Hi everybody!

So my op was today and what a great experience! I arrived at 7.40am (10 mins late due to a delayed train) sat in the reception area and was called straight up. Changed straight away had bp, pregnancy test taken which was all good. Saw Mr.Marcellino who drew on me, took a picture and we decided either 400/425 in left boob and 450 for right side HP overs. He was very brief but I felt safe and he knew what I wanted. I am borderline uplift and he did say today that I needed one especially in my left side but I knew that before and I decided against it as I want the chance to breastfeed when I have another baby! I’m sure I’ll get a good cleavage with decent bras and high profile implants!

Then I walked down to theatre which is 2 mins away in the lift. Had a cannula put in and they asked me what my favourite alcoholic drink was then next thing I knew I was in recovery about 45 mins later (I think). I Felt good! I was hooked up to fluids which I think always helps you if you feel hydrated! Then I was wheeled back to my room and I transferred onto my bed. As I’m pain free it was hard not to use my arms but I just shuffled my bum. I had some water and a doze for an hour and they did my bp a few times and I’ve been up to the toilet, eaten, drank and I feel great! I’m really surprised and I am very happy with what I can see so far! I can definitely do things myself already and the nurses seem very happy with me. I’m just waiting for my mum to get here as she’s nipped to h&m to try and get me some zip up tops! Good luck to everybody having their op’s. Don’t be scared, your in great hands (I know easier said than done). I’m sure after I come down off the morphine etc I will feel the pain and the next stage of my journey starts now! I’ll try and answer questions, post pictures of my recovery so feel free to add me 🙂 Xxx
