Hi Girls,
I had my op Tues morning and the pain just seems to be getting worse! I had unders and have been told to keep my breastband on 24/7 for the first 2 weeks which is making me feel like I’ve got an elephant on my chest 🙁 I knew it would be painful but not this bad! Any words of wisdom as to when I can expect the pain to improve would be greatly appreciated!

Aww hope ur ok hun. Just try keep on top of ur meds. I don’t really know wot else to say cos I dint have any pain! Hope u feel better soon xx
Hey cara the pain is always bad in the 1st I had to keep my chest band for 4 weeks you will get use to it huni I put my chest band over my sports bra and at nite put it over my pjs if the pain is bad ring you GP xx
The pain I had was uncontrollable! I couldn’t even take the painkillers because they just made me sick.
The pain will start getting better on the 4th day, then a few day will go on feeling sensitive but you can start doing most things. Then the point where one week comes along and you actually think, oh my god I can’t believe how normal I feel now. I didn’t think it was ever going to go away but I woke up one next morning feeling bright as rain! When u start feeling comfortable again, that’s when it alll becomes totally worth it. 🙂 happy healing x
Aww babe bless you! it will get better just focus on your breathing to ride it out. I don’t have unders but an uplift with implants & was in a lot of pain so I reallyyy feel for you, just make sure you breathe deep as shallow breaths will only get you worked up, also I know it’s hard but start to potter around a little so you don’t seize up & cause you more pain & discomfort..you’ll get there honey..think positive 🙂 xxx
Thanks for the support girls, I am making sure I get up and walk around a bit, still need my bf to help me get out of bed though he is literally doing everything for me bless him! Having serious problems with my bum going numb right now because I’ve been sat on it so much haha. Thanks Charlotte fingers crossed tomorrow I’ll start feeling more normal! 🙂 xxxx
Oh no this is what really worries me. I have an 8 year old and although she can do alot of things for herself she can do everything. I could be quite lucky like some of you and not have hardly any pain or I could be like you unfortunate ones like you cara and be in loads of pain. Think thats whats very scary as you never really know how you are going to feel afterwards!!! Are you happy with your results though Cara. Who did you have and what size implants?xxx
Kerry I would defo recommend you have someone to help you out with your lil girl! Yeah I’m really happy I don’t regret it for a second just want to recover quickly, I hate just sitting around anyway so am feeling restless! I decided to go with a surgeon from Transform in the end after seeing a few different ones at different companies including MYA, her name is Linda Fuimara and she is so lovely and helpful and understood exactly what I wanted 🙂 I’m tiny 4″11 size 6 so I had a very small implant (220) but in my frame it still looks big! If you go over the muscle you shouldn’t feel as much pain, my implants are literally stretching my muscles which is why it hurts so much 🙁 Your right you cant predict how your going to feel afterwards so make sure you have someone to help you for the 1st 3/4 days and go for it 🙂 xxx
Hi Cara, I had no pain so I was lucky. But my discomfort peaked at about day 4 then got better. I’ve also heard others who have had loads of pain say it gets better after day 4, so I reckon you will start to feel loads better tomorrow x x x
