The Girls Are Dropping Nicely

Hello Ladies!, alot has changed during the days following my 1 week post op appointment with Blaine. She removed my sterile strips from my incisions and showed me how to properly perform breast massages. I had concerns about the way my breast were formed and she patiently explained to me, it was early and they will look different next week and EVERY week after will look different as well. I'm still wearing my surgical bra at night, and my Brilliant Contours Butterfly bra during the day. At the moment my boobs look great but have more dropping to do of course. I've started to wear silicone strip on my incisions for scar therapy. I'm doing 10 sets of breast massages on each breast 3 x day sometimes even more, they get REALLY soft the more I do it. I asked Blaine when can I go about piercing my nipples and she adamantly expressed to wait for 6 weeks due to a high risk of getting an infection. I'm SO glad I listened because I swear the next day I realized my nipple numbness is over!!!!! I have complete sensation on my left breast, and there's a path directly under my right nipple that hasn't returned yet. Both nipples are back in action, I'm so relieved and blessed for these turn of events.... I have also started a regimen of massaging bio oil into my breast during my massages to combat stretch marks which have been doing wonders so far, (fingers crossed). I have also noticed I've been waking up on my side lately with some serious morning boob, that some kneading massages with moderate pressure relieves in seconds. Overall I'm more than satisfied with my results, though I'm expecting them to not stay even as the dropping and fluffing continues. I will update in a few days or sooner if any changes arises. All my ladies and ESPECIALLY my Blaine ladies HAPPY HEALING!!!

Hello Ladies!!!, it's been one week since my breast augmentation!!!!
I must say I'm unfortunately at that arkward stage where everything looks weird, feels weird and will be weird. My boobs are dropping unevenly and I can't stand it, I'm a little worried because I feel like they are SHAPED different as well. My left boob is rounded with a slight curve to it, and my right boob is sorta oblong like and dead center. I see my PS later on today and I will be asking questions because I'm not feeling it at all. I haven't been in any pain for the last 4 days or so, some morning boob that's not so bad and definitely easy to deal with. Im hoping I don't wind up with deformed boobs. :-(

Girl, I am now starting to relax after I took the Percocet. I was shaking, tense and cold because of affects from the anesthesia. That tense pain squeezing my breasts, OMG!! I wanted to pass out lol now, I'm feeling a bit more mellow, laying up. But man, what a day

give your boobs,time. mine were the same way you are describing, and now almost 4 months postop, they have really dropped and look way better. they have not fully healed yet, you are still so EARLY in your recovery. look at my pictures, and you will see the progression. Good luck with the rest of your recovery. And try not to worry too much, they will even out

Hey girl.... glad your pain is manageable.... so sorry you have anxiety over your boobs' awkward phase.... from almost every photo of implants that are placed umder the muscle- the all look big rectangular looking but omly because the pec muscles are super pissed off at you right now for the large objects forcing them out of their previously comfy space next to your ribs... ;-) combined with the inflammation which are both typical symptoms of the process. Look at the high boobage as a great place to start so when they drop.. they drop nicely into the pocket behind your nipples instead of starting at your nipples and falling behind your navel... and the extra rectangular shape of the pec muscles- just take the perspective that its a great way to assess the quality of your muscle before you get back to the gym.... you obviously have enough muscle to make an impact on it..so be proud that all that work with the weights has paid off!!! ... ;-) ... lol.. a little humor to lift your spirits......hope you're smiling and not cursing my screen name right now... you're going to laugh but I actually look forward to the photos of the big rectangular boobs.. its a nice chance to hgett a peek at the shape of the pec muscle...lol... hey... in my defense... it says "gym rat" right on the headline of my profile... hahahaj... smile girl..m your boobs are cool...big perky boobs... just finding a good place to settle in and get comfy... xo You can just tell they are going to be GORGEOUS! !!!!! I'm super jealous right now.... if you doubt what I'm saying.... go back and look at your before photos and then at your new perky boobs and just love them..just as you would a little kid.... just because. .. xoxoxo

I woke up at 8:30 am with a pain level of 7/10. Morning boob kicked my butt today. I h
ad a very difficult time getting up. Thank goodness my mom was upstairs to hear me. She opened my pill bottles for me and retrieved my ice pack. At 2pm went back to the office for my follow up appointment, my surgeon wasn't there so I saw the PA. He said I looked great for 1 day, which made my day Lol. He also scheduled me for next Wednesday, so Blaine can assess me and demonstrate breast massages. After the pain subsided I felt pretty good, I still have pressure and some discomfort along the sides and bottom of my breast. Im very bloated and look like im 4 months pregnant. I have yet to have a bowel moment, but I have Dulcolax, Colace and fleet enemas on deck if i start feeling discomfort. BTW my brilliant contours bras came in the mail today, earlier then expected. They are beautiful and fit just right, I forgot to ask if I can start wearing them so I'll wait and call tomorrow to see what they say. I'm still in shock that I finally have the boobies I always dreamed about, patiently waiting for them to D&F. Lmao

You look great! I'm looking into your same size and HP- any reason why you chose the HP over moderate plus?

Hey girl!! How are u feeling?? I'm just two days away myself, nerves are kicking in

I have not purchased the scar cream yet. I plan to buy tomorrow and use in conjuction with the silicone strip for maximum results.
How are you feeling? How's the journey going so far?
