Feeling very unattractive!

I am now day 5 post op and whilst I’m happy with my new breasts I cannot help but feel unattractive. I have been feeling extremely bloated and constipated. I feel bigger than I’ve ever been. I’ve not washed my hair in almost a week and I can’t bring myself to ask my boyfriend to help as he has already been doing so much for me. My one week check up with the nurse is Wednesday so at least after than I will be able to shower. Is anyone else feeling the same? Xxx

Snap!! I’m now 4 days post op, and am experiencing everything you’ve described. I look as though I’m 6 months pregnant, feel like I haven’t washed in a year, and generally just feeling icky haha!! I haven’t even had a good look at my boobies coz I have this bloody strapping on!! I just keep thinking that it’ll all be worth it in the end and am counting down the days til I see my nurse on Thursday. Don’t worry babe, just a few more days……xxxxx

I’m feeling the same I’m po day 4 and feeling dirty this strapping is driving me mad feeling so tight especially first thing in morning is anyone suffering any pain at all I’m getting a sharp pain in my left boob mostly at night when I lay down or sit up loving the boobs but roll on Thursday to get strapping off xxxxxxx

I’m day 2 ha and I’m a whale already so yes exactly the same ha I just feel like a pregnant woman tender breasts and huge stomach xxx

I had my op on Friday and only today have I managed to get dressed haha feel so grotty I’m gonna ring the hairdressers today see if I can get booked in for a wash and blow dry to make myself feel better if you can get up and about I would definitely say do the same girlies. Happy healing xxx

Thanks girls. It is good to hear that I am not alone with the whale-like, pregnant, itchy all over symptoms. I probably could try and wash my hair but feel it’s probably not worth the hassle and pain of trying. I think going to a hairdresser is good advice. I will book myself in for a few days time for a pamper. I’ve also just got back from the supermarket and purchased lots of high fibre products and healthy food in general. Perhaps we should use this forum as advice for feeling less yucky. Xxx

Precisely! I’m sure you Boyf wouldn’t min washing you hair, my Boyf made me have it washed he couldn’t bare to look at it lmao! I’m huge like literally look like I’m about to give birth however haven’t had the constipated side affect – how does that make sense!!!! Lmao. Hopefully wel all go back to Feelingf attractive once we can shower and off the antibiotics ! Xx

Girls soon u off them meds it goes down in couple off weeks wen I had mine I drank green tea it’s natural and helps body get no to normal x

The antibiotics are making me feel really ill and making my face greasy I also keep getting hot sweats is this normal. Dry shampoo would be OK for now hun but I also feel discusting so ur not the only one lol xxxc

I’m pleased I’m not the only one! I actually look poorly and my hair is a mess! I’m post op day 3 and I’ve just managed to put some clothes on alothough my mam had to dress me! Xx

Yes Lindsey – greasy skin. What is that about!! I’m slowly doing more for myself at day 5. Thanks for the green tea advice Melody, I will get some tomorrow xxx

I got my hair done at the hairdressers about 5/6 days after op felt so good I was sick straight after coming round and it went straight to my weave I was fuming! So girls I totally feel where your coming from! Once your able to have a proper shower you will start to feel better! Maybe it’s just water your retaining rather than getting the constipated side effects @jessicakeyx I wouldn’t complain tho! Xx

I’ve got greasy skin gross hair I sweated loads on my journey back an kept being sick ha and I’m still so pregnant looking haha put a maxi dress on and it was literally just two mountains then an even bigger mountain of belly haha so yeah I think it’s safe to say we’re all in the post op gruesome club haha at least it’s Halloween soon already feel like I’m dressed up for it ?? xxxx

Haha yes Ele, we are definitely ready for Halloween!! Sounds like your journey back was pretty tough. I’m day 6 post op now and I was finally feeling better but was sick a lot after my breakfast this morning. I cannot wait to feel normal. I’m going to make myself a hair appointment for later in the week I think. Xxx
