Feeling really down :-( Started by: Anonymous

Heyy a few girls on here have said day 3/4 can be the worst for me it wasn’t as everyone is different, but it will get better soon I promise, the meds could be a bit strong for you again everyone is different, ring the nurse and ask what else you could take instead as they make you feel sick as for burning i’m not sure hun i’d speak to nurse about that aswell! Hope you feel better soon xx

i felt like i was havin panic attacks at one point ..i cudnt breath or hold a conversation for long i had to pull my bra out under my boobs to talk ..that feels ages away now haha yep get the first week done with n youll be great x x

I found day 3-4 were the worst hun you should start feeling more comfortable soon xx

oooh i didn’t have strapping on just plasters under the insicions i was terrified , i over done it tho thinkin i cud reach for things and washin my hair over the bath shavin my arm piits ect ..all the things that cud have waited a week for till i got the all clear of nurse i tried to do ..big mistake , one of my insicions opened slightly so was back to square one restin n bein careful …heeled nicely tho now which i was concerned about ..uploadin some new pics today x

i was allowed to shower she redressed me with water proof plaster things and gave me extra ones aswell … i had a shallow bath on day 4 aswell .. hubby was back at work so i thought id try n freshen up i got in it ok i left my bra on made sure i didn’t get my top half wet but i cudnt get out hahaha i struggled for a while it was funny now lookin back .. but i felt soo much better … just take it easy babe x x

You can do this, Zoe! Not long now!! Don’t forget, you get a free cookie by the end of the week for being such a brave girl 😀 haha!! Lots and lots of hugs from Liverpool!!xx

Joanna I whatsapp you now!! and if you girls are all stiff make sure you walk around the house try and get up just doing over do it. sitting down for ages can actually make you feel worse and make the pain worse you need to move about x x x

🙁 i hope you feel better soon! just think it will be worth it very soon! and im pretty sure i heard once that when you are on your period, your pain threshold is lower.? so just put ur feet up and try and sleep as much as possible. you heal quicker when asleep with anything 🙂 hope it gets easier for you hun xx

haha thank you, well this BA was by farrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr the worse experience iv ever had I thought I was dying I was going to ring up the hospital to take the implants out as I thought they were poisoning me LOL hated it, not something id want to go through again even tho i will , i do think back now and think you dick i was such a drama queen! rhino was fine I was out shopping after 1 week with my cast on didn’t care, but do take it easy its a lot easier as you can still move about etc, its the after math with swelling that’s hard its more emotionally difficult! but im fine now I love it x x

Haha yes! I got little nail scissors and just started chopping away.. I had a courtesy call from MYA so I double checked if I could snip as Rinaule advised. I needed my mums help really, i look like i’ve just come out of the jungle. Where i’m so bloated the strapping was literally suffocating me! xx

I feel your pain. I cant open any cupboards nor press the button to flush the loo. It’s so weird, is your strapping itchy? I think im just a generally paranoid person lol! My boobies are starting to hurt again – obviously wearing off >:-( x

”creative hole making” haha. No nurse didn’t ask me to put sports bra on, i was surprised but thinking about it, the strapping is enough support let alone the bra too!
Yeah i’ve twinged a few times thinking i’ve done some damage but it honestly gets better! I was too scared to lift the laptop 2 days ago. I do keep getting sharp pangs through my left boob but i’ve seen loads of girls say similiar things. Dont get me wrong i’m worried im doing way to much too soon, but i read it’s better then doing nothing x

So strange! I never thought of laxatives thats not a bad shout. But it says about not mixing? would that include laxatives? I’m so bloated. I literally have a pot belly!
Well i dont see why you would need a sports bra and strapping as they do the same thing? But I’m not the expert hun. Have you not had your courtesy call yet? Ask about it then..? I would be having a fit if i had a sports bra on top of this strapping! cant wait to see the new twins!
Hey Gail hope you dont mind the add, it’s good to read up on other peoples boobie journeys. xx

That’s fine Joanna I’ve accepted.
Laxatives will be fine with your meds or you can get pure prune juice but be careful with the prune juice if you drink it all you will be having a very good quick detox if you get my meaning lol and if you don’t drink it all you’ll just get cramps xx

Thanks Zoe, I’m 10 days post op now and every day I love them a little more, still can’t believe they’re mine lol xx
