I feel like you do. I was in the beginning very happy and I still am but they look smaller then before. Hoping when they drop and fluff out they appear a bit bigger. Also I have pains still. Like my nipples are ao sensitive... Burning and just uncomfortable. I bought a couple of bra. 38 D fits the best but I just don't feel like a D. Weird right?! Hopefully we are just emotional and will overcome these feelings in a couple months when we are completely healed. Hugs to u! Xoxo

Hi Lynn! My nipples burn too:( I just keep reminding myself I am only 2 weeks post op, so I really need to be patient about all of this. I was told there would be some swelling, but not told how much to expect, so I honestly thought that what I saw right after surgery would be really close to my end result. Still though, like you, I am happy. No question about it. Just bummed that I didn't know, so I set myself up thinking one thing although reality was another. And I don't think it is weird at all that you don't feel like your size-I think there is a big adjustment period after having a BA. Sometimes I catch myself in the mirror and think "My push up bra is doing wonders for me today!" And then I realize that no, those are my new boobs in a sports bra, and it totally throws me off! Other than the burning is your recovery going well? All the very best to you! Hugs!!

Recovery is actually very good! No actual pain just discomfort. My steri strips fell off and I actually posted a ? Waiting for RS to post it. I was just wondering when I can apply the scar guard I bought. I emailed my ps but they are closed for the weekend. I'm sure they will get back to me Monday morning they are very good in getting back. I went to the gym and walked 2 miles so that felt great. All in all I am very happy with everything. I had worried sooooo much prior to surgery lol. But happy healing !! Pls stay in touch.. Can't wIt to see both our end results :)

Two Weeks and a Day Post Op
This week has been considerably better than last week. Incisions are practically invisible, no more pressure or discomfort, and no morning boob. I can sleep flat, but not yet totally on my side without discomfort.
I believe the swelling has gone down quite a bit too because, to me, they don't look nearly as big as they were, and I am more than a little bummed:( I keep telling myself that they still have to drop and fluff and that what I see now is not my final result so I need to be patient. I am also hoping that with the d&f will come some side boob because I don't have much of that either right now.
Is there anyone going through similar feelings at this stage in recovery? I did this procedure for myself so when I look in the mirror and am naked I can be proud of how I look, and I am back to not wanting to look at them because they look so weird to me. The right one was always a little smaller (barely noticeable) than the left one and now all of a sudden the size difference seems magnified-by a lot.
