I got my stitches out!! Dr. Rottler said he was really happy with the contour and shape of my breasts. He also was impressed at how soft they're getting already! I've been doing the massages a lot! :) He said they're only going to get more beautiful from here and that there is no capsular constriction!! He said my bruises are turning a beautiful shade of yellow (LOL) and are getting ready to fade away. The bottom halves of my breasts are starting to regain some feeling now and there are some stingers that are coming along with that, but not bad at all. Still have a smidge of gurgling occasionally on the right side when I put my arms over my head. Only having tightness in my chest if I've been at the store or up walking around a lot. I haven't even had as much as 200mg of ibuprofen since day 4. I've also been back to work since day 4 (and drove myself there too). Overall, I'm thrilled with my new boobies. I actually feel like a woman for the first time in my life and it's incredible. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Rottler and his beautiful work and amazing bedside manner. He really cares and you can tell. I. AM. SO. HAPPY.

5 days post and I picked up my daughter!!!!
So, at 4 days post I was able to drive myself to work! I've been off the narcotic pain killers since day two and have only been taking ibuprofen! This morning, I was able to lift my 15 lb 8 month old daughter! I could have cried! I've missed snuggling her so much! One question...when did your bloat go away, ladies?? The struggle is real!! The bruising under my breasts is already turning yellow and getting ready to fade away! Here are some pics of my boobies and armpit incisions!

Took about a week, I had to be off the narcotic pain meds for a few days, drink tons of water and Gatorade and took 2 laxatives a day until things got back to normal

I literally was nine pounds heavier, yuck. I know some of the weight was my new boobs (yay!) but not all of it (bleh!)

9 lbs!!! I'm not getting near the scale then!! My PS told my husband to take the batteries out of the scale for about two weeks!!! Hahaha! Smart dude! I'm not going to weigh myself until next week. I already did some research and expect my 400cc implants to weigh 0.88 lbs each.

I started really feeling the bloat last night have been taking softeners and even used my daughters glycerin last night bc I thought I was going to explode and it was all I had lmao. But nothing happened :(. This morning went a little and felt a little better. You just have to get that all out of you lol. Gross I know!
Have you been feeling like some parts of your back fell asleep like numbing??

I had been taking fiber like crazy and it was only making me gassy! I took my last dose of antibiotics last night and was finally able to go a little this morning! I totally forgot that antibiotics also back me up!! I took a ridiculous amount of probiotics as soon as I was done with the antibiotics and things seem as if they're heading in the right direction now. Still bloated, but things are moving!! I haven't felt any numbness in my back, but the bottom halves of my breasts have no sensation at all. Totally numb. The tops of my breasts and my nipples have sensation though.

Your boobs look great! And your scars are so nice and short, I'm sure they will be nearly invisible when they are healed. Be careful to not over do anything, even if you are physically capable of lifting your baby it might not be the best idea. Definitely don't want to cause any complications!

Thank you!!! I'm only lifting her with my biceps, with my elbows at my side. No chest muscles at all. I'm being very very careful and using good body mechanics. Promise! :)

Oh good sounds like you are being careful :). How are you doing with the bloat today, has it subsided a little?

The bloat has gone down a little. It feels better but still looks out of control. Cannot wait to see these boobies paired with my normal stomach!
