    Hey ladies

    Can someone tell me what the nurse does on the 1st check up visit?

    Mine is booked for tomorrow and I’m not sure what to expect.

    I’ve already taken my tape off so she won’t do that.

    I guess she’ll check the scars and put on new dressing?

    But what about stitches; I thought they were dissolvable but I’ve seen posts on here about taking them out!? The thought of having stitches taken out makes me feel pretty sick.

    Arrgghhhh nervous now!!! :(

    hi girls glad you ok. i had my 1 week check in brum today at 12 not 11 silly me. they told me much the same put sterile strips on, got to use johnsons body wash for next 5 weeks. I one bob bigger than other lol because one has ore swelling she said its because i’m right handed i do more with that side so the fluid drains better. She assures me they will even out. They look much bigger out of the bra don’t they lol. xxx
