    Aww Cherry…hope you cope at work ok. I’m not looking forward to going back after i have mine. I’m a dog groomer so alot of lifting, very physical job just brushing a big dog makes your arm ache!! I’m wondering whether i will take longer to heal as well as i know people say the arm they use more takes longer, my right arm is stupidly strong from doing this job for 7 years, dread to think what my chest muscle is like, hope it doesn’t hold the implant down too tight lol!! Has anyone found that that happens? xx

    You won’t be able to lift anything heavy prob until 3 weeks!whatever you do don’t push yourself to lift things as u dnt want to ruin your new boobs!!!
