    How are you feeling now Stacey? Are things a bit more comfortable? Looking good? I’ve got my post op tomorrow.. I’m guessing they’ll take off my dressings and ? Redress if necessary and check I’m healing ok.
    I can’t believe we’re a week in already! My boobs seem less swollen but all the bruising coming out and I’m all yellow and green! My upper abdomen and ribs are very tender yesterday/today but I guess it’s just more healing! Xx

    Hi Laura Im feeling back to normal really apart from my right stitches sometimes pull when I stand and my ribs and under boobs and black and blue but not painful strangely im defo feeling more comfortable now I don’t mind the look off them but wouldn’t say I’m 100% happy with shape but I’m guessing we have loads off changing and healing to do and I m just being impatient it’s mad to think we have had our new boobs a week already it’s flying over ain’t it xxx

    Yeah definitely more comfortable and only 1 more week of sleeping propped up! That’s the worst!
    I looked at mine today and already they’re looking better, like you say, not perfect but we’ve weeks to go before they are.
    I keep poking them now they’ve got a bit of squish in them! I think I’m obsessed!
    Let me know what happens today? Fingers crossed everything’s as it should be xx

    I have my post op today as well & I can’t wait to get this bloody strapping off!

    I’ve managed to sleep like a baby every night! Are you guys also putting pillows under your lower back? I think this is why a lot of girlies struggle xx

    I have two pillows the a boltster across the bottom then my v pillow and a pillow under my back/bum. Last 2 nights I dug out a travel pillow for my neck and I’ve slept better but still only a few hours before I wake up aching! It’s ok I can cope another week! Xx

    I was quite happy to hve mine re-dressed stacey, as long as they are dressed my bras cannot irritate them is what i think. Im scared of irritation against the bra once they come off x

    They take your dressing off, clean your chest, put on some new bandages to cover the sitching under the breasts, that was all at mine x
