My Story – 265cc TRF unders 6/10/12

Hi everyone,

Really wanted to post my story because I’ve loved reading other girls on here over the last 3/4 months. Sooo heres how my day went…

I arrived at the hospital at 8am which was my admission time, me my mum and my dad were asked to take a seat and there would be somebody down to take us to my room shortly. There was another 3 ladies there when i arrived and another lady arrived just after me. One by one we were shown to our rooms – i was taken to a lovely big room with a little flat screen t.v. and nice furnishings. The nurse gave me some paper knickers, a gown and a robe to put on but i’d taken my own robe and said i was welcome to wear that. She asked me to choose what i wanted to eat off the menu (3 course meal) and whatever my mum wanted and tell the nurse when shes comes to do pre-op checks. each person came to see me in the wrong order haha so i think the nurse was busy. The anaestetist came first and was lovely! He told me not to worry as they are not butchers haha. answered all my questions and was very honest – he’d asked my parent to leave while he spoke to m but then went and asked them is there anything they wanted to know which i thought was good because he took into consideration how they felt aswell. Ms Maggi, my surgeon came to see me next. She drew on me and took my pictures; she said to me, ‘don’t worry i won’t take pictures of your face with no make up on, i just want your boobs’, she wasn’t too formal and it made me feel more at ease. She told me I was 3rd on her list. The nurse was last to come and see me and asked me the standard questions about when my last period was etc.. but i didnt need to do a pregnancy test. She gave me my surgical stockings and told me i’d be going to theatre at about 11am.

I thought i had an hour to chill out before going up to theatre but at 10.45 the theatre nurse came to get me, she let my mum walk me to theatre and told her they’d look after me. She and the anaethetist took me into theatre and introduced me to everybody who was in the room, helped me onto the bed and told me what to do. They told me i had a lovely tan aswell lol. The aneathetist put my canula in and told me i was about to feel very drunk, he started laughing asking me what i drink when i go out and do i get very drunk? But i felt the anaethetic hit me like a tonne of bricks and i told everybody that i was going to stop talking and close my eyes, so i said goodnight and look after me and i felt the lady hold my hand as i drifted off. I can’t believe how lovely and nicely informal everybody was, from my surgeon to the reception staff. Each little touch was lovely and it’s those little things that I remember, especially the lady who held my hand as i went to sleep, i know its a bit sad but i felt quite touched by it! haha

I remember waking up in recovery, i was shaking but wasnt cold, i had a big duvet on me and hot air blowing under my covers into my bed. There was another different lady who stayed with me, told me where i was and what was going on she told me i had a drip because i was dehydrated but i was fine and it was the morphine that was making me shake. I also asked her if i’d said anything strange haha but i didn’t thank god. I had to stay in recover for an extra 10 mins because my blood pressure was a bit low. But it was nothing major.. i was then wheeled down to my room, and as i got out of the lift my mum was sat there and the first thing i said was ‘MUM, i have boobss!!’.. she told me the surgeon had been down t 11.50 and told her i was done and doing fine in recovery and should be back down shortly – another nice touch! So they nurses put me into bed and put my bra, breastband and pj’s on. They gave me a glass of water and a jug with a straw which was heaven. The nurse asked me and my mum did we want coffe/tea and biscuits and said me to she’d be there every 10/15mins to take my blood pressure and if i felt uncomfortable to tell them so i could have more pain relief. Which i did! After 2 co-codamol i felt great! no sickness or any roughness, just very sore and a bit drunk! Didn’t stop me from eating EVERYTHING the chef brought me

My dad then came and brought my 2 close cousins at 3pm and there was no problem with having 4 people there seeing me at once, they were all shown where to help themselves to drinks and refreshments. They all went home at 4pm so had about 40minutes sleep before Ms Maggi came back to see me. She was so motherly, I love her, she said they looked great and told me she’d see me at my 3 months check up. My boyfriend turned up soon after with lots of treats! we watched strictly come dancing before the nurse came in at at about 6.30, went through all my post op stuff, gave me all my paper work and told me to take my time but i could leave when i wanted to. We left at about 7pm that night I was supposed to have drains as i have unders but i mustn’t have needed them as i was never given them! I asked the nurse about it and she said i mustn’t have bled too much.

I’m 2 days post op today i can’t lie, i have been really sore! i’ve not been ill or rough but i’ve had a fair bit of pain! i don’t know if its because i’ve had unders and the muscle has been cut but as soon as the painkillers ware off i can feel the pain kick back in! A couple of girls stories i’ve read on here have said they have no pain! 😮 lucky ladies haha. personally i’d rather have pain than be ill (I’m scared of vomitting) so i ahvent really minded but thank god that my mum dad and boyfriend are here because i haven’t had to lift a finger i havent been able to do much. Sleeping wise, I dont feel like i’ve done too badly, first night i went to sleep at 11.30pm, woke up 2 times in th night and then woke up and stayed awake at 7am, and last night i also woke up twice and stayed awake from 8am. Sleeping sat up isn’t the comfy-est, giving me back ache now but it’ll be over in a week or so

I’ve managed to put a few pictures up aswell.. i hope this will help some pre-op girls even though my op was with transform! if you want to ask me anything feel free to! xxx

I love reading everyones stories so thanks for sharing :)Hope the pain goes away for you very soon and you heel well!! So scared for my turn. Hope you dont mind if I add you! Which Hospital were you at hun? Also what size were you to start? I’ve been offered 265/295… Do they feel like a good size so far? xx

Thanks for sharing your great story hun! I love reading peoples experiences as no one knows what to expect! Im really looking forward to my operation on the 17th october, Dr Schiavone is doing my op at the Droitwich Spa Hospital. Im staying over night which is something that im not looking forward to for personal reasons! Luckily enough my lovely Husband is coming to the hospital with me so im sure he will look after me

Happy healing chicky

xx

its nice isnt it to know how everybodys day went; it helped me know what to expect! Don’t be nervous though, theres no need to be; i never had chance to get nervous because everybody was too calm nice lol. I was at transforms abbeypines in manchester. It was lovely, felt more like a hotel! I started at a 30B and asked to be a ull c cup, at the moment though i’m in a 34D! @hollycarr i’m sure your hubby will look after you, my bf suprised me at how good he was haha – they pull it out of the bag sometimes xx

hehe see, men can be useful sometimes!!

my hubby has agreed to wash my hair for me, dry it and straighten it for me..im not sure what the end result will be but his hearts in the right place!

i cant wait for my op, im not nervous at all!! bring on 17th october!! xx

awww thats so sweet!! haha i’m going ask mine to do tha now – i’ll let you know what he says haha.. roll on the 17th hun! you’ll have your boobies and mne will have stopped hurting! lol xx

Fab post op story! Hope mine will be as good…getting nervous and its still over a month away! lol do you feel 265 is big enough? I have been offered 285/310 but only an A cup to start with x

i was a 30b hun and like i said, at the moment i’m wearing a 34d sports bra.. it depends how big you want to be? i said to my surgeon a full c cup and judging by what i am now i think i’ll be that my advice though would be to take the bigger size you get offered because there is barely anything between 1 implant size xxx

Hi I had my op yesterday first night sleeping sitting up in nearby hotel and its awful woke up about 12 times lol I was a 32a to begin with small frame was offered 230 240 and 255, went for 255 thought may as well go biggest only thing is I thought I would be a 32C but apparently you also go up a back size too so the 32C sports bra I took with me isn’t suitable now do my mams guna have to stop at M&S on the way home and ill have to wear the bandage home.. Has anyone else heard this before?? The one I bought was £22.50 and had no give in it what so ever and not supposed to wear ones that pull over your head.. Apart from that everything went well and I was in a lot of pain when I woke up in the recovery room so asked for more morphine but then when it started to kick in I’ve been okay. Thanks everyone resting stories on here really helped me !!! Xxx

Hey girls I’m 9 days post op I’ve had 265 overs an I hate them I was a 34A to start wiv an was told I wud be takenn up at a D cup at the moment I’m wearing a 34 C sports bra an it is slightly big on the bust so I think I’m going to end up about a 34 B which I’m not happy wiv as I’ve paid a lot of money an not achieved the results I was hoping for so for all u wondering about what size to go I woould say always go as big as surgeon will take u an my 265 overs hav only took me uup 1 cup size an u can’t even tell I’ve had them done all the sleepless nights and discomfort have been for noughing cuz I no I will getting them done again at some point

Love reading everyone’s stories, makes me feel a bit more at ease! Can’t wait to be in the boobie gang )) I hope u don’t mind but I’ve sent u a friend request xx

@chantellelouise – sorry to hear you’re not happy with the results of your 265’s 🙁 Did you see more than one surgeon when doing your research?? I’m suprised you were only given 265’s if you expected a full D cup – I asked for a full C and at the moment I’m switching between 34C and 34D sports bras.. I’m so happy with my results – they look really natural and full and I’m only 12 days post op. All I’d say to any girls wanting to be sure about size is go see different surgeons and get different opinions and ask other girls on the forum. Although the same size implants give every girl a different result so be careful when deciding and trust your surgeon. xx

@chantellelouise – @graciemac FEAR NOT! i had 400s from an AA to be a ‘DD’ and was wearing a B/C cup sports bra for 4 weeks! i was gutted, howvere, im now 7 weeks P.o and i am measuring a mahoosive 32E!!!! you will have a lot of changes and growth still to come girls, PROMISE! xxx 🙂
