6 month update...WHAT?!
It's been 6 months as of next week, hard to believe! I feel like I've gotten used to it, they pretty much feel like a part of me (my favorite part of me)! I've included some pics, including some in my favorite new bras and 1 of my favorite lingerie piece...sorry it's a bit wrinkled. My scars seem to be improving. They are smoother now, not raised anymore. I think they will keep getting better, I'm still using scar strips. I didn't expect my scars to look great from the beginning because I do have a tendency to scar easily and badly, so I'm pretty happy with how they're looking right now.
Had a short summer...only got to wear a bikini a handful of times! I guess that's life as an adult. I have gained some weight since surgery, but I really can't place all the blame there. Lots going on and lots of stress in my life. Trying to get back to where I want to be!

I can't believe it's been a over a month!
I don't have time for a super long post, but just wanted to say that I am thrilled with my results and my size. I will try to post some pictures here in the near future. I just got back from a getaway with some girlfriends. My some of my friends knew, some didn't. The ones who didn't know had NO IDEA, and the ones who did know made multiple comments about how great and natural they look. I am so happy! I was cleared to where whatever bra I would like, including underwire as long as it's comfortable.
I went to aerie to get measured and was told I'm a 32C. I've worn a 34 band my whole life so I was a little puzzled by this but thought I'd give it a try. Tried that on and the cup was basically giving me quad boob, so thought I'd move up to 34C to see if that helped...it didn't. Aerie didn't have a 34D to try on so I went to Victoria's Secret. Tried on a 34C and 34D there and yep...I'm a 34D. I don't feel like I look like I'm a 34D but it is definitely a more comfortable fit for me. I fill it out completely and it doesn't give me quad boob. I never imagined I'd be happy being a D cup but trust me, it's not obvious. Doc said at this point my size will not change much, which is great because I'm very very happy with my size!
Bikini shopping, bra shopping, and yep, even lingerie shopping is my new favorite thing. Not that I had a bad sex life before, but DAMN is it great now! I love the way I look and my husband loves my new confidence. Also, I look sexy AF in lingerie ;)
Scars are healing well....I have been using the silicone scar strips my PS gave me. I tend to scar easily so I'm not sure I'll have as amazing results as far as that goes, but we will see. I can use the scar strips for 2 months and then I've also heard that retinol cream is supposed to be great for scars, so I will probably try that next month.
I have been doing daily massages, sometimes multiple times per day. It takes like 1 minute or less so it's not like it interferes with my day. They are getting softer but still not as soft as normal breast tissue. They definitely bounce though! Need to get a good sports bra.
I will try to post pics soon! I just started grad school and I'm already feeling overwhelmed...school first!
