    So I’ve taken pics today, had my op Monday, had 450 hp overs, really sad looking at them as they’re doesn’t seem to any definition or roundness to them yet?! I don’t know if I’m being impatient? Does it look like I’ve still got lots of swelling and my shape is yet to appear as they drop and the swelling goes?? 🙁 really hoping so as I don’t like them at the minute…anybody got any pics where theirs are similar and look good once they’ve settled pleaasseee xx

    Hi lovely I would definitely say that you have a lot of swelling there and the shape will come through once this settles. Your surgery is still so fresh and your boobies have been through a lot! Use plenty of ice packs, sleep as upright as you can and make sure that strap is as tight as you can stand it across the top of your boobs as all these things help to reduce the swelling. I also took arnicare tablets and I’ve had no bruising and my swelling is going down rapidly – this could be coincidence but worth a try! Keep us updated and try not to worry xxx

    Thanks so much, when they say having surgery is a rollercoaster they really do mean it, one minute I think yes I’ll be patient it’ll all turn out ok in the end and the next I think omg what have I done 🙁 really hope my swelling goes down soon and I start to feel normal again, I hate feeling bloated and sore and achey and not sleeping properly is the worst bit 🙁 thanks Hun I really hope your right and it’ll all settle soon, I’ll let you know how i get on xx

    Yes this is defo swelling. It will go down babe just takes time. Your boobs have been through a lot. Drinking plenty of water help and walking around aswell.. the first few days are the toughest. Once you get past them you will forget all about it and be able to enjoy your new boobs xx
