    I’m sure it’s got extra tight for the last day, my ribs are killing me and I feel it’s hard to breathe 🙁
    Really had enough, cannot wait until tomorrow!!
    Sorry just a bit of a rant!

    Having the strapping off is bloody amazing. You will be amazed at what’s under there. I thought my boobs looked small in the strapping but now I don’t. Xx

    Oh how exciting! I hve had moments of wondering if they’re actually big enough but I recon they will be without strapping.
    This time tomorrow I’ll be without the horrible stuff.
    Do you feel in less pain without the strapping and more comfortable now your just in a sports bra?xx

    I’m only one day PO and I can’t stand it, it’s so tight and itchy and so hard to breathe 🙁 especially with my bra on top. Do I have to wear both or is it ok to take my bra off for a bit? And how long do I need to keep these socks on for?

    Yes, without the strapping you feel sooooo much better. It’s weird when you first get the strapping off, your chest Feels soooo tight.
    I wore both the bra and the strapping unless I was washing myself and I never wore the stockings as I made sure I got up and moved regularly as I felt it made me feel better. X

    Yeh I have been wearing my sports bra over the strapping. I was told to by my nurse so I am. I wasn’t to bothered by the strapping at first but now I’m itching to get it off. Mainly because I think it’s the strapping causing the pain now. My boobs are to numb to hurt and my incisions only hurt if I do certain things. It’s the strapping pulling on my back and ribs that hurt:(
    Roll on 12pm tomorrow!!
