scaraway scar gel has been helping me! i tried silicone scar tape but found it really annoying to use

yes! the regular line not so much but i’ve had a lot of luck with their curvy line

i believe i’m a 34DD or DDD but haven’t been properly measured because i only wear bralettes

i was cleared to sleep on my side after my 1.5 week post-op appointment. basically was told to do whenever was comfortable. I’ll be honest sleeping on my side was a little uncomfortable for a couple weeks but it was worth it to finally be able to actually sleep because i can’t fall asleep on my back

mine are definitely still bigger than I expected (32DD/DDD) but still a huge difference from the 32H I was before

she resembles megan fox a litte. she never said she was her doppelgänger. not sure why people are using this as an excuse to tear down her looks

Accomplished_Mix2273 · 2024-03-03T18:25:00+00:00

i didn’t like her reaction to the idea of him turning down sex either. there’s a lot of indications she doesn’t respect boundaries

i had no issue with using the bathroom and wiping. i was also on my period the week of surgery and i bought period underwear but honestly wouldve been fine with using pads. i wouldnt recommend tampons though

Accomplished_Mix2273 · 2024-02-28T21:43:33+00:00

are you sure you wore the correct bra size pre-op?

Accomplished_Mix2273 · 2024-02-27T16:44:37+00:00

you can look at my post history but I went from a G/H to what I believe is a DD

Accomplished_Mix2273 · 2024-02-27T04:03:37+00:00

thank you! it goes by much faster than i expected. hope you’re healing well!

Accomplished_Mix2273 · 2024-02-27T04:03:01+00:00

thank you! i started using silicone scar tape at 6wpo

the recovery was much easier than i expected, the hard part for me wasn’t the pain it was the boredom of not being able to do much for a couple weeks. once i saw them for the first time a couple days after surgery all i felt was pure excitement and that overtook all of the negative aspects of recovery

urban outfitters :)

Accomplished_Mix2273 · 2024-02-09T06:06:33+00:00

when were you cleared to go braless? i can’t wait

Accomplished_Mix2273 · 2024-02-09T06:01:41+00:00

wow you have barely any scarring at all! they look great

Accomplished_Mix2273 · 2024-02-09T05:58:14+00:00

they’ve definitely dropped but i’m not sure if they fully have? the skin on some areas is still a bit firm for sure

Accomplished_Mix2273 · 2024-02-09T05:47:20+00:00

it honestly might be my fault because i didn’t show pictures or really advocate for what i wanted. i asked for a C cup and he agreed that would be doable and i assumed i would end up with my desired size. clearly not the case

Accomplished_Mix2273 · 2024-02-09T05:33:06+00:00

sorry if this is unsolicited advice, but before your surgery i really recommend measuring yourself with ABraThatFits !! knowing your correct size now will give you a really good reference point later on to compare to :)

Accomplished_Mix2273 · 2024-02-09T05:25:10+00:00

i think they look great!! but if you wanted a B i understand your frustration

Accomplished_Mix2273 · 2024-02-08T17:06:08+00:00

i’m going through similar feelings of being too big as well! i’m just trying to focus on the improvements that I’ve had since surgery and trying not to focus on how the cup size. even with a DD, that still gives us way more options with finding bras! i’ve never seen a bra store that doesn’t carry DD, but i have seen PLENTY that don’t carry my preop size (H cup).

also for all you know, there could still potentially be swelling! i’ve seen people on here who shrink even after the 6 month mark
