life has been pretty busy as of late. I can't believe its already been 6 weeks. I don't feel any pain or discomfort anymore. I am still a little numb in the lower part of my breast though. Overall, I really love them. I'm so happy with how they came out and I have no regrets about size, they seem to fit my frame well.
I had my month post-op last week and Dr. Gervais was really impressed with how well they're healing. I got the go ahead to return to exercising with no limitations. I'm really excited to finally get back into running again.

Thanks for updating!! They look so good!!! And yes, my surgery with Dr. G is this Thursday, I'm getting more and more excited everyday! Did you have any complications or tips that I should know for after surgery?

One thing I can say is make sure you eat healthy/don't over eat during the first week. I had surgery two days before thanksgiving and I felt so sick from eating too much food. Also don't put too much stock in how they look right after surgery. They are going to look scary at first until they settle. Lastly, don't be too nervous the day of surgery. I was so scared that I almost wanted to cancel. It'll go by so quickly and before you know it you'll have big, beautiful boobs :)

Over a week!

My first week back to work wasn't bad at all. I've been waking up pretty sore in the morning but that seems to go away once I get moving. I had my week post op on Tuesday and everything looked great. They already seem to be dropping and now that the swelling has gone down I really like the size. I had a bunch of different bralettes that I've been wearing and I think that this Calvin Klein one is my favorite. It's super comfortable and it sits below my incisions. I'll post pictures of those next time.

Hello. They look great! Did you get silicone HP? My surgery is in 2 weeks I'm nervous and excited at the same time. I'm your same height and weight so I was thinking 400 to 425 cc silicone gel.

Thanks! the implants are silicone gel. I have no idea what profile he used though.

Day 5

beefox
I'm feeling so much better today. I can honestly say that the nausea has been the worst part of healing for me. I stopped taking the Vicodin all together after day 2 because I haven't really been in any pain. I haven't even taken Tylenol. I am taking the muscle relaxers though which are helping with the tightness. They still don't really seem like a part of my body yet. I think this is partially due to the numbness and the fact that I'm not used to having anything.

I go back to work tomorrow and I need to pick out a shirt that doesn't make me look like a linebacker. I'm just really hoping that nobody (that doesn't already know) notices.
