i no if it depends if you have overs or unders but how many days were you girls really suffering?? my husband cant take much time off i was thinking 4 or 5 days??xx
Hi
i am only 1 week post op and i would say day 3 and 4
i had overs xxxx
hope you feel better soon
today…day 6 only took 1 lot of painkillers !! xx
I had overs, i was ok, worst pain was for 3 days then it settled, just felt tight and a bit sore at the side of my boobs! I was back at work after 1 week! im now 12 days post op xxx
i had no pain at all. just tightess across chest and ribs at first and stiffness in shoulders. couldnt really lift arms at first as then it felt like little jabs in sides of boobs. days 2 and 3 were worst, after that got better, by day 5 felt pretty good could do quite abit, by day 8 was doing all normal things again without even the slightest twinge.
my boyfriend had to help dress me and brush my hair etc first 3 days then was fine so id say 4/5 days would be enough.
im 1 of the lucky ones though thats had it easy, i know some of the girls have suffered more than me x x
hi havent had it done but booking it soon ive got kids so just wanted idea thanks girls maybe get him to have five days off. Will find out weds what size and unders or overs xxx
In all honestly, I havent really been in pain! I’m day 4 post op and only took one lot of painkillers this morning. The tightness is still there and one of my incisions is a bit tender to touch but otherwise fine.
I thought I’d be in a lot more pain then this! It’s never been unbearable pain. I took three days off work and I’m returning tomorrow.
I had overs. I’d imagine unders would hurt a lot more for some reason? X
I’m booked in for mine in July and it’s when my hubby is on his two weeks off …. I’ll have to lift my baby to bed etc after these two weeks just hoping I’ll be ok for that xx
You’ll be fine. I’m able to put my daughter (one year old) in her cot just fine and I’m 4 days post op. I’m still not carrying her etc just yet, I probably could but don’t want to risk it. You should be fine after 2 weeks
x
Oh that’s fantastic that’s all I was worried about …. just getting her in and out of her cot an carrying her down stairs she’s only one xx
Haha Chezzies – It’s true though, I was expected to be in an unreal amount of pain but it’s been a breeze so far. I’m a proper wimp when it comes to pain and suffering but it’s been fine!
IN FACT, the only thing that pains me the most is not being able to cuddle my baby properly!
