I actually lied, its 4 more sleeps haha. xThanks JO. x
Shazzy! It will come round before you know it! Make sure you’ve got 2 bags of frozen peas at home waiting for your return. They’re a godsend to pop on your boobs when their swollen and a bit sore. I’ve stuck with the painkillers the hospital gave me but know some people take Nurofen. x
Nurofen (aka ibruprohen) is not recommended, thins the blood and reduce the healing of the scars and settling of the implants..
Don’t worry about painkillers they will give u all that when u leave.
Just make sure you have comfy button up or zip up tops to make it’s easier to put on clothes.. And uggs so you can slip them on easily..
Get some senokot cos the antibiotics and painkillers make you constipated and bloated..
And maybe some sleeping tablets for the first couple nights to help you sleep.
Oh and baby wipes to clean yourself since you cant have showers/baths for the first few days..
And a book or something to entertain you..
I took a packet of soothers as someone recommended that to me and I was glad I had! Also a couple of magazines or a book! And your camera, I couldn’t sit up at first and could only see them looking down so my husband took front picture so u could see them properly ha ha! Good luck xx
The hospital diagnoses Ibuprofen – it doesn’t thin the blood.
Thanks ladies, some great info their to remember. Think i may need the sore throat sweets b4 the BIG day. cos feel like im coming down with one. fingers crossed i aint. xx
Take lip balm too…My lips were really dry in hospital, plus they cut my lip when they were removing the tube so lip balm helped xx
Ive been given iburofen by the hosp sot mustnt do any harm!
Goob luck shazzy hun sure ul be fine xxxx
