shape world, so until I depart from here, I will be a tad incognito ;) BUT... after that I plan to embrace my increased confidence.
375cc you look really great and I hope you rock whatever tight top or anything else your heart desires!!!
It's all love. Good vibes ;)

U look amazing! I'm going for my surgery on7/6. Super nervous and excited too. Thank u for ur response regarding post op bra ( didn't buy one yet). I ordered sport bra with a zipper upfront. How many would u day I'll need postop/ or sport bras?
June 28, 2016
Thanks!
Has your PS said how long you need to wear your surgical bra? If it's only 1-3 weeks i think you would only need one surgical bra and one sports bra.

I'm postop day1, ps called a few times last night and today in am. Told me not to lift my arms and take it easy. I'm actually ok. I didn't realize how much we use our chest muscles!i feel sore and lots of pressure. My ps said tomorrow I might feel worse since anesthesia works for 24 hrs and will be wearing off. Would u say I felt worse on day 1,2?
July 9, 2016
@Mom3, I think the first 3 days were the worse. Then it started to get better on day 4-5 but much better only after about 2 weeks. I'm at 5 and a half weeks now and feel pretty much back to normal. I have started running again but still too scared to do any upper body workouts apart from lifting my kids up :)
Congrats on your BA!
