Things have gotten so much better than from the first week of recovery. I had a two week check up yesterday and the doctor is happy with my progress. Everything looks on track. She explained that I still have a lot of swelling in my breasts. I was happy to hear that because I really don't want to be this big and am really hoping the size shrinks down. I also noticed a drop or two of fluid coming from my left breast duct. She said from the swelling it could cause that to happen. It's not common but she's seen it before. My aureolas have felt tight like when one is a nursing mother. I think the 'trauma' of the surgery has tricked my boobs. My stitches have been itchy too. But that's all part of the healing process right.
Another thing I realize happening in the morning is when I wake up my stomach muscles seen to contract like a braxton hicks contraction. Has anyone else experienced that? My body naturally wants to stretch awake, especially my stomach, so it tightens up. I have to really concentrate to get it to relax. It's kinda bizarre. Thank heaven it doesn't hurt at all. Maybe it's all part of the healing process too?
Tonight is going to be our first evening out in over two weeks. I've really be lying low since surgery on the 2nd and in no rush to over extend myself during recovery. (I have such sympathy and in awe of all those recovering moms of small children!) Looking forward to dinner and a live band we've been looking forward to seeing. We'll be joined by another couple. I wonder if they'll notice anything? They know I've had surgery but not what for. I'm wondering if I'll confide what I had done or just keep mum........
I hope everyone else is recovery well too! Have a great weekend.

Here is a small pic to show an after and before.
I have a case of the itchy stitchy
I was hoping for restful nights sleep two nights in a row but at about 3:00am I was woken up with an itchy breast at the incision line. Tingly and irritating...gah! It was at least an hour before I could go back to sleep. Anyone have any suggestions?
So I had a good news/bad news today. After my shower I felt up to trying on some clothes (for the first time) and was so happy to try on a red Tahari dress that previously I would have had to wear spanx and still would have looked 4 months pregnant. It fit perfectly and there was no belly bulge at all! It put a big smile on my face. Now the bad news...I tried on my old bra and it still fits. :-( I was a 34DD and really wanted to be a 34C. I was a 36B/34C before my first augmentation. I got a 302cc implant hoping it would take me to 34D. I knew from the first glance it was too big. So for five years I hated my huge size. I really wanted to get this revision right. With doing a much needed lift I was choosing to come down in size too. I made sure to let my PS know I didn't want to be big at all, etc. She chose a 190 cc. I can't believe that didn't make a difference in cup size. I figured with the small excess skin removed and smaller implant it would be smaller. I know I'm only 12 days post op but I don't feel swollen. Come on boobies, shrink!!
