June Buddies!

Hi all
Glad everyone surgery has gone well, you all sound pleased so thats reassuring. I am in in the morning but think i will pop to asda for a biigger bra. Currently bought same back size 34 and dd, but hope to have 460 cc onvers ( currently 34 b ) .Does anyone know if i will need A bigger size.

Good luck recovery will post tues let you know how it went.

hiya zoe i would go for a bigger band like a 36 instead of a 34 because of the swelling,
mine are hurting me so i got some adjusters,
boobie mine are all shiney also, im not going to get them wet either just a shallow bath,
im going to ask hubby to wash my hair over the bath tommorow im dreading that,

Hi Bumblelady just wondered how ur feeling emotional i'm feeling really low and wondered if this is normal after surgery.

that should of said emotionally

I hear its absolutely normal hun, its due to the GA messes with your hormones. Try and drink as much water as possible to flush it out. Plus being immobile and stiff is bound to get you down, have a nice towel bath to refresh yourself and do something you like doing to cheer yourself up. Hope you feel better soon honey

i no what you mean about emotional, i hate not being able to anything, i have 4 kids here and cant even give them a cuddle or make them a drink,
i am feeling very selfish and a burdon to people,
i just want this pain to go and get the movement back in my arms so i can do stuff,
i am going to try and get the kids to bed early have a shallow bath and chill for a bit,
im very scared about taking my bra off in case they fall off, anyone else have this feeling?, and im totally dependent on my co-codamol,

I've been quite active made dinner yesterday and today i'm hopin that by keeping mobile it will keep the blood circulating and heal me quicker lol

bumblelady wrote "im very scared about taking my bra off in case they fall off, anyone else have this feeling"?,

I felt like that too but took it off to change it to the 36E because the 34F felt tight.
Gonna have a shallow bath too and try and wash my hair feel really yucky

Thanks Boobie prize as well gonna do what u suggest and try and chill and drink some more water flush my system.

hi MissT, welcome to the June Buddy part of the Forum!!
I went with MyBreast too and so did BoobiePrize, who was your surgeon?
chelsea_giel, with you on the feeling down! I reckon eating well and drinking lots of water is the way to go, I am still feeling a bit tired even between painkillers with the anaesthetic. i also find a good sleep really lifts my mood.

And to the above two and all the rest of you, how are you all feeling today? How are those fantastic boobies looking?

i had a lovely soak in the bath last night which helped, hubby had to bath me though soooo embarressing,
im still struggling to find a bra that fit, they either to tight on waist band or to lose around the boob,
none of them seem to really support me very well,
i cant wait to have the plasters off and see what the scars are like, i tried putting a mirror underneath and they look purple at the sides most of it hidden though,
complete challenge getting 3 kids up for school today washed and dressed,

On day 4 and left at home with my 2 kids feel totally alone and unsupported by my partner

So worried about going out so gonna stay in instead wondering how long it takes to feel ok?

Oh no! Are you ok? Rest and no stress is what you need babe

Kayla, thank you...I went with Nilesh Sojitra at Highgate hospital.

On day 4 and am feeling slightly better

Got my confirmation letter today ... 16th of June 12.00 at Manchester Lifestyle Hospital, im sooo nervous.

What is everyones opionions on arnica, i took it the first time around and still bruised horrendously, my friend did not take it at all and she hardly bruised. I have just spoken to the nurse and she said it is entirely up to me wether i take it or not ???

Congrats on booking Leigh! I didn't take arnica but then I don't really bruise. I'd say if it didn't work for you the first time it probably won't work this time round. Its not proven to help but it doesn't do any damage either.

Thanks MissT wish i could get some rest and no stress but it impossible with my two kids feel shattered and haven't done hardly anything today don't feel too bad but quite sore underneath the boobs hoping it will settle down after i take some pain killers only been taking paracemol and diclofenic but might take the co-dryadmol later it makes me feel sick but helps the pain. How are u feeling?

Aw you poor thing! At a time like this you just want peace and quiet...I have to say I do admire you though having to go through this and look after children. All the women in fact that have to go through it...takes a lot.
Time will fly by sooner then you think huni

Im alot better today thanks, incisions are hurting, tightness has subdued a little so on the right track me thinks :)

Hope you get some well deserved rest

i still have loads of tightness, and still waking in the night in pain, i would love to go through the night without the need for painkillers,
incisions are hurting to,

Hi girls,

not long till my date. Nervous but hoping that will surpass. I've seen a few girlies had there surgery early june, how are you feeling???

I'm going through Transform, can't wait.

Hope you are healing well, xxx :wavey: :wavey: :wavey:

Hi from another newbie
this is my first ever post on a forum. Please bear with me. I am Pre-BA. 32b, 380cc ;-/, 5'6", size 8/10, 37 years. What size that may take me to? Have a date 17th June.

HI Ellie38! Welcome to our bit of the forum, 17th June is just around the corner, are you excited? Are you having unders or overs?
Well done on the first post too, when you have over 30 posts I think you can the sk to see pics of the other girls on here, and that may help you to see what size 380 would take you to. In the meantime, there is a great site - Breast Implant Info by Nicole, on there at the top of the page there is a link to click for photos, you then select dearchable database from either the surgeons photos or patients photos and you can put a size range in, I know I found the site and info very useful.

I was a bit uncomfortable yesterday evening as I'd forgotten to take my 4.00pm painkillers - only remembering at 9 and because I'd recently eaten they took ages to work. I felt sooo engorged and my nipples felt like they could explode!! It was that feeling you get wehn the baby has had a growth spurt when bfeeding and then slows down the rate again and your boobs look and feel like tingly watermelons!! The painkillers finally must have worked by 11 as I don't remember much after that!!

I do have to say for any of you in pain, the tramadol works wonders, does knock you out but otherwise it just seems to stop the pain totally. Might be worth seeing your GP or asking your ps for a prescription, bumblelady and chelsea-girl?

All that said though, I am still LOVING my new friends!! How are all you post-oppers feeling about yours? I still can't beleive looking at pre-op pics how bad they were!!

xx

i may ask about kayla, i want it just to take the pain away not make me drousy cause all i then do is sleep and wake up half hour later with the pain again, im using co-codamol,

im trying not to get boob gread already, i look at them sometimes and think maybe i could of gone a bit bigger, but the surgion wouldent let me,
i want them to settle down no swelling and fluff,

Hi Fellow June-ers,

I am on 15th having 260cc unders - cant believe its a week today
