1 month post op update
WORTH IT$7,000
Well here I am, one month post op! I say this so often but I really can't believe that I actually got surgery and have made it to one month post!! It has been a great journey for me and I'm so thankful to have such a supportive community of ladies to share it with - so thank you girls! :-)
As far as healing goes, I pretty much feel back to normal. I can do all of my regular day to day activities without any problems. The only thing I still experience occasionally is a pulling feeling in my incisions when I reach too far for something. It mostly happens when I try to reach something on the top shelf of the cabinet, or when I'm vacuuming, or when I'm reaching for toys under my kids beds! Otherwise, everything is awesome!
The scars are healing well. I will post pics of those later. I've been using scar treatment gel as well as the scar away strips as much as possible. They really do make a HUGE difference!
The girls are doing marvelous. I can sleep on my side comfortably now and the morning boob is even getting much better. I haven't been brave enough to try sleeping on my stomach but I'm sure I will one day. My right (which is your left when you look at my pictures) is still sitting slightly higher but they are both very squishy and soft! My nipples look like they point different directions which is kind of weird but I think it's my natural anatomy that I never noticed before because I was so flat. I'm not sure if that will resolve once the right drops more or if it will always be this way. I'm happy either way! Lol
Anyway, that's about all I have to update for now. I've enjoyed following everyone's stories and recoveries so please leave comments or questions for me!! Oh, and sorry for so many pictures. I figured the more the better to capture different angles.

Bra size!
So I finally had a few extra minutes today to run to Victoria's Secret and get sized. I tried on the recommended size which was 32DD but it was a little snug so I went for the sister size 34D and it fit perfectly!! I only tried on a few of their wireless bras, none of the really cute ones. I'll go back on a day when I have some more time to try some of those on!
So verdict is 34D at 2.5 weeks post op. This size is perfect for me so hopefully it doesn't change!! ????

Looks great! I'm the same size too! I agree, will be fun to go bra shopping for better bras later on!
So happy you found a good size that fits! They all look great! I can't wait for the day when I feel like I can run out and try on some bras. Less than 24hrs hours post op and feelin the pain. Lol
I want a full d maybe DD I'm 5'1 and 110 pounds but I figure if I'm paying all this might as well be able to see them lol but my dr does not use sizers just wants me to show pictures my pre opp is March 2 so I'm excited!!!! And the look great girl
You definitely have to know what look you're going for! I personally wanted a very natural look and these gave me exactly that. I don't look top heavy at all - in fact they look very natural like I was born with them! My husband agrees, any bigger and I would definitely look more fake so I'm very happy I didn't go any bigger!
Your breasts are definitely going in the wish pic folder! simply stunning! you must be so happy with your result! x
such a stunning cleavage line, shape and size for your frame! plesae keep uploading pics! if you could upload some from the side that would be fabulous - I want to show my PS your beautiful natural slope! well done on following what the PS suggested and trusting that the 450cc HP's would provide the look you were after - they look amazing!! x
Sure! I am coming up on my one month post op and I will post new pics and some comparisons. I don't really see much of a difference except my right has dropped more so it's more even with my left now. I'll post more pics in a day or so. Thanks for the kind words!!
Oh brilliant, thank you so much!!! my surgery is in 10 days! very nervous but seeing results like this instills a lot of comfort and confidence. Glad you are healilng well and thank you again! xx
also - it is HP you went with in the end?? x
Yep 450HP smooth round unders! What are you getting?
very similar! i'm going for 400 hp round unders! we'll have to follow each others journey =) x
and I would be oh so happy if mine turn out similarly to yours, they are just stunning!
Yes definitely will follow you. Have you asked your surgeon about doing the tear shaped implants?? That should get you a very natural slope that you are looking for.
Yeah i dont think im suited to tear drops with the nature of my tissue to sag and im not sure im willing to take the risk either, ive seen some amazing natural (but full) results with round implants so here's hoping!
Oh that makes sense. I love my results so I'm sure you will too!
Thank you, me too! Positive thoughts! Xx

They look so good at 2 weeks and hardly awoken! Are you loving the results??
I do love them! I'm not sure if my right nipple is sitting higher than my left due to the implant not dropped enough or because of my natural anatomy. I never noticed any asymmetry in my nipples before but it doesn't mean it wasn't there! Either way, it's not so far off that it really bothers me, especially since they are covered up by bras or tops anyway :) I won't be showing my nipples off on a daily basis to anyone! LOL
i looked back at your day 1 pics. Wow !! Beautiful for just being 2 weeks Miracleaura!!! They wlll continue looking better !!!
aww thanks! I can't wait to see what they look like in another 2 months :)
Omgomgomgomg. Every single time I see a photo update from you I get so jelly. They look sooooooooooo [RS bleep] amazing!!! Like from day 1 that looked marvelous.
I'm over here so impatient waiting for them to drop and fluff so they can look as perfect as yours.
But in all seriousness I'm so happy for you!!! They look amazing!!! You should be a boob model, if the have those. Lol

yours look awesome too! but thank you I appreciate the reassurance...sometimes I'm my own worst critic and I worry about them, but either way I know I'm much better off than I was before! I have nothing to complain about. I'm following you too so keep updating so we can see all the changes. I can't wait to see how yours D&F!!
It's true that we are our own worst critic. Someone posted yesterday that my boobs were their wish boobs, and I was like "what, really?!?" Because I think mine look so gosh darn high.
Looking forward to both our journeys!

Wow what a compliment!!! They do look nice so take it and flaunt it!
Lookin great!! :)
Thank you for Sharing your story and photos. Your girls look fabulous. I'm also scheduled to get 450 cc high profile implants on March 8th . I'm happy to see your photos because our stats are quite similar and I've been seconding guessing whether 450 is way too big for me. Are you quite happy with the size you chose?
Yes! I'm very happy. It all depends on the look you're going for. I personally didn't want to draw attention to myself around my friends and family who I wasn't planning on telling about my surgery, so in that respect, I'm easily able to hide them under clothes (I used to wear highly padded bras so I don't look a whole lot bigger now unless someone's really staring and paid attention to how big I looked with the padded bras before). On the other hand, I'm able to show them off by wearing tighter, lower cut, or more revealing tops if I want. They look much bigger naked which I'm happy about. The challenge with my friends and family who I didn't tell will be in summer time when I wear my bikini again...I think it'll be quite obvious at that point! ;-) If you have any questions, feel free to ask any time!!
