4 weeks after surgery

May 30th, 2013

I am officially allowed to start lower body exercise this week, but am not going to do it, I decide.
Even though I am pining to go to the gym, I purposely avoid it, as I know I’ll be tempted to over do it.
My breasts are feeling better and better, they are so beautiful and natural, I can’t believe it.
I have been working more and my movement is fine.There is still a slight sensitivity in my nipples, which
has been there from day 1, but that’s all apparently normal.
Who would have thought that breast surgery would be so easy?
I went bra shopping today and found some great bras from Loveable.
They are the nicest ones, as they are completely wire free, but still cute.
I’m very comfortable wearing one and was so excited in the store.
I have gone from a 10 (small) A, to a 12 C. My breasts look like a full B to small C, which is
exactly what I wanted, but they are measuring slightly bigger in a bra.
Every style of bra gives you a different size, but I’m stoked with being a C cup.
I remember now obsessing over sizes and searching endlessly on different sites to see what other people
did. I looked at more before and after boob shots that anyone, I think.
The only thing I can say about size is to just trust your surgeon. Dr. Rastogi is amazing and he knows exactly
what they are going to look like on you. I had trouble visualizing the implants held up to the outside of my body, but he knew exactly what they’d be. I would advise, try not to look at too many different sites.
What helped me the most, was to look at pictures on Google Images of women with similar builds to mine
and save those images to my phone. My breast inspirations came from Nicole Richie, Kate Hudson, Cameron Diaz, Brandi Glanville and Sarah Mutch (Guess and Men’s Style shots).
I’m over the moon with my size, because I trusted Dr Rastogi and he got it 100% right for me!

3 weeks after surgery

May 23rd, 2013

I feel awesome again and the tightness in my chest has subsided. The swelling has gone down quite a bit and my breasts seem to have settled in…they are liking their new home!
It has been good to take it easy this past week.
I've been sleeping really well and feel as though my breasts are really part of me. The funny thing is, even from the first day of my surgery, they have never felt like not mine. I was worried that they would feel like 2 foreign objects attached to me, but that hasn't been the case at all. I’m over the moon at how they look and can’t stop cupping my breasts…they feel so natural. I’m still wearing just a singlet top, but am able to start
wearing a soft bra…I may go bra shopping today?
