5 Month Post Op Review
WORTH IT$6,600
Hello Everyone!
Just wanted to pop in for a super quick update because it has been awhile since I posted any photos of myself. I am now 5 months in and very happy with my results. Most people feel "boob greed" but it's funny because sometimes I feel as though I might've went too big....but then I put on some cute outfits and look in the mirror to feel great about them. I still am massaging them every single evening right before bed just to make sure that they soften up even more and the "pocket" stays open, as my surgeon says.
The holidays are coming up!!! YAY!!!

7 Weeks Post Op
Hello Everyone!
I just wanted to post some new photos for everyone. I am 7 weeks out and am having such a hard time finding well fitted bras :( My PS said I could wear underwire but I am finding them so uncomfortable and I am scared to wear them because I don't want the underwire to alter my "dropping and fluffing" process. Any tips anyone? Also, I am still experiencing morning boob soreness. Is anyone else having this issue this far out? Maybe I should wear a sports bra or a bralette to keep the girls in place instead of them hanging on to a particular side when I am sleeping.
I am still massaging them everyday to make sure they become nice and soft. I was told not to wear the compression band anymore and do not need to massage them in a downwards motion. My primary focus is to make sure my nipples point the same way because of my pectus excavatum condition.
I would appreciate any pointers or personal experiences from anyone! I hope everyone is excited to celebrate 4th of July :)

Absolutely gorgeous. For sleeping you can try the nightlift https://www.nightlift.com/ or alternatively the bralette strap you got in the beginning with a comfy sports bra on top. This will allow you to drop and fluff without the risk of them dropping out of pocket.

Thank you for the suggestion! I will definitely do some research, I am still so uncomfortable if I don't wear a sports bra at night... sigh

Time is on your side. It took my wife about six months to feel comfortable without either a sports bra or nightlift. Even now she still wears the surgical bra for peace of mind. Nine months and even though it's ok, she feels the pocket is not 100% stable, and she's just listening to her body. You are almost double in cc, so I wouldn't blame you if you deferred to caution.

You look absolutely fabulous! Love your results! I like wearing bralettes or tube style bras under a nice snug sports bra when I sleep....good support, keeps them in place and it's super comfortable as well. Congrats!
July 6, 2017
Thank you so much! Okay great, I just wanted to make sure that there were other ladies still sleeping in bras!
July 7, 2017
Yes! I'm still wearing sport bra at night. My PS told me to until 3 mons post, which is next Monday! I can't wait to free my girls at night ;)

I have to sleep in underwire, and they are uncomfortable, they dig in. You can try the Natori feathers bra, I find it to be more comfortable than most brands. My doctor said underwire until I see him again at the end of July, so they don't drop too fast and get saggy . You look stunning! Perfect size!
July 6, 2017
My PS also said that I was clear to wear underwire but I am not sure if I should be wearing one to sleep! I will definitely call and check with him. Thank you for the suggestion!!! :) Thank you!! You as well!!!
July 6, 2017
Your boobs are on my wish boobs list! You had such great results! Thank you for sharing your advice and story!
July 6, 2017
Awww thank you so much!!! I was hoping that my blog would help others achieve their goal!!! :) Good luck to you!! Can't wait to see your results!!
July 6, 2017
You're so welcome! Thank you for the luck! :) I'll keep posting as I go! Can't wait for my consultation July 18th!

6 Weeks Post Op
Hi Everyone!
At 6 weeks, I am still wearing my compression band while I sleep because unfortunately my work uniform doesn't allow me to wear it so I don't get any wear time during the day Monday - Thursdays. I've been massaging them aggressively and applying cocoa butter and bio oil on them everyday to make sure that I don't end up with any stretch marks. My incisions are looking great and my breasts are feeling much better than they were a few weeks ago. I still don't feel like they are a part of me because when I am running down the stairs I can feel them moving around behind the muscles. I just wanted to give everyone a quick update with photos! I can't wait until they drop and fluff because they look like two basketballs on my chest still but I have to consider that I did not have much breast tissue to begin with. Since I am right handed, my right boob is sitting higher up than my left (PS said that was going to happen) so I've been trying to push that one down a bit more with the massages. Thanks!

Yeah they still look pretty high and firm ! They look tight! They look great and you'll get there !! Keep massaging
June 22, 2017
I am trying!!! I try massaging them for about 2 hours throughout the day. How often and for how long do you normally massage them for? It's so hard for me during the day because I am at work :(
June 27, 2017
Only like 20 to 30 min at night for the first 4 weeks
I don't massage then anymore but when I go shower I "massage them" or touch you can say for about 5 min lol
June 22, 2017
Your look amazing!!! I was too chicken to go Hp. But I think they look great on everyone else..
June 23, 2017
Aw thank you so much!!! I honestly wanted to go with a mod+ profile but unfortunately my PS said the biggest I could go was a 350 and I didn't think that was going to be big enough for me which is why I went with HP instead... I just can't wait for them to fully drop and fluff!!! :)
June 22, 2017
These are my wish boobs now! You're about 12 lbs lighter than me though. I wonder if that makes much of a difference. What band width do you normally wear?
June 23, 2017
Hi!! So I went to a few different consults but they all kept telling me different measurements. I wore a 32A/B PRE-OP if that helps at all. My BWD was around 11.3-8???? I am totally not sure because like I said each surgeon told me a different number every time. Sorry I don't have an exact number for you!
June 22, 2017
Work looks great and I think you Ade a good decision to go bigger. My wife has so much boob greed, but I don't want her to go back under as the recovery time is so long and uncomfortable for her. In any event, happy healing.
June 23, 2017
Yes! My boyfriend was a great help to the decision making on the size. I wish your wife would post so I could see her recovery as well! I know you said she was shy...
