Anyone that’s already had the op?

I’m booked in Friday 3rd November and I’m so nervous! Please can you tell me how long you waited before washing your hair and doing everyday things? Xx

I was up and out 4DPO just took it easy – walked slower etc no heavy carrying – I went to the hairdrssers and got a blow dry 🙂 xx

Hi Hannah. I had my op today! Feeling much better than I thought I would, just going to try take it easy! Good luck for Friday and try not to be too nervous ☺️ Xxx

I’m about 14wks post op now, I washed my hair over the bath myself on day 3, I was just taking paracetamol from day 2-5 then nothing after just the odd day when I was a bit achey….. I’ve got 4 children single parent I had help for the first 3 days with lifting my 1 year old that’s it! I didn’t go out the first week though other than day 4 I walked to local shop 10mins n got bread walked back but the second week I was back to normal a lot less tight feeling still had morning boob n acheyness on n off till bout week 7-8 but i was def over the worse by day 4…. I had 450 partials from a small b cup xx

Also I say I was doing most things but I didn’t lift the hoover mow the grass or anything like that till past 6weeks (I could hoover wood floors coz it was easy n I just got my son to hoover upstairs for me….. I did light housework only, don’t lift heavy wash basket I just threw the clothes over the banister…. Just did the things I had to do n rested when I could xx

@hannah try not to be too nervous, you’ll be well looked after and surprisingly the day goes really quickly! I washed my hair over the bath at 5DPO. I had strapping on for the first week and tbh, I didn’t feel myself until this had come off. It was uncomfortable and restricted my breathing xx

I went for a blowdry ????

Good look with your op @hannah you will be amazed at how fast the day goes. I am 3dpo and haven’t used any pain relief due to not liking taking medication. I would see how you feel and let your body tell you when its ready to do more things like showering and washing your hair. Having a blow dry at the hair dressers sounds like a genius idea girls I think I will be making an appointment today!

??? Are a monkey emoji x

I washed my hair everyday with help from a friend and then washed it myself day 5 post op. It was a good 6 days before I started pottering about the house but didn’t hoover until 3 weeks post op xxx
