Bra or Sport Bra 3months after Breast Lift (no augmentation) ?
There was dehiscence (wound breakdown) about two weeks after stitches removed...but now all is completely closed!
I'm tired of front-closing sport bra (bought two) and just invested in several "sport bra over-the-head" (similar to a half tank top that covers the boobs with a wide band at the bottom but in Israel it is not officially called a sport bra) as they are so much cheaper and more convenient to sleep in. They are a Lycra-blend with a cotton panel in front.
I used to wear the equivalent of 38-40D/DD but now I think I am a 36-38B/C.
My boobies went from hanging sausages to little bumps-which I enjoy very much.
What did any of you ladies do in a similar situation as mine-bras or a sport bra?
Obviously I will ask (asked about wearing part-time around the home) my PS if possible to wear all the time or if just preferable for home and sleeping.

I hope my PS sees my email and answers.he is out of the country (Israel) for the month of October...
Strange is that I have a "give away for free/small donation" bras collection but they are in large sizes and I am now teeny (oh I love it!) compared to how I looked before.

I went into a regular bra at 3mo during the day and a sports bra at night. Most of the time, I still wear a sports bra at night, and I'm almost 22mo out.

I don't remember what Dr S, guess I'll have to ask him in Jan! Generally, I'm in my abdominal garment at night and the sports bra just works with the compression garment.

I can wear the sports bra BUT preferable to wear a bra so I'll go back to front-closing sports bra for during the day and over-the-head bra for hanging out at home and at night.
I still wish I could have further Plastics but I seem to be a PS's nightmare with dehiscence and no understandable cause for it. My HMO will not allow/pay for me to do the lymphascintography that the other PS requested...
I guess I'll have to learn to accept what I do have while still hoping for what I don't.
I have not given up but am trying to face my reality.
