Beautiful! You have dropped and settled and they look amazing! I love seeing the progress you've made over the month!!! Looking awesome!
Thanks Ruby!!!
...still sore though. Still wake up every morning feeling sore and kinda swollen. How long before u had no soreness or sensitivity whatsoever??
By 4 weeks I noticed a big difference. I'm 5.5 weeks now. And I feel pretty much back to normal. I never had a whole lot of swelling from the beginning. My breasts have looked about the same from the 2 week mark on. But the muscle soreness took about 4 weeks to really go away
I am 4 weeks and one day today, so hope fully things go back to normal soon :)
BTW, I was just looking at your pics again and yours look AWESOME!! They don't look as big as mine (I wish mine were a bit smaller) and I have 335cc.
Wow looks good.. I'm having mine done 8/28!!! How did you feel 9 day post op? I'm planning on going back to work 8-9 days...

Getting impatient...

Still kind of sore and sensitive. Up to just yesterday, my left boob felt like it was healing wonderfully. It was not hurting or sensitive at all, it was always my right one that was very sensitive when I would do certain things. Now all of a sudden my left boob is really bothering me. I saw my PS yesterday and he says it is normal to still feel sensitive. My back is still killing me as I can still only sleep on my back, when I try and sleep on my side they kind of bother, so being all night in the same position is taking it’s toll. Just getting really impatient...want to feel “normal”.

You look amazing! Your breasts are beautiful! I started feeling pretty close to normal this week at 4 weeks. I still have problems sleeping on my side or flat but my couch is super comfy. I am able to turn side to side on the couch more comfortably than in my bed. I know it's hard to be patient but you will be back to normal really soon!' And with beautiful breasts!
Thank you so much!!! Last night I slept like a baby thank God! My husband suggested I wear a tighter sports bra instead of the ones I have been wearing to sleep which are a bit looser. It was amazing, I could not sleep completely on my side but I was able to move around a lot more. So stupid me should have figured that out weeks ago. Lol
I am so glad to hear someone else say this. I'm like 28 or so days out and my left still will sometimes randomly hurt me after days of everything feeling fine. Would just like it to keep feeling better.
Yes everyone heals differently. I'm almost 7 weeks and feel a lot better, no more pain in either breast unless I do certain things. I worked out yesterday for the first time since surgery and couldn't do sit-ups cause it kinda hurt. Hope u feel better soon ;)

Second Post-op

I went to my second post-op appointment yesterday and PS says everything looks great. The pain in my right breast may be because I am right handed and tend to do a lot more with that arm (which is true), like reaching up for plates or cups in the cupboard, reaching over to turn off my light on my nightstand, etc. So I’m taking it easy as I want to make sure I don’t hinder my healing. The only issue I completely forgot to go over with him is how sometimes my incision on the bottom of both my breasts stings, anyone experience this??

Btw - your girls look awesome! Great some and they both look exactly the same. Hoping mine will even out!!
You look great!
U look great
Thank you!!! Feeling a lot better. A few days ago I was crying cause I thought I went too big, now I hope they won't go down that much more. Lol ;)

My friend had the same issue, but she told me it went away with time. You look awesome! Happy Healing. :)

Thanks Kate! The stinging is less now but has not gone away completely. I just can't wait to feel "normal", I still feel a bit swollen and my nipples are kind of sensitive.
