OMG I teared....I have teared Lady Lumps.... 1 month today-June 4-July4th, 2013

1 month today Yeah....Never in my wildest dreams, would I have guessed that small lady lumps would have me smiling every day... Who knew?
My PS is hardly traditional which really suits me to a T. He did not believe in surgical bras, he kept telling me "be comfortable" The first 2 weeks, I just wore a flannel binder, so soft and a whole lot comfortable.. I paper taped my incisions and changed them every 5 days for the first 3 weeks. ( ohh you must read about my first attempt lol) . By the 3rd week, after having shingles ( only last 10 days) and reaction to some pain med...( 1 day) Stitches out, which was a breeze....( what I worried about was ridiculous) Drains hurt more...( but only for 5 sec) I have not had one infection, I haven't had any itching...
So what has been my regimen? Each morning I use baby wipes, no scent ones...I wipe my lady lumps, air dry, then I add some Palmer Oil, Vit E, ( many recommended this) This oil has no residue, so it does not stain clothes, has a nice mild scent, and I believe the reason why I have had absolutely no itching and my scarring already is at a minimum. I do this 3 x a day....I avoid salt completely, I have been eating-- OK, lots of yogurt greek style ( 1 container every day...the large one)...( loaded with good bacteria), eat greens every day...been eating lots of pineapple...( bromelain is a great enzyme that aids in digestion and is wonderful for circulation)
I drink at least a litre of filtered water daily, and I bath or shower only every other day....This keep chaffing down... I went from a 34 J to a 34 C, from boxy to tear shaped. I keep peeping into my blouses ( size 6 now from a size 14) and just smile...

I am now wearing BALI revolution, these are amazing...but I only wear them till they begin to feel too tight, that is around 4-5pm each day..then I take it off...We have gym in our home, so I limit myself to only 15 minutes each day on the treadmill...if I do more, they swell and hurt...
I still sleep on my back, I use L shaped pillows to keep me from rolling....I actually find back sleeping very comfortable...who knew..? REGRETS...none...

Like so many of you have shared...the first 2 -3 weeks is like a roller coaster...one lady lump larger than the other, nipples very sensitive, ( ok that is me...and they still are...) I now wear floral pasties...lol LISTEN to your body, TRUST your PS, Be PATIENT, your body heals, your lady lumps will settle, and you will be sighing a whole lot more... Ohhh and don't overdo it EVER....it will set you back a day or two..
MY PS said it takes up to 6 months for our body to completely heal....I believe HIM!

To all those who have had BR, you ROCK!

2 days after sttiches and my nipples are yozi

Okkkkkkk my nipples are soooooo sensitive , i had to get me some pasties....and even with them on , i am still hyper sensitive....tell me , tell me please this too shall pass.lol My wee lady lumps are healing well, however my end of day I am sore...especially along the sides....

Keeping you in stitches

wellllllll, snip snip snip snip, that was it....the majority of my stitches will be absorbed by my body. My PS cut some loops and my breast then started to settle...... Although I am a bit sore, he said i can begin showering and moisturizing tomorrow..
As many of you who have had drains, those hurt more....really the removal of stitches is the least pain you will feel. I was told to continue listening to my body and to not overdo it...I guess cartwheels and somersaults will have to wait for another week lol
