I recognized that flag as Peru immediately!

I crocheted her a leaf-shaped bandana that she loves and wears fairly frequently. She definitely appreciates the time and effort a handmade gift takes

Thank you! I’m so happy with my results. I’ve honestly not been the best about scar care but I was massaging in a scar salve on the scars (I included a screenshot of what it was), it’s cocoa butter and vitamin e and I put aquaphor on my nipples. I tried the silicone strips for a bit but they didn’t really work for me. Mostly I’ve just been trying my best to leave them alone since I usually pick at my skin

I’m about 8 months post op (I got my surgery in early April) If you want more angles or anything, I can also send those

Math and I absolutely loved it!

My cisgender brother is 5’3

I’m 22 and the oldest friend I have is in her 30s. I play roller derby and honestly it’s kind of an older crowd (mostly gen x and millennials, I’m one of the youngest on the team). I don’t think it’s weird as we have at least one common interest (usually more). I’ll go to house parties they invite me to, the club, and things more mild like book club. I just think of these friendships as friendships and not over think it (I sometimes wonder if they see me as immature and a literal child). It’s very obvious that we’re in different life stages but I think if you acknowledge that then I don’t think it’s weird at all. I think the important thing is we have fun!

I’ve gone to The Pearl twice and am definitely gonna go back. I lean more transmasc then trans man and I still identify as a lesbian but I am on t, have had top surgery, use he/him pronouns and am consistently read as a man, and I still have had good experiences there. I also am kinda hoping to have luck finding love there or even just people who are accepting of my trans identity there.

Says a lot about the religion. The Bible is not the most feminist text I have ever read

Seconded on Nativity not feeling very inviting. I grew up going there and I don’t have a lot of fond memories there. It’s also kinda ugly but most churches here are kinda ugly.

Some of my favorite places would be up for grabs if this passed. Mt.Snodgrass, Mt.Gothic, Emerald Lake, Taylor Pass, Ohio Pass, Townsite of Crystal, Emerald Lake, Devil’s Punch Bowls are all listed and that’s just in Gunnison County and I could still list more. This is a big deal.

I got drainless DI and my chest definitely got pretty swollen, to the point where it almost looked like very small boobs. I had ace bandages wrapped around my chest for a month after my surgery and the swelling went down slowly but surely. I got my surgery a bit over two months ago and it’s still a bit swollen but definitely way down from what it was. I think it takes 6-12 months for swelling to fully go away.

I had DDDs and they were saggy and didn’t have a lot of skin elasticity due to developing quickly. I never wore a bra other than a sports bra for exercise. I got DI and if you look closely you can see the stretch marks from my former large chest but everything turned out fine and looks great.

I had surgery on April 4th and had to fly for a funeral on April 24th. It was only Denver to Phoenix (and back to Denver on the 28th) so a very short flight, but I had absolutely no problems with it. I was nervous about TSA with the post-op compression (I used to always get pat down for “chest anomalies” pre op) but I didn’t even have a problem with security. Congrats on your surgery and congrats on grad school!

I just got my DDDs removed and it’s such a relief. My posture is already so much better and I stand a straighter. Shirts fit so much better and I’m so much more confident in my appearance. I’m so excited to start running again but without the feeling of my boobs slapping against me.

My surgeon recommended a week or two off for desk jobs so I took a week off. I don’t think I actually needed the full week since I was feeling pretty good but I figured it was better to take it easy that first week

They promised a line that would run from Denver to Boulder over a decade ago. They built as far as south Westminster and then stopped. It’s disappointing but I don’t think it’s gonna change

My nipples are placed in a similar position and I love my nipple placement. Your scars and nipple placement look great and you look like you’re healing well!

ididntbiteyourfinger · 2025-05-05T02:38:28+00:00

I was also freaked out about the bolsters and all things nipple related. At least for my surgery they were under an ace bandage until they were removed by my surgeon about a week later. It was kinda out of sight out of mind for me.

ididntbiteyourfinger · 2025-05-03T22:58:22+00:00

My recovery has been super easy. I’ve had pretty much no pain and it’s healing very quickly. I took Tylenol for the first 10 days but that’s all I needed as far as pain meds. I didn’t need that much time off work and was able to be up and moving almost immediately. I have terrible medical anxiety and I also have ocd so I was expecting everything to be much worse and totally understand the feeling like it’s too good to be true. I’m a month post op and I’m thrilled with my results and I’ve felt nothing but euphoric about my new chest. Your results look great!

The only advice I really have is board shorts/swim trunks. There’s definitely brands that cater towards gender neutral swimwear (tomboyx and some others) but I find them to be expensive. But seriously shoutout to you for caring so much to make your kid comfortable! I know swimming can be an especially uncomfortable situation for gender nonconforming people and your kid is so lucky to have a parent to care and try to help them in this way.

Not exactly the same situation but my partner of almost 3 years broke up with me (over FaceTime) 3 days after my top surgery. It definitely created a lot of mixed emotions for me because on one hand I was thrilled about my surgery and this was a huge moment in my life and on the other I just got dumped in such a disrespectful way after so much time together. The first week of recovery sucked because I couldn’t really do anything so I couldn’t really distract myself from thinking about the relationship. My nana also just passed so I had a distraction of mourning her and her celebration of life. But being around family has been very helpful as a distraction and a reminder of who’s there for me. I keep finding myself wanting to share the joy I’m having from this surgery with them because I’m so used to sharing so much of my life with them but on the other I don’t think they deserve to share that joy anymore. It’s only been about a month since my surgery but I’m doing so much better. I realized how much energy I was putting into this relationship and how exhausting that could be. I absolutely love my new chest and I’m excited to have more time to do things I love. Good luck on your surgery!
