Removing bra to take a peek?

I see some people on here have been able to take a picture and a look at their new boobs post surgery.
I was told I couldn’t remove my bra until my one week post opp appointment so I havnt seen them yet.
Will it be ok to unzip my bra and have a quick look or do you think it’s best I leave them until the nurse does it at my appointment?
In scared I will do damage if I remove the bra ?

I wasn’t told how long to leave the bra on but I undid it and had a look yesterday (day 2) and they looked very hard! Have a little look I’m sure u will be ok. My post op isn’t until the 25th so that seems ages away xx

I’ve taken mine off only briefly to get a picture and that’s it, I’ll be keeping it on day and night for the full 6 weeks minimum x

My nurse told me 10minures here and there won’t hurt but just make sure your sat down in case it makes you dizzy xx

Thanks ladies, might try and do it later if I have enough courage to go through with it, I’m scared of how they are gonna look, daft I know! Thanks for your advice x

I did it, only for a minute though as panicked and put my bra back on, felt like they were gonna fall out ? I’m so daft!

As you can see on my before pic my nipples are not exactly pointing in the same direction, my surgeon said he would try and correct this as much as possible and they do look much better and hopefully once have settled they will even out even more. Am really happy at the brief look I got at them, they look big ??

I’m gonna jump on your thread Gem Jay, had my strapping off today and oh my life, they’re huge! I can’t wait for them to drop, very bally for my liking. As you can see very sore cleavage from the warm weather and the girls being strapped together. Nothing a little cream won’t fix.

Try again, also yours look AMAZing Gem x

I took my bra off at least 10 times a day haha! Sometimes I left it off for 30mins to an hour since the Macom hurt me. I also went out a few times during my 6 week recovery period braless for a few hours. I’m not recommending this but just letting you know not to worry too much about a little peek! x

Thanks everyone, glad I had a peak, put my mind at rest that they are ok, although hard and swollen but I expected that lol

Lucy thank you I love them. Yours look grea too, they do look big but they change so much so don’t worry if you think they too big at the moment, we have a long way to go yet x

@gem jay they look great! Undid my bra yesterday for the first time since op on Monday, at first was petrified as they felt like they were going to fall off with it but after a little while it was a welcome relief! Left it off again this morning for half an hour, feel so free! Looking very pointy and are hard but just got to be patient I guess! Hope you’re ok xx

Thank you @tracey I’m really pleased ?
I understand, i as exactly the same, like I was worried they would fall out ???
So nice to have them out even if it was only for a few minuites can’t wait until Monday for my post op check hoping to get some bra free time after that lol
I’m feeling good, no pain and I’ve cut down on the painkillers, just taking things easy and resting at home.
Mine are very hard too, it will take many weeks and we just have to be patient, although I wanna go out and buy nice bras already ?
