It's been a month

So, it's been a month. My healing has been great. My doctor lifted all restrictions, so I am going to start working out.

Since I have no more restrictions, I stopped wearing my binder :) and bought a new bra. My boobs went from a sagging, squishy 36B to a full 36D. I never dreamed that I would be a D. They look great on my body- not too big. I was a little concerned when my doctor told me that he would make them look right for my body, but he did. I'm glad a trusted him.

Does anyone know how to change my doctor on my page?? I did not have my surgery done by Dr. Green. A doctor closer to me dropped the price $4000. In fact, his office (Kim) said that she would refund $500 of my initial deposit (I changed docs a week after I gave $1000 deposit), but she hasn't. I've emailed multiple times, but I am being ignored. I'm seriously considering small claims court since I have all our communication on saved email. I don't want anyone to read my great review of my doctor thinking it is Dr. Green. Help please!!

I'll try to upload a few pics of my scars and breasts.

More detail of the surgery

So here is my review of the surgery day. My brain was really fuzzy for several days, so I waited to give all the details:

The morning of the surgery, my husband dropped me off. He was not permitted to come back. I went and got changed into my gown. The ladies were really friendly and kept me calm. I was given some "I don't care medicine" and then the knock out meds. Next thing I remember, I was waking up in the exact same spot I passed out. I never saw the inside of OR since I was out cold. I kind of wonder how I was moved around, but oh well :) I was very uncomfortable. The nurse gave me some ginger ale while we waited for my husband to pick me up. I got nauseous, so I was given a suppository to calm my stomach. Not the most comfortable way to get meds, but very effective. On the car ride home, I had to take a pain pill. I was very sore, so my husband drove very nicely. I'm glad I chose a doctor that was only 20 minutes away. Once I got home, I parked it on the couch with my feet propped up. My brain was very fuzzy- I couldn't really pay attention, hold a conversation, or think clearly. I could tell that my boobs looked great. I couldn't get a good look at my tummy since it was all bandaged and under a very uncomfortable binder. I had NO appetite and had to be told to eat. My husband nearly force-fed me with each pain pill. He was right, but at the moment, he was not my friend.

Over the next two days, I was up and down with help and fuzzy from the meds. When I was finally off the meds, I felt much better and got back to normal.

Here are some general things to consider and my interpretation:

Binder: bunchy and weird. The second one I got was much better. It is more like spanx.

Drain: annoying, especially when my body didn't need it so I started leaking all over the place. Removal didn't hurt at all :)

Meds: I've had percocet for 3 c-sections, and I had an annoying reaction to it this time. It may have been because I was on a high dose for initial pain.

Help: I needed someone to be there with me 24 hours a day for several days. Beyond that, I needed help with lifting my youngest child for a few extra days.

Boobs or Tummy: My boobs actually hurt more when trying to sleep. Make sure to truly ice them from 20 minutes several times a day to keep swelling down.

Emotional: I have never had anxiety issues, but I had an anxiety attack. Rough.

Swelling: My belly has looked really weird based on where it is swelling. My belly button was off to the side, but has now moved over.

I hope that these details help others just like posts have helped me!!!
