Hello!
So I had my op on Tuesday. Everything went well and was only under for around 90 minutes.
I came round at 10:00 and had an awful taste in my mouth for a good 2 days and had to sleep with circulation pumps on my legs for the night in hospital. I didn’t have any strapping on for the first night so got a really good look at my new boobies and I am so happy with them!
I bought loads of m&s bras ranging in sizes 34-36 as I knew there would be swelling and I’m glad I did! I would usually wear 32 D but after the op I’m in a 36G due to the swelling!
I got home and was quite ok for the first day. Started to notice my stomach was really starting to swell but I read that’s normal.
Went to sleep the first night home and woke up to paramedics as id started to seizure during the night (apparently anaesthetic reactions happen 24-48 hours after you have it) was told it was nothing to worry about and to take it extra careful.
Again woke up that morning and I looked 9 months pregnant!! Walking around with TRex arms and struggling to do anything! The bra is really annoying and the sleeping position is a nightmare.
4DPO and I’m more alert, no dizzy spells and pain is beginning to be manageable. I went to a salon for a wash and blow dry (highly recommended as it has made me feel 10x better! Had a shallow bath to have a good wash and got dressed into something comfy but nice! Have my 1 week appointment in 3 days so excited to see if they’ve changed much! My boobs are starting to itch now which I’ve read is normal in healing so glad about that!!
