Hello Girls,
Were is best place to purchase a sports bra from??
xx
Anyone??
Alot of people use the Macom sports bra purchased online, its a post surgery bra that people claim is very comfy, supportive and also doesnt rub on your incisions. They are quite pricey but your new boobies are worth it! 😀
Also alot of people on here use the zip up M&S support bra, again another comfy, supportive bra!
However it is alot to do with preference and your own comfort, lots of ladies have said just the normal tesco/ASDA bras are just as good!
Hope this helps hun xxx
Thank you that has helped alot 🙂 xxx
It’s on the 18th April, im scared and excitied 🙂 xxxx
I bought a couple cheap and cheerful from asda. They were £4 each and i’ve worn three of them at different points since my surgery on tues. Im on the 34dd now 🙂 They are really supportive and easy to put on even though they fasten at the back. I’m waiting to find out what size I am in a couple of weeks and will buy a good shock absorber 🙂 x
Good luck for the 18th chick xxx
I bought a black one from m and s high impact sports bra. Its black with a leopard print trim. My nurse said i won’t need it till my post op appointment though so will probably get another one the next size up just in case!!! hope this helps xx
I still wear my primark one like everyday haha not good lookin if I’m naked but gives me great cleavage v supportive and comfy!:) i love it more than most bras haha oh and when I was recovering I didn’t feel all hot and sweaty 🙂
I might have to pop into Primark and have a look in there Lottie, thankyou for that!xxx
Thanks girls 🙂 xxx
also what do you ake in your overnight bag?? xx
Pjs, slippers, dressing gown, toothbrush, baby wipes, hair brush and bobbles/clips, comfy underwear, your sports bra if you need it, baggy top, jogging bottoms and zip up hoodie. Food wise take some snacks, maybe your favourite, crisps, choccy or sweets. Maybe your ipad/laptop for films. Books and magazines to keep you occupied.
Take off/out any jewellery/piercing, take off any nail varnish, no fake nails, eyelashes, tan or make up. No deodrant or mosituriser 24 hours before op. Have waxed whatever you normally would.
You have to be a bit of a plain Jane really!
Au natural and all of that! xxx
i got told eyelashs don’t matter, if they are the semi-perminant ones xx
Thankyou danielle going to take my onsie 🙂 xx
Ok, as long as you’ve been told they are fine thats ok, i was told by m surgeon no lash or nail extensions i think some surgeons are more picky than others! 😛
Im going to feel like unbelievably plain, i always have arcylic nails on and to not have them is going to be soo strange! You are also advised after your op to use roll on deodrant aswell instead or areosol sprays and obviously keep perfume/moisturiser/water any sort o fluid well away from your incisions until you are told otherwise! 🙂
Onnsie sounds spot on Kelly 🙂 dead easy to get in and out of! 🙂 xx
Thank you Danielle 🙂 great advise 🙂 there nice and warm and dead confy as well :~) xxx
I got to keep my gel nails cos they were nude and my pulse was readable through them! So was pleased
wow, very lucky, ill be going to have mine put back on within the first week! I love my nails!
Think alot of it is down to your surgeon and what each one prefers! xx
Yes ino i love my nails as well 🙁 ill be having them put staright back on haa xx
i asked my mum earlier if she’d drive me within the first few days, im going to be lost not being able to drive for a week 🙁 xxx
I had my op tuesday evening and was driving on thursday. I didn’t really have an option as I didn’t have anyone to help and had to be places, but i was fine. I was only advised definitely not on the day or for 24 hours! My friend (who doesn’t drive) came with me the first time, and i just drove like when I was learning – sliding the steering wheel through my hands 🙂 But yeah if you have someone to do it then definitely go with that 🙂 xxx
whos doing your op kelly? mines in 15 days! well excited/nervous! xx
