Time for a little update again!
The booblets are healing up nicely, but there is not really much change. They look slightly smaller than last week I think. Im still wearing the post-op bra for another week, which is ok by me because whenever I run/jump/drive on a bumpy road my boobs jiggle all over the place lol. Need something to strap them down, even though they are small?!
My pain is mostly gone so Im back to doing housework, to my boyfriend's great relief. He has a physically challenging job, so having to walk the dogs and do the dishes every day while Ive been recovering hasnt been fun for him. I dont much like to be dependent on people anyway, so its ok with me to going back to doing my half of the chores.
Ive gone back to sleeping like I normally do as well, on my side. Soo much nicer than trying to sit!
And next week Im going back to work - not looking forward to that though... Still no idea how to deal with the fact that my colleagues will obviously notice and talk behind my back. Oh well, Im leaving soon for another job anyway, hopefully.
The only things Im still careful about is working out, running etc, which still feels a bit uncomfortable. There is no muscle pain or anything, but its that jiggle... not a nice feeling!
The nipple sensitivity is more back to normal, thankfully! There are still some funky random sensations on the left side, but nowhere near like a week ago.
As fas as my vague little issues and problems goes, I havent noticed much difference. My energy level is still low, I still have weird little aches and bad moods, etc etc. I have been stuffing my face like a pig though, with lots of sugar and other unhealthy things, and that always make me feel bad. Havent been able to convince myself to eat as healthy as I was hoping to, for some reason. Trying to stick to healthy food is such a struggle!
All in all Im still satisfied with the results, and I dont regret doing this at all. I do hope they will fluff up a bit, and that I will be able to stick to a healthy diet for some time to help my body get through the last stages of healing though
See you next week :)

Post-op day 7 - Nipples, anyone? Im done with mine.
HithaerelApril 15, 2016
Anyone else having crazy sensitive nipples? Its driving me mad, they keep aching/feeling sore all the time lately... Does it normally go away after a while? They were sensitive before the explant too (ever since I got the implants), but not this much. First few days after the surgery I couldnt feel them at all, but I guess the nerve is healing or something because now they're all over the place now, and they are ANGRY
Other than that I feel fine. Was washing my post-op bra again today so I had to spend a few hours wearing a "normal" bra (without underwires and other hard bits ofc), which felt easier on the nipples, but I was surprised by the amount of jiggle! Natural boobs are so soft, I never knew... The post-op bra squeezes everything together. I changed the tape over the incisions today, as my surgeon told me to, and that went well. The incisions still feel sore, but they look clean and nice, nothing bad going on!
I do have some weird feelings in my boobs, a bit here and a bit there. Hard to describe, its not pain, but I can tell something is happening inside them. Its the feeling of healing (If I ever become a smooth jazz musician, thats gonna be the name of my first song), I guess. Its strange.
Happy healing to all, I hope you have nicer nipples than mine, and good luck to everyone whos having their surgeries!!! :) :) :)

Mine are behaving since weren't moved or touched.. Thank goodness!
April 15, 2016
Ps gosh that's an awesome song title you should soo do it! ;) xxxxx
April 17, 2016
Lol I know right! Mine werent moved (or touched at all as far as I know) either, but something must have happened during the first surgery many years ago to upset the nerve, or at least thats my guess. Youre lucky to have friendly nipples lol
April 17, 2016
Aw well I'm so sorry to hear that! Isn't it terrible the pain n losses we've faced thanks to these jolly things?! :/ we'll be hoping soon they settle and go back to normal!... We all seem to get one complication... ;) xxxx

Hey, I am wondering on the nipple thing. I recently started on some projesterone cream.. Within a few days the aching sensitive feeling in my nipples was driving me nuts!! I heard it can be triggered by too much projesterone or too little which can then spike estrogen. I doubt this is your issue but a simple hormone panel might highlight is there is one of the hormones out of wack. But don't for sure go down the hrt or premerin route!
I noticed today that my typically hard as tennis balls silicone, one is now a lot softer. I think I might need to move up my plan to get moving on this buddies of 25 years.

Hi :) My hormones should be fine, at least they were a few months ago (I had them tested at the doctors because of several little other issues). Test results came back fine, but who knows, the body is complex! I am having my period now though, so Im hoping my crazy nipples are a (temporary) result of that...
Yeah my implants went very soft too, thats when I started thinking about having them out. Mine were never hard, but I could still notice a big difference, and I knew something was up.

This is interesting.. about the going soft part.. only in the last 7 days or so ;-((
April 17, 2016
Yes mine spaz out at times... I'm 3+ weeks post op, and my left is hard most often, and the right is numb and sensitive...? Before I had issues w sensitivity as well, now it comes n goes.... Btw ur natural breasts r so nice, it boggles my mind y you would change them to begin with, lol, that's just how I hi honestly see it,... But happy recovery and try to avoid sugar which feeds inflammation. Perhaps u already know that... Lots of water too..
April 19, 2016
Thanks! From what I remember, they were actually smaller before I got my implants than they are now. But still... I should never have gotten them of course. :) My left one is hard a lot too, its driving me mad. Looks strange too, theres no way I'll go without a bra with hard nipples lol
April 25, 2016
OH I gotcha! Well I guess we have a lot of similarities then, because mine are not as big as yours but also went up just a teeny tiny bit (more like developed) since I got them done. And having gotten my second period since the surgery, the pain in them is finally subsiding. My right one is still mostly numb and unresponsive :(. Although it's numb it slightly hurts upon stimulation or the try for stimulation, lol.
April 19, 2016
Mine were fine after surgery and didn't seem to work properly but now 5+ weeks out my boobs have become tender and my nipples are on sensory overload.. I can't even rub them.. I started massaging vigorously at week 4 so I thought maybe that was it
April 19, 2016
Well lets hope its a part of the healing process for both of us! Apparently it does take weeks, or even months, before everything is back to normal in there, so fingers crossed! Whats the purpose of massaging them, does that help healing?
April 26, 2016
ps Hitharel, I spoke too soon, mine have been misbehaving now! Ultra tender n painful pleasure not just pleasure ... Hoping it is a phase of anger with us?! Lol and they get over us putting them thru this soon?! ;) [RS bleep]

Post-op day 6
HithaerelApril 14, 2016
Quick little update: :) Im feeling a little bit worse today, I think Ive might have overdone it for the last few days. Been playing with my dogs, driving cars, planting seeds and stuff, so today Im a bit sore. I also woke up sleeping on my side, so thats probably not good either.
Whats worse, my nipples are soooo sensitive. This is an issue I had ever since I got the implants, but after the explant it seemed to have gone away. Today though they are worse than ever. I hope this will go away, faaast...
Other than that Im doing fine, got more energy and feel quite good. Been eating bad today too, so I could probably have felt even better if I bothered keeping up my diet, but thats for another day :P
Hope you are all doing good!! :)

Thanks for posting your explant journey on here - your new/old breasts look fantastic! I'm day 1 post op, still on the strong oral meds, dizzy, and trying to figure out what to do with this time in bed. I don't think I can think well enough to do work, but it's been really nice for me to read stories like yours. I've been rolling my shoulders back quite a bit (and whenever I do I can feel my pec muscles stretch a little). Do you have any tips that helped you through the first couple of days?
April 15, 2016
Aw thank you :) Grats on your operation, the worst is over now! Recovery seems different for everyone, with everyone facing their own individual challenges. I felt dizzy too, almost passed out at one point while going up the stairs, but it got better fast. The first few days for me were spent mostly in the sofa watching tv or reading. Keep your painkillers topped up and get plenty of water and healthy food. The body need lots of extra protein (and calories in general) to repair :) Rest, liquid and nutrition I think are the most important things. Good luck in your recovery, soon you'll feel better! :)
April 15, 2016
Aw you know instinctively you've been doing too much aye lol... I couldn't imagine driving let alone playing with dogs etc!... Wow! ... You may be just stronger than me tho! ;) Awww I'm longing to sleep on my side! Lol... I actually tried last night too but got real sore within a minute, ugh... Today my underarm incisions for the lymph nodes are really sore n bit swollen... I'm going to put ice on them! ;) Well you've got incredible results, feel better, so yay another great encouraging Explant story! Thank you! ;) [RS bleep]
April 15, 2016
Thank you for your fun and kind words as always, youre such a positive person! (Teach me, master!) I think Ive just been lucky to be honest. The fact that my implants were over the muscle seems to have affected my recovery more than I expected, seeing what other people here can and cant do after surgery. I guess there is less damaged tissue in me, since they didnt have to cut under the muscle? My incisions are under my boobs, not on the side, so thats probably why Ive been able to sleep on my side (though Im really trying not to, its just that I cant get used to sleeping on my back). The downside of that is that the bra band is chewing on my incisions, which isnt so nice hehe :) Today Im gonna be a good girl and use my arms as little as possible
April 15, 2016
Aw I see, yes my capsules were cut out, and nodes and drains so 6 incisions to heal etc, Aww I'm glad you're healing well but going to take better care today so it continues! ;) xxxx
