Spoke to another nurse who said the Macom was fine and didn't know what the other lady was on about!

Off home soon and I'll get a story up, keep getting so so sleepy x

Ha Ha i suppose everyone's got different opinions eh?! You'll have to let me know if you think the macom is worth it or not.
Glad it was ok having your drains out. Looking forward to reading all about your day Cheerleader

Woohoo you're all done!!

Thanks for keeping us posted Claire - glad to hear the drains weren't too awful! Enjoy your sleep and I look forward to your next post xx

Good luck to Rosygirl - I wish you a good night's sleep and look forward to hearing from you too tomorrow (if you are up to it).

Thanks to all the girls who are keeping us posted - it really helps me to know I am not on my own and what to expect, etc. Not long now!!! dance

clara- keep posting you'll soon become active and also i strongly recommend the macom its been my saviour through this and i got all expensive bras it's the most comfy the one that least rubs the incisions and the softest one for when the burny booby stage begins!! there made specifically for ba's my nurse says its the best purchase ever don't think i'll ever get rid of mine xx

congrats claire hope ur well xx

Hi girls. Paid off my balance today.Thats it, no turning back for me. OMG!

by jordan 10th October 2011, 6:18 pm

Hey girls, need some advice. I am a 34b and I AM GETTING 300 cc . Should I buy a 36c bra for after my op or would you advise a different size. hoping to be a 34 c / d after op

by JBird88 10th October 2011, 6:23 pm

Congratulations on paying off Jordan that must be an amazing feeling!! Ive paid my deposit but I'm paying the rest over 12 months interest free. May pay it off early though if it becomes a drag!!

As for sports bras..... I'm currently 34B, having 410/460cc implants and I've gone for 34DD, 34E and 36DD, to be honest I'm really rubbish with sizing so I've just sort of gone with what i thinks best and then I'll buy more of the size i'm comfiest in!! I don't knwo whether this is a good idea or not but theres so many things it can depend on!!

by jordan 10th October 2011, 6:30 pm

Hi jbird Where did you get your sports bras from? I just ordered a few cheap ones from asda. Do you think I should order the more exspensive branded ones.

by JBird88 10th October 2011, 6:36 pm

I've just got mine from Tescos hun! I'm going with cheap ones until i know what size will fit nicely after the op! To be honest Tesco and Asda didn't have the sizes i wanted so thats partly why i've got a selection of sizes!! I had to keep going in and seeing what they had!!

by jordan 10th October 2011, 6:43 pm

Same as me. Have to keep checking on-line to see if they have my size ( whatever that will be) You have not long to go . Will keep a look out for your story....... x

by Claire1003 10th October 2011, 7:05 pm

Good luck Rosiegirl!!

Well im home now, got back at 6pm so had some dinner and now watching some pish tv my mum has on the box.
Ill get a full story up soon, but all in all a great day and THG were lovely.

The macom bra is very comfy and ill be wearing it for the rest of my healing, just going to get some other ones as the M&S ones are moulded cups so they said they wouldnt support as well.

Going to try a 34D for the swelling so Im hoping for a 32DD in a while when they settle down x

by JBird88 10th October 2011, 7:12 pm

Congratulations Claire!! I'll be relieved when mines over!! Just watching some surgery vids online to pass time!!
And yer 1 week today Jordan!! I'm gonna pack my hospital bag tonight!!!

by wales82 10th October 2011, 7:14 pm

Congratulations claire so glad it all went well for you xxxxx

by Claire1003 10th October 2011, 7:41 pm

Thanks girlies :)

Iv just tried on one of the bras that Im taking back... The 34DD fits a treat but where its a moulded cup and my boobs are solid there are empty spaces. At least I know what size I am at the mo, hoping to stay in the DD dance

OOOOO not long for you two now 6 and 9 days they will fly! Id recommend some sucky sweets for after as your throat will be very sore x

by Clara 11th October 2011, 12:36 pm

Hi all you lovely October ladies :flowers:

After reading Claire and Nikitaw's comments on the Macom ( thanks) I'm defo gona invest in one.
I'm gutted i didn't make it to my pre op with my ps or my pre assesment with the nurse yesterday. Got to wait til his secretary is back tomorrow for her to try and sort it for me. The timing was so perfect for yesterday,Ha Shouldv'e known it wouldn't be that straight forward!

Hope Your having a brilliant day Rosygirl. Who's next on the list?!! EEk 11 sleeps for me til Flash

day!!

by Princess76 11th October 2011, 12:46 pm

Finally there, op tomorrow, am going to pack tonight and get all the last minute bits done in the house before my mum arrives to look after me!

Do I need to take my V pillow with me to the hospital? I'm going to get a duvet and normal pillow in the back of the car so I'm comfy on the way home but wasn't sure about the V one.

Will also pack my macom as I will be taped up but for some reason my surgeon leaves the boobies free so I think I'd feel weird without one!

Oh, and when will I start to realise this is actually happening? I thought it would have sunk in by now!

PS Good luck for tomorrow Bronzewolf x

by Clara 11th October 2011, 1:01 pm

Best of luck for tomorrow!

Hi Girls, glad to hear you are doing really well Claire and I hope Rosygirl is having a good rest today - hope to hear from her tomorrow.

Best of luck Princess and Bronzewolf - I will be thinking of you both - hope you both get a good nights sleep!

Do we have anyone on Thursday?

I am Friday - I will be knackered by then as I cant sleep as it is - good job my boss is understanding!

by millie10 11th October 2011, 3:48 pm

Hey everyone, good luck to all the girls that have ops this week.... so exciting counting down until booby day.

by Claire1003 11th October 2011, 4:46 pm

Good luck for tomorrow girlies, enjoy the going under I loved it, I think Im going to have to go to a GA anonymous group lol

I can recommend the lonsdale sports bras as my mum picked me up a couple today, so comfy (the m&s one was so tight!) xxx

by SuzieW 11th October 2011, 4:54 pm

Hey Girlies,
I am now the proud owner of new bigger boobies!! Waiting for my Ps to come around and tell me what size cc he used; when I was in recovery he told me he used bigger than we discussed!!wwwwhhhhooooo
Have loved the whole experience and the pain isn't that bad. Managed to have a sleep earlier, but the pain was a bit worse when I woke so got good pain relief. My bf is with me and has been amazing.

Good Luck to all the rest of the Octoboober Girlies!!

xx

by nikitaw86 11th October 2011, 5:27 pm
