Long time no see ladies!! I'm 9 weeks out now and feeling great!! I find myself totally forgetting I have surgery, and it's hard to think that I haven't had this size boobs my whole life, haha!
So today i've been feeling some random pains in my right, and also under my armpit is feeling a little tender again, like when i poke it in one certain spot just outside of my implant.. I know I've felt this before in the "early days" but am surprised to see it returning, since I've been feeling as good as knew!
Do any of you ladies still get little twinges of pain?? I keep freaking myself out thinking it's the start of CC, but its only in one tiny little spot!
any advise would be great!

Hey boobie friends! I'm 3 weeks and 3 days post...
Hey boobie friends! I'm 3 weeks and 3 days post op, and feel fantastic! No pain what so ever and only occasional soreness that doesn't last long at all. I think my right boob (the one that's been giving me trouble) is finally starting to show signs of life but it still isn't where I want it to be! I had another appt with my plastic surgeon last week and he told me to start using a scar cream and that I could be in underwire...
Of course when he said that I thought what?! As most of you ladies on here started wearing underwire much later!! Has anyone been cleared by their PS to wear underwire at the 3 week mark? I went and got sized at Victoria Secret and am a 34C but I'm still swollen on the sides and usually wear 32 band, so we'll see!
Any suggestions on a good scar treatment? My PS just suggested to put Mederma on it!

Glad you're feeling well! I was cleared for underwire at 2wks, unless they started to bother my incisions.

You're looking great!!
I am PO 3 weeks tomorrow and I had a two week appt last week and I was cleared to wear whatever bra was comfortable including underwire. As far as the cream they still have me wearing steri strips. So go figure. How one PS can differ from another amazes me. But as far as previous knowledge Mederma does work well. I used Bio Oil in the past and it worked well.
Congrats on a smooth journey.

I just wanted to comment to say that your 3 week pic looks awesome! I think that you picked the perfect size for you! I have chased 320 and hope to get a very similar look. Here's hoping! Glad you are your girls are doing so well! :-)

I have seen docs allow underwire from 3 weeks on up to 6 months! It's so crazy how every doctor has such different advice. I don't think I could wear underwire yet even if my doctor said I could...ouch! My boobies hurt still and my incision is still tender....that being said, your 3 week pics look amazing! Your scars look really good too. Perfect size on you :)
