So I'm 6 days post op and each day I am happier...
So I'm 6 days post op and each day I am happier and happier. Not going to lie, the first time I looked at them at home before I showered I did have a total freak out and thought I looked like Barbie which is ironic because I so didn't go that big so now each night before showering I'm trying to spend some time with the girls getting used to them. It definitely helps. Pain wise I'm in a good place. I stopped taking pain meds on day 5. I feel achy and get twinges here and there but otherwise ok. I feel discomfort with certain movements so am testing my limits gradually. I can get my arms over my head but can't hold a blow dryer yet. I started getting nervous that I don't have much pain and actually posted it as a question elsewhere on this site. I know I always have to have something to worry about lol. I can see my left breast which was lower to begin with is still slightly lower but the crease is n the bottom where it is supposed to be coupled with awesome fullness so it doesn't bother me. I have numbness along the bottom half of both breasts but have feeling on the top and the nipples thankfully. So far so good. I go back Thursday. Am hoping I get the ok to wear tank tops with support bras bc I am so over these ugly post surgery bras. But all in good time.
So I'm now three days post surgery. the picture...
So I'm now three days post surgery. the picture above is from the big reveal on day 2. I am REALLY happy with the results. I think my breasts look even and full and beautiful. all my stitches were internal so i barely even have scars. My surgeon spent he spent a significant amount of time on the left smaller side with the fold where the bulk of the internal stitches are (you can see a blue line). My pain is ok. I made it through the bulk of the morning and ran a few errands without taking a pain pill and now just took my first one. My chest feels very tight and full and like I did a lot of weight lifting. I'm still trying to be cautious but occasionally forget and go to grab something but its really not bad at all and I don't see myself needing them much longer. Looking forward to showering in a few days but my husband will have to help me wash and dry my hair. My breasts are not huge, but they are beautiful!
So I underestimate how long the anesthesia stays...
So I underestimate how long the anesthesia stays in your system because once it wore off around 10 at night I was feeling lousy Almost like my milk was coming in coupled with 1 million pushups, pull ups and dips. But the pain meds definitely help. I just have to keep reminding myself to ask for help. First post op in a few hours. Very excited to see everything.
