It's been a couple of months since I updated my profile. Everything is awesome. I have a lot more sensation is my left nipple. And I still have numb spots around both breasts. I have zingers maybe once a month. Otherwise I have no issues. They have sagged quite a bit and I have to remind myself that this is a more natural look. But I've remained a 34C and my wardrobe has expanded tremendously.

Wow! You look amazing! Any expert hints or tips to one who is a month away from the big day? You are by far the best I've seen...good genes? Good living? Good faith? Be happy to heat!

Hi Suzie. Congratulations on taking this step. It's a wonderful experience you won't regret. Advice...I started taking a few supplements 2 weeks before my surgery that helped speed up my healing process. They were recommended by one of the PS's that I consulted with, but not the one I actually is used. I've listed them under my "found my guy" post. Exercise exercise exercise. Join a gym if you have to, but as soon as I decided I was going to have this surgery I started exercising vigorously (about 3 months prior to the date).

It's a wonderful feeling to fit into regular bras. I honestly do not remember my previous life.

So it's now 4 months. Everything is going great. At 4 months I still have some zingers and sometimes they're very intense. Usually when I'm not moving. My left nipple is still numb. They have settled a lot. I only notice how low they are in photos and I wish they stayed as perky as day one. I have no regrets though.
Life is great. I don't remember life without them. Or how I lived. I have bought too many bras. I'm a full C. And I can fit into a 34C or D. I have also bought some really cute strapless dresses. That fit so great. 2013 has blessed me and I'm so thankful. Never did I thought that this would be my greatest accomplishment for the year. I feel awesome.

So I think my breasts are growing. This is depressing. I hate the way they look in photos when my hands are down. Right looks wayy bigger than left in photos. I guess they couldn't be perfect. And I think I'm a 34D. I bought 34C and they seem uncomfortable. Anyway I havent had any back pain and still no feeling in left nipple.

It's an optical illusion. You're just adjusting to their size which makes them seem bigger as you're forgetting now what the old ones were like. I know this to be true because, 4 months on, I'm feeling exactly the same. I totally get the *sighs deeply*. This morning I spotted stretch marks on the sides of mine. These look new to me which makes me think they've grown. But it could be that they're just left over from before and I didn't notice because before I was just do pleased with their smallness. I personally think you look the same size pretty consistently since the op....you look amazing. :)

Thanks so much I really appreciate it. I think youre right, but i just cant help it. I remember looking at your photos before I had my surgery and thinking I hope mine looks half as good. I always assumed a reduction can never look good. Until I saw all the beautiful ladies here.
