Hey ladies just wanted to give you an update. Had my strapping off yesterday thought it would be painful. Actually a really nice feeling lol. Stitches removed just the dissolvable ones left in. Nurse said the incisions are healing well. I need to keep the steristrips on until Friday just to help still against any infection and I can take my first shower Friday night wahoooo! I’ve posted pics. I’m so happy so far with them. 1 boob looks slightly bigger due to the angle I had to take a selfie lol.
Hi Louise, You must be so pleased..they look perfect. I noticed that you had overs, Have they started to soften yet? I had 520 uhp overs on Monday and am doing well at the moment. Will it be ok if I add you?
Thanks
Hi Louise pleased to hear everything going well , and they look amazing , I’m seeing nurse today , so fingers crossed everything ok , I’m back at work tomorrow! X
@Louise you had your op the same day as me. I had a 275cc overs with Dr Marcellino.
Saw the nurse yesterday but have to go back to get stitches out and still can’t shower. I’m still really swollen
Did you take anything for bruising or swelling like arnica tablets? Did you ice your boobs?
I know everyone heals differently but I’m can’t help comparing myself to everyone else.
@jc66 the nurse yesterday said they are beginning to soften already. I find it hard to touch them atm feels so weird and still numb in places so don’t feel like mine lol. Glad your doing well! My recovery so far has been great. The nurse said hopefully I stay like it and are one of be lucky ones. I drove to the shop yesterday as was a bit worried about driving yet but it was ok. Yeah of course add me x
@adele oh no glad I don’t have to go back until the 6 week mark as I live in bmouth and it’s a nightmare to keep getting to Bristol. I can’t shower until Friday night. Left one is perfectly healing right one was a tiny gap she said that wasn’t as dry so she has put a steristrip on the left and an iodine strip on the right so it won’t get infected. So looking forward to having a long shower! What day are you going back Hun to get stitches out?
I haven’t taken anything apart from what they gave me. I stopped taking the cocodamol few days ago as it was making me constipated and bit light headed. Swapped it for paracetamol.
I know it’s hard but everyone’s bodies are so different. Hope you start to get back to normal ASAP x
