Post Op?

Due to have surgery on the 9th April.. Any suggestions on things to get for after surgery? Either for comfort or to help.. Thanks 🙂 x

Hi kirsty! Iv got my op on feb 27th and loads of people have suggested V-pillows. They r only 9 quid from argos and r meant to help u sleep upright! X

Defiantly a v pillow! I’m 6 weeks post op and still use mine xx

I some bra extenders off eBay for £2.70 which I found very helpful x

Thanks girls! Time to go shopping. Plus good luck for the 27th jakki 🙂 xx

Thank u Kirsty! Getting nervous now! 10 sleeps! X

Dry shampoo ! Xx

You will be fine Jakki, i wish mine was only 10 sleeps away! Feels like forever to wait lol. Thanks Emma 🙂 x

Def a v pillow, dressing gown, slippers, clothes that do up the front & pjs that also do up the front (I live in dresses so it was dreadful wearing joggers n hoodies so bought some button up dresses etc 🙂 ) plenty of sports bras incase you don’t like the others- I bought 6, 1 from Asda, 2 from primark, a Macom, a Royce & a cheap one off eBay n the Macom was by far my favourite I have lived in it n hated wash day but everyones different! also known a lot of girls that didn’t buy the Macom & hated all their sports bras so had to go get the m&s zip up front ones for £22 they’re supposed to be really comfy, buying myself one today 🙂 xx

Thanks ducky! Thats my shopping list done lol xx

Apart from the shopping list… At home get things out of high and low cupboards, or pushed back that you need, a friend to wash your hair, lots of fresh fruit. Try limit pushing yourself unless you feel ok, walk around loads, but rest more xx

Good advice, i didnt think of that! Hopefully my Boyfriend wont mind becoming my hairdresser lol! Does it feel uncomfortable at first to walk around? xx

Will you have someone at home for the first week for support? I don’t know what I would’ve done, I had friends for the first couple days, my mum then my boyfriend to fetch things & make sure I could reach things like tea & mugs etc for when they weren’t around, it’s a very odd feeling walking around with new breasts & them being strapped down either with strapping or a pressure garment i.e a sports bra everyone laughs at me I walk so funny!! Xx

Il have my boyfriend there to look after me which is good 🙂 but when hes out and about i dont want to be stuck in my bedroom lol. I bet it is a weird feeling, i just cant wait!! 😀 xx

take a pillow with you to place between your self and the seat belt for your drive home x def v pillow try to get waxed before coz u wont be able to shave pits for a while lol and comfy lazy clothes every thing at low heights lots of water and fruite, if a friend cant wash your hair go to a salon for wash and dry , oh and some arnica and paracitamol

Thanks Tracey! 🙂 xx
