Day 7!

Can’t believe its been a week since I’ve had my op. I thought I would feel a lot better by now but I’m still in so much pain and very very swollen. My boobs haven’t changed since day one and I’m finding every sports bra very tight and I’ve gone up x2 back sizes to what I was pre op! Currently in a 38 back and still feel it digging in at the sides! Has any one put ice packs on their boobs to help the swelling? And have you noticed a difference doing this?

Getting frustrated now as everyone seems to have such a quick recovery and I’m still in bed needing help with everything!! I had 380cc under the muscle implants. I’ve uploaded a pic day on my profile at day 1 post op.. havnt took any since as I’m currently hating them! Haha, any one found that going for walks etc aid their recovery?

Thank you 🙂 xx

Hi Hun,
I’m sorry to hear you are still feeling bad at day 7 post op. I am on day 3 post op and I’m still in bed and can’t do much myself either. Don’t feel down about it as it’s just one of them things, we all heal differently! Plus your body is getting a good rest a rest that it needs to recover. You will be up and about again before you know it I’m sure xxx

Hey, I’m 3 days PO and in absolute agony so your not alone. This is my second BA and the first time I had 375cc over the muscle, it was a breeze. However this time round I had my original inplants removed and replaced with 350cc unders, so not really any difference in size but oh my god I really underestimated how much unders hurt. I also hate the look of them so far but my surgeon said I have to give it 3-6 months for everything to settle. Hope your recovery goes well xxx

Thanks girls! That’s reassuring to know! Wish I was allowed overs ! Haha! Hopefully will all be worth it in the end 🙂 just need this swelling to go! Xx

I am so glad you wrote this I thought I was the only one! I’m also 7 days post op and the shooting pains are so bad atm and it takes so much effort to do anything! Every morning I just hope it’s going to be the day I feel normal again, I had 350 unders so guessing us unders really do have a longer recovery x

Ahh @lydia it’s so good to know I’m not alone! Lol. I know I have Terible shooting pains all across my one side and then my other side is throbbing and aching! Getting out of bed is the worst I dread getting up in the mornings! Hope things improve for us soon xx

I know that really is the worse thing getting out of bed it takes me ages to brave it! I’m back to work on Tuesday I’ve got a feeling I’ll need a snooze by lunch time
