On June the 2nd I had my first consult with Morris Ritz. I was really scared and my heart was beating fast the whole time. I had photos taken and I tried different implants to see what I thought. I only wanted a small implant that filled the sagging as I am a highly active person. I went back on July 7th for another consult to talk more as I was so scared about doing it. I then booked in for today 19th of July. I went through it and all went well...I think.
The hospital staff were fabulous and made
Me feel at ease. Sitting in bed watching movies and taking my pain killers.

I woke up feeling really sore in my chest, especially my sternum. I felt agitated by the drains as the tubes were stuck to my stomach and were itchy. I didn't feel pain as such but more pressure on my chest like I was hit by a bus. I got up and had a sponge bath in the bathroom sink. I have discovered having baby wipes is good as you can clean yourself with those and you just feel a whole lot better being clean. Without having to shower and get the breasts wet.
At 11, I returned to the surgery and had the drains removed...strange feeling but relieved to get them out. The surgeon said they looked good and he was happy. I've been lifting my arms up and stretching my chest out. It helps relieve the pressure.
The more I moved around the better I felt, I think it distracts you from the pain. I kept taking my pain relief, I didn't feel much pain but I didn't want to either, so I just kept taking them. I have been taking Metamucil and a probiotic a few days before surgery and will continue to do so as I have read so many reviews about being bloated and constipated. This helped, as today I passed a soft stool and my stomach isn't bloated, yet. I remained in bed most of the afternoon watching Netflix and getting up and walking around every hour.
At some points I was feeling really quite good moving around but I was conscious not to over do anything, so I would go back to bed and rest.
Overall the pain isn't too bad, just pressure and it hurts the most when you start to move after being still for awhile.
Oh, and I had 250cc under the muscle smooth round implants. I wasn't after a size increase as such, just wanted to make them full again so I can wear bathers again (which I haven't for many, many years.)

Had a good nights sleep without the drain tubes. I only woke up once and took some more medication. I fell back to sleep straight away. I woke up and could move a lot easier than the previous morning. Today I have been very tired and slept both morning and again in the afternoon. My breasts feel like they have a lot of pressure on them. I had to remove my surgical bra for a few hours to relieve the pressure. I also have a compression tube to wear on top of my bra, so I just wore that for a few hours. The most pressure is where my stitches and tape are.
I decided to stop taking the medication today as it makes me so sleepy.
Just been resting, drinking water and watching Netflix!
