    I was a 32 a and never have had boobs even when I was pregnant!! And have always wanted a ba!

    But after having my ba I really was thinking what have I done because I was in so much pain!!

    But I’m now post op day 7 and I love my new additions and realise it was so totally worth it!! And the pain only lasted me for the first 4 days really! I still get little twinges but it more uncomfortable rather than pain!

    It is by far the oddest thing I ever done coz atm everytime I stand up I feel there guna just full out ? I guess you just need to get use to them and accept them as ur own!

    But having this done was the best thing ever and I can not wait to go bra and bikini shopping!

    So to any girls who have just had it done I know it’s quite painful but as each day that goes past you will find it better and better! When I almost had a break down some of the girls on here said to me that by day 4 I’ll start feeling better and I really did!!

    ❤️❤️

    Thanks for posting this!! I am 3 days PO and I keep thinking will this ever ease off. I’m excited to see them change and get soft and start enjoying them. Right now they’re hard and my cleavage feels like it’s rock solid and being torn apart haha. Glad you’re happy! Xx

    @mrssheppard2be it really is worth it! I had all the same thoughts b4 my op that’s just nerves! And it is painful I’m not guna lie but really just for the first 4 days! And what’s 4 days compared to having amazing boobs that ur guna love and be very proud of! I never got my boobs out I front of ppl coz I was always to shy and embarrassed but I honestly can’t stop showing ppl now lol the pain and discomfort is all worth it!!


    @plm1991
    Yh my boobs and still hard as there’s still quite a bit of swelling and there guna change loads which I’m excited about! But after day 4 you will start to notice that things become a little easier to deal with and u dont feel so much pain!!

    My tricks iv learnt over the last 7 days is keep ice packing them! And a hot water bottle for back and neck!
    When sleeping iv been putting a pillow under my knees and a hot water bottle under my back and I’m not waking up so stiff and numb! But as the days go past you will start adding we thing into u night time routine! Also my saving grace for sleeping have been my neck pillow that u use on planes!!! If u haven’t got one defiantly invest in one! Lol xx

    I agree!! I remember saying when I was 2 days post op ‘I wish I never had it done I regret it’ and the pain isn’t worth having boobs?but I definitely would go through it all again it’s the best thing I have ever done and the best money I’ve ever spent I’m so much more confident now and going on holiday is nice and not having to worry about push up bikinis and wearing push up bras it’s so nice to have clevege so whoever is second thinking about getting it done don’t because it’s so worth it!!x

    How long do we actually have to sleep sat up? I’ve heard 2 weeks 3 weeks 6 weeks??? It’s awful also when you say you had no pain after 4 days did you ever feel like when you went to sit up ur incisions feeling like they are tearing open?? I’m day 12 and my back kills I have pain in my incisions and still have limited movement in left arm I did have unders don’t know of that would affect differently ?? Xx

    @silverlamp I was told to sleep like this for 6 weeks but I guess it depends on ur body because some ppl start sleeping normal from 5 weeks! Nd when I say no pain I mean that I doesn’t hurt but it is still uncomfortable but bearable! My incisions don’t feel like there tearing but they do itch and sometimes sting! But I have had some pulling pain in my clevage in the last 2 days I guest it’s just all settling done and stretching and stuff! My back its proberly the worse because iv always got a back ache atm I find sleeping with a hot water bottle invader my lower back really helps and it supports it whilst relaxing it at the same time! I’m still only po day 9 so I have moved my arms much yet as I’m a bit worried to do that but once I get to day 14 I’ll start slowly building back up strength in arms and stuff! I see on Google some light exercises you and do to slowly build up movement! X

    I am actually crying while reading this… Am 2 days post op and in so much pain, I could never imagine it being this bad! I really really hope it will get better by day 4 as you say but am so worried it won’t
    Feel like i’m at the point of a breakdown, panicking about only having 2 more days worth of pain killers left as well. 🙁

    @imryberg I was exactly the same! I promise you it gets better! As soon as ur pain killers run out take paracetamol and ibuprofen every 2 hours that’s what I did and keep icing it! U will be fine! I honestly thought the pin would never end but it really does each day u will feel better and better! And it will all be worth it! Xxx

    Thank you so much Kim, this was so comforting to read.. I keep feeling that my breast band is pushing down so hard on my breasts that they’re gonna be mishaped but maybe that’s just yet another paranoid feeling.. How is the shape of yours looking now?

    @imryberg the breast band is there to stop the implants moving whilst they settle into the breast pocket! Mine are still very swollen so need to drop and fluff still but the shape so far is good! Xx
