WORTH IT
Hi ladies ! Not much has changed other than my new breast feel completely normal . There are times where I wish I went smaller or bigger but they are sooooo perfect for me . I cannot wait till the summer . My swelling didn't last long & my pain is completely gone . It still hurts sometimes while I'm sleeping without a bra . I've ended up a 38b for good & im just so thankful that I got this surgery . I haven't been taking a lot of pictures because my boobs are so normal ! Lol but anyways wanted to check in

8 weeks Post !
I am 8 and a half weeks post op ! Yay . Incredible to believe that I've made it this far. Just a quick update
Pain: I have very minimal pain . The only pain I can feel is where my incisions are and that's only some time
Sensation: I still have sensation in both of my nipples but I am numb under my armpits and on the sides of my boobs.
Scaring: some days they are flatter than others but my fiancé uses vitamin E oil and cocoa butter to massage the tissue to flatten them out & it's been helping a lot . (Thank God for him)
My appointment: I saw my dr at 7 weeks and I now have no restrictions with sleep or my bra or exercise . There is no limit to what I can do. I feel great . I work all day and nothing bothers me...especially not my back ;). I go without a bra at night and some weekends too & it doesn't bother me a bit. It's been great wearing whatever I want to wear ! My posture has improved and so has my confidence. I do a lot of shopping now. How are all of my following ladies...any updates?

Almost 3 weeks post op
Today I completed my full week back at work & it has been awesome . Other than being a little tired after a shift I haven't had any pain in my breast what so ever . Yesterday my Ps removed my sutures and that went by without incident . My birthday is Monday and this is the best present I could have ever given to myself . My breast are now soft & I love them so much . They are more bouncier even though I don't bounce and are starting to look more natural . They are feeling more normal & now they feel normal without a bra on . I don't go back to the dr for a month so I will talk to you guys then :)

Looks great!!! Mine was denied the insurance wants more info that my neck and back pain isn't associated from something else.. I am sooo mad.. Waiting to hear back from my ps.. They may recommend I see a chiropractor to rule out whatever my stupid insurance wants ruled out
