How long till they soften??

Hi girlies

I know im early days but just curious as to how long it takes for the new boobies to feel less like a couple of rock hard boulders stuck to my chest??

It is exactly like when your milk comes in after you give birth but that went after a day or so lol

They are still very high too, have watched the healing stages video and from that i guess it takes about 3 weeks before they start to drop?

Any advice much appreciated

Hi Shelley,

Firstly congratulations on your new Flash

!!

Early days for softening hun don't expect anything too soon. Although they will start to settle quite a bit over next couple of weeks in terms of healing, softening I found started around 8-9 weeks. I had partials xxx

I think overs from what I've heard do tend to soften quicker, so fingers crossed for you hun xxx

I asked my surgeon this at my post op last week and he said 2-3 months and they should end up feeling like normal boobs Cheerleader

Mine have stopped feeling engorged now and feel a bit softer today.

I agree. I had overs and noticed they felt and looked nicer at about 5-6 weeks post op. BUT I didn't realise how soft they felt a few months after surgery.

Give it time lovely, you'll br groping them one day a few months from now and think 'wow, they got soft!' Hysterical
