    Hi girls,

    I’m four days post-op after having 300cc and and uplift. I’m in DD sports bra and I’m still a little bit sore and swollen still and my right breast is more high up still than my left breast (I had more work done on my right breast due to assymetry and differing uplift methods used during surgery). Was wondering if it would do any harm to have a short break from my sports bra? Also, is there any gentle exercies I can do to help with the swelling? I’ve been drinking plenty of water and applying ice packs. Also, about sleeping!! Am I to keep my back completely straight whilst sleeping? I soooooo want to lay down!! Thanks girls xxxxxx

    do not remove the bra!! keep that on for the best results as for sleeping if you lay down it is far harder and more sore to get up!!! xx

    Im having my BA on the 8th Feb…. Wondering would it do THAT much harm (so long as Im feeling OK) if i were to wear a pretty non-under wired bra for Valentines Day 6 days later? What do you think?

    Don’t do it, you won’t even want to. Get a black post-surgery bra and a little sexy something over the top (that doesn’t go over your head). I doubt you’d be up for much moving about either x

    I didn’t wear any button up stuff, pain was only slight, uncomfortable more than ought but no, I doubt you could wear a bra, I tried one on at 8 days an it was awful on my scars.x

    I found wearing a bra too early was uncomfortable and was so glad to put my sports bra back on for comfort x

    Hi Michelle,

    Keep going hun your almost passed the worst part! Keep the bra on and your body will tell you when you can lay more flat. The swelling lasts for a while too but i reckon you should start to see a difference soon.
