5+ weeks post
Over five weeks already. Kinda forget that have implants, feel a part of me. I must be used to the size cuz like many of you I sometimes think I should have gone bigger. But definitely happy with the size. Feeling more softer and squisher; I still can't however squish all the way together.
My left seems smaller and pulls to the side, guess still needs to drop and when I look at old pictures it seems that I naturally have my left nipple that pulls to the side. Hopefully this all straightens out, I know I'm just over a month in and apparently everyone says they change a lot in the first six months... Sometimes I wonder though. I'm really trying hard to stay on top of my displacement exercises but any advice ??
I haven't been sized yet, I'll wait a bit more. I bought some light weight sports bras and comfy Bralettes in sizes small and med. Great feeling to fill them out. :)
Been reading lot about if sports bras are good, some say that they push down too hard on the breasts and don't allow them to drop properly, but then some Bralettes feel like they don't have enough support. I find the surgery bra actually feels quite comfy and supports each breast for sleeping. What have you found with bras in the first couple months? What worked what didn't?? I dont want to jeopardize these babies for the price I paid for them! :)

Two weeks post
Went to my two week post appointment today. All is going good. Got the tape removed and stitches are looking great. Was given some other tape I need to put on every 3-5 days with some scar ointment over top, this should help with the scar healing and being less visible. Have to do this at least until my 6 weeks post appointment.
Breasts still are a bit tight when I wake up but with some stretches this quickly goes away. Still visible bruising on left side, was an awful green/yellow color which is apparently a sign of healing! They haven't dropped too much from last week but are by far a lot softer and less swollen. Trying to do the displacement exercises at least 5 times a day are helping with this. The nurse yesterday also explained that the exercises are to help eliminate scar buildup in the cavity.
Day ten was a huge turnover. I woke up quite sore but through the day I felt my greatest. I stopped taking ibuprofen and Tylenol as I have full range of movement and not too stiff... Stretching seems to work best.
Everyday I feel better, back to normal self but just have to be aware of my activity, especially lifting. This whole experience has been so great compared to what I was expecting!

Post op day 5
Tuesday : woke up today with sore breasts, think I pushed myself too much yesterday. After taking ibuprofen, icing, and doing stretching felt a lot better. My bruising on my left side is still there and quite yellow, it's quite sensitive as well. Apparently the bruising is just from surgery and normal. Throughout the day I've been having tingling sensations don't know if it's those twinges that people talk about but most likely the nerves are healing themselves.
I also had my follow up visit today. Dr says everything is looking awesome. The nurse gave me the serial number for the implants, she also demonstrated how to do displacement exercises 5 times a day to help with the implant settling. It's amazing how they seems to soften already from these exercises. Also was told not to go swimming until 5-6 weeks post. This is unfortunate as we are going to whistler in 2 weeks and the kids will be begging me to go with them.
I also asked about lifting my 2 yrs old. Dr said to avoid as much as possible but realizes it's a reality of motherhood. He suggested to go low to their level and then pick them up and also holding them on your hip is better as the weight is transferred. Was happy to hear this as I have to care for my children but also don't want damage these very expensive babies !
Been having a hard time not having sex with the hubby too! I'm ovulating for one thing and feeling pretty sexy with the new body. The hubby keeps saying such lovely things to me too that makes me feel good. Anyone in the same boat? Is too soon ok? Trying not to go too hard. But any advice?
