Back to the grind
Well I'm on day 5ish post op and just went back to work today (office job). I was pretty tired and sore after but all and all it wasn't bad. I did have to ask people to help me reach for things a couple times but not a big deal. I've been feeling all the emotions lately, I'm so happy I did this for me, sad the time I had at home recovering went so fast and now I'm back to the grind, anxious to see how they change over time, but really overall I'm happy. I saw the Dr and his nurse for my post op appointment Dr said I look great and they are moving well. I love looking at them, even though they look a little roughed up lol bruised with bandages around my areola. I'm trying not to get too attached to the size they are now because I know they'll be changing as the swelling fades and they drop and fluff. I haven't tried on any of my bikinis yet which will be a huge test for me because really to fill in a bikini top has always been a dream of mine, but like I said I'm waiting a little longer to let them settle and be more "realistic". I did wear a tight undershirt under my clothes today and that looked awesome to see me with boobs, but I do love that with a flowy type shirt you can hardly see a huge difference. I don't want to walk up to my son's sporting events and have everyone look at me strange lol. Attaching a little before and after in my post op bra :) still swollen this was on Sunday and my procedure was Thursday.
It's done!!!
Well I did it and I have to say I was honestly way more nervous 2 days before surgery than I was in surgery day. About 2 days before I had a mini panic attack for no particular reason just thinking of all the unknowns. My surgery went so well, I wasn't even really nervous, I went in, changed and spoke to the nurse and then the anesthesiologist. Then the doctor came in and answered any last minute questions which I did actually have since I had done so much prep and question asking before hand. Then they walked me back into the OR, I made a couple jokes laughed with the staff and then next thing I knew I woke up in recovery! I was super worried about how I'd feel after anesthesia since I'd never had it before but really I was just super tired. I threw up a tiny bit after the elevator, the whole way home (luckily only about 3ish miles) I just kept saying "oh good almost home, I just want to lay down" I got home, ate a bit, took some pain medication and slept for about 3 hours. By day 3 (yesterday) I was still sore and swollen but feeling like myself. I got up and got dressed (with the help of my husband) and sat in the yard while we BBQ'd. I'm still pretty sore and swollen but happy to say it's all been tolerable. I go in tomorrow for my first post op visit, can't wait to get a full peek!! At this point the hardest time for me has been sleeping and resting sitting up. My tailbone is killing me! But I've just been getting up and walking when I can even outside a bit for some sunshine, feels amazing! Hopefully tomorrow the nurse will let me switch into in of the cozy front closure bras I bought and I will post some after shots!
Big day is almost here!!
My boob day is almost here!! I've been riding an emotional roller coaster between excited/nervous/anxious and obsessing with my size choice, I go between worrying about being to small and worrying about being too big. But I'm feeling confident with my choice at this point. And then even though I know I'm going to be in pain with tons of pressure, I'm most concerned about how the anesthesia will affect me since I've never been under general anesthesia before. I'm super concerned about nausea and headaches (I'm a headache prone person with no help) I did buy some ginger chews and I've asked the doctor for an anti nauseous medicine to have as well. I am feeling pretty well prepared I've picked up my medications already and purchased a few front zip bras for post op and a nice cozy zip up hoodie a bit over sized to wear home after surgery.
Provider Review
Everything has been great! Dr. A is very experienced and knowledgeable. The staff has been incredible and also very knowledgeable. I've been able to see Dr. A's work live and in color and I can't wait for my turn
