Think i've overdone it...

Arghhh i'm so angry with myself right now!
I stayed at my boyfriends house last night - which was a complete disaster - he said he'd give me lots of pillows etc as I was going to have to sleep propped up and his Mum gave me a V-pillow but that wasn't nearly enough. I had a horrible night, uncomfortable and hardly slept a wink and then woke up in the morning and my bf realised he wasn't going to be able to take me home as he was working. This meant that I had to get 2 buses (with a walk inbetween them) in order to get home, laden with all my stuff from staying over + my handbag (and I don't travel light!)
Now, both boobs, especially the left, are aching so much towards the middle of my chest and the muscle feels like it's really been overworked from carrying the bag and I feel like i'm back to square one. It especially hurts in my left when I take a deep breath. I pretty much couldn't feel an ache at all anymore and I was trying to be so careful with everything and now i'm going to have to wait longer to drive/get back to normal cos i've pushed myself too far. I'm so angry and upset. :pale:
Sorry to moan but now i'm worried I would've done something to hurt them and I feel as if they're going to swell right up again.

:pale: :pale:
I really feel as though I want to blame my bf for this too as I don't think he quite realises how easy I have to take it. Maybe I just feel like I want to blame someone.
But arrrgghhh i'm annoyed.

xxxxxxx

Just take it really easy tonight and have some painkillers. Im sure you will feel alot better tomorrow and havent set yourself back too much.
No-one truly knows except us BA girls what the healing process is like but, blame away if it makes you feel better!

Aww I'm sorry hunny that you are in pain, men they dont realise how much we have to go through. He should have at least ordered you a taxi to take you home.

I know, he really should've done! :pale:
I've sent him an angry text telling him how awful I feel now i've had to lug my great big bag around with me all day - lets hope he feels as guilty as is necessary.
Will take some painkillers and sit in front of the tv feeling sorry for myself.

I'm just so sick of the healing now, I want to get back to normality and I really felt like I was. It's like it's a reminder to not do too much too fast.

Thanks for your support girls, as always, it's much appreicated! :) xxxx

Men are so thoughtless some times. How could he not think in advance that he wouldn't be able to take you home? Hope he buys you lots of chocolates to make up for it!!

Get your feet up and take it easy for a while, sure you'll be ok with a rest.

Take care x

hi honey, you will be ok I am sure, take some painkillers. About three days after I had mine done I reached into the bath and twisted something. The pain was awful and I was so worried I had popped something, but after a few days and some pills it eased off. No damage done, so Prob just strained some muscles. rest up and take care lovely. x

Oh rest up hun!!! just your body telling you to take it easy......anger is not going to help you. Just me kind to yourself xxxxx

Just rest and in a day or two you'll be fine Rosanna. I remember I tried cooking a meal the third week and was just stirring stuff and lifting a wok and pouring things and I felt so sore and swollen afterwards. It takes a little while before you can do all the normal stuff again xx

Revenge: Don't let him see or touch...dr's orders!

Aw hope your feeling ok hun, like the ladies said get some rest you should be feeling better in a couple of days

xx

Aw hunny its not your fault, you were testing how much you could cope with, but youve learnt from it as you now know that it was a bit much too soon. Id be cross with him too, a taxi was the least he could have done- perhaps not see him for a couple of days and give yourself a chance to get back to where you were comfort wise- then if he wants to see you he has to come to you and it be on your terms.

Hope your feeling a bit better today hun, men are so brainless

Just make sure you take it easy for a while hunni, unless you've been through a ba you dont understand just how painful the recovery is and as your OH he really shouldnt have made you get the bus home...men eh?? Rest up and the healing process will get a little easier as time goes by, xxxxx

Aw hope your resting now hun, maybe a bad idea to go round his, but you trusted he would look after you, take it easy xx

Hope you feel better today....thinking of you xx

Aw, you girls are all so lovely!! :)
You all really know exactly how it feels - thank you so much for all being so nice!

Feeling a little better today, but now am pretty swollen again after over-doing it yesterday! My bra's hurting loads - like i'm bursting out of it (or maybe they're just growing....hmm, lets hope so!)
I woke up in the middle of the night with really bad stomach cramps too - panicked a little as I thought something was really wrong, but I drifted back off to sleep and they've vanished this morning. Weird!

Anyway, I've just taken it easy today - need to keep telling myself that the easier I take it now, the quicker it'll be that i'm back doing normal things.

Thanks again girls - really don't know where i'd be without the great help from this site!! xxxxx

Aw glad things are a bit better for you today, that was really insensitive of your BF hun, has he apologised?
That was a bit too much for you to do without a doubt and you need to make sure you take some extra rest & care of yourself until you're feeling much better.
I felt so sorry for you reading your post, i bet you felt like crying on them buses :pale:
love & hugs to you x x
