I didn't feel like looking for the calendar lol. Well I was looking at one of my comments and realized I posted I was 7 weeks post op when it was only 5 weeks? I think it's because as soon as you get past 4 weeks the site says your 2 months post .. Oops. Well so far all is going well. I'm getting some nipple sensitivity and the odd thing is the boob that hurt the worst and is dropping slower is the good boob now. The one that was good is now the one that's extra sensitive. Ughhh. I wear the compression band at night but find it causes some numbing of my arms? Wondering if that happens to everyone? I dint take any new pics but may do that tomorrow. Honestly didn't see much change from the week before.

I think I'll head to the gym to swim again, I did that the day after my last post. It went ok but I swelled and my boobs both went high again.. Apparently that's normal. I've gotten used to the weight, and love how I look in tube tops now, but need the armpit scars to fade before I start wearing sleeveless stuff .. Come on Mederma work your magic. I went bra less the other day.. Not used to that and the damn seatbelt bothered my nipple!

I can sleep on my side now, but still a little hard to lay on my front. Got a great massage last week and just put a small pillow down above my boobs and worked awesome for when she worked on my back, I was long overdue.

Went out the other night, little upset my friend, yes she had been drinking, decided to full on grope my boobs in public announcing to her guy friends I had a boob job.. I didn't know them or want the blatent stares.. Yes staring happens that doesn't bother me but ughhh well it's a long story. I just am a little more reserved. I mean just because you get them done does not mean they are public property .

Boobies are doing good, feeling more normal. They look even from the front but my right is looking fuller then my left which is because the right had dropped more then my left. A few days ago I decieded to get serious about wearing that boobie band to help them drop and it is helping. They were both about the same in the morning but through out the day my left goes high again, I think it's because I'm steering the car with my left mostly and I can feel my left chest muscle get tight. I'm trying to relax more.
Thursday night was my first day back at the gym. My friend kept reminding me no arms while on the elipitical I did forget a few times and actually arms and boobs felt great... My lower ab did swell where the mini tummy tuck was but I was told its normal just wear a compression wrap to help control.
So the boobie band... Yeah I get why they want us to wear it but it was waking me up at night and I kept pulling it off... So now I don't, I just pull it over my boobs so it's under them which is looser. Then if I wake up again I put it back over the top. I think the hard part is because my implants are transax I can't wear the band with out a shirt cause it bugs the incision site and I don't want to wear the band in public... So with it raining a lot I've started wearing it over my shirt but under my sweat jacket.

I'm also using Mederma daily, my left side is looking really good the right side still pretty fresh ughhh I'm so impatient. Other then that I've been doing good with my eating and I'm a few lbs under my pre surgery weight ;).

Well I have more abdominal swelling since I'm not wearing compression anymore and I'm thinking I need to wear band more on the boobs to help them drop, left is riding higher then the right but dr said transaxillary usually does have additional swrlling up top a And keep wearing band to help push down. Other then that not too bad for only 1 month out for as much as I had done...
