Weird Bath Experience

by starsfade 24th August 2011, 2:56 pm

I'm 3 weeks post op and had a bath last night; a nice hot and steamy relaxing bath. i made sure to keep my incisions out of the water of course but was still able to lie back a little and steam definitely got near them (I dried them with tissue periodically)...But while i was in there i swear i felt my boobs drop. It was like the steam relaxed me and my muscles/tissue so that the implant was able to move into place better. When i got out i noticed i had a crease/fold thingy under my boob for the first time ever (!)

Anyone else had this? xxxx

Thanks I have bought some gel ice packs, but question:

what is wasabi paste? Do you mean the edible wasabi? sorry for the stupid question - perhaps it's an English thing??

yes - sorry its the edible wasabi paste. it just so happened that i had a long, thin squeezy tube the fridge and it was perfect size for middle of boobs lol. other things i craved upon release from hospital were: a variety of sweet, cold drinks like juice, fizzy water and lollipops. i also wanted to chew and suck things (not like me think it was the drugs0 so got some hard sweeties :-)
