The girls are coming along just great!

Hi guys, I have not blogged in a while. Sorry about that!

I have thought to do so many times but I have nothing new to tell you guys.

The girls are still doing just great. I've been sleeping braless for weeks now.

I ran 2 miles a few nights ago- I know- pretty lame but I am just taking it easy.

I am no longer having those awful shooting pains in my chest- that was the worst thing of everything I went through.

I have had so many ladies complement me on how they look- incl the friends who have had the surgery and who recommended them.

My best friend, let's call her Andy, won't stop staring at them though. You won't believe how many times she's seen them and still stares at them! She's worse than a guy.

Anyways, I'll update some pics soon but so far I think they still lool the same.

Dreaming perhaps?

I'm not sure if I was dreaming this or what but I remember something about burning pains in my breast last night. Almost like shooting pains I guess.

Weird thing is that I don't remember whether I was dreaming about it or actually experiencing it.

Oh well, either way, I hear it's normal.

Yesterday I noticed stretch marks on the side of my breasts- something I was anticipating but of course I just thought- "darn it".

Ps. "Special time" with your husband is a great time for boob massaging. Especially when you get a full body massage...

A photo update: Day 16

We are getting there, slowly but surely. I spoke with a friend of mine who had her breasts done too and also has silicone. She said that you only really get to appreciate the softness somewhere between 4-6 months.

That being said, they are already feeling really soft to me so any improvement is an added bonus I guess.

Day 15: Sensitive and itchy!

So, knock on wood, the burning has eased up and I am now so itchy I can pull my nipples off!

So yes, every day is a better day. I guess.

Sleeping at night is improving but the boobs still hurt as I am dying to sleep on my side. Guess that might take a couple of more weeks.

Did I mention my scars seem to be doing OK. The funny thing is that I can't see them because I can't see underneath my breasts. Odd but expected.

I lost 5 pounds before surgery, by accident, and I'm hoping to gain that back and more over the next few months. In regard to my weight, it causes you to see wrinkling on the side when you lean all the way over. Pretty weird looking but that's only when I'm braless.

I do think they have been changing a bit because they look smaller to me suddenly. Not disappointingly smaller though. I'm kind of pleased because I felt I could've gone a few cc's smaller. But maybe they are not smaller and just adjusting in shape? As they should.

Every time I walk past my husband, who is yet to get over them, he says: OMG. Look at you! Do you know how nice it is to hear that when you look your worst wearing nothing more than a stained tshirt and shorts?

Almost 2 weeks post-op

OMG I am sooo sorry for disappearing! I was on holiday where internet connections are like urban myths.

First of all, the girls are doing great. I think at least :)

I admit I've been really bad. I'm not massaging frequently enough. Some days not at all.

They are changing though- promise to post some pics soon.

I'm having a hard day, let me tell you, for some reason they feel like they burn when I touch them or when my clothes rub against them. It's just killing me. I hear it's because of my nerves recovering. Which is a good sign. I am just hoping the burning stops soon.

Just to quickly recap over the last week and a half:
I pretty much stopped my painkillers (tylenol) a week after surgery. The only thing that was hard was the fact that sleeping was pretty painful. I would get such awful feelings of pressure. I'm guessing because I wasn't moving and everything would get stiff.

Another thing that sucks is that I still can't snuggle at night or sleep on my side. Ugh. Guess how annoying that is.

I was suppose to have my stitches removed but I just had the hardest time getting away from work. So I had my husband (don't worry he's a surgeon) remove it. It took 2min. I am however going back to have them just check things out to check for capsular contraction/ how my scar is healing etc.

I'll keep you guys posted!
Thanks for the love :)

When bra's are hard to find...

I heard that it would be hard to find bra's in my size but geeze, I didn't expect it to be this hard.

All my VSecret gift cards are going to have to be put to online purchases I'm afraid. Apparently 32D is not a size they carry in any of their stores. Ugh.

What really annoyed me was that they are so desperate for sales that they even wanted to put me in a 34C as an alternative. How about, "no". I rather want a bra that fits perfectly!

So some disappointment later I went to Macy's and settled for some Calvin Klein bra's. I found the prettiest pink one. Plus did you know how comfortable a wireless, non-padded bra is? I only got 2 as I am concerned my size might go down with the swelling and I might as well get by with a couple for another few weeks or so.

Did I mention how great I am feeling today. I have hardly used any tylenol but I did however get tired in my arms after several hours of shopping.

I can't wait to see the "final" result.

Sleeping still sucks

Last night was a little tough. I still had some stabbing pains in my chest- which I hear is normal. I'm having it in my left implant side. The problem with sleeping is that I have found it to be hard because your body is still for so long so it feels as if the muscles are tightning up, so when you wake or move its just an awful feeling of pressure perssing down on you.

Last night was my first night without vicodin so maybe that made it a little harder too. I feel so much more refreshed and "conscious" today. I am also now only taking extra strength tylenol every 6hours. So I'm sleeping longer without having to wake. my next dose is as 10a.

My mood yesterday was irretated because I was just so uncomfortable. I must of had been awake for 3hours during the day. I was just soooo tired.

I am hoping to go see WallE today if I feel rested enough. I'm craving movie theater popcorn and something funny!

So I'm still in my PJ's, but here are some pictures that I took like 3 min after I woke. They are still a little rectangular in the shape between my breasts but that is normal. Do ou know what's nice? My tank top actually fits!

Ugh, it's time for a boob massage. Not the most fun activity at this point.

PS. I think they look pretty nice for 3 days post op. Especially if you consider how much more they will change over the next 6 weeks minimum.

MPP, i'm hoping for playboy boobies too!
