Just a little update for those who are pre-op and wanting to know what to expect.
I’m now on day 3 post op and I feel sooooooo much better than I have done for the past 2 days! Day 1 and 2 were just a bit of a daze really. I didn’t sleep for longer than a few hours at a time, my back side hurt 24/7 (as well as my boobs, back, neck…) and I spent my day laying around with frozen vegetables on my chest wondering if it would ever get better.
But last night I managed a full nights sleep and today I feel like a new woman! Ok, maybe I wouldn’t go that far but I’ve managed to have a shallow bath and wash my batiste-soaked hair. The pain hasn’t gone but is a lot better than it has been. I’m also amazed at how good my boobs are looking already! I thought I’d be a bit of a freak show for at least a few weeks but they’re nice and round, symmetrical and natural looking already! Wheyyyyyyy!
So I just thought I’d give you an update and just say, yes, day 1 and 2 are horrific but chin up it gets better!! (Fingers crossed it stays like this as I’m back to work on Wednesday, eek!) X
