BreastLift Sept 20 - Panama City, Panama

Grrr...photos did not attach.

I'm attaching a current photo. My right breast is slightly higher than my left, but I'm hoping with time and massage they will even out. If not I'm still ok with the result. My nipples are looking more circular, which is good.

On the plus side workouts have been going well. I've been able to run some, swim (before spitting stitches), use elliptical, bike etc. I'll get there:-) It's much easier than post-partum workouts!!! (I also didn't work out much my second pregnancy.)

I've started back to some weight training (lots of lower + some upper). I was even able to do 2 sets of 5 push-ups :) I could do 2 sets of 20 pre-op, but I want to build back-up slowly/conservatively. I could see a 5K in the near future :-)

Well, at 4/5 weeks when my scars were all nicely healed + I got the go ahead to resume workouts swimming etc gradually to normal, I hit a bump in the road. At 5/6 weeks my right breast started spitting stitches on the T part of the incision at the bottom of my breast. It looks awful (like a giant pimple + I have like 3 or 4 in a row) :( I was worried it was infected because I had been swimming + such, but I think it is fine. There is some pus + blood that come out (ew gross!) and one the stitch actually came out when I was cleaning it with hydrogen peroxide. Regardless I'm going in tomorrow to have the doctor take a look + to be sure. I guess this happens, but it is not a fun bump in the road with recovery. Apparently it is kind of like a splinter + the stitch has to come out for it to start to heal. Other than the ugly looking scar underneath I am very happy with my breasts, size, feel, shape etc. I'll add some photos shortly. I just wanted to share for anyone else who runs into this ugly bump in the road.
