Hey girlies, just a quick update seeing as I’m now 3 weeks post-op!! How exciting.. can’t believe how quickly it’s gone by!!
Had a little panic yesterday as I was in a lot of pain whilst at work, my right breast was firmer and definitely causing me discomfort. Plus I was having back/shoulder spasms all along my right side which was also very uncomfortable. Had to call the emergency nurse as my clinic didn’t open until later and the receptionists were off for the day.. at first she wanted me to go all the way to Bristol to be checked out, but this is a 2 1/2 – 3 hour journey from where I live and there was no way I was driving myself that distance when I was that uncomfortable!! So instead I had to make an appointment to see my local GP.. they couldn’t fit me in at all yesterday but she saw me this morning, no infection or signs of infection.. basically I over did it with housework etc etc and need to rest as my right breast was slightly inflamed.
So… let this be a lesson for all you girlies waiting to have your op, or in the first couple of days post-op… DON’T DO THE HOUSEWORK!! Lol.. take your time, if someone can do the lifting/reaching bits for you then make them!! Haha, don’t do it yourself as it will slow down the healing process.
Another thing I will say as well is buy a comfy sports bra for yourself.. I only bought myself a MaCom and I wish I had a cotton bra to wear to bed etc as the MaCom is a funny material which can make me quite uncomfortable if I have to wear it all day and night. I’m going shopping with my friend on Sunday so I will be buying one then!! Lol
Overall I am happy with my new assets!! Even the doctor I saw today commented on how good they look which made me quite proud!! Haha.
Any questions etc please ask
Lots of love, Kaytee xx
Aww glad your ok Hun! I have already told My boyfriend I will not be lifting a finger for two weeks, as I’ve read from a lot of girls that they have Started to do things too early and the muscles have been in pain for the next few days. So DVDs and snacks and my bed

What surgeon are you having hun?? xx
Glad to hear ur doing well hun! Bet u cant wait to get measured?!

Great news that everything is ok. Think we are all guilty of over doing it a little sometimes. Us women aren’t very patient are we lol 
Take care hun xx
I CANNOT wait to be measured you’re right!! Lol.. but I think they only look about a C cup at most. Although I will measure bigger.
Thanks Faye.. and no we aren’t very patient, plus I’m a little OCD about the housework and like everything to be done properly.. boyfriend is good, but not great hehe!!
