BA this morning 11/9/12

Next month will be a full 6 month post-op. I am LOVING my new boobs. However, the only thing that frustrates me is that I am still not able to wear bras with underwire/push-up. I know that I don't really need them since I am already so perky. it's just I want them to look good in things other than a bandeau and a granny bra. That's okay...at least come summer I'll be looking good in my bikini tops lol. I have been doing great with the healing process. Occasionally I will get a shooting pain where the incisions are...did anyone else have this issue? I hope my scars fade some more as time goes on. I bought the 60$ scar guard from the PS and it hasn't really helped a whole lot. Can anyone recommend anything else that worked for them? Not too concerned with the price as I am the quality of the product. Hope everyone has been healing well, too and had a great Easter. I will post pics

Well today is post-op day 18. I am free of pain and have been for some time, but still feeling a bit of pressure first thing in the morning. More so from my left breast...I assume because that is the one that is still a bit high up. In general they both have some more "falling" to do. I developed Mordan's band/cord? within the last few days. I will post a few updated pictures below, one of them being of the cord. I called my PS and they said it basically is from pissing off the blood vessel. It could have been something I did recently, or something that happened during surgery. Unfortunately it is pretty uncommon...so I am hoping this isn't a foreshadowing of other unlucky/uncommon issues to come. FORTUNATELY, it will go away in time and is not detrimental to me and/or the implant. According to them I can take anti-inflammatory's and more compresses and it will go away shortly. They did tell me that this is not a prelude (if you will) to any future occurrences.

I had family in from thanksgiving and nobody seemed to notice. Then again I was in sweaters and tee shirts, not bathing suits and tank tops. LOL! My sister actually happened to bump me and said "wow, they're soft". I was confused, as was my husband because they are the opposite.

I am getting antsy in my pantsy to know what size I wear. Also, I was wondering for any of you that are post-op and all healed. My PS said at week 4 I can begin to take it slow and start running. I worry that by then my implants will not have fully dropped. Did any of you encounter this? If so, would it still be okay? I will probably call closer to then (Dec 7th) to make sure I am still good to go!

Hope you all enjoyed your Thanksgiving :)

Well today is Post-op day 10/11 (depending if you count surgery as Day 1, or not). I have been essentially free of pain for a few days. I have a little bit of pain when I first wake up & all that new weight is pushing down on my incisions (crease incision). After a bit, it almost entirely eases up. My left has looked great for a few days, my right is coming down slowly but still is a little high and I have armpit sideboob still a bit. I am still not entirely regular in the bathroom, but am still taking stool softeners. I started taking Vit E 1000 units, as directed by my PS after my 1 week post-op appointment. I tried on a few of my bathing suit tops and have to say... I am sooo stoked. I am so glad I decided to do it this time of year so I will be all healed for summer.

The biggest frustration I have is not being able til run until week 4. December 7th is the day, and man am I counting down. I can't do any upper body work outs until week 6. Great, I am going to be all flabby for Christmas. LOL!

Hope you all are healing/doing well and hope everybody has a great Thanksgiving. I will update after as I have family coming up. If you have read my previous posts, then you know I did not tell ANY FAMILY. I am curious to see if they notice and will post on how that "coming out" goes, if warranted. lol
