    Hi again , can any one give me any advice or tips on what they were allowed to do and not do in the days after there BA as I wasn’t really given much advice at all and finding it hard just sitting round but don’t want to do any damage either , feeling a bit clueless about it at moment so if anyone could pass on the advice or tips they were given I’d be really grateful xx

    just do light things ruth, i did and had walks to shop and that so i didnt get even more stiff than what i already was! just dont do any heavy lifting or try reaching things that are to high, dont put your hands over your head and you should be fine xx

    My op is on 17th girlies and I need to know this too! Like I sooo don’t want to do anything that will put back the healing time. How many nights do you actually have to sleep upright? And like how long until you can lift your arms over head? God that’s no shaving underarms for a week how gross 😐

    shave under your arms either day before your opp or the day of your opp i did and after a few day’s i could just about do them still didnt lift them over my head though! and sleeping upright depends on you it helps with swelling so as soon as you feel you can lay flat again go for it i’m just over a week post opp and still sleep a lil bit upright xx
