    I’m now 6 days post op and seeing the nurse at 7:30 tonight to have my dressing off and see how my scars are healing. They have been really itchy for the past few days so i’m hoping thats a good sign and they are doing well.
    Is there anything I should be asking about at my 1 week check??

    Itching is generally a sign of healing thats good news ^_^ Just ask about showering ect should you be keeping them covered whist showering still, how long to bathe ect ect x

    @happyme thanks hun! Hope it goes well! 🙂 x

    @lorna
    which clinic is yours at? I’m really freaked out apparently they take the strapping off and check you’re healing well etc I’ve seen girls with little tiny plasters after the strapping is off just over the incisions! I’m just excited to see them for the first time and to get this strapping off as its started to get itchy! X

    I had mine with a dif company hun. Didnt have any strapping just the plasters over the incisions and a chest band that ive had 2 wear without a sports bra (because I have well developed pec muscles apparently it will encourage them to relax). So im already used 2 seeing them, but hoping nthe scars aren’t too gross!
    I couldnt imagine having all that strapping on bet your busting to get it off!
