    Hi,

    I’m 5 days post-op from 525 overs, and i dont want to tempt fate, but so far the pain has been very minimal.

    I took paracetamol and codeine 4 times a day for the first day and a half, as well as a couple of diclofenac anti-inflammatories. Since the second half of day two, i have only been taking the diclofenac.

    I do have some mild pain under the right boob, at the incision site. and i occaionally get it under the left one as well – but it is definitely very bearable pain.

    Everyone is different though, so its not possible to say how much pain you will have. Overs involve less trauma to the body because you are not cutting through muscle – muscle has a very good nerve supply ,so will give off more pain signals if damaged. The recovery with overs is therefore quicker than with unders.

    I’ve not had any babies yet, so cant compare the pain to milking breasts!

    Hope that helps xxx

    Ah thanks chick- you’ve defo been a help!

    It’s so hard to determine, as like u said evryone’s different! Good to know you’ve been coping ok tho!

    Do they feel quite heavy on your chest? Thats another thing i’m dreading! As well as the GA and other things!!

    Ha! What am i like! Wanted this done for 10 years..and now i’m financially able too- i feel like not bothering!!

    Anxiety getting the better of me again!!

    Hope u continue to heal well chick!

    i had overs 5 months ago and have to say pain what pain, im sure i was supposed to feel some but i didnt lol, i had tightness across my chest and that was it, i was in the pub 4 hours after my opp having food and out shopping the next day, i didnt even take any pain killers, i know everyone is diffrent, but i had a good experience xx

    They do feel a bit heavy, but i think thats because they are still tight and swollen. Its also coz i’m not used to having bumps there!

    I was scared about everything before my op. I’m still bloody scared of something going wrong now!.. But i’m so glad I did it.

    Its normal to be anxious. But the vast majority of people have a good experience and love their new body much more than their original one…!

    So I would say go for it xxxx

    I had 380cc overs! I heard overs was less painful than unders. I dont think I was in that much pain at all considering! I expected worse. Pain-killers pretty much numb most of the pain/discomfort. Just felt heavy andf scars ached when I moved around too much. Its all bearable and totaly worth it. I was pretty much painfree after 7 days. Just dont try lifting anything too soon or do to much. I didnt pick up my daughter for 2 weeks. It difficult but is for the best xxx

    I know u wanna know about overs but I had unders 2 weeks ago n haven’t had any pain, tightness, aching, pressure feeling but not pain. I found it very similar to when ur milk comes in the only difference is u can’t feed to take that pressure feeling away :) I gently rubbed oil in them n that helped. I took my muscle relaxant tablets but no pain killers.

    Just thought I’d let u know, but as already said everyone is different. Xx

    I heard overs are meant to be less painful too, but just to let you know I had unders and have not had any pain – so if unders are suposed to hurt much more, then I guess overs feel like minus pain? :D haha x x

    Thanks cheeky!

    What size did u have? Have u found the whole process pretty good then? Mind if i FR you?
