28 Years Old, 2 Kids, Breast Aug
I was uncomfortable with the size of my breasts, especially after losing some weight. I met with three board certified surgeons and went with Dr. Hoops. I liked his staff, his demeanor, and felt most comfortable following the consultation with him. I got 400cc saline implants under the muscle. The experience was much smoother than I expected. My recovery was very quick and I am thrilled with the results.
Week 2
This week has felt mostly normal. My Dr gave me great feedback, basically said I was free to do what didn't hurt. I stretched a bit this week. Worked too hard to get a split as an adult to let it slip away now. Lol. My chest is in no condition to do real work, so I'm still keeping it easy. Completely off meds. Rarely have to pop ibuprofen anymore.
I did grab nipple flowers because my nips are like headlights in most of my clothes. I haven't really had an issue with sensitivity, increasing or decreasing, but my boobs are bigger so my nipples are much more noticeable. I found a really soft bralette at target that also helps. It's wonderful.
My stitches were super tender after I stretched. Not sure if that's related, but that's when it happened. Lasted a full 24 hours, but I'm ok now. They're feeling softer every day, but not normal yet.
Things are looking good. Still happy.

One week update
I've felt better than expected this week. General chest discomfort has been far more prominent than actual pain, though my stitches have had an achiness on and off.
I stopped pain meds a few days ago, the side effects were becoming worse than hanging tough without them. Laxatives were not bridging the gap. The girls are still pretty hard and high, though the bruising is less than I had thought it would be.
Thus far I'm happy with them and how I'm dealing with the post op life.
Saw my Dr, he said all is well, but not to overdo it. If it hurts, stop. No push ups, etc. I am sitting around a lot which leaves me time to create problems in my head that one is higher or whatever. But I know it's too early to see real issues like that, so I'm chugging along.
Nights are hardest. I hate sleeping on my back. Ive had to take sleep aids just to relax, but as soon as I can sleep on my side I think I'll be set.
All in all, I'm feeling good about everything. Loving the way tank tops are looking on me right now. Lol.

Provider Review
Dr. Hoops was very informative and open to questions. At no point did he make me feel uncomfortable or silly for asking a question or expressing a concern. His staff is warm and friendly, every single person I interacted with was a dream. My swelling and bruising was minimal, pain was manageable, well within the expectations described to me by Dr. Hoops. He encouraged me to find a size that fit my frame, and the results were amazing. I love them. my only regret is that I didn't get them sooner.
