Hi x I don’t have kids so cant help with that. I am 7 DPO and have some photos on my profile if you want to add me as a friend. Whether you have strapping etc will depend on your surgeon. I had Mr Traynor and her doesn’t use drains, strapping or breast bands. I was woken up from surgery still groggy and the nurse let me have a peek before helping me to put my bra on. I didn’t feel confident to take the bra off until day 2 and then I needed to freshen up so changed it. As a lot of people have said on here they change a lot. I hated them when I first saw them on day 2 and I think is quite common. They pointed in different directions but now on day 7 they have changed and settled so much already.
I am a nurse and I have taken 2 weeks off. My surgeon told me not to drive for 2 weeks and most insurers don’t cover you for 2 weeks so can you get to work without driving? Also I think at day 7 I qould be able to do desk work but would struggle with turning patients or moving equipment. I had unders which takes a little more recovery. I believe overs can be a little easier what are you having?
I measured a B/C cup at M&S pre op but my surgeon told me I was an A cup. I had 350cc under and I expect to be a dd. This can depend on your height, weight, rib structure etc so not everyone gets the same result from the same implant.
