Had my Consult a few weeks back, excited, my surgery date is 10/7/15 and I know it will go slowly, ha!
Never felt like I could fill out my bra cups, they gap and I'm not overly tiny so XS in some bikini tops dig into my sides, but are sometimes too big for my cup size. Tired of padded bras and not having the freedom to go braless in dresses, tanks and sports bras just flatten horribly.

Hi, glad I found you- I searched for someone who has the same surgery date as I do!
I plan to post before pics very soon. This website has been very helpful.

Day 1 Post Op

These are pics from last night, my Day 1 post-op.
Color looks funny, but they look less high and swollen than I expected.

Pain meds help with the soreness, there is no way I would be able to safely drive right now for sure!!

Wearing the compression band to push them down, it is uncomfortable (wear for 2 weeks)
Also have on a sports bra and some gauze padding so it creates a barrier between my incision site and the bra.

Showered last night as I saw my dr in the morning and was given the okay to after my post-op.
Had one bout of nausea on the car ride home but felt fine ever since.

I have noticed the more I move my arms, the more sore I am later, booo!

My surgery experience was great, day of was easy, day 1 post op and now on Day 2 post op, more soreness but totally bearable. Hardest thing is getting out of bed and into, it swallows me whole! Sleeping with pillows to prop me up some.

You too, looking good. Crazy how just a couple days makes a big difference, I so want mine to feel normal already though and I don't have a ton of sensation yet. I hear it flip flops the other way though and in a couple weeks they will be over sensitive to the point of a soft cotton sports bra can bother them...oh boy!

They look really good! Congrats and keep resting up.
I'm finding that an ice pack laid across the top of chest feels really soothing. I've also started rubbing Arnica gel on the entire boob ( except incision), don't know if it helps but it can't hurt anything I don't think.
I slept in my bed for first time last night. It was my friend's couch for first two nights post op and I'm so happy I tried it!:)

Hi, I tried the Arnica cream and am using Cocoa butter too, cause it just feels nice since they are tight and itchy too.

Happy healing!
