39 Years Old... 36 DDD Hopefully Going Down to a Large B or Small C - Gainesville, FL

It's been a while, I have just been healing and catching up on housework I couldn't do for like 6 weeks. I am healing well.. I use cocoa butter and Resinall K and all looks good. I still think I am too big, I wanted to be B cup, but I am a 36C. I just wanted to update you all. I am very happy with my decision to get a reduction, and I hope they get a bit smaller(without losing perkiness) Good luck to those considering this surgery, it is definitely a decision I wish I had made years ago.

I have to say. This has been the best day since this all started. I didn't see my PS today, but saw his assistant, who took of the dreaded Ace Bandage. I was able to see the girls fully for the first time. She said they are healing beautifully, they are nice and soft, and cleared me for showers and ibuprofen and herbal supplements! Now I just have to keep them clean and dry for 2 weeks until they take out the undissolvable stitches on the 20th. After seeing her, I went to my holistic doctor, who made me feel even better. He did some acupressure and massage and gave me some herbal pain relief which is working wonderfully. I really recommend that anyone who is going through such a major deal get an acupuncturist or holistic doctor to provide care for you. I saw his partner the night before the surgery and it did wonders for me the day of. I feel great. I know they look rough, a rainbow of bruises.. but they are coming along nicely. I can't complain.
This picture is pre-shower. But let me tell you, it was the best shower ever! Right up there with the one I took during labor with my son. Very cleansing. I got some all natural Shea Butter soap from the Fresh Market. So.. I can't use anything on the incisions yet... because of the glue. Hoping for a great recovery!

I finally get out of the Ace today, and get to take a real shower! I also get to go see my acupuncturist so I am thinking I will get some relief today. I think yesterday has been my worst day pain wise. I think I turned my torso funny while sleeping and my right breast was really hurting all day. Trying to take it easy is NOT easy. I took the last pain pill I plan to take on Sunday night. I still have some, so the jury is still out on that. I have caught a couple glimpses as the ace has been falling off, but I will actually get an unrushed clean look today. I am nervous. Hope all goes well. I have been feeling generally weak and nauseated. Hope this gets better soon. I will post pictures without ace soon. Be well all my co- reducers. Peace.
