Hey! I am feeling ok I have just been lounging around the house for the last few days. I only had to take the pain meds the first day home and one early this morning. I am trying not to take them, unless I really need them, because they make me feel too loopy.
The surgery went well and I am really, really, really happy with the results so far! The size is good and I think I could have even gone bigger! Prior to my surgery I was torn between two different sizes and I am happy I went with the larger implants. Not that many people know about implant sizing but incase anyone is wondering I went with 300cc High Profile Silicone Under the Muscle implants.
I am really pleased with my Plastic Surgeon, I have looked through thousands of photographs of implants and most people look scary once they come out of surgery but I think I look great considering the circumstances. Sometimes the muscle can really freak out and contract against the implant and hold them up high, but so far my implants are sitting low, in a somewhat natural position. The swelling is there but nothing unexpected.
In a month or two I should be able to shop for new bras. It takes some time for the muscle to relax and allow the implant to drop and fluff out. So I should be a tad bigger when all is said and done that I am now. I tried on my mom's 34C bra this morning and it fit, a little tight, but it fit. So maybe I will end up a 34D. A 34D sounds HUGE, but really it's not! I would be ok with being at 34D since I love the shape of the implants so much. They look very natural and not like porn star boobs at all. With clothes on it is virtually impossible to tell I have implants. I look the same as I did with padded bras on.
I know this is a weird thing to share, but I have started a private album of before, after and progression photographs. Again, I know it's weird but if anyone is considering implants or would like to see the progression let me know and I will PM you the link. I can't begin to tell you how much looking at other people's albums helped me. It really gave me a realistic expectation of surgery. Is this a weird thing to offer? Ha, maybe it is because I am still feeling the effects of my percocet this morning, LOL.
Anyway, thanks for checking in! I am feeling good and can't wait to buy new clothes, bras and bathing suits!
