I read it on other reviews but I guess I didn't really believe it. At week three I've been just as exhausted as I was at week one. I've resumed some of my activities such as helping at the school. I was only there an hour but good grief I feel like I tried to run a marathon. It's starting to drive me batty. Yesterday I had huge amounts of swelling. I'm also on antibiotics because my incision right above my pubic area has a few spots that my PS thought might be infection starting. They antibiotics make me feel yuck. Anyway I'm getting a bit tired of the healing process I'll be glad when the exhaustion stops.

Swollen
I'm still swollen. I have to admit I was hoping to have a flat tummy by now. I mean I look way better than I did before and I'm loving my new boobs but I'm wondering if I'm going to get that flat result. I was able to sleep on my back in my own bed for the last two nights. I was even able to turn on my side for a few without too much pain. So I'm trying to be patient but I want that flat tummy now!! Lol
Here's a couple of pictures from yesterday.

Lol. Thanks. I'm trying to be patient. I probably shouldn't look at all the pictures in RS. Makes me feel like I'm not getting the results I want.

I did not have a pain pump only OxyContin. I took that every 4 hours for the first three days. I was then able to cut back on that. By day 5 I was able to take ibuprofen or Tylenol. I kept up on the pain meds so I didn't have much serious pain.

Itching
Omg! The itching. It's driving me crazy! My PS said I could use Benadryl cream or take Benadryl tabs. I've done both and it barely helps. I'm glad my body is healing but I'll be glad when the itching subsides. I've not taken any pictures in a few days but the swelling is going down a bit. I'll post a few pics from a few days ago.
