    I had my post op check up yesterday & everything is great but I forgot to ask a few questions…..

    1) I’m 9 days po, should I be massaging my boobs now?
    2) should I be using bio oil now?
    3) I’m going to go back to the gym at the end of jan, the nurse said to act like I’d never been before…..does anyone have any kind of fitness plan they’ve followed like …week 1) xtrainer, bike & light arms, week 2) short jogs, xtrainer week 3) spin etc etc? I just don’t know how far to push it!

    Thanks ladies x

    you can use bio oil, just not on the incisions, massage them if you want, there’s nothing to say it helps or doesn’t, it’s down to the person, and gym listen to your body, I was back in three weeks post op, but nothing strenuous or hard (it’s not always about what you can do, but your heart rate when getting back to it), so only do what you’re capable and comfortable doing xx
