36 Years Old and 6 Kids Later - Nashville, TN

Just being nosy, you mentioned you hubby went for 30 day tdy for training. Is he back? Is he supportive of your recover?

Thanks for posting the pictures. I'd say we are very much at a similar state of healing. My nipples are not so nicely round as yours. Mine have a kind of wonky, asymmetrical look to them. The centre of my nipples really stand upright though, and are very sensitive. Too sensitive actually!! I have taken to wearing nursing shields not because of leakage but just to protect those poor, overly sensitive nipples! Even the slightest brushing of a light fabric against them hurts. When I'm not wearing the elastic tube like tension bandage I was given (no surgical bra was given or recommended), I've taken to wearing a very tight, stretchy zip front bra just to compress the breasts and minimize the brushing of fabric against my nipples. I sure hope this over sensitivity is not permanent!

looking really good

You look like you're healing beautifully! Very happy for you! :)

Not bad at all! I think you are looking good!!

Man! some of my pictures did not load for this week...sigh I will add the other ones from this week again Wovenflame

I had the same surgery date as you, and my healing is at about the same state. I still have a small amount of seepage under my left breast. It is coming from an opening that is slightly longer than yours. I think it will heal fine. I put Polysporin on the area twice daily to prevent infection. I can't say whether it is normal or not as I haven yet seen the PS. My checkup appointment is Friday. That's a little later than it would have otherwise been but I had an existing appointment for a consult on carpal tunnel surgery and we decided to do the breast follow up at the same appointment rather than booking another.
