2 weeks PO - feel great!

Just wanted to put a wee post to say Im now 2 weeks and 2 days Post op and I cant believe how good I feel!!

Finished course of antibiotics and my surgeon has made a follow up appointment for me for tomorrow (very good aftercare so far!). My right boob is still slightly more swollen but Im content that this is normal and its slowly starting to settle more, like its twin!!

Just wondered if others have same experience....Im wondering if its partly because recovery with overs is a bit easier and plus I only had 240cc........how neurotic does this sound??? Is it normal to feel good ???!! Haha, dont mean it like that, but still aware not to overdo it and staying in my sports bras etc, but sometimes I have to remind myself Ive just recently had surgery (until I catch a glimpse in the mirror lol!!).

Fallen in love with boobies and its all good

xx

Glad your feeling well hunni! I hope I feel that good when I eventually get mine done!

Yay Giliian....my friend said it was about the 2 week mark she looked in the mirror and thought wow, this is the best thing I've ever done, and thats how I feel!!

Would def say go for it (and for those small minority who judge, in my opinion its just jealousy!!!)

Can see you're north of the border too hun, where are you getting yours done? xx

Fantastic to hear how good you're feeling sweetheart

It's very normal for some women to have a quick recovery, we all heal at different rates, some are lucky like yourself and recover very quickly, others will take their time to heal, but we all get there in the end

My first BA I was up and ready to go at 3 days post op, I felt great! My second I was knocked for six and took over 2 weeks to recover... But I just took things a day at a time...

Good to read you're aware you're still healing even though you feel good lovely. It's so important to follow your post-op care instructions even if you do feel great, which is difficult at times I know when you feel so good, but I just kept in mind that my after care could be void if I didn't take it easy as instructed and it soon calmed me down lol.

Enjoy the rest of your recovery Katy xx

I had 240 unders and im not quite 2 weeks post op. Although I feel a bit sensitive and sore around the boob area, I feel lots better so maybe it is down to the size a little! Definitely think its one of the best decisions I've ever made

Glad you're feeling so well honey and enjoy your lovely boobies xx

Oh we're similar dates and size then sunshine!

Glad you're recovery is going well too.

I dont know if you saw my earlier posts but I was unsure at first but Im definitely happy now. It is quite a small implant but due my stats (4'11" 39kg) I didnt want to look ridiculous.

What made you go for 240 hun and are you happy with your size too?

xx

Definitely! By two weeks I was thinking what's the big deal... Felt fine doing almost anything... Then trying to open a draw with my bed linen in I unfortunately reminded myself

Now I try to make a conscious effort to not do things I think I can manage, they even tell me off at work haha.

I think overs are a lot easier... Plus it's an operation you wanted so with a positive mind set you can put any little twinges of pain into persfective!

Glad you're feeling well and that you love your boobies they look great! :thumbs: X

Hey hunni!
I'm still waiting to see my first consultant. I have got my first appointment at the end of June with John Telfer through My breast . Kinda anxious bout this one as i cannot find any info on him. Also waiting on transform getting bk to me with a consultant appointment.
I wont be getting them done until the end of october (due to annual leave issues ) so I guess I'm kinda stuck waiting on lists coming out & things.
Just want to get started tho & wish it would all hurry up!
Where did u go hunni?
Hugs xx

Thanks Alice, thats good advice, I do get a wee twinge now and again, so trying to take it easy as much as I can (my little tootsy running rings round me tho!!).

Gillian I totally understand about the wanting to hurry up, just remember they'll be with you for a lifetime and October will fly in!!

I was restricted with dates in my work as well, I guess its important you have as much time as necessary to recover and not have the added pressure of going back to work too soon!

I went to the Nuffield Hospital in Glasgow and it was Mr Morley who did mine. I have to say apart from a wee episode of insensitivity from a staff member at my pre-op in relation to my weight loss, which I dealt with and since then the service and aftercare has been excellent.

I left the decision utimately about size down to my PS and he obviously knew what would look right as initially i wasnt sure, but I think Ive got the right size for my frame, although who knows, the boob greed monster may visit again haha!!!

Wish you well Gillian, keep us updated on how your consultations go. You'll certainly be pre-armed with lots of good info from this forum!!

Glad to hear you're doing well honey!x

Thanks Sophie xx Long may it continue!! x
