Still swollen and hurting

Hi , it’s two weeks ago today since I had my opp but they are still swollen and hurting is this normal please ?
Also when I wake up first thing in morning they ate really swollen and hard and the bra I wear to sleep on is so much tighter around the back then and tighter when I wake up . But yet when I put it in to go to bed it fits really nice . Has anybody else experienced this at all

Wow Ruth I’m sorry to hear this. I’m one week post op today and probably had about 15 hours sleep in the last week and was hoping it would get better ASAP!!! Such bad bad ache!!

Hey Ruth it’s all normal just part and parcel of the settling in etc I’m 6 weeks po today now I think it was around 3&1/2 -4 weeks it stops hurting and the swelling goes right down but I still wake up now with ‘morning boob’ they feel a bit tight and harder but in an hour they are usually fine again but that early on it would take a few hours best thing is to jump straight in the shower to help them soften up a bit quicker! Are you still sleeping upright too? What sports bra do you have? xx

Hi , thanks for reply . Yes sleeping In sports bra & wearing macom in day .
Sleeping flat but not propped up any more as it was really hurting my back . I wasn’t really given any guide lines on sleeping e.c.t either
