3+ weeks post-op

Yesterday was three weeks since my surgery.  I only have 3 more days in the bra (or up to 10 more if I feel like torturing myself. HA!)  Seriously, I know the bra is helping the implants drop so I will probably keep wearing it at night and when I am at home for another week or two.  I do believe in following the doctor's orders to get the best results possible!  I would not go through all of this and then not do exactly what he says!  I definitely will not wear the bra out anymore though after this Friday!!!  It is so hard to hide under clothes and I am sick of wearing the same things every other day.  After taking some pics this morning, I thought they looked much better than the last pics I took.  I have been doing the massage exercises for about 2 weeks.  At first it was painful to do so I could only do it for a few minutes a day.  Now, I try and do it for an hour or so everyday.  They do seem to be softening up and hopefully dropping little by little.  It is so hard to tell.  I do notice the small aches and pains now that the big pains are gone.  I had a pain in my right breast near my armpit for awhile.  I think I might have stretched the muscle too much.  My incisions have been slightly painful off and on and they are kind of hard underneath.  I am guessing because of the scar tissue.  Some days the bra totally irritates my skin and other days it feels fine. 

Another strange sensation that I have noticed is the tightness of my chest muscles.  If I am cold especially, my boobs will get really tight.  It is the weirdest thing and hopefully the muscles will get accustomed to being stretched out and loosen up soon.  The next time I blog, I will be out of the bra (I hope) and wearing all sorts of cute clothes!
