Hiya girls
I had my op on Monday and although I felt like I’d read loads of posts on here about post op and info online, I was not nearly as prepared as I thought I was… Thought it would be useful if anyone who’d been through it shared their post op experience.
For me now (only on day 3), I feel like my boobs are really high and swollen to the size of the moon. I know it’s normal but you see girls post worrying about it in here. My incisions are starting to itch and sting too but because I don’t know what’s going on under the dressing, maybe I should be worried haha! I also heard day 3 was the worst for pain but I’m breezing through so far (touch wood!).
The worst thing for me has been relying on people to help me. Silly things like opening windows, filling the kettle, feeding the cat! Feel so helpless. I’ve read that some ladies get really down and upset. I’m not that bad at the mo but know how much medication can meddle with your mind.
Has anyone else had any experiences that they wouldn’t mind sharing so we know what to expect over the coming weeks?
Thanks chicks!xx
