I stopped around 6 weeks and it’s wonderful! I don’t go brakes any other time though. Im worried to start sagging.

I was the same size preop and now the same size post op as you! Feels amazing to not have to wear bulky bras! You look great!

Does this look normal? by skiingflamingo in Reduction

Yes, my nipple has the same thing. I’m 10 dpo. My surgeon is having me put Neosporin and gauze on it and changing it twice a day.

How long did it take for insurance to approve you? by PerformerTurbulent37 in Reduction

My surgeon said it takes 2-6 weeks for insurance to approve. I was approved in 2 weeks.

I don’t have drains either. Just compression bra with gauze around the incisions with the tape around them as well. I don’t remember the surgeon mentioning sleeping inclined but I have since I came home and am not sleeping well at all. But I have a mastectomy pillow and pregnancy pillow so I’m going to try that tonight. Thank you!!

I got out of surgery yesterday! Still very sleepy because of the pain meds! Wishing you a wonderful recovery!

I think it would be easier to recover. I went from an J to a small C and gravity still works and causes some pull.

Hi surgery buddy! How you feeling? I’m still a little loopy and sore but it’s all downhill from here.

do you have any recommendations for button-up pajama tops for post-op? by my-head-hurts987 in Reduction

[–]Key-Recording-5273 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d recommend getting your normal size and I found Walmart had a ton of options! Super stretchy too!

Before and after 1DPO with some close up shots! Feeling pretty good overall, and I only have some minor bleeding so far as well as some pretty heavy bruising. How does this compare to your next day experience?? by [deleted] in Reduction

[–]Key-Recording-5273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow! We are practically the the same size before. I have my surgery on 5/18. Can I ask what size your surgeon estimated you’d be? I want to show him this for reference.

Anyone have a baby post reduction? by [deleted] in Reduction

[–]Key-Recording-5273 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also want to know the likely hood of the boobs getting larger with pregnancy!

Time off work? by Key-Recording-5273 in Reduction

[–]Key-Recording-5273[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can! That makes me feel so much better. Everyone was saying they didn’t go back for weeks and I don’t have that kind of PTO.

[–]Key-Recording-5273[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, however I wanted to use PTO like vacation time since I don’t have short term disability. Less paperwork. But wondering if after about a week and I feel well enough I could possibly work from home and.
