One Week Post Op

I had my post op appointment yesterday and everything went smoothly. I was originally suppose to have it tomorrow but for some reason I was in a lot of pain yesterday. I noticed looping of my stitches and I had a burning pain on the side of my left boob and towards the incision. I did not have any pain like that before so I went ahead and called my doctor to see if I could come in earlier. The nurse cut the end of the stitches (the rest dissolve) and told me that she experienced the same thing when she had her breasts done. Her explanation for the burning pain was the nerves are not use to being stretched and the pain was it's way of getting use to the implant. They told me everything looked great and I am healing perfectly. The also showed me how I can gently massage them now, which actually helped with the pain.

Like I said before I was never in any excruciating pain. I had a few ups and downs along the way but I would not change it for the world. I read a lot about people feeling depressed after their surgery and not liking their boobs. I have been ecstatic about my decision and loving my new girls since day one. I am VERY happy with the way they look and feel. They are already starting to drop which is amazing. I just can't wait until they fully drop and I can become active again.

TIP: I found that it was easier to sleep if I kept the bandage wrapped around my chest for the first few nights. You are able to take it off 24 hours after surgery but I found myself continually putting it back on.
