Counting Down the Days! Shawnee Mission, KS

Still have some unevenness, one more appt at the end of March to address size difference and r nipple placement, easy fix if the residual swelling isn't causing the difference. Overall way happy! Started massaging with castor oil to lessen the scars may do kinesotape more but it's a little difficult to get off and I can't massage with it on. I'm allergic to paper tape so can't do that! Will try to keep with weekly updates!

Had an appt on Monday and had that suture that was poking through removed. Got numbed up and he had to cut a couple places to get it removed it was a lonnnng one and my boob did not want to give it up. It was uncomfortable and felt weird, a few pinches here and there but not horrible at least.

I mentioned the size difference I'm noticing and he didn't say too much other than it was pretty early to judge and there's still definitely a chance they'll even out more. I think it might be evening out some now that that suture is out, could be all in my head but I'm staying hopeful!

I went to VS! I was sized into a 36DD, way to early to tell, plus I'm a 32 band, maybe a 34 in their weird sizing so I know that's not accurate. Large for their bralettes so I fit into most styles! I got a few and love how cute they are, included a picture of one!

I started taping yesterday after taking these pictures. I read a bunch on using kinesotape so I'm giving that a try since everything is all closed up! I've had a lot of success with it in the past on a different injury so I'm thinking it'll do well for scar reduction, I have a couple little raised spots I'm hoping will flatten out some more.

Feeling a lot better so far. I gave my ps a call on Wed and spoke to the nurse about the openings with the sutures poking out. For the below the nipple one she suggested getting butterfly closures to help it hold together so I did that and it's looking loads better. I also picked up some triple antibiotic cream as well, let the right totally dry out over night, they weren't leaking much fluid so the manuka honey wasn't doing much for healing like it was for the left side. Within 2 days it looks way better to me! So glad to see progress and not anything getting worse! Just some tiny little open wound spots left on my left t too!

I do still have some asymmetry so I'm going to still bring that up to see if it's swelling or something that may need to be addressed at a later date. It's not a huge difference but enough I think I could have issues with bra fitting sit it might be about a cup size bigger. But we'll see! It all takes time, been growing these things for years, and they're so much better than before.
