Is it true that the recovery time for over’s is quicker than under’s??

what do you all think?? x

i think it’s quicker for overs, but it depends on the person 🙂 i had unders and i’m still in pain 9 days post op now xx

it took me til day 12 to feel 100% I had unders too xx

OOh ok and what CC’s did you gals have? x

i had 450cc natrelle unders from a small C 🙂 x

I had overs and I’m am 2 weeks post op today and still in pain! Was expecting to be right as rain after 3 days but as they say everyone body heals differently x

I think its different for everyone. I had unders and I was never really in pain just discomfort/tightness. I went to shops and pizza hut 3 days po. Felt normal by 7/8 days.

yeh definitely different for everyone, I had unders and felt fine, day 5 and 6 I had a bit of pain but other than that I almost forgot I had it done! the strapping was the worst part for me x

So interesting I will have my op by the end of may but i am wondering if ppl are rushing the healing and not taking it real slow as the doc suggests so now we can be the cause of it taking longer???

I def understand we are all different and heal differently but i have seen lots posts about pain and it lasting a long time on here…. on Utube reviews and my Doc it does not appear to be as dramatic. Or is it there are more that talk when its goes “wrong” rather than right?? i know us girls like to vent hahaha xxxxxx

I had overs and thought I was fine after a week. I started doing everything I did before the op and it really set me back. Just because you feel fine you are still heinh and now if I stretch too far or lift something heavy my incisions hurt. It is easier said than done, especially with children but you should do as little as possible for as long as you can xx

Healing

I was the same as you @Madeleine, thought I was a capable of doing things like normal but clearly set my healing back! Like you I have a little one so it’s tough to just relax and recover! X

Very hard with kids!

I was so lazy the first week but i think it really helped my recovery.

@Laura this is my plan! even if i feel ok

Lol milk it for all you can! I told my other half I was gonna have a procedure every year just to get a good two weeks of cleaning lol and watch him do it for once!

Ive been to see nurse today and she thinks i might hav over done it as my incisions have been bleeding but she said not to worry as they arnt open but i need to be really careful the next week or so. So nurses orders for me to go back to being lazy lol.

@laura, glad your ok! gosh I really see that we have to follow all the nurse and docs guidelines xx

Yer last thing i wanna do is open my incisions. Its silly things like reaching up to high cupboards that u think ur ok with but actually its probs just as bad as lifting.
