Got my admission time for Tuesday YAY! Started by: Anonymous

You go down 2/3 hours after your admission time xx

Mines 8;30am!!!!! xxxx

This is so surreal!!! xxx

It’s so nice there and they really look after you . The nurse I had looking after me was called immana dyer she was amazing . You will be very impressed x

Hi Zoe,
I had my op yesterday and I felt exactly the same as you’re feeling now pre op – scared about going under etc… Everyone will tell you not to worry about it (because there is no need to), but it’s only natural to be nervous/worried! I think the worst bit is after you’ve seen the aneathasist/surgeon and your waiting to go down (in your very sexy socks), but honestly it all happens so quickly after that… next thing you know you’re waking up and being told all has gone well and you’re on your way back to the room :)!

What are you havng done hun? I have 385 in my right and 415 in my left, round natrelle overs and if it’s any constellation.. I’m surprised at what little pain I’m in (after reading a few of the ladies complaints on here recently – but everyone reacts differently!) – I think I was pretty worried about how I’d feel after to be honest.

Excited for you 🙂 xx

Hiya Zoe,
Yeah – I am totally same! I have a HUGE fear of needles – I’m a massize wuss (you should of seen me have my pre op… I had to get one nurse to talk to me to distract me whilst the other did the blood test…), so unlike me as I too have sat through a 3 hour tattoo sesh and yet… turn into a big girl when anyone walks near me with an injection!! I have had about 6 ops in total (not cosmetic) and I absolutely hate hospitals… (I mean.. who does like them!? just the smell is horrid!!)… but the waiting is most definitely the worst bit… lying in your hospital bed… you can’t help but be nervous. However… the collection/walk to theatre/being put under literally happens in 5 mins. They don’t mess around. They have someone asking you questions whilst the aneathasist puts the initial first dose of anaesthetic in (which makes you feel drunk) and I promise, you don’t feel that bit – after that… they give you an oxgygen mask give you another shot and… off you go! I woke up and the nurse was lovely… let me have a look and then I went back to my room and dosed all afternoon :)! I was also really worried about having the drains taken out (not sure if you’ll have these? Dr Schiavone uses them on everyone) but… literally.. you don’t even feel them come out!

They have given me my antibiotics and co-codamol… I haven’t tounched the co-codamol, I had two painkillers last night and then another two this morning at 7 along with my first dose of antibiotics and I’ve not had anything else since and I feel feel. I’ve not suffered sickness from the antibiotics and Ive not suffered from a bloated stomach… so I generally think it depends on you as a person! I think the co-codamol they give you can cause bloating… and some people say the saline they give you during the ops makes you bloated… but like I said – I’ve managed to get away with it 🙂 xx

Hi Zoe
I had my op on Tuesday and I had the drains too and trust me they wasn’t an issue at all for me and I’m a big baby when it comes to pain, not that I knew that though lol. Anyway you will be fine even though I’ve had pain it seems I’m in the minority so if you can sit through 4 hours of tattoos I’d say you’ll sail through this. Happy new boobie day for Tuesday xx

No, I’ve not been out of the house ANC I don’t plan to :). My hair already looks like shite and I’m only a day post op :)! I had to get my bf to brush it and put it up for me today… So you can imagine what it looks like! Pah – bless him, he did try his best!

I’m excited for you – let me know how you get on!! Look forward to having you in the boobie crew! Xx

I am actually in love with my boobs… I keep looking at them and I can’t quite believe they’re mine :)! I love the shape – I had rounds and they look so lovely and full :)! I can’t wait to see what they look like when they drop and settle down! I’m so pleased that I decided not to tell Dr Schiavone to go with the biggest size… He actually went for 385 on one and 415 in the other, which I think are going to be the perfect size once the swelling gone down. I can feel one but the one with 415 in is a little numb. They’re not as hard as what I’d thought they’d be – quite soft!
I’ve took pre and post pics yesterday and took 2 more today which I want to upload but I can’t get them on here at the mo, which is annoying! So pleased that you’re feeling better today! I’ve got all next week off and which I’m pleased about – then my 1 weeks check up on Fri. Had a call from the nurse today too, just checking up on how my op went and how I felt, which I thought was too. I was pretty lucky too as ally nurses at Droitwich were lovely! Xx

I only was told that my implants were the natrelle responsive ones, what can u have other than the round and teardrop?, I know I didn’t have the teardrop.
Can you remember your nurses names, I had Mary who was lovely and Mandy who was, well I can’t say she was nasty but more shall we say nonchalant.
Mine are quite hardish to touch and I’ve got a different sports bra on too while my Macon washes and must say I have a nice round look at the top,lol. Can’t wait to put the Macon back on though because this ones not that comfy.
I’ve just had a call of my PC just wanting to know how I am, I bet we have the same PC don’t we xx

Jackie my PC is Wanda, are you at the Birmingham one?
Looking forward to seeing your pictures, I will put some up to xx

i have mine on Tuesday too at 11.00 soo excited, i live about an hour away from the hospital can anyone give any advice as to whether i should stop in a hotel over night or do you think i would be ok to travel home. x
