10 years2long · 08-20-2009, 12:53 AM

is anyone else not able to push there boobs together? i feel like they're so far apart and everyone i see has more cleavage. will pushing them help or will they always be this way. i'll be 6 months post op next month.

I can't yet but I feel that's probably as I'm only 3 weeks but I didn't know that it maybe a permanent thing for some ladies. Have you had saline or silicone? Did massaging help? Did you ask your PS why you can't push them together? Hope you get some answers

This depends on your stats and what size your implants are. After 6 months I would imagine they are soft and can easily be pushed together - IDK...

I am two weeks and have been able to push mine together for a few days now. Now I just want to find a bra that does it for me!!

LittleNOLA · 08-20-2009, 03:53 PM

I'm three weeks out & can actually push mine together now, but not very comfortably. They're still pretty firm & i can't imagine wearing a bra all day that does it for me at this point lol.
Give urself some time to let your muscles relax & start to heal, I'm sure you'll be showing off cleavage soon

i'm 6 weeks out and can't push mine together, either. i'm hoping that changes with time..... *sigh*

firmandhappy · 08-20-2009, 04:40 PM

I could push mine together from the beginning. I think some of it has to do with the shape of your breast to begin with. Also the type of implants you have. Mine are HP so they protrude more. If you are still shiny and firm you need to d&f. Remember it can take up to 6 months or more. Once you do that I think it would help a bit. Hope you get the results you are looking for.

Oh girl I feel your pain! Before my redo I had no cleavage even with a good bra! I would think at 6 months they should be about done with any major changes, but like someone else said if they are still shiny, tight or firm then you may be able to push them together when they soften up. Another possibility is they are too narrow for your body. What does your ps say? Good luck on the cleavage quest

Im two weeks out and probably a week out I could push them together. They aren't far apart at all..I think the implant's being HP probably helps ...not sure though..

trinandgabesmom · 08-20-2009, 08:09 PM

Tomorrow I will be 5 wks. post-op and I have lots of sideboob in my opinion. It takes a lot of pushing them in w/my arms to get a decent amount of cleavage and even w/that they are not tight together, there is still a lil space between them. I know I need to D&F more, so maybe that will help create easier-to-achieve cleavage. I can only hope! Good Luck getting the cleavage you desire!

haphaphappy · 08-20-2009, 08:16 PM

at 3 months mine are very far apart and even a bra won't bring them closer...i have that side boob thing going on too. but on the right i have a muscle that won't let that one drop and fluff...it's pushing it off to the side and that isn't going to get better on its own...

we will have to have a redo...but i guess there's risk in anything we do like this...i'm not happy with this, but as time goes by i'm getting used to what i have...maybe it's just getting used to the change and our pre-op expectations that can be the most difficult...i don't know that all of our outcomes are exactly what we imagined...but in time maybe we get used to what we have?

best wishes to you!

jaynoel · 08-20-2009, 08:18 PM

Im 16 days post op and i am able to push them together. At first i couldnt but once i got the strap and wore it consistently for a couple days, I am able to push them together with no problem. I am still wearing the strap.

10 years2long · 08-21-2009, 12:40 AM

my next follow up is in sept. and i will ask about it then. more of the waiting game. thanks girl! for now i'm going to try sleeping with a really tight sportsbra. wish me luck

redheadthespian · 08-21-2009, 10:04 AM

good luck! let us know what your ps says.

i saw my ps yesterday and was told the reason i still can push mine together is because my skin needs to stretch more--it's VERY tight because i've never had boobs or babies so it's never been stretched before at all. i was told it would probably take another 2-3 months or so for the skin to stretch.

do you think your skin is just still tight?

10 years2long · 08-23-2009, 02:39 PM

no i actually nursed 2 kids and had a lift. i'm wondering if they're just too far apart or need to drop a little more. not sure
