I am a 31-year-old mother of two who breast-fed both of her children I am getting a lollipop lift with 350 cc of silicone high-profile this Thursday . I'm very scared for the recovery because I will have help for about a week with my almost 1-year-old . Does anyone have any advice about caring for the children with recovery. I'm scared to get him in and out of the crib !

We are almost in the exact same boat! Mine are 15 months old 4 years old! You'll do fine!! So far I have carried her a handful of times and have been paying my little 13 year old neighbor to pick her up for me!

I am also going to pay a 13 year old to come for a few days. Really I just need someone to transfer him from the stroller to crib or car to crib for naps . He is just so needy and loves me to tote him around , it will be sad:( thanks for replying !

I will say the first couple of days is no joke. You need someone to take care of you and your kids! I started feeling a better on day three and ALOT better a week out!
July 22, 2015
That's good to hear . I will have my mom and husband for the first 4 days . Then I will have help that next week. After that is when I will have to figure it out.
July 22, 2015
Did you have a lift as well, or just the implants ?
July 22, 2015
I'm going in for a Full C next week. Mine look similar to yours! Im getting a lift and small implant (about 250cc). Let hows the recovery on day 2 going??
July 22, 2015

I'm 2 weeks out and have been practicing with my 18 month old. I bend down, he wraps his arms around me, I hold him tight and use my legs to stand up instead of lifting him. So far so good. He weighs 30 pounds.

They look amazing so far! How much pain are you in tho?
July 28, 2015
I'm not in much now, just the tingling and pressure, whitch I didn't have before . I had a lot of sharp shooting pain in the left armpit the first two days! It was so bad because it wasn't like a constant ache . It was unexpected , and harsh . The middle of the night and morning are still painful on the left . But I've been just on Ibprophen or Tylenol today . Which is and emprovment. I can tell the left may give me some problems , but it's getting so much better . I'm very happy with the fact that I've been walking around being normal . I had a great reaction to the anestisia I think. I had friends that were so sick, for days after. I think it all depends on you and your body.
July 28, 2015
Thank you for responding! What do you mean by you can tell your going to have a hard time with the lift? The pain your still in? I'm excited and super nervous!
July 28, 2015
My left side is giving me trouble. It had been hurting in the armpit a lot .

My final day before surgery !!

It's my last day with my small saggy boobs ! Im excited and crazy nervous . I've never been under before and am still very nervous about recovery . I'm also nervous if I am getting the right size . My doctor says he puts in what I pick out . He doesn't change anything in surgery . I do and don't like this . I kind of wish he would do what he thought was the best size and what I am wanting for my over all look . We will see.

Look at my photos. My bedsores were similar to yours and my implants are basically the same size you picked! I mean ofcourse it's not gonna look the same! Mine have gotten quite a big smaller than the first week and I am really finally starting to like them! I even went to church this Sunday and no one noticed. Just looks like I'm wearing a push-up bra! And with your frame I think that's a good size for you!
July 22, 2015
Bedsores... Haha bad choice autocorrect! My breasts were similar to yours!
July 22, 2015
Thanks , I hope so !! I looked at your pics . They look good ! I am scared for them took look like they do after surguy... I am going to look like Frankenstein
July 22, 2015
I know it's totally scary! But I will say I am amazed how well they are healing in just two weeks. Get my sutures out tonight. I'll post a pic
July 23, 2015
I will be thinking of you!!
