i literally cant get myself sat up in the morning and when i do (with mums help) im in soo much pain and its hard to breath
then when i cry its even worse coz u have to gasp for breath when u cry. aftrr a take a couple of painkillers its gets a bit better when i move around but when i sit still i just lock up again and cabt move ny shoulders or right arm. i know im only 3 days post op and its early days but i reqlly didnt think it would be this bad. do u think im just a slow heeler? x
aww babe im sure u will be fine we all heal differently i wish i cud make u feel like me lol ive just had a shower and my boobs are going a lil squidgy already loving ive just tried some clothes on and im 3 days po too
Dont worry hun, its because youve just invasive surgery and our bodies deal with it in different ways, im nearly 4 weeks post op and sleeping on my back but i still have discomfort in the mornings when pulling myself upright then it goes when i move around, and my chest was so tight at first i didnt dare sneeze laugh or anything lol! it will loosen up just takes a few days for your body to adjust xxx
Oh chic, u will get there,are u sleeping sat up as much as poss? Stacie I’m dying for a shower my nurse told me no showering until my wound has been checked and just to get a shallow bath so I’ve just been washing pits with a flannel I feel minging do u think if I got a quick shower I will be ok? Hope you heel fast charli xxx

Thankyou it’s true how they all do things different, I had my first ba 6 years ago and can’t remember if I could shower straight away I think I may just get a quick one think it will help me feel human again. I’ve added you chic xxx
Hi Charlipegger, feel really sorry for you hun, I was exactly the same when I had my first boob job. Are yours unders by any chance? My pain was horrific, and lasted weeks
Just keep taking the strongest pain killers and if you can something to help you sleep. The pains horrid but it will go eventually.
I’m having to have a second BA on the 18th as I’ve got PIP’s, my surgeons doing overs so I’m hoping it wont be a bad.
Really hope you feel better soon chick xxx
I felt quite a lot of pain / discomfort in the first week too! I wasn’t prepared for it at all because loads of people on here seem to have no pain at all. I always thought I had quite a high pain threshold as well because I’ve sailed through two child births with very little pain. Don’t worry it gets so much better at about 6/7 days PO, even though you feel like its never going to end in the first few days xx
thank you so much all of you
really glad im not the only one who has been in this much pain, just gotta keeep going
made me feel alot better about it. hopefully iv had the worst and it will get better from here on xx
