3 weeks post BA revision _ New Pics
WORTH IT$5,000
All is good at 3 weeks and really getting used to my new girls. I have some tingling or 'zingers' in my nipples, they are super sensitive but other then that my boobs feel good. I still forget sometimes when I go to reach something high or lift something heavy & they get sore, especially around the incision, but I have to remind myself its still early days, its so easy to forget when youre feeling good! Am still wearing the strap day & night which I cant wait to get rid of, its so hard to disguise it under clothes & it doesnt give the nicest shape! Not able to lie on my stomach yet either, it doesnt feel right or comfortable, they ache if I try so Im happy enough to stay on my side for now. I cannot WAIT to get running. Im walking every day & doing a gentle spinning class but its not the same. I feel heavy & bloated & really looking forward to getting back to my old routine. How hard is it to take pics when you have small kids??!! I dont know how many times I've gone to my room to take some & my daughter appears to see what Mum is up to, she is funny! Anyway I managed to take a few.
My recovery all in all is going well, my post of blues have lifted, (as I knew they would!) each day gets easier & they are starting to feel like part of me. Hope all you ladies are doing good xx

2 weeks post
Hi ladies am officially 2 weeks post op & having sutures removed today, but the blues have hit me big time I'm afraid! Have felt very down the last few days & am disappointed with the size of my scars. I had a close look at them when changing my dressing & they are at least 2.5 times bigger then my last incisions. PS told me they would be 'a little' larger due to changing the plane of the implant & the larger size implant. But I didn't expect this. They seem really long, almost visible from the sides of my breasts. My last incisions were completely invisible by month 6 & they were very neat & small. Argh..! I hope these fade as well. Am also fed up not being able to run, it's not good for my mental health & I'm really missing it. Am feeling very stuck. Think I'll start walking & cycling this week just to be doing something. I think I've gained about 7lbs- not comfortable with that! I hate feeling like this, so sorry for moaning. Hopefully these blues will pass & I'll be back to being happy with my new girls! Hope all you ladies are doing good. This site is such a support system, don't know where I'd be without it! X

How are you feeling today? A longer scar may be annoying but from what I've seen once they are well healed ( as in a few years out) they are barely visible anyway so 2 inches or 4 inches probably won't make a difference in the long run. Must be annoying not being able to work out like you once did how about something like aerobics which isn't too high intensity and won't make them bounce around?

Hi Molly- just came from your page! Yea I know once they fade it hopefully won't make a difference I just got tearful when they were bigger then I expected! I took good care of my last scars, used bio oil which was great & they completely disappeared so I'll do the same this time. Starting spinning this week & am going to go for long walks every evening- nothing can take the place of running though, I miss it!! Will be worth it though ;)

Oh yeah, I just got a letter from my dr telling me I am medically classed as being the owner of a saggy pair! Wahoo!! Spinning is probably a great alternative to running, huge calorie burn but not as bouncey. I did it last week for the first time in a few months and the next day, ow it hurt! Are they settling nicely? Are you glad you had the revision?
August 2, 2013
Yes definately glad I had the revision, although i didnt hate them, they did sit too high & looked a little round and fake. Im much happier with how theyre starting to look now, natural & fuller on the bottom which is what I wanted. Ill post some more pics soon.Hey you are not that saggy at all! I was pretty similar to you, you'll be so happy with a modest implant I think it will look so natural. You have a great frame very slim. What a great christmas present to yourself!!

Wow girl another surgery!! I think I might need another one too. My left side is still a little higher And it's not dropping like I would want. I see the PC in a couple days for my 4mth check up. Now the question I want to ask did u had to pay for the revision and bigger implants?
August 3, 2013
Hi Sawyers, Yes another surgery- not a decision I took lightly but after going through surgery (a huge deal for me) not to mention the cost, I decided I deserved to be happy with my result. My PS was not happy with how they were sitting so tight under the muscle either, Is it the same for you? See what your PS says when you see him. And no, there was no cost for the revision just the small fee to cover the larger implants but that was my choice. If I had stayed with the same size there would have been no cost at all. Hope that helps :)

Hi Sweetie first of all I must tell you how slim and fit you look! I totally understand the part you feel down and gaining weight due to not being able to workout, believe my I am struggling with the same thing too. We are so used to working out and it's hard we can barely do anything for several weeks. I'm starting to do more light cardio and some lower body weights but I really miss lifting haha...I hope you feel better soon! Just know that you are not alone :) Hugs!!

Thanks so much Minibear, I know I have to be patient. I tend to pick & nibble more when Im sitting around which doesnt help either!! But thanks for the compliment & your kind words. I hope you get back to yourself soon too. I see you're leaving the site? Best of luck with everything, I loved following your story & seeing how fabulous your result turned out for you. Continue to enjoy them [RS bleep]

Almost 2 weeks post op - New pics!!
Hi Ladies! I will be 2 weeks post op on Thursday. Am feeling really good apart from general weakness in my arms & chest. I still find it hard to get up from sitting, lying, reaching up high or holding anything heavy. other then that I feel great so I actually have to remind myself to rest & that Im still recovering. I went back to work today & got on fine so life is slowly getting back to normal. I get my stitches out on Thursday & am looking forward to that. I feel sore & itchy around my incisions & sometimes get shooting pain there, I don't really remember that last time! But its nothing I cant handle. My results so far are exactly what I always wanted! I'm so very happy!! They look natural to me, sit in a much better position, they were so high last time! When I compare pictures I really am so glad I did this & went through with the revision. I have been busy so I haven't had time to take many pictures but here are a few. Ill post more soon when I get my sutures out. I love the size and can honestly say I wouldn't go any bigger, I feel this is the size for me. Happy healing post op ladies & happy planning to those pre op ladies!
