Well I had a scare but at my first post op visit the nurse said the lump I felt was the edge of the implant. I sure hope so!!! Still worries me a little hit other than that I feel great! Can't wait to go bikini shopping and bra shopping. Speaking of bikinis... Anyone ever wear a strapless top? Is it supportive or annoying? Idk my cup size yet but I would say I'm going to be a 32 d or 32 dd :) which is exactly what I wanted. They aren't as swollen right now but I hate mornings. Seems like when that the worst. Also anyone know about sunbathing or going to tannin bed? I have inframmory incisions so I know is should keep them covered for a year and Away from the sun but what about going to the beach which I will do this summer ALOT. We live next to the beach. Should I cover my incisions when I tan along with my boobs til they've dropped bc I know skin is stretched out and will burn easier. I know to cover my incisions though. Anyone have any ideas???

Hi! I just had my surgery on Wednesday and a couple of days ago I found a lump on my left breast that worries me. It's at the upper part of my breast towards my arm pit. My incisions are below the breast so I don't know If this is built up scar tissues or what?!? Now I felt my right breast yesterday and there's one there as well but a little lower and more toward the outside of my boob. I go for one week post op appointment on Thursday but until then I'm really worried and stressing about it!?! Is this normal or has anyone ever experienced it? I may call my surgeon tomorrow morning to see what he has to say until I go for my appointment on Thursday. I can push in on it and it feel like a small rock and I can move it and it doesn't hurt horribly but it's not pleasant. It's a little tender and it returns to the same spot. Please help!

Congratulations...you did it and you look great! Try not to worry about the little bumps. They could be as simple as air bubbles, which is quite common. Were you able to get in touch with your surgeon today? Sounds like you're going to see your him very soon, which is great. Keep us updated!
