September Buddies

Aww buzzy sorry to hear you aren't we'll, fingers crossed for you feeling better chick.

Well I'm still not taking and pain relief just using ice packs apart from paracetamol before bed x

Nice to hear how you're all doing ladies, I hope teaspoon doesn't have to wait too long, that's the worst bit!
I had my wound check today, waterproof dressings off and everything is healing really well  
 I now just have steri-strips to keep the scars healing nicely for the next 6 weeks! The waterproof dressing was really starting to itch so I'm glad that's gone .

Keep the updates coming ladies 

Thanks girls, I'm sure I will be better soon...x

Katy, glad to hear your dressings are off and you're healing well. You will be hopefully itch free now xx

Hopefully teaspoon will be all done soon, there's nothing worse than waiting around..........xx

Oh poop my reply just went! 

Katy how did it go? My check up is on Monday and I'm worried about them taking the dressings off lol :( 

UPdate- so my avi was taken on day 2 and when I was out of my bra I was still a little unhappy with the look... The puffy areolas was still quite bad from the tuberous shape pre Ba and my nipples were very low HOWEVER! Just had another look and they are looking much better already!! Can see slight differences and my nipples (sorry princess) are now pointing outwards equally (for today) lol and they areolas are looking better too... It's crazy how much better they look from day 2 so hopefully they will get better still!! 

I'm feeling positive today ladies- big hugs :D xx

That's good Jen, I have heard you can see changes each day, so that's good to know.......imagine what they will look like in a week or so.........xx

Lol kel70 yes they r mighty haha I love them and hopefully will love them both now ive had my capsulectomy xxxxx

Awwwww natty I'm sure you will love them both.
Fantastic avi Hunni, look gorgeous!!!! Xx

Aww thanks bizzy.i do love them both now ;). Only 4 days til ur op! U excited? Xxx

After jay tomorrow it's you next bizzy!! Hope teaspoon is ok xxxx

I hope shes ok too.do u know what time teaspoons surgery is? I knowvit was sum time this afternoon xxx

I'm not sure what time it was, she said she wasn't allowed to eat after 8am so if you add 6 hours that's 2pm so ild guess teaspoon might be done now hopefully xxx

I don't have to go in until 12.30 on ba day wonder what time I'll get done .

Hopefully not to late kel... My admission was 1130 but didn't go down until 340... I was 2nd to last on the list xx

Hey girls

Teaspoon best of luck honey hope all went well babe can't wait to hear from you with an update!

Natty glad it all went well for you babe!

MrsG - I'm the same I have to say, I'm expecting it to all go wrong now. I don't seem to be too limited with the use of my arms, got myself dressed in an over the head poloshirt today without too much bother and have down graded from co-dydramol to paracetamol. Ice packs too are a god send. 

Jen - glad you feel like you're changing every day for the better....because I can't even look at my boobies I have no idea whats going on under the strapping! 

My nipples feel a bit numb, esp the righty, but sensation comes back if I rub them long enough - and a lot quick in my leftie. They're still looking huge. But not too big for my frame. I just feel like I'll have no idea until reveal day on Tues!!! Its so hard, I hope I'm not totally gutted. THe shape seems nice under the dressings. THey're really really hard to the touch though but I think thats normal? Are you post op girls still the same?

Bizzy - I'm sorry you're still feeling poo honey, on the plus side it should've all come out by boobie day. Keeping everthing crossed for you darling.

xXx

Sassy, mine are very hard on top and the cleavage area... They are softer underneath I think but quite numb there... It's so strange having the numbness I think, makes you conscious not to hurt them lol xx

Ps:

Michelle - LOVING your pic trail, and if you don't mind me saying they were a lovely shape before your BA too! Mine were all horrible and pointy and hacky sack like lol. You must be so pleased! Sorry its taken me so long to pull my finger out and look. Its been a funny couple days.

MrsG - WOW! Another fantastic pair, they are HUGE BOOBIES!!!! You must be well chuffed honey. Loved the pic of you all drawn up, I've got one of those of me too in my paper knickers lol. 

I will do a pic trail when I eventually get to see my new assets. Providing that is that I actually like them. God can you imagine?! All this getting excited about shape and size then underneath its like somthing out of a horror shot and thats why they insisted on my being unable to see for a week?! EEEEeeeeeekkkkkk!!!!!

Oh forgot to metion earlier, the only other discomfort I've had really has been my lower back, above my tail bone but at the very bottom of my lumbar spine - do you think thats from sleeping sat up right? Anyone else had that at all?

I don't to be suffering too much from buddha belly either....not that I'm complaining.......hows everyone elses experiences been on that front?? 

xxxx

Yea mine are hard all over except at the sides and sort of numb everywhere   xxx

Oh and sassy, the back pain had been the most uncomfortable part of this whole journey so far! I think it's from the sleeping position but also I'm hunching a lot even though I'm trying not to... Ill be happy when it eases off, all I want is to sleep on my side!! Xx

Aww me too hon! And now I'm catching up with all the posts on here I want to be laying on my front LOL!!! Oh well...in time eh!

The bottom of my back just feels bruised like Ive hit it somehow! Odd, I havent noticed myself hunching really I dont think. xxx

Any word on teaspoon yet? 

How r we all doing just now girls. Any tips on how to ease the itchy stitches I feel myself rubbing them over the bra but its not satisfying me lol

For the itching  an antihistamine helps I've heard! I'm doing ok! No word on teaspoon yet :( hopefully she's having done food and feeling ok xx

Ahhh good idea Jen ill try some piritin. I've not got much of an appetite today the Buddha bloat is kinda putting me off....did manage to go to the toilet earlier tho hahahahahaha

Thanks Sassy!!!!
yes itching is annoying!!!! antihistamine does the trick!!! yup, lower back pain now and again and numb butt half way through the night!!!! was huncing from about wens but much easier standing straight now, maybe due to strapping coming off or less swelling?  

Hope everyone is recovering well!!!!
xox

Natty, I am really excited now, I'm begining to feel better. Bit of a stressful day today but i can breathe better..... That's a good sign surely..........

Jen, is it me after jay.... Oh my god........ This is coming around way too quick. You feeling o.k Hunni? 

Sassy, I'm on the mend Hunni. Hoping by Saturday I be cold free...... 
I think for the backache you can get those wheat bags and put them in the microwave. I used those when I had kidney stones they were fab........ You just place them on the achey area...... It may help bit.....

Mrsg, would you be able to take piriton for that Hunni. They are really good for itchiness... That would drive me nuts.....

Still nothing on teaspoon hope she's Ok......
