Red face 3 days post op and doing great!

Well my BA was on Thursday and life is good...except for the frankenboob! I have been up and moving. I went shopping for some new tops to disquise the frankenboob for work...nothing hides except jackets that are too big for me. I am a teacher and students come back to school tomorrow! I am feeling great though. I went to church this morning and my husband changed my gauze and tape today...it got wet in the shower. I am sore, tight and itchy, but other than that, I am good.

I have absolutely NO cleavage, and have oblong boobs. They are high and hard at the top and then my real breast tissue at the bottom is not filled in with implant yet. I assume this will happen with d & f. It better or I will look like a freak forever! Haha. I had a bit of sagging prior to BA because of major weight loss. i have some wierd looking boobies right now. Let me know if you had similar experience, and if you have pictures of your boobie journey for encouragement, I would love to see!

Congrats on the BA and really glad to hear that you're feeling good. Don't worry about the frankenboob. You still have sooo many changes that are going to occur. I had it on my left boob until about the 1 month mark. I really thought I was gonna hate my boobs but now that they have finally started to settle it's the complete opposite. I LOVE my boobies! And I'm sure you will too. Hang in there, it definitely gets better! =)

Congrats! Good luck on recovery. I am almost 13 days PO already, and am back to "normal".

Wanted to let you know based on your descriptions, my boobs look almost totally the same. Very little on the bottom (mostly my normal tissue) and the implant is still high and hard. I did notice some dropping though (very tiny amount in 2 weeks of course), and some extra softness. So, I guess you're "normal" as far as your frankenboob and I'm glad to hear it sounds similar to mine....

I'm excited to get back to wearing my clothes agian, it's been all tshirts for me too. And I also still have no cleavage, bc they arent squishy and yet so hard

My PS said not to do any major shopping till Oct...

Anyway, wanted to let you know your frankenboob is normal and will get better....which I am also waiting for!
