Day 9 post op

Haak4
Feels less tight today and hubby thinks the infected booby looks less red. Took bra off for a couple of minutes to wash and boy I couldn't wait to get it back on - throbbing!!! Yesterday did motive some spots of blood coming through new tape in exactly same place on both boobs, has any one else had this? Wondering if I've damaged it by pulling or lifting. I'm feeling brighter though so today gets a thumbs up.

I know and I'm trying to not do anything but I have a four yr old and two yr old at home. My husband has been great but I'm feeling he's losing patience with me a little now ( as am I) I haven't done any stupid heavy lifting but have been trying to keep up with the washing and cooking etc.

loading a washing machine and hanging out laundry were 2 things i did not do for quite a while.

It just takes time to get to the point of comfortable sleeping.  As I healed things got easier.  Hang on and everything will turn around for you.

Follow up appt went well although I have a wound infection so commenced antibiotics. Consultant said it will set me back a bit :( still sore, tight and throbbing but I guess this is due to infection. Really hope it heals without any further issues. Still not sleeping and the no showering is awful. Ad couple of days really.

I hope your infection heals quickly. You are going to be so happy with your new size, congratulations!

Thankyou, I know that this is just a rocky time but ultimately it is going to be so worth it. My neck already feels so much easier.

You look like ur healing well. I am on antibiotics now as a preventive measure. Surprised they didn't do that with you. If that's ur only issue, praise God! I think we look similar size post op. What are u wearing for support?

Hi, sorry to hear you've been having such a tough time! I've been wearing firm support bras from m&s and support bra from sainsburys, alternating between both depending on how much support I need and pain. What about you?

I've got a Royce front open and alternate with shock absorber front open. My ps said I can wear nothing but no one else on here had that advice so I didn't listen. Might see what M&S have. Happy healing x

Hope the infection sorts out, why can't you sleep? Are you doing 5 pillows, 2 for head and shoulders, one either side for arms and one under knees - bliss!

Thanks, I'm struggling as I'm not a back sleeper at all so find I'm aching a lot, dose off then inadvertently turn on to my side then wake with a kilt cause of pain. I'm currently using a v-pillow but will try your 5 pillow suggestion, many thanks. :)
