    hey dont know if anyone knows if this is normal, i had my op on friday so now 6 days post op and the pain hasnt realy been that bad since i have had it done but its gradualy been getting worse with today being worse and the tightness also being the worse its been even giving me backache as i am soo scrunched up. I thought it should be getting better not continuing to get worse? I also have one a whole cup size bigger than the other (i’m hoping due to swelling).
    Is this all normal? as i know most girls are improving by now?

    Is it noticeably bigger to look at?

    I suffered from a haematoma 2 hours after surgery in my left breast, it was so high up my neck, very painful and extremely swollen compared to the right.

    yeh it is bigger to look at has been as soon as i had surgery and still is even when i weat clothes u can tell which is worrying. The pain isnt that bad but it has been gettjng worse and is very sore to touch compared to tge other. I do havr my strappinh off tomorrow so i guess u will see then, do you think it could be that? should i call the nurse?

    I’m sure it’s totally fine and nothing to worry about Hun. Unless it’s causing you a lot of pain then wait until tomorrow and the nurse will advise you on what’s best.

    Hi chealsa…that usually happens due to the strapping and maybe the swelling is causing more of a tightness type feeling and I think it could be normal for one breasts swelling to go down before the other ones but put ice packs to help that. See what happens after your strapping comes off because I too felt mines looked smaller than what I asked when I had strapping on but when strapping came off I was really happy…hopefully you will be too once strapping comes off :). Hope you feel better. At day 5/6 I got really frustrated with strapping it was giving me this really hot feeling but as soon as they came off I felt better.

    hey Zena yeh but mine was bigger as soon as i came out of my op and i have been using ice more so on the bigger one to see if it was swelling. I just hope wheb all the swelling goes dowb they wont be too small as i am wearing a 34c at the mo (which is slighlty baggy) so reckon i will go down to 34b/32c when i wanted dd and the small one is realy smaller than i wanter or expected. Think i am just realy havibg a down day abouy it all i just hope tomorrow like you said i will feel alot better about it all 🙂

    I’m 2days post. My left was throbbing this morning, right one was fine. Looked in the mirror and the left was higher or swelling. I’ve kept moving my left arm today hoping it will help. Glad to read I’m not the only one. See the nurse on Tuesday. It does get worrying though.

    yeh i could feel my left as soon as i came out hurtibg more abd i wouldnt say mine is higher but is definatly bigger like at the side and bottom and sticks out more. When i wear my clothes u can see it must be a cup size difference which makes it more worrying, but to be honest for me it seems my small one is too small but i know that wont get bigger.

    Ahh I see…Hope it goes well for you once strapping comes off. Hope it’s what you wanted because maybe strapping is squishing them down. Mine looked small with strapping on and when they came off I was a happy bunny. Hope it’s the same for you and keep us posted Hun 🙂

    hey girls,
    So had my strapping off (almost passed out) and they do look realy good and natural still only c cup though with swelling. I am happy but not at the same time as they do look good just not as big as i was expecting and i think the fact my bras where soo padded in the first place doesnt help
    I will try anf post photos tomorrow 🙂 so you cab let me know your thoughts 🙂

    Hi Chelsea….lol Awh haha gosh when they take the edges off that’s the worst part! Awh sorry you’re not as happy as you wanted. I’ve heard that sometimes the boobs drop and fluff out a bit as the weeks go on so this isn’t you’re final result so you never know. Maybe so Awh that’s what I was comparing mine to as well but I only wanted to be a full C and that’s where I am and potentially a small D. Wait a few weeks and see what happens to them apparently they change lots. Haven’t got you on my friends list but I’ll add and check them out :).

    yeh i think wait until 6 week cause looking at all the other girls pics they change so much over time, i am happy with them they do look realy good just a smaller size than I was hoping. Although my bf saw them for the first time today and he thinks they are pretty big and was pleased lol i’ve accepted u so let me know what u think 🙂
    I could just be being realy greedy lol

    Defo Hun wait 6 weeks and see what wonders happen to them 🙂 …aww did he well he’s righttt I think they look pretty big and such a good size and look for your frame! Seriously missy you got nothing to worry about but totally understand you probably expected bigger and I sometimes thought at the beginning if they’re smaller than what I wanted but sometimes my sports bra feels so tight so I think they are dropping and fluffing out. I’m 3 weeks post op so just waiting to see what happens and you should wait too Hun you might be surprised. They look big to me and perfect for your frame! In clothes they might look smaller like mine in clothes and other ladies said theirs do too but when I have my bra off they look big and in proportion to my frame but seen to be getting bigger…so analyse them over next few weeks 🙂

    Awh trust me I am too! I can be such a worry wart sometimes so I feel your pain 😉 . That’s a good idea…I’ve been doing that privately just to see how they change and it’s interesting. Lol I know me too…I have definitely seen them drop into a more natural but apparently unders go smaller at week 6-8 and then fluff out again into their actual size. Pain wise I think I’m good thankfully. Might get a random one here and there which lasts a second but it’s soar more than anything. Ahh poor you yea Hun after my strapping came off I did feel bit more soar but that’s normal don’t worry…you taking pain killers to numb it?
