Looking great! I had actually just gone through your pics looking for a side one and realized you hadn't posted one since one week post op. Nice to see the progress and they're coming along great!
January 26, 2015
Right?? I'm so lazy when it comes topi tires lol I'll have to compare these from my only other sides I didbt yet. But I still have kinda a shelf in my side profile right?! Thank you for the compliments. They are nice to hear!
January 26, 2015
Look good. Why did you get textured anatomicals? I've prob read your explanation before, but just can't rememb. Lol I saw you said you're doing the strap, but are you doing massages too?
January 26, 2015
I had professional multiple xs a week massages up to 6wks. Now I just have my ways I have to push them everyday. Up down in and out lol Anatomicals have to be textured and that's what my ps would look best with my anatomy. Not to mention I have the 5th generation silicone that's supposed to be amazing lol
January 27, 2015
Oh yeah. Now I remember you saying that about the massages. So I guess the rest is just a waiting game? :) I went back & forth about whether or not to get the anatomicals. Either would've worked, but I have pretty high set breasts, we felt they may have been to high even when they settled. You're so close to final results. Can't wait to see!
January 27, 2015
Thanks Hun! Yea my ps was the only one out of 5 to suggest the anatomicals however I felt like I could trust her most. I know I can't expect final results in 7 weeks lol just can't wait to see them!

They look good! I really do think once the bottom relaxes and you get a little drop you'll be over the moon happy! I posted a long comment on the previous post but it looked like only part of it showed!?? That's a new rs issue Anyhow You do look great! Look at some of the longer rs updates... A lot happens in the first year. Seems like 2 months is the halfway progress marker for the d&f
January 26, 2015
Thanks hun I needed that reassurance.... :) :) I'm holding out and major freak outs til 6 months. By then they should look the way they re supposed to I think lol How are you doing???

January 26, 2015
I'm getting fat, thanks for asking :-) I'm reserving judgement til summer. If I come across one of those big change from 2 months to 9 months I'll link you to it. Some of them really make me feel way better! What does your ps say about it?
January 26, 2015
Thanks I would appreciate it! Seeing those always make me feel better! She says I'm still swollen and to give my underboob time to stretch I just wish it wasn't such a dragged out process! Ugh I see lots of reviews where the right one is higher then left so that makes me feel better too :) I know it will happen and I know it takes time! Ugh just impatient :) do you get clevage easily? Which bras are you using?
User Avatar
January 26, 2015
The common deal with everyone else seeming to have the right left difference makes me feel better too, if it doesn't go away I guess it's a way to identify each other :-) A year from now we'll be like, why did we think we'd have final results at 2 months!? I get cleavage if I push them together certain ways- pushing them in with my arms usually makes the inside muscle on the right push back and look weird. I'll take a cleavage pic in my next update, best was is opposite hands on opposite boobs for me. I have the natori bra and one vs I started wearing along with a Bali, my genie and some sleep sorts.
January 27, 2015
My natori truly smooth is what my ps recommended for me. They are so comfy! I had a differant kind of Natori that was comfy too I havent tried Bali are they true to size or vs sizing?
User Avatar
January 27, 2015
I'll have to check out the truly smooth! The Bali was an emergency purchase by my bf like 2 days post op when I was swelling around the dollar store bra my ps sent me home in. I had him get a band size bigger so it's too big now around and more of a comfy bra. I think the cup sizing was a range. I am torn between wearing comfy bras and supportive ones, don't want these girls to sag but like wearing the stretchy sleep styles :-)
User Avatar
January 27, 2015
Oh and I meant wacoal not natori bra I only have a natori sports but sent myself and email to check out the smooth!
January 27, 2015
That's why the truly smooth is perfect, comfy and supportive :)my ps told me not to wear anything that pushes the implants up ... So on nights I want some clevage after I find a good clevage bra, it will only be once in awile when I go out
User Avatar
January 27, 2015
I don't have a real cleavage bra either... Gonna have to look into that for special nights. So over the vs padding show!
January 27, 2015
Agreed! I'm still searching so lmk if you find a decent clevage bra!
User Avatar
January 27, 2015
You're looking awesome!! I'm 4 months with anatomicals and my right is still taking it's sweet time...I think it's common. Especially if your right handed. Keep up the good work! Great to see your progress!:)
January 27, 2015
Thank you! It does put me at ease to know it's common for one to be faster then the other however even at 4 months? Man I have a ways to go! Lol no freak outs no freak outs :) thank you for your post! I hope you are doing well!
User Avatar
January 27, 2015
Oh no no, don't freak out! I would have to say I am an extreme case...it's just my luck. However, I am doing well and trying to stay positive. Thank you for asking:)
January 27, 2015
That's all we can do :) so glad we have each other lol
User Avatar
January 27, 2015
Looking great! For me at 1 month I felt like they were not changing much and all of the sudden they started dropping faster :) good luck and lot of patience your way ;)
January 27, 2015
Thank you for the reassurance hun I appreciate it!

7 week update!

Boobs4momof3
Hi ladies!
I forgot to take pics last week, I'm gettin lazy lol
I feel like they havent changed :( my right is still riding high. I'm still wearing the band as often as I can man it's being stubborn! I also still feel like I should have gone bigger! Ugh. Last night I went out and displayed a little cleavage but I feel like I don't have a lot.... It's weird how I can't squish mine together like my girlfriend can her smooth rounds to get really nice cleavage. it's hard to explain.
I'm really looking forward to being 6 months post op and having them be perfect :) good news? I finally got my 8lb post op gain off!!!!! Yay!!!!!!! Back at the gym and loving it. I can still feel the implants more noticeably but that's expected lol
I really hope my right catches up with my left! And I REALLY want my underboob to shape and them not to be so cone like
How are all you ladies doing???
Implants: 400 cc sientra shaped anatomicals (should have done 450!)
Mod profile
34a/b before
34d (barely) after 34dd at VS
7weeks 2 days post op

I don't think there's been much change since 5weeks tho

Good job on the 8lbs!!! I'm stuck at the 4lbs lost. Love my beverages and food too much haha I know what you mean about ours vs smooth round. My girlfriend has 350 round smooth and hers seem to be more "pliable" if that's a good word to describe it. Mine are there but sculpted there while hers are more augmented booblicuous. :)
January 26, 2015
Hey 4lbs is 4 lbs girl!!! Although after my few nights of drinking I'm sure I'm back up lol Ok glad it's not just me on the boobs textured vs smooth round! I know over time these will be way better but right now I'm having a little bit of a hard time convincing myself! I saw you can get clevage though, did you need a push up to do that? I can't even get that look right now lol And I'm still feeling coneish and not round boobish grrrr
User Avatar
January 26, 2015
Yay for weight loss! And I definitely know that boob greed! I keep telling myself it's super early and to try and be patient. Not really working. Haha! :-) Hopefully once the right catches up with the left and they're dropped, we won't be so boob greedy. ;-)
January 26, 2015
Thanks! And man I really hope so! Here I was SO worried about feeling like 400 was going to make me ginormous that I didn't even consider the 450. Boob greed is real! Ugh I'm still trying to reserve all judgement until 6 months post op :) yours are looking so good! Wth is with our rightys lol
User Avatar
January 26, 2015
Yeah I stopped seeing VISIBLE changes but whenever I look back a couple weeks ago...they have definitely changed. You'll be able to squish them together soon!
January 26, 2015
Thanks hun! I'm hoping they change and my underboob stretches soon! I don't want cones any more! Lol
User Avatar
January 26, 2015
Lol, you crack me up... All the sizing stress and now the boob greed! That's a good problem though! I bet you'll be very happy once they settle in a little more-they'll be just right! CONGRATULATIONS on the weight loss!! That's awesome! I have officially gained 10!!
January 26, 2015
Ha but 10 for you is duffersvg because your tiny and still weigh less then me! Haha Right??! Man did I FREAK about size Wtf Now I'm like hmm coulda pulled off the 450 Lol How are you feeling about size??
User Avatar
January 26, 2015
You look great! Least from neck to waist :-) Too bad you can't pump these things up and down like the old air Jordan's I'm feeling 95% better I'd still go smaller if I had to do it again though :-) Thank you for asking, I need to do an update post- had my last post op with my ambivalent ps
January 26, 2015
Hshaha pumping them up and not having to pay another 9k would be awesome! Lol Glad your getting used to them :)
User Avatar
January 26, 2015
I have stopped seeing visible changes too at 5.5 weeks...so I try not to look and compare everyday, but that isn't working so well for me :) ....who knew that would be such an impatient process. I too am waiting for more underboob!! Congrats on the weight loss, I haven't weighed my self to see just how much I have gained but I am anxious to get back in the gym soon (I plan to start at 6 weeks post since yoga is one of my workouts of choice). Again congrats on the weight loss and happy continued healing!
January 26, 2015
Thanks Hun! I try not to compare everyday too but it's hard when I see myself in the mirror Lol You will feel so much better after you get back to tie workouts! I haven't tried yoga yet though! But hopefully soon! Yay on almost 6 weeks! Congrats!

5 week pictures and workout check in!

Boobs4momof3
Hi boobie sistahs!
How is everyone doing??? Man so thankful for squishy boobies lol they don't bounce a whole yet tho
Finally out of the genie bra and multiple xs a week massages are over. I now will see my ps once a week for shaping. She tells me what bras to wear cuts them up special ways to my specific shaping. I am still wearing my ace wrap strap as well. When I go out I wear a normal bra lol I must say, I love all the open communication I have with my dr. I worry a lot especially with all the changes. So thankful I'm seeing her weekly :)
I'm SO much better since I've been able to run, not exercising messes with my emotions. With that said I still can't curb my sweet tooth! Ugh. I'm cleared for all weights now instead of chest, my ps recommends no chest work ever.
So I'm not 100% bavk into yet with my weight workouts. Running has been awesome though! I'm going to start with my kettlebells again next week. I can't believe it's already been 5 weeks! How are you all doing with your post op eating and
Workouts??
I had another awe night where I wish I went bigger, I feel like they re shrinking! I was SO obsessed and afraid to go too big I clouded my judgement. I went with 400 instead of 350 man SO thankful for that I would have cried if I did the 350.
I didn't even give 450 a chance because the second I put the sizer in I freaked out saying it was WAY too big. Ugh. Stupid me.
Told the hubby I hope they don't keep shrinking :( I want to stay a D! but I feel like a C. No joke ladies. I freaked about size obsessed, day and night. and well I said it. Yup. I coulda gone bigger! They don't look big at all especially in clothes! No one has been able to tell. Even at work. Still numb but doesn't feel as yucky as it used to.
Looks like mine are starting to settle at differant rates. Righty is higher (your left) Hope that fixes itself soon! I can feel the implant move all the time now. I'm very aware they are there. Lol every time my upper body moves or flexes so do they, I'm getting used to it though.
Hubby cannot get enough of them and loves them too if not more. I tend to be more critical on myself and how I look.
Can't wait to lose this weight and go bathing suit shopping!
Cheers to squishy 5 week boobies!

awesome comparison pics!! love how you did that! i have no idea how you techie girls do it. you can really see a difference!! i think this last week is maybe the biggest change! they are really settling in! very nice! my righty is not the same as my lefty either...hopefully they level out--or i guess we know how to tell is someone has a boob job--just look for the right to be higher :-) seems to be a common ailment. glad you're feeling sane working out again. since i started working out i can now feel my implants/my muscles flexing everytime i use them. i hope it's just because they are being re-awakened and that goes away--i didn't have that before working out. last night i was laying in bed and my boobs were super soft, like real feeling! i pray they stay like that someday! glad you and the hubs are happy you are looking marvelous!

Love the progress pics! I think my boobs also got really squishy after week 5and now on week 7 they also bounce. I feel like the implants have started becoming part of me and don't noticed ih as often. Good luck!
January 11, 2015
Thank you! I do the progression because I'm so impatient so hoping if I do weekly progressions I'll notice more of a chance. All that's left is waiting for my underboob to stretch more to finish settling the implant. My ps will see my weekly to work on this :) what's weird is from the get go I was so afraid of feeling like there's something foreign in me but what's weird is I never did! Which is good right? It's just as they got squishy and swelling goes down I can feel them move a ton more. But even though I feel them moving still doesn't feel foreign, make sense? Lol I'm starting to get slight bounce but j don't think textured shaped bounce like rounds tho? At least that's what I've heard How are you doing? Congrats on 7weeks!

Thank you! I feel amazing I am loving my breast and so is my husband! I feel it changed my life and confidence. I feel sexy even with pj's lol. I can't wait to see your next update after your weekly appointments start. Will he be doing anything specific to shape your breast?
January 14, 2015
I agree! My ps does various shaping methods with all sorts of bras and contraptions lol She's got so many years of tips and tricks up her sleeve she's amazing More so that I get to see her weekly. It helps me not freak out if something is a little off because I'm not even 6weeks yet. :)
User Avatar
January 11, 2015
Yay for progress! And I feel the same about the 400s. So glad I pushed myself for that little bit extra. My right is also higher and feeling the flexing is getting better every day. I actually did some serious cleaning (left arm only) the other day and that weird implant feeling isn't so bad anymore. Happy 5 weeks! :-)
January 11, 2015
Hi hun! Thank you! I keep telling myself I should have gone bigger :( but then I remind myself how incredibly tight my skin was first 3 weeks post op and not sure more would have fit! Lol I feel the implant move all the time, we ll get used to it tho it's because we aren't used to it. How have you been feeling? I don't remember have you been sized yet? What size are you?
January 11, 2015
You look great! What profile are yours?
January 11, 2015
Thank you for the compliment! I'm not sure I ever posted that sorry! 400ccs sientra moderate profile Classic base anatomicals :)
January 11, 2015
Hi hun! It's a picture app I have on my phone very easy! I was loling about the rt vs left So true though, I'm sure I'll still have assemetry just hoping they settle and align up. I know one was slightly bigger to begin with but not this much and I can tell by the cleavage area it still has to settle more. No I'm the same way. I think it's as they settle we can feel them more. We are hyper aware too since it's all new territory to us, kwim? Over time I don't think it goes away but I do think we become used to it that we don't pay attention to it over time. I don't like them moving every time my chest flexes either :/ Mine are squishy like real boobs too that's so nice! I was worried about them being too firm. Just waiting for mine to settle and round out at the bottom. When we stand up we are contracting our pecs a little without realizing it. That's why it felt squishier when you were relaxed laying down. I can't wait for all sensation to return and underboob to form Lol Are you more used to size after all your bathing suit photo ops? Yours seemed perfect from day 1! Jealous!
January 11, 2015
Sunshine this reply was to you but it posed up here. Grrrrrrrr

January 12, 2015
I hope you're right about getting used to the feeling! My happiest times are when I can forget I have implants, I love feeling 'normal', and I use that term very loosely! :-) I am getting used to the size and feeling better to have found some normal looking/feeling swim suits. Still a little much naked but I think they look proportionate in clothes. Really hoping to fall in love yet! Thanks for the compliment, though I suppose I'm lucky to have these things settle into place fast I'm jealous about all your fun changes from week to week! I hope I have a little/lot of softening and a touch of drop yet to go.
