Hello Ladies
I’m new to this forum. I had my BA surgery 3 days ago. I had 410 unders. I’m looking to add anyone who has had unders and can tell me a little bit of what I should expect in days/wks to come.
I have my 7 day check up on Friday and will post some pics, too scared to unleash them until then, don’t wanna disturb them 🙂
It seems most on this forum have had overs
Thanks
Claire 🙂
Hey iv had two set of unders 410 cui and 420 trx responsives, I’ll add you x
Any quieries or questions don’t hesitate to send me a inbox 🙂 x
Hi Claire! I’m having either 380s or 410s under in two weeks tomorrow hope you dont mind me adding you! X
JFM I’ve accepted you 🙂
I don’t know if you’ve found on here most people are overs, so it’s hard to gage what healing difference we have being unders, what to expect etc.
I know it’s more painful being under’s, as I’m experiencing these last 3 days.
Day 3 feeling a bit more comfortable. If anything my back is hurting more than my chest today, as think where I’ve been tensed up I’ve caused my back to cease up, hot water bottle and v pillow are my saviour xx
@jfm I’ve accepted..
@claire , well today I’m 6 days post op.. I had a re op on Monday and both were re done.. I didn’t expect it to be as bad as the first time :/ how wrong have I been lol.. Although I haven’t had the tightness my incisions are agony as my surgeon went through the exact same place.. Today has been my best day, I’m still walking hunched up tho cos it hurts too much to stand up straight.. Unders is a much harder, painful recovery compared to overs.. My check isn’t until Thursday so il be 10’days post op when I see the nurse for my dressing of.. I can’t wait.. Do u have any kind of strapping on or just a bra? I hope you continue to feel better.. Xx
My back is killing me. That’s where I’m suffering the most today 🙁
The dull ache on my chest is bearable, but the whole nipple stings and shooting pains have literally been taking my breath away, even though he went in from underneath so hasn’t touched my nipples. All very random.
I’ve got a band around the top and a Macon over the top. Haven’t touched either since put on in the hospital, too scared ill do something to interrupt the healing process.
@jfm make sure you get yourself a macom bra, it’s been my saviour, so comfy, expensive for one bra but worth it when u’ve spent all this money on implants xx
All the shooting pains are nerves trying to reconnect themselves.. I had a breast band and macom bra on the last time but not this time and defo the macom is the best thing you can buy.. I used to take my band and macom off once a day for 5 mins to let them breathe.. Take care x x
Could I add J please x
Thanks for the add sophiemarie 🙂
I may venture for a little breather this evening, scared they drop out. Lol x
Claire it will almost certainly feel like it but don’t worry they won’t go no where lol x
I just released them…Mahoooosive. Lol
Very swollen, bit scary. Lol xx
Yeah!!! Did ya take a pic? Xx
I’m trying to upload it, it’s saying pic size is too big, lol, hope it not my boobs looking too big that it’s rejecting. Lol x
Hi Claire im looking at getting 410 unders too, am i ok to add you and follow your progress so i know what i have in store please 🙂 x
Hi Gem
No probs at all, ive added you 🙂
Ive posted some pics this evening.
Im still very swollen and bruised, so no real shape or definition atm. xx
Fab thank you, they look like there coming on great 🙂 You must be pleased, hows the pain? X
Hi can I add I all plz girls. Haha! 415 is what I’ve been offered before I my surgeon left!!! X
Gem the pain the first two days was awful, not going to lie, was taking my breath away.
Now day 4 it’s better but I’m suffering with my back, no matter how straight I try and sit I’m obviously hunching over to combat the pain.
My nipples are the worst, the piercing shooting pain through them where my nerves are re-attaching is the worst.
Hoping to go for a little walk today, getting caged animal syndrome sat inside. Lol x
Oh no! Hope they start to get easier for you soon, gotta admit im not looking forward to the pain, but no pain no gain i suppose lol, and im like that always on the go so dont know how il be confined in the house all day! Hopefully the fresh air might do you a bit of good and maybe help you have a better sleep tonight 🙂 xx
Hi claire how are you getting on? Iv just been to meet mr Traynor and ordered my 410s was hoping he would say i could have overs but no such luck lol! Unders it is, Pre op on Tuesday then on a countdown till the 18th feb cant come quick enough lol x
Yeah hun, id asked because i had a consultation with someone else earlier in the year, and they had told me so id guessed id need em, hopefully u will be having overs, not looking forward to the pain but will all be worth it in the end 🙂 x
Ye I’m guessing overs then he did say iv already got breast there so must be, il ring my pc in the morning to double check! X
Hi girls! Do you mind if I add you? I am having unders on Monday!! I am currently a 34A and have ordered both 380 and 410 as I haven’t decided yet! So nervous.. Is having unders really that much harder to recover than unders? I am booked in with dr mounir.. I told him I wanted them to look more natural so r advised to have unders! X
Is it that much harder to recover from unders than overs I was supposed to say there! Haha x
I think its always overs unless they tell you otherwise but your pc will know anyway 🙂
Apperently Jade its ment to be worse as its under the muscle, still not putting me off lol, and feel free to add im not due in till 18th feb you can let me know how you get on 🙂 xx
Hiya Girls
Im 9 days PO now. Feeling so much more comfortable.Worst time is first thing in morning, sitting up in bed, get a dull ache as I sit up. Gotta use stomach muscles to pull myself up.
I’m still resisting using my arms to push myself up out of bed and chairs as my main area of discomfort is the under my boobs and up to my arm pits, so dont wana put any further strain on there.
Get the odd shooting pain aswell, but id say over than that its more a case of my incisions healing.
Saw nurse for 7 day follow up, I’m now allowed to shower 🙂 she said where skin is healing on incisions it will feel like a pulling sensation.
Got my second Macom which is a god send.
@Gemma hope ur well hun. Exciting u got u op bkd. Mine are really coming on in shape, starting to look round and beautiful. Will put some pics up this wknd.
@Jade I will add u hun. But to be quite descriptive with unders they have to pull the muscle away from ur cavity wall and put the implant in, so healing is harder as all those muscle get disturbed and have to reattach. I didnt have s choice, it was what my surgeon could do with what I had. Plus my surgeon prefers under as their nicely secured under the muscle, less chance of flipping or rippling is what he said. I wad guided by the expert. xx
Yea that is understandable! I am only off work for 8 days so I am just worrying I think! I only sit at a desk at work though so shouldn’t be too much of a problem.. I bet yours are going to look amazing! I am not sure whether to have the 380 unders or 410! I want to just go for the 410cc as they are only slightly bigger but a part of me is worrying that the bigger the implant the more chance of rippling or a double crease! As I’m only a 34A x
Hi Girls,
I have my consultation with mr traynor on Thursday, so I have been doing research on what kind of size I would like to be etc. But I was just wondering really why you decide to go under or over the muscle. I know its more painful going under but that’s all, Hope you are all recovering well xxxx
I told my surgeon that I wanted them to look natural and he advised unders look a lot more natural! That is the only reason that I chose unders 🙂 x
Aww fab Claire made up for you 🙂 with the macom should i order my back size as iv seen some of the girls saying to go one higher for more room when there swollen? Want to get everything ready lol and is it the dearer one with the band? Xx
Hiya I had 420 and I’m 1 day post op and can hardly move does it get easier by day 3 hope you don’t mind the add xx
@Gemma, Hun get your normal bra size, so I was a 34B so just ordered the 34, it doesn’t ask for the cup size, as it’s a big expandable band which goes round you and fastens at the front.
My 34 (M) fits me perfect, pulls them in which it’s meant to do whilst their healing, supports them properly.
And don’t get the dear one now, as the band will rub on your incisions, get the cheaper one as it sits beneath ur incisions, that’s from the advice of Macom themselves. The more expensive one is for after 6wk PO if u wanted one then.
@Steph I said I wanted a natural look and not to look like stuck on beach balls, so unders is what I was advised to go with.
@Lyndsey Foster it does get easier, the first 3 days I struggled, day 5 onwards is more comfortable and now 9days I’ve got a slight uncomfortable underneath where my incisions r healing that all.
Xx
hi I had 385cc partials yesterday feel fine today just resting and watching telly 😉
