Day 5, FREAKING OUT about weight gain.
Ok so I KNOW that this seems to be a common problem for women after surgery. But I have a short torso and I am really worried that I look like a short fat blob now. My hourglass doesn't exist I just have chub. I wonder if anyone else has experienced this 5 days after surgery, and not immediately after? I work as a cocktail waitress at a bikini bar so it's important for me to not look frumpy as I worry. I just really want to start being able to do cardio or squats. ANYTHING!? Also I haven't gotten the clear on intimacy yet. Husband is not too happy about that, I wonder if I should call the d.r and ask, or if I should just wait until the 12th for my first post visit. I will upload a photo from my phone of the progress. I am surprised how much motion I have while healing. There is some bruising but nothing near what I was expecting. I also have been pain killer free so that is a big one for me. :)

day 3...trying no pain killers
Today is a bit harder because I haven't had a bowl movement yet and am too scared to take another Norco until I do. I am also worried there will be some asymmetrical results because the surgeon used the same cc implant in both when originally before ba number 1 they were a b and a d. She was aware of.this and chose this however so I am trusting her. I am just loving ice packs right now.

I had my Saline implants replaced to Silicone too. What size did you end up with?

The p.s told me 475 cc but when I was released to go home he thought he heard 450. I will find out and get my mentor card on Nov 12th at my post op. How do you like the silicone?

I love them!!! They feel so much better than Saline yet still nice and firm. I have 450 and 475.

Many women swear by milk of magnesia but do call your pharmacist as the constipation can be worse than your breast pain! Give yourself a few weeks before you judge your size and results. I think you look great in your pictures. Excited to hear what you think about the silicone versus the saline. Congratulations!

11/7 - Milk of magnesia did the trick and I am back to normal routine. Thank you very much. So far the silicone feels immediately softer than the saline did. We will see!

Oh I'm so glad to hear the milk of magnesia worked! I have heard similar comments about silicone being softer. Keep us posted!
