5ft4, 32a, 275cc Unders. What should I because expecting? Started by: Anonymous

Hi Polly, I had 275 unders and was a 32AA and am 5”4. I’m 12 days post op now and feeling so much better. Day 1&2 were the worst but after day 5 I really started to feel myself again so don’t worry it will get better. I think I stopped taking my pain killers around day 4/5.

I’m not enjoying sleeping upright either but my nurse said to do it for 4-6 weeks, she said eventually my body will just fall down the bed naturally but she said if I did it too soon I would be in pain and could affect the implants settling into their pockets properly.

I’m not sure what size I am now, but I’ll let you know once I get measured after 6 weeks, attached is picture I took after 10 days, you might feel huge due to the swelling but it should calm down in a few days.

My nurse said drop and fluff is real, I’m not sure if it’s just a mya term but you will notice over the next few days they won’t look as high up and won’t be sitting in your armpits as much, I think it takes quite a while before they’re all the way settled so we just have to be patient 🙂 xx

Trust me they did not look like this on day 1, I’ve taken pictures everyday so that I can remind myself how much they change as every other day I go into a panic that I hate them and the next day I love them again lol. Don’t worry after a couple of days you will start to feel much better, I think on day 4 I was getting a bit fed up of the pain but day 5 was a big turning point.

I got a 32DD white sports bra from m&s for after surgery and it fits really well, I’m still wearing the same size and it’s not gone loose yet and most of my swelling is gone, it might be worth you getting a 32 just in case? I was told to get the same back size as before my op. Or you could wait and ask your nurse what she thinks at your first check up. The M&S ones seem to be all sold out in the popular sizes at the moment 🙁

Oh brilliant! That might’ve been why you were hurting so much! I had quite a big gap which is still there but it doesn’t look so bad.

My right one is different to my left as well, apparently it’s because I’m right handed so the muscle is a little tighter and that one will take longer to settle. I’m sure they will be fine in the end. Defo take pictures though they make me feel so much better when you can compare how much they’ve changed.

Yea I think they said the general anaesthetic can make you constipated and then the codine does as well it it slows down your bowels lol, I ate some bran flakes and that soon sorted me out haha xx

Emily, they look amazing, I bet your really pleased. I’m having 250 unders hp on 9th January, I’m 32b ATM, what size have you come up as?
