Last night I slept pretty well. We figured out to put firm pillows on my sides as well for support and that was a huge help. I woke up once and took my pain medicines.
I'm amazed at how great I feel. Just sore and a little tight, but the stretching seems to really help.

My stomach is VERY bloated - looks strange, but I knew from other ladies posts to expect some of that.

Congratulations! So glad that you are doing well today, don't over do it from what everyone says. My surgery date is 4/30 and can't wait. I think our before pictures look very similar, but I don't have to have the lift. 3 PS's said no so I'm taking their word for it. What CC's and Profile did you go with? Maybe you said but I missed it. I'm still trying to figure it out and I too want a Full "D", I think?!

With the lift it was hard to determine a specific cc before the surgery because I would be loosing some of my current breast tissue. I ended up with 380 CCs - moderate profile. My doctor actually sits you up during surgery to make sure everything looks right. It feels perfect for me - and I'm looking forward to unwrapping tomorrow!

I am so happy that your recovery is going well! Keep taking muscle relaxants if your doc gave them to you - I think that they have helped me so much. You look great, even in bandages!

Today was the big day. I was the first one scheduled for surgery this morning and had to be there at 7 am. It's a 1.5 hour drive so we were out the door at 5:30.

When we got there everyone was really helpful. I signed all of my paperwork and then they took me back while my mom and husband stayed in the waiting room. The surgical suites and offices are gorgeous with couches and fireplace. No hospital!
Once back, I got undressed and the nurses took my vitals. I was a little worried about the IV as I have really small veins, but she gave me numbing medicine and was super easy. Then they brought back my husband for the final talk with the doctor and the markings. And lastly my mother came back to say goodnight. It seemed like 2 minutes later and I was awake.
We left about a half hour later and I slept almost the whole way. When I woke up I just feel very sore and a lot of pressure.
Once at home I slept on and off for several hours. I also ate a small ham sandwich.
At 4;00 I joined my mom and husband in the living room to watch tv and h e dinner. I had one pain pill at 4:00 and that really helped with discomfort.
I will post pictures later - but so far so good!

It's Tuesday and my surgery is scheduled for Thursday morning. I've done my required blook work, picked up prescriptions and have generally kept myself overbooked with clients this week so I don't have much time to think about the surgery.

One think I'm concerned about is the recovery time. I'm a photographer and took off a full 2 weeks for actual shoots, but I'll need to return to work on Tuesday (surgery is the Thursday prior) for computer work (sitting at a computer all day). What has been your experiences? Did you feel like post-op day 5 you could do that?
