This site has been such a brilliant resource that I thought I'd document my own recovery process, and hopefully I can be of some help to anyone considering BA or going through the recovery themselves.
The basic stats: I'm 5'5", 50kg and was a 32A with basically no upper pole. Very slight asymmetry to my breasts. I've always had small breasts, but gravity, age and a little weight loss all contributed to them suddenly being smaller than I realised.
I've never minded my small breasts, until quite recently when I realised just how mini they'd gotten. So I started researching breast augmentation, but I wanted to look as natural as possible, and definitely didn't want to be bigger than a full B / small C. My surgeon recommended 2 options: 210cc or 240cc silicone, round, moderate profile, unders (she'd make a decision on cc size in surgery, depending on how much tissue I had). We talked it over for quite a while, and she is wonderful, so I felt very confident in her ability to choose the right size for my body and for the look I wanted.
Surgery went really well. Everyone was lovely. When I came to, I had no appetite and a really dry mouth, and I was in and out of sleep for 3-4 hours. My body must've been in a bit of shock, because it took 9 hours and the threat of a catheter before I could pee! Groggy and a little nauseated until the next morning, but I slept at a 35-45 degree angle perfectly fine.
POD1 was the hardest to move, and it felt like I had an elephant sitting on my chest. Hurt to breathe and laugh, swollen, and I slept most of the day and night. POD2 was basically a full day of the dreaded morning boob, they were rock solid and so painful. A bit of nausea, lots of sleeping. Today I'm POD3 and it's a mixed bag. The breasts are ok, tight like over-inflated footballs and of course riding very high on my chest, but not too sore. Nipples are completely numb. But the bloating and constipation (and the stomach pain that goes with it) are nearly unbearable. Also a bit light-headed from the meds, and no appetite.
I've added a few pics -- some before, one right before surgery, and two cheeky peeks from POD1.
Happy to answer any questions about prep or recovery so far, but otherwise I'll just pop my progress on here every so often in case it's helpful. Promise later posts won't be as long as this one! A big thank you to all of you ladies who are doing the same, it's really a big help :)

You look good, your surgeon chose the perfect size for you.
November 8, 2016
Thanks so much. I'm looking forward to seeing what these puppies look like in a few weeks :)

November 9, 2016
That's really good advice! Thank you! I hope your body will happily accept your 'little aliens' very soon :) Are you still struggling with bloating and constipation?
November 10, 2016
Actually... I stopped the more serious pain meds on POD3 and switched to Panadol / Paracetemol only, and things have been better since then. Always helps to get out and walk a bit too, but only if you can avoid crowds and people bumping into you!

November 10, 2016
Glad to hear things are improving! Take care of your 'aliens' when you're out walking! (I loved that reference - it's so cute!)

Hi Hun! Congratulations on the new boobies.. I am having my surgery with Linda 21st Nov! So glad to finally see some reviews on her!.. what hospital did you go too?.. I'm so excited I cannot wait I have started my review so pictures will be uploaded once had them done!! Exciting ! Xx
November 10, 2016
Thank you hun! They are a bit funny looking still, being patient is a lot harder than I thought it would be! I was at the Welbeck Hospital with Linda, in London. I think it's a new hospital for her though, and she does procedures at quite a few other ones too.
Congratulations on booking it with Linda, she's a brilliant choice. Excited for you :) xx

Yeah I am the worst at being patient! I can't lol .. ah okay I'm booked through MYA I'm just scared in regards to the mini uplift too xx
November 10, 2016
Ahhh ok, I must have missed that in your posts before. I don't have any experience with uplifts, but you'll be great... you're in the best of hands with her. Everyone recovers a little differently, it seems, but I was expecting to feel a lot worse, and a lot more like an invalid than I feel at the mo. I'm sore and sometimes there's proper pain, but the most frustrating thing is the waiting! xx
November 10, 2016
lol... it was right there in the title of your post! I must've been having a blonde moment. xx
November 10, 2016
I really appreciate your comments! Did you have your implants placed on top of the muscle or beneath the muscle? I have 30 year old on top of the muscle implants that need replacing and I'm trying to decide if I should go under the muscle this time or stay on top.
November 10, 2016
Hi :) Congrats on having had yours for 30 years! I hope mine last that long. My implants were under the muscle. I wanted a very natural look so I'd requested unders when I first met with my PS, but apparently I'm too petite for overs anyway (not enough breast tissue or fat or something to prevent them from being visible). A good PS will be able to make recommendations based on your body type and what you're looking for, and should definitely give you the pros/cons of going with either option. Did you have trouble with overs the first time? I don't know if it's a consideration for you, but post-op recovery is tougher and longer with unders, since your breast muscles have a lot of healing to do. I expect the trauma to your body is greater with unders. But again it depends on what you want. Hope that helps a little!

POD4 - Rock solid and rectangular
pixelleNovember 8, 2016
Tonight they've gone rectangular on me, and the skin feels very tight. Asymmetry accentuated. Still rock solid and sitting high of course. It's a good reminder how early on in the recovery it is, they've got a while to go.
I took them out of the bra and strap for a little while tonight, and put a bit of coconut oil on them. Just around the top and sides. My surgeon specifically said not to put anything on them at all, she couldn't possibly have been clearer... but if I avoided the bandages completely it can't be that bad, right? They just needed to breathe! 20 minutes! I wrapped them back up quickly after catching sight of their shape. No need to look at that any longer than I have to.
The bloating is awwwwful! What do you ladies do for bloating?

POD6 - Incision aching, shape (!!), dry shampoo
pixelleNovember 10, 2016
So far a pretty uneventful day. My right breast has some occasional sharp pains, fleeting, probably just the muscle trying to settle in. The incisions are definitely aching though, and quite uncomfortable.
But the shape!! They'd looked so perfectly round for the first couple of days, and now they're all distorted and crazy looking. A bit rectangular, a bit triangular (see front pic), and each breast has a slight dip when seen in profile (see side shots). I'm trying not to get anxious, but they definitely aren't looking like some of the other ladies on here at the same stage in the process. Early days...
An important pre-op prep point: stock up on dry shampoo! Being unable to wash your hair will make you slightly batty.
Otherwise, I'm keeping up with my post-op vitamins, lots of water and tea. Taking some work calls from home, but I've downloaded all seven seasons of The Shield. Still fighting a bit of nausea so haven't managed enough protein for my muscles so far today.

BTW, don't mind the strange imprints on my skin, the breast band is pressing the lace of the bra into my skin so there are all sorts of weird patterns and shapes. Looks rough, I know! I do have a couple of small bruises on the inside side of each breast, very small, but the rest is bra branding :)

November 10, 2016
What size did you end up with?? Good tip on the dry shampoo!
November 10, 2016
Hi :) I ended up with 210cc in both breasts, my PS couldn't fit the 240s in as I didn't have enough breast tissue. But I was quite scared about ending up too big, so I'm perfectly happy. I started with a full A and apparently it should give me a full B / small C... eventually... *pulls hair out impatiently* Are you looking at implants in the 200 range?

November 10, 2016
Yes, thanks for the reply. I am currently a deflated B and want to be a full B or small C. First consult recommended 275 or 300cc and I'm worried that will be too big.. I have a few more consults on 11/23.. So anxious :) thanks for sharing your journey, it's very helpful.
November 10, 2016
Hmm, I do think the 275/300 cc options would take you over a small C, so definitely get those other consults. And grill them! Don't let anyone railroad you into their definition of beauty, either. I've read some reviews of women who had consults with surgeons that tried to make them go bigger than they wanted. It's your body. (That said, it seems like boob greed is a pretty real phenomenon for a lot of women after surgery, and they wish they'd gone bigger, so maybe your first consult was just trying to preempt that.) Good luck! When you find a surgeon you trust you'll know :)

March 26, 2018
the shape will change when they drop and fluff! they look to me like everyone else’s on here do at first! I can’t wait to see your results in a couple months!!
