27 Yr Old 122 Lbs 350cc or 400cc??

Hiiii! Has my post op yesterday, at 6 days post. First set of sutures removed, other set are dissolvable, and wraps and dressings removed! Just have new steri strips and go back in another week for another look at everything and get the clear and a lesson to start massaging! Cleared to shower and let me tell you how wonderful that was! Well, euphoric wise, still had a bit of discomfort trying to wash my hair, but I just ended up flipping my head over and washing that way “brought my head to me” lol. I woke up SUPER sore yesterday, like as if I did 3hrs of chest workouts the day before lol. Which come to find out, doc said most likely I over did it and that was the cause of my soreness..which I guess cleaning the house is over doing it so I was told to keep taking it easy till I see him again next week. Ooooops ???? restless and the in laws coming over overtook me lol my fiancé helped me clean, but I till took it upon myself to do more than just supervise ha. I also drove for the first time yesterday too, classes started back so that was fun. Basically had to hold my bag like it was a pet to ensure I wasn’t straining my chest lol. We also felt that it looked like my breast shifted inward some too and thought possibly that could have been the reason for the soreness, esp bc I was having major midline spasms as the morning progressed. But ultimately, I believe it was overexertion. I am still pretty swollen, esp on my chest and my doc said that’s normal and not surprising considering the leanness to my chest pre op and muscle definition.
Anyways. No more granny bra!! I had bought a brilliant contours bra pre op, but didn’t take it to my surgery, but took it as my “first sports bra” graduation from granny bra lol SO MUCH more comfy.
Okay I’m done rambling. Will prob update after second post op next week!
Mwah

Hiiiii! I am sitting two (well kinda 3) days post op, surgery was Wednesday 3/14! Today is the first day with no major pain or need for the pain pills...however, I have an extremely high pain tolerance ha. I am still extremely uncomfortable though, mostly from the lack of activity but also from my extreme swelling! I basically can’t even see my cleavage due to the swelling...and oddly enough, I am really swollen under my pits! And that’s the semi painful swelling area. Side boob is major lmao. Def praying as the d&f and swelling goes down they will come together much more bc they seem extremely far apart to me right now, which is not what I wanted (but I know I had a lot of pectoral muscle to have to loosen up and they may stay semi apart)...but could also have part to do with how much chest swelling I have overall. But I am really hoping the swelling will really dissipate soon for it is causing most of my discomfort it seems. I have iced a lot more today too in hopes of alleviating some of the swelling. Sleeping on my back sucks! My ribs and back have been hurting some today too causing major discomfort, but I’ve been using a heating pad on my back. My abs are gonna be super strong once I’m recovered too ???? my recovery nurse kept telling me abs and legs. And omg you don’t realize how much you use your pec muscles until you can’t/they hurt!
Update on size: went with 350cc natrelle memory gel in both sides, inframammary insertion. In recovery, I was told that there was now way 400cc would have fit bc it wouldn’t have allowed my incisions to close. Aka bummer, but also good to know I literally went my max that my anatomy allows. My nipples already have sensation as do the top portion of my breast. I was not instructed on any massaging thus far, thinking my ps will mention at my post on tues 3/20.
I’ll update after my post op appt!

I went for my pre-op yesterday and I am exactly two weeks out today. We did another try on and ultimately decided again with 350cc HP mentor memory gel silicone implant. The nurse was initially helping me with try on and I wasn't set to see the Dr for the final decision, but he actually ended up coming in to just be present so I ask his final opinion again....and he feels for what I want and my size, leanness, etc that the 350 are best--the 400cc were going to get more into that 'I am trying to look like I have fake boobs' concept he said (my doc is very honest), esp bc the ones he would use fell more into the ultra high profile range & were a totally different implant brand. And he said if we could make 400cc fit he'd want to do a different type (ssx?) for a lesser chance of rippling because I am so lean up top, and of course those were more expensive and I had JUST paid soo lol. And honestly, wearing the two implants in the bra, the 350 just felt so much better! Immediately the 400 were semi uncomfortable with my back, like a noticeable wow these will be a little heavy and since they projected more than 350 I just felt like I was a wannabe Dolly Parton almost haha. I am still a little anxious with it all and still truly do not want to feel like I should have gone bigger, but ultimately I am confident with my decision on the size I did. Now this no drinking and no ADHD meds (I'm a student w/ semi severe adhd) for the next two weeks (4 for drinking) sucks!!

ps. Adding pics of the 400cc from the try in yesterday to compare to the above with the 350cc in.
