3 weeks post op. For real :)

Okay now I'm finally caught up to date. This photo was taken last night on day 21 (3 weeks) post op. I love this pic. After I started doing the massage exercises on day 13 I started seeing noticeable improvement in the softness and movability of these babies. It's been making me feel a lot better about them. They seem firmer and still can't quite get them to touch without great effort when I am standing up but it's getting better and when I am laying on my side they are softer and more real feeling and I can get them to touch. Sometimes when I first wake up they seem really soft and squishy. I know it seems opposite for a lot of people though. I love waking up in the morning and catching a glimpse of myself in the mirror in just a tank or sports bra and thinking 'Dang, look at them boobies'
Hope all is going well for you ladies. For those with upcoming surgeries - if you are deciding between two sizes right next to eachother my Dr. says the difference is not that noticeable. So choose the one your heart seems to really want and don't let fear do the choosing for you :)

Back to work
I went back to work as a kindergarten teacher 13 days postop. My job doesn't require much heavy lifting, thankfully, but I'm on my feet almost the whole day and use a lot of arm movements, checking papers, writing on the board washing tables, vacuuming at the end of the day etc, so I was glad to have as much time off as I could get. The thing I was most worried about was getting my kids in and out of the car. Mostly my 2 yr. old since she need more help. The first day went really well though, I bend my knees and have my toddler wrap her arms around my neck so I don't actually have to lift her. My boobs felt a little weird when I bent over to help students so I crouched instead. Wiping the tables and vacuuming made them a bit sore and crampy but that got better every day now I hardly notice my boobs. My boss is amazed that I'm fine and back a 100%. My recovery has been pretty easy. I think the worst at the beginning was the upper back ache from hunching and compensating. Two muscle spasm episodes and at the beginning they would cramp up when I got cold. I didn't seem to have any bruising or complications. The scars are longer than I thought they would be but I think they will heal fine. They are bumpy right now but my PS said they will smooth out over time. Right now the only time they bother me is if I try to push on something a little harder or lift something a bit heavy. I haven't gone back to the gym yet but plan to soon. I'm not going to rush the upper body weights at first but it feels like it won't be too big of a deal once I do.

You are looking fabulous! Get to be the hot teacher, though thankfully kindergarten kids wouldn't notice! It was wiping motions that were tricky for me at first too!
My scars are still bumpy at 6 or so weeks but improving.

Thanks! Yeah, kindergarteners are mostly oblivious, but the first time I had eyelash extensions one of them asked if I got my eyelashes done. Oh actually that was one of my second graders. I also teach some older classes.

Sometimes kids are surprisingly observant! My kids have said nothing about my new boobs thankfully!

The Uglies :P
You know, the ones to remind you why you did this :)
11 day post op pics and squish test. I could squeeze the a little at this point but they were pretty rigid in their spot.

When I bent over and saw what mine looked like underneath that'd when I knew I was going to do it. Either do it or refuse to be on top with my husband!

Seriously I thought I had pretty decent boobs until that underside view. After age and breastfeeding OMG! You can fluff them up with push up bra's but you can't disguise what they look like when you bend over!
