They're dropping yay

$6,500
I don't know how long it's been but every time I look at them they look better & better. They've definitely dropped a bit and a good amount of the swelling has gone down. A few days ago I decided to give the compression bra a break and started wearing the forever21 sports bras which also have a lot of compression & are more comfortable. I do have a problem area on the right areola, a tiny spot taking forever to close. I started using neosporine and a bandage over it and the discomfort stopped and its closing now. By the way, I find myself turning on my side in my sleep without problem. So yay! Just a little update until my one month visit on sept 23rd!

1 Week Post Op Ap.

So I just had my one week post op appointment and got the bandages off and some of the stitches cut out. They're dissolvable stitches though so the rest will just eventually be gone. I have sensation in both nipples now and ALOT of itching! I'm still sleeping on my back and I still have to wear the compression bra, well, it's recommended to still wear them. I'm also now cleared to use mederma, Yay! I am sooooo happy with my results so far, can't wait for the scars to fade now ??

We had our surgery on the same day! I just got some of my stitches out today too. You seem to be healing really well and I really like the size you went down to.
I like your after pictures too! He made me a B cup and i still have some dropping to do. I'm in love with my new figure in clothes! Have you gone out anywhere yet and put something on that fit really different?
I seen you yesterday whatever you were leaving.
:) hi!
U were with a guy and u were walking slightly bent over? Around 5pmish
Yea, that was definitely me
Cool how you feeling
Your breast look great, very symmetrical! Looks like a good size for your body, what is your cup size now?
My compression Bra is a 34B! :) Thank you, thanks to my surgeon!

5 Days Post Op

So a little update. On day 3 my bowels went back to normal, I started itching a little bit but now I'm itching a lot. I'm happy at this point and the swelling is not as bad as day 1. I've been going through some other stuff as well so this is nothing for me compared so I'm just waiting for my 1 week post op appointment so they can take the stuff off me and at least tell me when I can stop sleeping on my back. I'll post pictures on Thursday after my one week

Sounds like your recovery is going well but prepared to sleep on your back for a good while longer hun, I was not able to sleep on my side for the first 3 weeks. Take care x
Omg! Thanks for telling me
How do you stay on your back while you sleep? I'm always turning over into my side or stomach. Not sure how to stay on my back! Any tips?
I have no idea to be honest, I guess my body just knows
