Here are a couple more pictures with a shirt on, the bumpiness around the nipples is just the tape over my incisions ... I haven't been able to do this in so long! It feels amazing :)

Almost at the 1 week mark, I figured I'd post another update. There has been literally no pain, my incision sites are itchy, but I think that's just them healing.
My 16 month old son has been really great in avoiding my fragile new boobs... Yeah right. I've got a few toys tossed to the chest and one midnight tantrum boob-head butt which almost landed him a "free baby to good home" add on Kijiji. ;)
They seem to be coming along well, and I'll just be excited to not worry about them anymore (I'm missing our final beer ball tournament next weekend waaaah)
Anyway, here are a couple pictures I just took post shower
Yay no boobs at my belly button!

You look great!!! Can't wait to see your before pics. Did your size change much? You're so tiny, I imagine there wasn't much excess skin in your boobs?..I want to do just a lift with no implants. I'm fine to lose a little size because I am too big up top now that I have no belly.

I gained a LOT of weight with my pregnancy... A mixture of being used to eating whatever I wanted whenever I wanted, and depression while pregnant is what caused it. I went from 115lbs at 5'7 to 192 at my last checkup before delivery. The weight came off easily without any real diet or exercise changes. Thank goodness for good genes and having a baby young! I went from a small, perky C cup pre pregnancy to an E when my milk was in! My aerial tripled in side and my breasts looked more like empty ball sacks on a warm day (pardon the vulgarity but that's the only thing I can liken them too). I couldn't wear v neck shirts or anything that showed the slightest bit of cleavage because my skin just folded up in my bra and there was no way to hide it. The skin would also just kind of slip over the edges of my bra, eventually pulling the entire breast out so I was constantly stuffing skin back in my bra. Not fun. Definitely a much needed surgery for myself and nothing short of freeing.
A real life changer, that's for sure.

I hear you on that! Took me decades to find a bra that would actually WORK for me and now I'm ready to be able to just shop bras and not worry about it. Hoping for early 2014 for me.
Happy to see you have had next to no pain. I was hoping I could take 5 days off and return to work on the 6th day. Might need to do longer but if I can pull it off, that's the goal.

If your job doesn't involve lifting or shuffling through people you should be A-OK for that timeline. I've been doing a lot more than I should be, constantly carrying around a 30lb tyrant and always running errands and now I'm a full week out. Everyone is different but for me, it's more the fear of bumping into things or having someone run into me! Pain and mobility wise, I'm pretty close to 100%.
September 24, 2013
that's awesome!! thanks for the info. At that time of year, I can spend most of my day at my desk!!! No lifting and no crowds which is why I hope for that timeline :)

You look wonderful! Would also like to see the before pics, I bet the difference is sooo big. In a good way ;-) Happy for you!

Just amazing !! This is so what I want for me too! Would love to see before pics

I haven't updated since surgery on the 18th, but the first two days home were remarkably pain free. I was pretty sick and groggy from the anesthesia and T3s but the pain was nonexistent. I stopped taking the T3s yesterday morning (day 3) and have been fine since.
I have full (possibly more?) feeling in both nipples already - which is beyond exciting! And everything seems to be looking great! I have perky little boobs again! Yay!
I go in for my first PO appointment October 5th and I'll try to get my paws on a copy of the before photos for you guys but for now here is a picture I took yesterday (day 3) with my nipples covered and again today (day 4) with everything off.

Wow, you look fantastic! Congratulations! What actually caught me off-guard were your flipping tattooed arms, but after a moment of intense blond concentration I figured out one must be in the mirror and one not.
; )
Looking great and only 4 days po. Pretty amazing! Glad to hear you are feeling well too.
September 23, 2013
Haha yes! Just trying to keep you on your toes ;) thank you for the kind words, it's so freeing to be back in a "normal" body!
September 23, 2013
You look awesome, will you still get the implants? I am doing the same thing as you, if my lift look anywhere as great as yours, I won't get the implants..lol. Enjoy and fast healing..
September 23, 2013
