I'm on my 3rd day now out of surgery... Overall major pain was just the first night. Lots of swelling after the first few hours but overall everything seems very normal and easy to heal from. I have a burning sensation in the litter corner of my left breast almost on my ribs. But I'm sure it's normal. Lotsa stiffness and pain when I first wake up but I'm sleeping thru the night. No pain killers needed anymore, just Tylenol. Now just hoping I can heal up today and be ready for an important job interview in two days from now. Lol...

Also, lotsa settling has happened. I'm surprised bc I thought it'd take weeks to get this much settling. My hubby even mentioned that they are starting to look normal. I'm excited to see the final result in the months to come.

Day 4

mizz_sv
Okkkk, so it's day 4 now. I'm getting some burning sensations and tingles of pain in my side boob and ribs on the side and by my back. My traps and upper shoulders were CRAZY sore and I realized it's bc I was standing and sitting like a robot w my arms at my sides for a few days. I'm correcting my posture. I'm home alone without kids today which is a blessing. Hopefully I can get thru my kids parent teacher conference ok. Tomorrow afternoon I have a big interview too so lets hope I can get thru everything easily. I definitely need this new job.

The mornings are the hardest part of my day. I'm down to 3,000 mgs of Tylenol throughout the 24-hours. No Percocet which is good.

Made myself breakfast today and one of my kids lunch. Definitely excited to take a shower and check out my results. Hoping for more droppage and fluffing although I know it's soon and I shouldn't have my hopes up.

Shopping... my boob is a squeaky toy?

So. Today I drove, showered solo, shaved (interesting) and shopped for new blouses. (Banana republic had 40% off today btw!)

Driving was difficult. I had little control of my left arm and it's lack of strength. My right is better. Pain is lowered. I took 4 extra strength Tylenol all day.

I was trying on blouses when... My left boob started making a funny rubbing noise. Like the implant was running my rib or something. Sounded squeaky and weird. Felt weird too. No pain tho. Although it was painful to get my arms over my head.

Trying to improve my posture. Hard to keep my arms flat at my side. I find myself shrugging constantly with robot arms. Ugh.

Everyday is easier than the last. Not much droppage but they are SO much bigger now. I'm really happy about that. The first couple days they were so flat and tight. Not that I didn't prep myself for that but I guess I've been waiting for so long to have big boobs I'm impatient. Anyhow... Pics!

Congrats on your BA!!! You look great! I'm 10 days post-op and I just started to massaging today and experienced a strange rubbing noise when doing my first massage... I actually described it to my husband as nails going down a caulk board.. LOL It was so strange.. Great pics!!! I can't believe your driving 4 days post-op!!! You go girl:) I've had a slow recovery and still haven't drove yet...

I definitely don't think I should be driving. Last night was rough. Needed a pain pill and actually started crying. My left breast is hurting bad and the incision in the far left is very sore. Hoping I can take it easier today before my interview!
