    I drove at day 8 but it just depends when you feel ready. Tho is there something with car insurance where you’re not insured for 7 days after a ga? I might be wrong but worth checking hun x

    yea i think there is! did u feel like u could have drove sooner or where u still too sore? im just trying to work out if ill b able to drive cos i live in the middle of nowhere! xx

    Personally I wasn’t comfortable driving till 3 weeks post op. Every time i moved in the car it pulled and felt very uncomfortable. I didn’t want top risk unnecessary straining. Doubt it will take this long if you had overs though x

    Yeah meant to say I had overs. As newb@@bies says if you’re having unders it will probs be longer before you feel well enough to drive x

    thats about what im hoping for, r u pleased with them? how much where they? it seems to change from clinic to clinic! xx

    Menu

    It changes depending on the discounts available at the time. I had a discount for booking during April, then for being a day case, and i think there was something else but can’t remember. Friend referral also gets you £150 off (pm me if you want to use my name). I paid £3,650 in total, then £60 for a hotel for the night (i was a day case).

    I’m pleased with them yes, they’re very natural looking. But I’m actually planning another BA as they’re not big enough LOL x

    I couldn’t even stand being a passenger in the car for a week after my unders, and 2wks after, still couldn’t even work a tin opener!!!, took almost a month for my upper body strength to return to when I felt I could safely drive more than just round the corner! It will all depend on what you have and how you heal. I wasn’t bandaged up or anything, just literally had a plaster on each scar and told no bra at all for 6wks, so maybe it’s because I didn’t have any support for them!! x

    lol, I was working in a Nursery, lifting kids up and down all day, I had about 10days off, and just walked/got bus/taxi there & back for the first few days, then just drove on the back roads as carefully as I could, as the size difference made me drive slightly differently at first! I’m sure you’ll be fine x
