   I have seen lots of button up tops in H&M quite cheap, so am going 2 get a few next week, itLs meant to be a while before you can lift arms properly, especially with unders!

   Hi! I wore a normal top coming home from the hospital. The only thing that I wore that was buttoned up were my pj's! I think everyone is different though.. I had overs and they arent supposed to be as painful as having unders so that might be why...??

   i think your right ladies,i had unders, and its been very difficult putting arms up, i did get told by a friend tho that you have to try and stretch your arms up at least once a day to avoid stiffening up, but i really dont know how true that is?? xx itsquite painful ;(

    I'm one day post-op for partial unders and think I must be really lucky as I can fully lift my arms up with no pain at all. x
