I need help!!!!!

Girlies help me….i am 2 weeks post op and my nipples are sooooo sore and sensitive. They have cracked a bit and just feel so uncomfortable. Is this normal? Also…they look really big will they shrink down to normal size? xxxx

Omg same with mine! Mine are so sore they made me cry! Mine don’t look big though, maybe yours have swollen? I know we’re not supposed to use stuff on our boobs but I just want to put a little something on my nipples because they’re so dry 🙁

oh god ive put Vaseline on mine. Is that bad haha? I thought it would help them. When i take my sports bra off i feel it sticking and it hurts so much! they just feel so sensitive but still numb if that makes sense, I hope its normal! xx

Makes total sense! Any movement of clothes or even a duvet on mine actually hurts so bad. Yeah it is normal, some girls have the opposite where theirs are just full on numb x

Try coconut oil, natural and has great healing properties! X

Other people have been using cotton buds to cover there’s to protect them from rubbing on the sports bras? I hope this helps! x

Using a cottom pad will act as a little nipple cushion 🙂 xxx

@cheynne This will pass hun, for now I agree with the other girls about cotton wool pads 🙂 How are you finding recovery otherwise? I have my op next Wednesday currently counting down the days xxx

Thanks girls! i did wear cotton pads yesterday and it help but theyre still really sore.

@Lisa maria My recovery has been ok. Obviously its really painful and uncomfortable, the 1st week was awful. Im feeling alot better but theyre still sore and sleeping at an angle is really annoying haha. You must be so excited!! it will honestly be the best decision youve ever made. Im so happy with mine!! What size are you having xx

I think you can use bio oil? I asked my nurse at my 1 week post op check and she said yes but just not on incisions. xo

Mine get really sensitive just before my period, I just tend to wear no bra, or a soft bra but nothing really helps, im wondering if you used sudocrem or bio oil like chelsea mentioned. I just know ill get this too! can anybody tell me if you can still have you surgery if your on your monthly? im due on soon but its not very regular so wondering if i come on just before my op will they still do it?? xxx

Yes I was on my period when I had my op it was fine, just needed to put a liner in the very sexy paper knickers lol x

Try Lansinoh nipple cream and breast pads to stop the chaffing! I used Lansinoh when I was breastfeeding as my nipples were red raw – soothes them no end xx

I,m only 3 days post op and mine are sensitive whenever I take my sports bra off!! I’m sure it’ll get better with time, it’s most likely our bodies adjusting xx
