Hi girls, I know it probably sounds like a really silly question but how long did it take you lucky post BA girls before you were able to lift your arms to put your tops on?!
I have a few button up tops handy for after the op but as it's getting really cold now I was hoping to be able to get into my lovely cosy (sports bra hiding) jumpers pretty sharpish!
Sorry for the daft nature of my question! shrug

No questions a silly one!! I think it took me about a week tbh. And after that it was easy to get things on over my head but did need help getting back out of it. I did have unders tho so don't know if that makes it a little more difficult.

I wore button tops for about 3 days then needed help getting things on anf off for about a week but thats because I had a nerve problem on my right boob, if both had been ok it would have been about a week before i went solo.

Ha ha. Another one of those 'no one size fits all' questions or so it seems.
You weren't hoping for a straight answer were you? lol

I was ok after about 3 days to lift my arms to get in and out of tops, but couldn't life them up completely if that makes sense.

Hysterical any answer is a good answer! well...providing nobody turns round and says 10 weeks post op and still unable to dress themselves! At least I now have an idea (a rough one!) about what i'm in for. :flowers:

I also didn't really wear the button up tops I bought, I didn't have the need for them really.

That's something else to be aware of actually. If you have strapping across the top of your boobs you might want tops that have a high enough neck line to cover it. I ended up pinching my daughters scarves to hang down my front and hide it till it came off about a week later.

It took me a good week before I could raise my arms, I didn't leave the house at all during that time though so it didn't bother me. Like you I was a winter op so I stuck to wearing vest tops big enough for me to step into rather than go over my head and wore the long cardigans over the top. xx
