It's been a bit of a rough week this week. I got a bad rash / lump on the inside of both boobs so I asked my PS to check them. She told me that I'm having a reaction to the polyurethane coating on my implants and gave me a course of antibiotics. Apparently it's pretty common!? They are already looking loads better so fingers crossed that won't return once the antibiotics run out.
She also told me not to wear a bra at night. I was a bit nervous about it at first but I'm used to it now.
They are settling slowly although my right one is still noticeably higher. I'm finally starting to get some definition on the sides but have a way to go. My incisions are looking good for 4 weeks. The redness has gone right down but they are still raised and lumpy.
What do you think?

I'm so happy to find someone else with UHP, there aren't many of us.
My PS has had me going without a bra since my surgery so I bet you will see more side boob as you start going without at night. I would actually love for mine to get a bit closer together like yours.

Gosh i cant imagine not wearing one at all! I hated my surgery bras at first but find them quite comforting now. Its going to be so strange wearing a normal bra again in a couple of months. What are you wearing in the daytime just a soft one? or literally nothing? do you wear nipple covers?
Ive got a night out in a couple of weeks and i have absolutely no idea what to wear!?!? i cant wear a normal bra and dont want to risk it but none of my old dresses fit (or they fit but make me look like i REALLY want some attention lol) so im looking at my tops but they all require a bra.... i dont want to buy anything new until i can try them on with a normal bra. Its so hard isnt it!?
Yours might get a little closer as they soften up a bit. Do you have a before photo of them to compare to? Generally the position they end up in is what you had before but just bigger? Yours are looking great though and you get a great cleavage in clothing so you shouldnt worry. They definitely dont look too far apart :-)

Sounds like your incisions are right on track - mine were raised and lumpy at 1 month too- they felt like a hard ridge if I ran my finger along them - but now I can't feel them at all at 15 weeks :-)
How's the no bra at night going? I'm seeing my PS tomorrow for my official 3 month check - my bra at night is like a security blanket - I'm so scared to sleep without it, eeeek! I'm going to see if he gives me permission for a bra free night or two :-)

Still a little tender and swollen but I do think they've dropped a little since my last update.
I'm still not seeing any definition on the sides because of the swelling but they are looking a bit better from the front. My tummy is still a bit swollen too.
I havent taken any painkillers for the last week which I'm happy about. No real pain just tenderness and my incisions do hurt if I reach or stretch. I feel totally comfortable lifting my daughter now but haven't been brave enough to walk my dog on his lead yet.

She did an absolutely amazing job! You look nearly perfect at only two weeks! I can't wait to see when that lower pole fills out even more as they settle.. I would still bet dollars your boobs are pinned up all over operating rooms in the country in a year as wish boobs! Hehe:-)

Haha thank you so much. They still have a long way to go and are still pretty hard but they are progressing well. Can't wait for them to be settled and squishy :-) x

Yeah the time is flying. I'm hoping they will be pretty settled by Christmas.

You're looking really great, they're going to really start finding a lovely shape in the next few weeks.
I wasn't brave enough to walk my dog for my first month - felt that was a step too far - just incase he pulled suddenly - I had crazy visions of my implants falling out haha. By Christmas you're going to be enjoying and appreciating your gorgeous figure to the max :-)
