all checked in at Abbey Riverside...now to wait

I'm feeling good thanks flowergirl! Am really hoping it stays like this!

My left arm and arm pit has lovely bruising on it already am now on my way home and looking forward to gettting in my own bed :-)

How u doing sharon? Yes apparently overs have a quicker recovery. Xxxx

im all relaxed in bed my bf is looking after me, im trying to restrict my movements but its hard to and its so automatic to move your arms lol, my muscles were cut so thats where the pain is coming from along...

my friend is dropping over some more suitable bra's this evening as the one i have is awful.

im hoping i dont get boobie blues as i havent gone too big..

I can see myself getting booby greedy!!! Eek!
I'm nearly home! Looking forward to fish and chips :-)

The GA certaintly didn't ruin my appetitie! I want to eat the entire world right now! Haha... How's your appetite?

Little bit scared to see how my dog reacts (chihuahua) I don't want him to jump at me so parents are on dog watch!

I got the nurse to change my bra from 34F to 36E and I feel much better now. Xxxx

Lol mine either just eaten 2 homemade burgers haha, I think mine maybe a bit small if so I will more 2moro, but my surgeon is really strict with support trial and error I guess. Ahhh your poor doggy will b confused as to what is going on. I haven't told my parents lol scared will need to brave it one day :) xx

hi girls congrats on your new additions its been fab reading all about your day, happy healing ladys Xxxx

lola I can't believe how you are its so nice to hear you are doing so well

sharon I am going to have unders so it would be nice for you to update your process but only when you feel up to it, my surgeon already told me at the consultation that I would be in a lot of pain, I am trying to think the worst pain more painful than child birth I have had 2 children

Quick and happy healing to you both

Lola....How did you get on??? How is it all feeling - I'm seeing Mr Khan next Tuesday at Riverside...Getting really anxious now...

Good morning Jen,

I am still in pain but its bearable its worse when you first wake up as you are stiff, I'm in day 2 of recovery and I have more movement in my arms today my chest is still very tight, but I am a bit of a wimp lol so I am taking the pain killers :-). My bf is doing a great job of looking after me so I'm very lucky.

Oh I also have a numb bum haha not used to sitting on it for so long. I reckon you will be fine seens as you have had 2 children I can't imagine giving birth :-).

The key to a good recovery is just resting and not thinking you are super woman and letting you body heal. Xxx

I'm struggling already. I keep wanting to stand up. But I don't suppose this will do me harm! I'm not that bloated yet but it is started. I have a packet of apricots in my pocket and have one every now n then! Haha. I was very stiff this morning but I took pain killers at 6 then got out of bed at 8 and am no sitting in an armchair.

Ssjj you'll be fine hun, what implant size are u getting? Unders/overs? He's very blunt. When I was waiting in my room he just walked in no knocking or anything. So be prepared! Haha. Also I felt like cattle going to market, he came in drew all over me. Stuck a post it note with god knows what written on it and took loads of photos! Haha I was giggling away (nervous laughter) xxxx

Pain killers are a god send :-) I have moved to the sofa today although not sure how I'm going to get up as its super soft.

My aloe vera juice isn't working with bloating but not giving up body needs to adjust lol

Rest up hun take it easy :) xx

Oh Lola....struggling to stand up...is that because its sore?
Did you stay in over night? I'm worried about how I'm going to wash my hair too...as have long hair...ahhh hee hee...
I'm currently a 34c/d and have opted for 380cc overs, but am having slightly different sizes in each just to even them up....plus an uplift....Mr Khan thinks I should go to a dd....I don't really want to go any bigger than that, hopefully I won't.
How long have you taken off work? Do you feel like you could drive etc....Hope you aren't in too much pain x

I couldn't try now and wouldn't even attempt it. I'm only 24 hours post op. My car insurance (diamond) said I'm not covered due to the GA for at least 7 days post op. I'm due to go back next thursday. I'm hoping ill feel ok by then. .

I'm fine standing up and sitting down. Its hard to get up from lying down by myself!!! But I am only on day one! I'm just not the sitting round type. I have to get up every hour just to have a little stretch and wander then ill sit back down for a while. xxx

I'm the same....will try and keep moving around.....I am excited but sooo scared too....Have you had a look to see what they are like? Are they smaller/bigger than you thought?
I'm getting the train there next Tuesday morning....and my friend is picking me up the next day...off to buy M&S bra and zipped top at the weekend in preparation.
Ooooh what painkillers are you taking too? Just want to be prepared :) X

Hey LB xx

Glad all went well hun xx Sorry I missed you xx I ended up staying the night as I was last in, but that was fine it's sooo nice there!!! I was just hungry, I haven't stopped eating haha!!!

Take it easy today sweetpea remember to keep those elbows glued to your sides!! Walking about in the house if you feel up to it will do you good hun and will help get your system working properly again xx

Happy healing xx

Ah Kay its so lovely to hear from u. I asked my nurse if ud been operated on yet. But I think I was so high yday I don't remember what her answer was! Haha.

Its so nice there! I would of happily stayed over! Haha. Did not appreciate those bumps on the way out of the car park!!!!

I'm getting up every hour or so just to stand up and shuffle around for a bit!

Howa are u feeling now?xxxxx

What room were you in lovely, I tried to look at their map thingy but couldn't quite clock all of it and where you were xx

After about an hour my OH went to check how long it was going to be and that's when they said that I wasn't in till later and that really they wanted me to stay for the night xx he came back a bit upset about this and so I was like "well, if that's what they would prefer......it's a bit inconvenient but...." secretly i was thinking WHOOOP WHOOP!!! GET IN THERE hahahahahaha!! It is sooooo lovely there isn't it??

I'm feeling good really, my arms are fine, I'm a bit sore across the top of my chest which is weird and a bit stingy, burny along my incisions but other than that okay xx probably still a bit high from the GA and pain killers haha xx

How are you feeling? xx

I even saw Mr K afterwards this time (I didn't last time) but I was out of it hahaha so just remember saying thanks over and over hahaha xx

Glad all you lovely ladies are doing well. Its so nice to read your little tips etc

My biggest tip is to take a book!! Don't be like me and take one that you have nearly finished and then be waiting so long you finish it!!!

Lol kay.
I am going down for op at 8 to 9 am so I better not be waiting round to long, doubt i will be up for reading much after op but will be taking my book and mp3 with me xxxx

Oooooo, good luck gorgeous xx Bet you are excited xx

I was there for 1030 and then waited till 1415.............I hate waiting, get very impatient haha xx

Ah no. That's not cool that they made u wait! I didn't even have time to have a wee!
I as admitted (I keep saying checked in haha) at 7 and nurse was doin my tests gowns etc till half 7. Khan came in about 8 and then anaethetist then 8.30 I was walking to theatre! All happened very quickly!

Khan came back to see me about 4 I think. He's so funny! I just giggled at him! Then I left there aout 4.30 I was a bit sad! The nurses were just so lovely and I wanted to hug them all for being so lovely to me and my parents! I didn't really like the anaethetists nurse she was so rude and seemed to make me more nervous!! Mind u she could of been the cutest little puppy and I would of felt the same! Haha... I'm gonna write my diary soon but just can't face it now!!

I was in room 8. You? My left boob and arm is aching and I have a burning sensation underneath which I can only assume is my incision?? Not looking forward to having this tape removed! Does ur result seem better than last time? xxxx

LB I was getting more and more nervous by the minute!! Thing is I arrived and checked in at 1030 and they took me straight to my room and got me to changed into the gown, which I put on back to front incidentally much to the nurses and my amusement hahaha, and my paper knickers, then they left me sitting there all dressed up with no one to blow.....!! I hate being shut away as well I feel like I'm missing out on stuff haha xx Looking back it's not that long to wait I suppose, just felt like an eternity yesterday xx There was me thinking in and out in a couple of hours hahaha xx The OH had to go to Tesco and buy me a toothbrush hahah xx

They are all soo lovely aren't they!!?? and what a nice place!! Like a five star hotel xx

Ahhh Man!! I was room 10.....just across the corridor!!! Wish I'd known I'd have come visited you xx

The localised burning sensation is the incision site, yes, nothing to worry about xx Keep on top of your pain killers if you need them hun xx The strapping is awful coming off, it's the worst bit I think xx

Result seems better, they seem much higher and tighter than last time xx I was in there for an hour and a half so something must be different hahaha xx they seem smaller than first time round which is fine by me xx I'm going to try not to analyse and stare at them too much this time round xx

How about you gorgeous? Do you like what you see? xx

I'm happy with wwhat I can see so far. Only seen them once today when I had a shower earlier.they've changed so much since yday! They were v v v pointy yday and today my lefty has gone round :-)

I'm taking the pain killers every 6 hours! Even though he told me not to unless I need them.
Ah we were so close. I had two new toothbrushes with me. Could of left everything with u! Oh well! I'm in fulham on tuesday to get this tape off! Not looking forward to that! Although I am desperate to have a look!

I'm glad mine all happened very quickly. I am not patient at all and that would of driven me mad! Haha! I couldn't wait to eat either! Had my sandwich like straight away! Haha xxxx

How did you manage to shower I was told I'm not allowed one for 7 days :( stinky bum haha I'm just having baby wipe washes, I have to take the pain killers every 6 hours can't cope without the pain is too much. Mine have dropped a little but only ever so slightly with being unders it will be different to me. I was in room 4 I bet we were all so close. Oh my god those speed bumps where awful weren't they :).

Afternoon snooze I reckon, need to up date my diary but can't switch my laptop on, using blackberry at the moment.

Happy healing kay glad it went well, it lovely staying over they look after so well. Xx

Aw man we were all so close xx Thanks Sharonk, same to you lovely xx

How did you manage a shower LB?? Like Sharonk I've been told no water until nurse says it's okay........booooooooooo!! Also the medical officer had a right go at me this morning cause I lifted my arms up to point at my boobs!! He told me that for 10 days I wasn't to lift my arms out to the side or above my head BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

First time round I took my pain killers regular xx I only had uplift this time so not as bad as last time xx

I'm in Finchley on Tuesday LB having my strapping off, not looking forward to it either xx Mr K came in whilst I was scoffing my sarnies down so I was pleased that he didn't hang around to chat hahaha!!
