Love my new boobies!! - Wellesley Hills, MA

Ugh so tomorrow marks my one week since surgery. My boobs are actually no loner swollen. They even feel pretty soft. I'm surprised at how quickly this has happened. But anyways I'm just feeling really sad today. They just aren't what I pictured in my head. I wish I had gone bigger. I mean it is only my fault I asked for a full C and that is what I'm left with but I wish I had asked for a D.

It's crazy how quickly you're body adjusts. I always thought a D would be too big but now that I have the C it still seems too small in proportion to my body. I have wide hips so I really wanted to even them out. I wish I had communicated better with the surgeon, but I honestly didn't really know what I wanted either I guess. They should have a one time exchange policy because it's so hard to imagine how the end result will be.

I mean granted I haven't tried them out with a push up bra yet. I have only seen them in a sports bra/or nothing. They are exactly the same as pre op in clothes because I always wore a super padded bra with even added gel inserts.

People think I'm ridiculous and say they look great and if I went bigger they would have looked fake and too big for my body. But I disagree. I hope this disappointment/ boob greed or whatever it is passes with time. I know I should just appreciate what I have but I just keep thinking about how long I waited for this and the time/money spent.

In the future I will prob end up doing them over and gettin a larger size but I obv don't have the $$ right now plus they say to wait at least a year. If they shrink down any more then this I will cry. Perhaps some retail therapy will help-- or maybe just trying on a few bras and bathing suits to get a better idea of what I have.

Did anyone else feel this way & then get over it? I hope it passes cuz right now it sucks ????

Today is a much better today! I still feel like I have huge rocks in my chest but I know the healing process takes time. They are starting to feel a tiny bit softer but hardly. I do put even need any pain mess anymore just right before I go to bed because sleeping is really uncomfortable. I'm dying to sleep on my stomach and side but it feels like too much pressure right now.

Ugh I'm just so bored. I really feel like I can go back to work on Monday but my PS said I need to relax for at least 7 days. So I have all of this next coming week off to recover. Today I snuck out and went to the plaza up the street real quick just to get out. Oh man just turning the steering wheel was hard. You don't realize all the muscles that are used for simple things until they slice through them for a surgery lol.

Anyways so far I'm really happy with how they Are turning out. I can't wait until they soften up and I can buy some new bras and bathing suits. My PS said by the summer they should have settled enough to look nice in a bathing suit. I feel like I'm really lucky because for mentor saline 360cc smooth round high profile impants they did not "ride high" at all. They just literally looked blow up after the surgery not squarish or very high in my chest as some others I've seen.

I'm very anxious to get back to the gym so they rest of my body matches my boobs! I actually also haven't gotten much bloating at all like other people have mentioned.

Ok well Posted some pics in some unpadded sports bras--which I have been wearing now cuz they are way more comfortable!

The pain is much better today. Haven't' taken a Percocet since 2pm because I'm feeling so nauseas and the zofran isn't helping at all. I'm starting to get nervous that they are too small and going to shrink down too much when the swelling goes away! I guess I'll see what happens ---they haven't changed much since yesterday but ill post a couple pics anyways.
