Not really seeing any changes visually but they feel a bit softer to touch. They constantly feel tingly and are stinging. It's a really hard to describe the feeling. Still struggling to reach things and even driving isn't the same. I'm hoping they will start to drop soon. I'm worried I keep doing things I shouldn't and It will ruin the result. I.e I'm gradually sleeping on my side and picking my toddler up who is pretty heavy. I've read a few reviews with people saying after a month their back to normal but I don't feel that'll be me this time next week. I'm going to update every Sunday now just week to week to monitor the changes

Feeling more confident with the outcome

I'm trying not to be so negative! They look good for 2 weeks post. Nipples feel strange which I assume is the sensitivity. My boobs still feel hard and heavy which is something I just didn't expect after 2 weeks but I think that's down to my naiveity! If i prod them in places they are getting softer but the overall feel is quite hard. Still not back to doing everything and still struggling with everyday tasks. Will try and update with pics weekly now to monitor progress

Hi. I've been following a lot of journeys and everything you describe sounds typical, even the emotional peaks and troughs. I have to say I think you look absolutely fantastic. I'll be delirious if I manage to get anywhere near the look you've achieved. Really - you look great!!!
October 26, 2014
You look great. You won't feel like yourself for about six weeks. I had mine done Sep. 12. I still sleep on my back or side. The pain is all gone but on is still higher than the other. My doc said I should see final results by 3-4 month range. It's art in progress. Believe me when I first got them I wanted to take them out, now I love them.

I agree with all ladies here, your boobs look gorgeous , at only 2 weeks post op ...Don't be so hard on yourself . I heard from my own PS and read from many ladies on this website that they do get softer with time ..Happy healing and stay POSITIVE , your boobs look GREAT, REALLY...

So happy to hear that. I paid on Friday so a week today it'll all be over and my turn to complain about how i feel! I think i've stopped being so scared for now and am starting to feel a bit excited. I'm away for the school holidays so thats keeping me occupied although i can't believe i haven't managed to do any exercise for 10days now. Have people noticed taht you haven't told? How do you feel about the size? I still don't know what to go for 240cc or 215 - i guess i'll decide on the day. Hope it just keeps getting better and better for you. PS are you taking any vitamins to help your recovery/help your mood?

Not liking them at all!
Lauren6401October 23, 2014
I'm either impatient, overly critical or just something else. There seems to be this same pattern for a lot of women on here. Being excited and then having doubts then not being happy. I just don't like how they look at the moment and am thinking what was the actual point of having this done? No one sees them anyway. I think the lack of exercise is getting me down and I'm getting fatter by the day. I must put a stop to this eating. It's completely unlike me.

I'm in the same boat on the exercise issue. I just want to take a walk even! I know it will get better, and luckily I'm so busy at work it takes my mind off it a little bit, but then exercise is the best stress reliever! Ugh
October 23, 2014
That's the problem, exercise sorts my head out when work or the kids are stressing me out a bit. Just throw my running shoes on and iPod and I'm gone for an hour and like a totally different person when I get back.

Hey i think they're starting to look good! Still swollen a bit but that will go and with each day that passes they'll start to look more and more natural - they're going to be great i'm convinced, they're def dropped a bit- think how you'll feel in your exercise gear, i was always totally flat when wearing a sports bra. You've got to try and not give yourself a hard time about eating, you'll be back to exercising and being healthy before you know it. I'm basically taking time out from everything until after Xmas (well apart from work!). How's the pain now? Are you sleeping any better? I'm supposed to have paid in full today but i keep stalling...
October 23, 2014
Don't stall! You always have great advice for me but never for yourself! I think it's getting to me because they looked good and then the right started to drop so they are uneven now. I just beat myself up and the whole point of going through with this was for them to look fab! I'm not sleeping any better as Jesse has given me his stinking cold. I haven't been able to talk all day and been coughing all night! I think I'm just completely run down. Pains ok, mainly discomfort now and a few shooting pains.

Now I wouldn say this if I didn mean it but I have no idea why u don't like them I think there looking great already lovely. Can't wait till mine xx
October 23, 2014
They look completely different to me. Maybe I am just being impatient! I can't wait until yours! Not long now!! X

I think you are looking great. I also think it is pretty normal to have ups and downs in the weeks and months after surgery as I see this quite a bit. Keep your head up!
