Hi
i had my BA on the 29th of April i was just wondering if some one could tell me how long it will take for them to soften up there so hard right now, and how long did it take before it stopped hurting , Flash

Hey Hunni!
I havent had mine done yet but i've read that it takes about 1-2 weeks for the pain to ease off.... and 3-4 weeks to soften up.
BUT EVERYONE is different in their healing process so it varies a lot.
I've read stories of ladies that didnt experience any pain whatsoever and then others having to wait for months for them to soften..
So in reality no one can tell you the exact time these things will happen, it will just happen eventually and im sure it wont take too long!!!!
Congrats on the new assets hehe

Im 5 days post op and its not so sore now..they are softening a bit too. Just be patient :) Its amazing seeing the difference evryday.Just dont over do things.Rest, rest, rest.Hard to do I know but it is better to let them heal a bit before you do too much.Have you felt air bubbles yet?? :)

Yea im hopeless when it come to resting im siting a lot but i cant help but go visit friends and keep occupied, and yea i think ive felt air bubbles like tiny bubble things that move when u press them i haven't checked alot but its mainly were the stitches are its the strangest feeling.
ill get to see my doctor this Friday will be nice to get some reassurance, did you have much bruising, i do only a little but its only one one side

It took about 3 months for mine to start softening, they continued to soften then up until 8/12 months when they had full movement and softness just as a real breast would - They're always going to feel a little firmer than a real breast though when you give them a good old squeeze lol but just to touch, they feel absolutely natural. xx

mine have started to soften after about 5 days, n now at ten days, i can move them both quite a lot, and the top feels really, quite soft! the left bob is ahead of my right boob tho, my right boob is a littttlllle bit bigger, dont know if that has anything to do with it??, they havnt really dropped yet tho, just gone softer shrug

Mine started to soften about about a month but then I had a reop after 10 weeks so started all over again! They softened much quicker the second time around tho I guess because of the placement chance. Patience is the key I'm afraid. ReSt as much as possible and it will happen in it's own time xxx
