    Hey girls

    I am day 2 post op and my boobs look totally different to each other. I know this is normal to some degree during healing but they are TOTALLY different. Right one is full and pointed and big, left one droopy, flat and saggy, looks about 1-2 sizes smaller than right.

    Has anyone experienced this and did it resolve?

    Hey! I’ve not had mine yet, but I was told things like boob gap and the way your nipples face will never change. Did you have a big difference between them before? If not, I’d ask to see a nurse. I know they change loads, but will give you peace of mind if anything but also, if something is up (like if one is sitting wrong) they know ASAP. Let me know how you get on! Xx

    Hey Lucy, yeh I will be ringing the nurse tomorrow again. This is my second BA ..had the old ones removed and these are 440cc under the muscle so I imagine when they drop the nipple will look higher up

    Hey hun, definitely ring the nurse and send her some pics to send to your surgeon. You just need some reassurances that it’s all normal. There is a difference in shape between them but this may well just sort itself out and take s bit of time while they both settle. They will change at different rates as u know from before – my left was always playing catch up with my right and now I’m still paranoid that it’s different from my right even though hubby says I’m mad ?
    Do let us know what the nurse/surgeon says. Xx

    Well my appointment to get my incisions seen to is on 25th, I will ring nurse again tomorrow and say about shape and size. But I did tell her on phone again this morning and she just said it’s normal etc. Do you honestly think it is or does it look too odd?

    It’s probably totally normal hun and just that they are settling at a different pace. Hold on till your appointment and see what they say. Xx
