My Breast Lift and B/A was done on 3-11. Feeling so much better now. The week plus weekends on both sides of surgery was much needed. Back to work today, but doing  my best not to over do. Excited to look and feel good again!

Congratulations!  Glad you are feeling better.  I'll be doing BL & BA with TT next month.  How swollen are you?  Can you wear a normal bra yet?

Good luck on your recovery!

Hi, as of yet...I still am in a sports bra. I have my 2 week check next Tues hope to move into a normal bra by then. I "think" I am still swollen, but don't know for sure...it may just be the newbies! And what they look like, heck....since I was so flat after my weight loss I don't have a clue.....! :) good luck!!! Keep me posted on how you do!

Glad to hear that!  It will just keep getting better - be careful not to lift and pull down anything... mine has finally healed (internally) from internal tearing a few times from doing that. 

Went to Zumba for the first time this week since my BL/BA... Monday I had to leave early because the bouncing around didn't feel so good... last night I wore an "old" sports bra and that held them in place nicely - no issues.... 

I'm loving the look of my new bewbies - even all smashed down... one of the ladies goes "wow - you look great!"... yes, she knew I had it done.... then my zumba instructor said she would like to get a lift... funny how we think people will be judgemental, then when we do it and not really hide it, they tell us they want it too....

Jody, when did you sleep with out a bra??? I still am sore when I lay flat! When can I try a normal bra (w/o underwires of course)???

Thanks!

I'd say it was a good month before I slept without a bra....  There are days when I get up I still hold onto them - seems they need to "get into place".  Think that will happen for awhle.  One moreso than the other. 

I think I was wearing a normal bra at 5-6 weeks....  my old ones with underwires hurt... I love this one by VS.  Its a size bigger in the band than normal, but it keeps it from resting on my incisions.
