2 weeks post op

EliMM
2 weeks post op and thrilled! I finally got the drain out, so feel much more normal. Dr. Guenther was great about checking in daily on the fluid levels and even offered to remove it over the weekend when my numbers were low enough. The bruising and swelling is mostly gone except for under my belly button. I’m so happy with the size of my boobs. No one I’ll notice a dramatic difference in work clothes, but I feel incredible in a bathing suit. For those with upcoming surgery, I strongly recommend not to focusing on results in week 1-2, and only focus on your recovery. My boobs felt enormous, tummy was swollen from the bra line down, and the bruising and scarring looks a bit scary. Now I’m in the fun phase of seeing results refine and improve. I got back on the peloton today for an easy ride, which felt awesome. I’m excited to start the silicon sheets on the scars this week.

Your results are perfect! The swelling appears nonexistent and the fact that you could get on your Peloton is great! I’m at day 14 post op today and am still quite swollen in my breasts and tummy. Do you wear a compression garment all day too? I love your comment about wishing you could fast forward to the 6 weeks of post op. The journey of recovery can be so humbling when it comes to missing our kiddos’ sports. Yet I’m eternally grateful for the support through this process!

Thank you! To be clear, it was a very short, gentle Peleton ride. I've been wearing the compression garment all day until today. I had i off for 9 hours and definitely saw some significant swelling increase by this afternoon above the tt scar. I've felt pretty guilty about missing kids sports for the past 2 weeks too but starting to get back to some things now.
