So glad to hear that you are doing well. Did you have any problems with healing? Isn't it amazing how fast time goes? Tomorrow I will be 10 months post op. I can't believe that it has been almost a year! Congratulations on the new job! Isn't it nice to be able to walk into a room without you boobs going in before you do? Lol

Hello everyone sorRyan I haven't been on for a while. Just been working. But here is an update.

My breast r still tender they have dropped a little but I lo've my new boobs alot. I feel so much happier now. I wore an under wire bra the other day. Not to bad but it is uncomfortable after a long period of time. My nipples still very sensitive to the touch. I do notice my nipples r a little off but im not really mad because my husband is the only one looking at them. I do have a question ladies. did u stop wearing ur surgical bra and when because I dont use it anymore because it is not uncomfortable to me it rubs my nipples something awful. I doMr wear a bra to bed is that bad. But so far everything is going good

Sounds like you are doing fine to me. I'm 2.5 and wear a "surgical" sometimes mostly because I don't have that many bras that fit right now, but I do wear others. I wear a cheap sports bra to bed too, just to help a little.

You look great my I'm looking to get a reduction to my doctor is giving me a referral to a plastic surgeon... I have a question I have. I bcbs did they require and thing besides pics from You. Thanks

I have BCBS of NC. I also had to have documentation of any preventive measures that I had taken - any physical therapy, pain medications, supportive bras and so on. You should be able to look it up on your insurance's web site. Better yet, call them and talk to a representative. They may be able to answer your questions better. I had my reduction done September 23rd. I feel fantastic and would have the surgery again in a heartbeat!

Hey girl! I'm finding out that the tenderness will last a while. I am almost 6 months post op and I still feel a little tenderness on the undersides of my breasts. My nipples are still really sensitive too. That still kind of feels weird to me because before the surgery I had no sensation in them at all. I had immediate sensation in the right, but the left just "woke up" at about 4 months post op. I was finally able to lay on my side and stomach at around that time also. It's a slow-going process, but so worth it!
