So, tomorrow is my big day -August 9, 2013. I'm excited and nervous! I am excited I will finally have the volume and bust I have desired for years but I am super nervous about the price of pain that comes with the augmentation.
I researched tons of doctors in the Washington, DC area and even in the Atlanta, GA. I settled on Dr. Ricardo Rodriguez, a Baltimore area PS with 25 years experience. He has a host of blogs , where discusses various cosmetic procedures in-depth.
I am 5'7 and 150lbs. My pre-nursing bra size was a 34C , after nursing for one year I am a 34B (a very small , almost A, B). I am having a transaxillary 450cc silicone breast aug.

The pain is mostly in my back and in my stomach (gas & constipation). Motrin 800 mg controls the pain...

Okay so it was Monday about an hour and ten minutes ago, and now it's Tuesday (4th day). On Sunday after the drains were removed , I felt real good. I took one Motrin 800mg to ease the back pain I was having. My main issue has been the back pain since day one! Also I've been a gassy and constipated since the drains were removed. Overall, I feel good. Eating regularly and moving around. On my 3rd day, I felt like I could drive.. So I did! Bad decision. The 10 minute drive to and 10 minute drive back from my son's school killed my body! I think it was all the arm movement... I had to take a Percoset when I came home to get rid of the pain. I won't do that again... I have my 5 day post op on Wednesday to talk about the positioning of the bottom of my breast, whether I need to continue wearing a surgical bra, wire bra, or band on the bottom on my breast.
