September Buddies

That's great :D glad your happy!! 
I didn't get given any more antibiotics, just enough for four days! 
They asked for my permission to let my dr know which a accepted just incase! 
I didn't like the codeine either! Just had it for the first few nights! I hated laying down as it heightened all of the weird feelings! 

Woohoo 1215 :D can't wait to hear how it goes xx

Hi girls, great to read your loving your new boobies..  I was back at work today and it was draining, just say at a desk bit still feel totally shattered. .  

My boobs still feel like they are going to burst out of my sorts bra come the afternoon, I've got a D coming to try add I was unable to find one in the shops I had to order one. .  

It felt weird at work today as no one knows what I had done and it just made me feel a bit cheeky in a weird way. . I caught a couple of people looking at me diffrrently but had a scarf on so you couldn't really see. .. 

Xxx

Jen When can you get measured? X

I came home with quite a few tablets, I had strong ibuprofen, codeine, a weeks course of antibiotics and paracetamol. Was like a little walking chemist when I left.
I was frothing at the mouth when I took the codeine ( like a rabid dog) was awful........ Much better when that left my system.
My lower back today is killing me....... Awful............
I am excited about tomorrow...... Going for lunch after to celebrate....... What am I like, and popping in shop to see girls and maybe getting my hair done, then I will feel on top of he world.............. YAAAAAAAAAAAAAY.....xx

Hi bex, it must be awful that first day back...... Bet it feels like you never been off.....
I feel like the hulk in my bra today, like it's just going to pop open...... Think I may need new bra....... Not sure. See how I go...... Maybe it bit of swelling........
At least it's scarf weather...... A good thing xxxx

I Was the same bizzy I left with tramadol, ibrufen, paracetamol and 7 days course of antibiotics.   I still have the tramodol and paracetomol left,.I'm not sure when to stop the ibrufen..  

Good luck for tomorrow, defo have your hair done :)) xx

Hey girls!

WELL........I went for my first run today  my surgeon said 4 weeks and its 5 weeks tomorrow. I wasn't silly though - I wore 2 sports bra's (I only need 1 for work now) and went with a girlfriend who is not a runner at all but is trying to get into it. I knew this would force me to take it easy which it did. We did 5 miles, it took an hour and 10 (my friend is still at the walk/jog stage) and it was great!!! My boobs didn't hurt, I barely got out of breath really going slow for my friend but it was nice to ease myself back into it!!!! I feel fab for it too - we're going again Weds.

Bizzy good luck tomorrow honey, let us know how you get on. xxx

Sassy I'm sooooooo jealous.   I Can't wait to get out doing exercise. .xx

It did feel unbelievably good! I'm quite lucky, my surgeon said at initial consultation 3 weeks I could go back to the gym - then after surgery he said. The nurse said 6. So I decided to pick and choose which bits I wanted to follow lol. I went back to the gym after 2.5 weeks but literally just sitting on a bike for an hour reading a book, nothing heavy at all. At 3 weeks I upgraded to bike and uphill brisk walk, then last week I started back on the wave machine too (no arms).

I'm so glad I went with my friend today though, it felt too easy - I know if I'd have gone alone I would've just gone straight back into my normal pace, I want to at least wait until I've seen my surgeon at the end of the month before I do that. But I am back to exercising every day now, not going crazy or anything though. It just feels good to know I CAN - I thought after a 4 week brake from running today would kill me but going with my non runner friend forced me to take it easy. FAB! Hopefully when I see my surgeon on 30th it'll be business as usual and I can get back to diving too, missed that like CRAZY.

Am quite cited now, my OH gonna come with me and we're gunna make a day of it in London - get a wowcher and have a slap up meal and go shopping.  I need bikini's and sexy underwear! Although I'll be purchasing cheapy underwear for now.....Primark all the way LOL. Not gonna spend any REAL money on underwear until 6 months, not worth it.

Sorry your first day back was a bit of a chore Bex, I've been back 2 weeks now and feel I've never been away. Got the joy of nights this week URGH  Stop the ibuprofen when you're ready hon - I was still taking paracetamol in week 3 xxx

Well done sassy, I'm having withdrawal symptoms.......can't wait to get back into it..... Really miss my running....... Be back to it for Christmas. 
Will keep you posted tomorrow.

Bex, having my hair done will make me feel better. They only gave me enough tabs for week so maybe they top me up tomorrow.... Not sure....

They will if you still feel you need the good stuff babe xxx

Posted earlier but doesn't seem to have saved!

Bexx great news hope the D is more comfy. I went back to work after a week and found I was feeling sore and swollen by end of the day got back into it pretty quickly tho so hopefully you'll be feeling better with it soon.

Sassy great news on the run. Wish I could like exercise like that!! Bet you can't wait to get some pretty bras.  Primark do really nice ones these days.

Jen do you have bikini top you could use for avi?

I've given in and ordered a shock absorber in an E I am down to one comfy bra at the moment. Hopefully this will be ok.

Boobies been really tingling today where I've felt cold. Anyone else's go like that?

OMG my nips KILL when cold - but they've been so sensitive since BA. Rest of boobies ok though, the odd shooting pain which I can only describe like 'growing pains' I got when I was a kid.  I occasionally get pain at the drain sites too.

Bloody hell lol I've missed loads! 
Bex you can get measured after the 6 week mark normally after you have been given the go ahead from your surgeon ... Right I need to turn the page and read the rest lol! Xx

Bizzy I always said that the worst part of my recovery was the back ache! I had it for about 2.5 weeks :( part of it again was the areola pain so I was always hunching! 

Sorry to hear your back at work Bex :( try and take it slow! 

Yay sassy that's great news! Esp that you eased yourself into it! Wow the diving is starting again! That sounds like a really good idea for your planned day to London! I might do similar lol... 

Kel I don't!! My old bikini is way too tight and my sisters bikini top although the cup fits she's only a 30 back so can't do it up lool! I'm going to have to take my next avi in a changing room I feel!! 

I'm just a little worried about the fitting, my areolas are still so sensitive and I'm glad to be seeing the nurse next weds... At this rate although they are not perfect (didn't expect them to be) they are still 100% times better than before so I think I will just wait until next time around hopefully after children where I may need a lift anyway!! 

I just love stroking them lool! Shower is fine too and so far no rippling xx

Jen when I was in La Senza the other day I noticed they sold gel nip covers would they help you to be more comfy?????

You girls talking about bikini tops got my digging one of my old ones out and trying it on, the cups (none wired) were far to small but because my cleavage is still quite wide I didnt like it.   I've got a naturally wide cleavage so knew that would stay so will try it on again next week (4 week mark) so hopefully they would have started to move in closer. .  

Kel I hope the E is more comfortable for you.  I'm still waiting for my D to come. . 

The gel nip covers so good. .

When I get cold it feels like both my boobs tense up, it actually freaks me out abit to be honest. .

Right back at work, only work 2 days so today is my Friday - wooohooooo

hope you all have good days

xxxx

Bexx glad its not just me it's a really weird sensation isn't it. Lovely when you can say Tuesday is your Friday isn't it?! I work three days which is plenty enough for me. Today is operation tidy my house is horrid my kids are soooo messy!! Sometimes I look at it and think how do I live in a house like this!!

I am so pleased with my scars they are looking so good for 3 weekd. Have been massaging twice a day with bio oil. How often are you ladies massaging?

Kel- il have a look at them thank you but to be honest even the cotton pads made then feel so sore! They see much better now in my Macom but I'm thinking with the tightness of a real bra might make them feel uncomfortable! I will give it a go though :) that's if I get given the go ahead lol 

Bex mine are still wide too, I'm wanting then to come together now and starting to feel impatient with them lol! 

I havnt been massaging yet kel, I was told not to put anything near to my incisions until I get the go ahead so maybe on Wednesday I will be told I'm allowed to! Xx

Isn't it funny how we all get told different things.  I was told to massage at week 2!!  Also said if I wanted to wear a bra for a night out that would be ok and to go into proper bras when I felt comfortable......strange!!!

Don't know that I'd feel comfy in real bra just yet but at least if I'm having a night out I know that I can wear one if I want to.  Not that I get very many nights out lol!!!

Hope your D comes soon Bexx ordered mine at the weekend so hope I don't have to wait too long.

I know!! So many different ways of doing things! I'm looking forward to massaging mine! I love looking at them! They are just so cute haha!! :)

September was a good month! We all had a great BA day and are feeling happy with our additions! To think it's already mid October... Xx

Hi girls, my god, I've missed loads. Hope you are all well.

I've got my appointment for stitches out of eyes and boobie check.......at 12.15. So looking forward to that. Going for lunch, cellebrate.... Hahaha. Going to face the world, this week seen about 5 people...... So be nice to get out there.

Woken up today stif neck and backache......... I know I keep on but this sleeping. Blooming nightmare. My back is in bits. I'm putting heat on it too, which is real good. But in the night it's awful.....

I may also go and get some nip covers, very sensitive......... So going to buy some today...... Treat myself!!!!!

That's it for now, sorry very brief but I'm going to get rid of these stitches....... WAHOO!!!!!

Have a good day all!!!

yay good luck Bizzy x

Yay good luck! they should be out now :D That's exciting!!

Noticed today that my scars had gone sort of a purple colour but today on my left one right in the middle there is a really light bit as if its started to heal lol?! Its so strange!?
xx

Well I went to leave for hospital and got card out my appointment was yesterday. Had to ring and apologise and they have got me in today at  2.45...... 
I was convinced..... I hate missing appointments....... So annoyed at myself.
