Week 3
It has been 3 weeks since surgery. Till about 3 days ago, I was still feeling pressure, tightness and sometime pain in my breasts. I think I was getting better everyday but the progress was slow. Also, I got tired easily.
I finally started to feel much better at 2 and half weeks after surgery.
In addition to that, I have been on an emotional roller coaster. The first week after surgery, I was happy with my result.
After that, I started to have ups and downs in mood.
One day, I was disappointed because (I thought) they didn't look natural. Then next time when I saw them, I was happy because they looked nice and I had boobs. On a next day, I got sad again that they looked to be sitting too low and looked too round. I always liked my size, which is a good thing.
I have to be patient and wait to see a final result. Hopefully they will not end up with looking too round and sitting too low and they will look natural... Man, I sound like a needy person!

Mondor's cord
Since post-op day 17, I have developed Mondor's cord under both breasts. The one under right breast was worse than the one under left breast. I was freaked out first, but again thanks to the girls on RealSelf. com, I learned that it would go away eventually and I won't have to worry about.
I went to see a doctor just in case to make sure that it was Mondor's cord not anything else. And contacted my surgeon. My surgeon said I could massage it gently, take aspirin and place a warm towel on it.
Now it seems to be getting better.

Day 5 & 6
The night of day 5 was not a good night. My both breasts were so tight that I was in pain. One time I could feel like my skin was stretching.
Today, day 6, got worse. Because my left breast felt like rock hard and pains badly, I had to take off my supporting bra for an hour. Then, thanks to Realself.com, I remembered that some girls said they used ice packs for morning boobs. I took their advice and felt better.
When a pain and tightness came back later, I took a shower and I felt much better again!
I realized that my right breast dropped this evening compared to last night. The right one looked too low and I was disappointed a little. Wish it stayed where it was as last night... Well, I will see how my both breasts look a week later.

Provider Review
Dr. Mary Lee Peters is an amazing artist. I like how my breasts look after her work. They are not huge but they look natural and good for my body size.
