Ugh, I had to work all day catering yesterday (6 days post-op), and ended up carrying trays all evening. I tried really hard to only carry things that were light, but even so.... I am worried about complications. I wish that I could have taken more time off! Hopefully that's the last time I have to overtax myself for a while (typically I won't be catering), but even so, I'm really worried that I f'ed up my recovery somehow. This morning my boobs feel about the same, maybe a little tighter though.

Hey everyone! So, I actually had my surgery this...

Hey everyone! So, I actually had my surgery this past monday. Everything went well and I honestly feel like I couldn't have had a better experience. I went into the hospital at 6:30am, at which point I was shown to my own little 'cubicle' where they put me in a reclining chair with a hot blanket. Then an anesthesiologist came and talked to me for a little bit and put in an IV, which I really didn't feel at all! She was great! The doctor came in after that, and he marked my breasts and we talked a little about size. Basically we decided I wanted 'biggish' boobs, but proportional. The anesthesiologist came back in and gave me something to relax me (which was awesome), and they wheeled me into the OR - I believe it was around 7:30am. And ....
I woke up in the recovery room at about 10:30 I think, immediately felt my boobs! You know how it is! I was happy with the way they felt (and looked, from what I could see). I was in recovery for a couple of hours, but I honestly felt great, considering, and they let me leave at 12:30. I recuperated at my moms until Thursday, and during that time I've definitely gone through a lot of feelings both physically and emotionally (physically, I was really nausiated and had a terrible headache all wednesday into thursday afternoon). They were definitely sore on tuesday, but I took my last percocet tuesday night, so they obviously haven't felt that bad. However, they feel huge! I think there is a lot of psychological adjustment that comes along with BA, and I am really going through that right now. I know they are swollen, but damn! I have to wear really loose shirts because otherwise I feel ridiculous. I wish I could have done this in the fall, but this was really the only time. I guess the doctor put something like 480 in the right and 390 in the left... quite a difference! It does feel great to have two boobs that are much closer in size.
So.... so far so good, but seriously, woah! I hope they go down some and soon. They are quite big on the sides as well. But, like I said, I know that a lot of what I'm dealing with here is psychological and I just need to ride it out. I am looking forward to a month from now and having some more perspective, and just generally being more comfortable. Heyo, boobs!

Well, tomorrow is the big day! My OR time is...

Well, tomorrow is the big day! My OR time is scheduled for 7:30 am. My mom is coming to take me really early in the morning... I am so lucky to have such a supportive and helpful mother! I'm not gonna lie, I am really nervous for a few reasons, mainly that:
1. I won't wake up, and will die from getting cosmetic surgery!
2. they will still be really uneven
3. they will come out looking worse than they do going in
4. that I will have a really tough time healing and won't be prepared to go to work on Friday, when I start my new job.
I am very excited though, I can't believe this is finally happening. Wish me luck! I'll update as soon as I can after the surgery to let you all know how it's going.
