So glad you got the card Hun one less thing to worry about x I've got all my corespondence through just waiting for my card now and it does say on my paperwork about taking arnica if I want to so guess I will :) x

by sarahlou222 3rd February 2015, 10:39 pm

There you go!

The post where I live is so rubbish, the clinic told me they posted me a letter 1st class last Monday.. Haven't had any mail since. I live in a block of flats and apparently the postman doesn't always remember the bring the keys to get in.. It's a joke!

Mum sent me a birthday card in December, on the Monday, first class. My birthday was the Thursday. I got it the following monday.. Rant over lol xx

Ha hahahaha Ohhh dear very annoying

Sarahlou my credit card came yesterday and it's now all set up :) also got my v pillow (tested pillow last night and I must say very comfy) and arnica through in the post. I'm pretty much set to go now still a wait to go but I'm more happy knowing I'm fully prepared for the big day lol x I'm waiting on a delivery for two new shock absorber bras and after that I'm good to go lol x I've bought other sports bras high impact ones but on the day will take a few just incase I feel uncomfortable in one can change to another one x

by sarahlou222 6th February 2015, 12:06 pm

Yay! It's all coming together :) I was worried about buying too many bras and none of them fitting... although I couldn't help myself and have 6!! ooops!

I love my V pillow too, I sleep with it... ha!

I'm still waiting on the letter from the hospital, was sent 1st class 10 days ago.. don't think I've had any mail at all. Actually called Royal Mail yesterday and complained about it.

My info for the card is in the post.. then I have to agree before the card gets sent out.. so I do hope they hurry up, and royal mail actually deliver.
How long did your take from applying online to actually receiving the card? x

by Moocher90 6th February 2015, 12:21 pm

Well I applied on 28/01/15 x and got all the corespondence through all on different dates for the pin online banking etc and card came last which was yesterday x

by sarahlou222 6th February 2015, 12:31 pm

That was quite quick then, I'll keep my fingers crossed!

What are you most nervous about with the op? xx

by Moocher90 6th February 2015, 1:14 pm

The unknown really never had GA before.... Also what size I will be after the swelling has gone down and whether I will regret having 400cc instead of 450cc x u?

by sarahlou222 6th February 2015, 5:14 pm

I'm the same!! The GA is what scares me the most, I spoke to my neighbour who is studying medicine and he put me at ease about a couple of things though, your just having a nap :)

He said if after it's gone in I can count from 10 to 0 he'll give me a fiver haha.. Didn't realise

by sarahlou222 6th February 2015, 5:15 pm

It was that quick!

Sorry message sent without clicking anything lol.

I think 400cc is a lovely size!
What size are you now? X

by Moocher90 6th February 2015, 5:30 pm

I'm a flat 34b at the moment. Anything bigger and rounder then that is a bonus I guess x just want them to look perfect lol

by sarahlou222 6th February 2015, 5:56 pm

Your going to get a lovely size with 400!! My guess a DD/E! X

by Moocher90 6th February 2015, 6:05 pm

Lol Yh I guess just scared of being to big x

by sarahlou222 7th February 2015, 9:09 pm

I'm sure your surgeon understands your exectations and wouldn't let you go too big :) xx

by Moocher90 7th February 2015, 9:15 pm

Yh true I'm just being paranoid lol x think I'm thinking to much into it x

by sarahlou222 10th February 2015, 10:37 am

Everyone looks so different I've stopped looking at pictures too much. Once minute it's too small, one minute its too big and the next its perfect lol.. I trust the surgeon 100%! Before I went to a consultation I thought I would probably have 300-325 so to be told I can have 345 it's like Stars

I've started watching operations on YouTube!! - It's amazing, can't keep my eyes off the screen.

Are you going to get some Hibiscrub? Cookie says it's great for cutting the risk of infection, wash in it the night before and morning of! - I'll be using it for a week then lol :) xx

by Moocher90 10th February 2015, 10:43 am

lol Yh that's the problem can't compare really what they will look like until they are there! X and where can I buy the scrub from?! Xx defo worth buying if helps reduce infection x

by sarahlou222 10th February 2015, 10:54 am

Aww glad I made you aware :)

They sell it in boots: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Thanks hun x pretty much ready for the big day now :) not long for you to go now! Hopefully before I know it it will all be over with and will be recovering lol x

by sarahlou222 12th February 2015, 8:58 am

Heyyy, How are you?

Do you know how long you have been told to avoid a shower?

I've just realised that it's Mother's Day 12 days after my op, and I live 140 miles from my mum. It's only 2 roads, I under if I would be able to drive it sad smile

by Moocher90 12th February 2015, 9:03 am

Yh I'm good thank you?! Can't believe you have 19 days til your op bet your so excited x I'm jealous :( I thought it was a few weeks I suppose you go to post op app depends how they are healing if they are ok they prob advise to have a quick shower if not it will be strip washes until directed to. My paperwork says keep wounds dry for 5 days then shower afterwards no soaps etc and no baths x

by Moocher90 12th February 2015, 9:04 am

Also I'm sure by 12 days post op you will be able to drive. I know your having unders which is more invasive as I'm having overs and intend to be back driving a week later x

by sarahlou222 12th February 2015, 9:09 am

2 days is not long enough at all! - I'm sure I heard the surgeon actually say 1 week.. they need to update their paper work... rant over lol.

I'm soooo excited.. I can't believe it's down to days now.. I felt I was looking at month bit for ages lol. I've been told 2 weeks for driving and start with short journeys.. oh dear :( xx

by Moocher90 12th February 2015, 9:21 am

Ohhh bless x tell your mum she has to come to you and you will make her a lovely dinner lol x anyone else that can drive you? X

by sarahlou222 12th February 2015, 10:07 am

I live by myself - and I was the one who moved away so I don't even know a huge amount of people here yet.
I don't think my boy friend would appreciate coming to get me and drive me home lol.
She could come up but she's coming at the end of Feb, and it means my sister and nan having to come up too! lol just more problems created! X
