Hey everyone! Sorry it took so long for another update. It's crazy how quick the time has gone. A lot has changed since my last update. My incisions are healing beautifully and the scabs are almost all gone. I started feeling pretty much back to normal around 8 and 9 days post op. It was a lot of uncomfortableness that I thought would never end but I'm feeling great now and very happy with my decision. I was told I could wear wireless bras now if I wanted to. Went down and bought a cheap wireless bra since my friends told me it may not fit right in a couple months. I held the bra up next to me and I thought there's no way this is gonna fit. I guess I still have a little boob mind. Ha ;) I bought a 34C which fits pretty good but it's a little snug. I also got a new bathing suit top, went from a size small to a large! That was exciting!! Of course some days I get boob greed and wish I went a little bigger. I know a lot of girls go through this. BOOB GREED IS A REAL STRUGGLE! They look so natural though and I really enjoy that. It's weird through my shirt they look so small but naked they look pretty big. Other than the greed I'm feeling great and very happy!!!

Day 3 post op!

I'm kinda confused if this should be day 4 post op or day 3. Anyway I woke up today feeling so much better. I feel like I'm almost back to normal besides a little tightness in my chest. Lifting my arms feel really good and it doesn't hurt to use them as much. I went to my first post op appointment yesterday and he said everything looked great. I was told I could wear any stretchy sports bar, my surgery bra, or even go bra less. I was also told I'll get my stitches out next Wednesday. I'll be going back to work tomorrow.

Sounds like you are having a smooth recovery! Congrats and happy birthday :) Your "before" stats are similar to mine and I'm considering a similar cc size. My surgery date is in August. Thanks for the updates! You look great already! Hope everything continues to go smoothly!

Thank you! Good luck on your surgery and a speedy recovery! One thing I'd say is if your struggling between 2 sizes pick the bigger one. Many people told me this and I didn't listen. Now that most of the swelling has gone down I wish I went with the 400cc I originally picked. I still love them but they definitely aren't as big as I felt with the sizers.

Day 2 post op!

I woke up this morning super early with a lot of tightness in my chest. Definitely in the most pain I've been in so far. It feels like my implants are in my arm pits and my breast are so tight. My back also hurts from slouching. I'm trying not to take my pain pills because they are making my stomach super bloated and uncomfortable. Sorry tmi but it's the truth. As soon as I woke up I got my ice pack from the freezer and iced them until the ice pack wasn't cold anymore. After that I got into the shower and let the warm water run across them. The shower really seemed to help with the tightness. I have my first post op appointment today and I'm hoping I'm healing well. I did notice a little red area next to my bandage where my incision is. I'm hoping this is normal.
