    Hey girls well one week post op, and i cant believe how quickly it has gone. Just wanted to check a couple of things is this normal after BA one week post op-

    Achy tender to touch boobs, the odd shooty pain (not enough to take meds for)
    Numbness in part of the breast not all
    Numbness in one nipple
    Rock hard

    Any advice welcome , strapping off tomorrow!!!! Can’t wait!!!

    I had my second ba 4 days so. It’s funny because although I’ve been through it all before I have kinda forgot what to expect and forgot what the healing is like. If I think back though everything you have described I experienced too. Numbness is very very common and takes time to subside in some cases women experience numbness in both nipples that can last months but you’re only a week after your op so that’s fine! I’m 4 days after and both of mine still have no feeling.

    They will be rock hard for quite a few weeks really. After 6 weeks you can start wearing normal bras but they still won’t be ‘settled’ into where they want to be. Each week they will soften up more and more and after a few months they’ll feel nice to touch!

    Pains are normal too after all we’ve just cut a hole in our body and put a foreign body so it’s just our bodies way of recovering and getting used to it.

    I wouldn’t worry you seem to be healing totally normal!
